  1. Rick Reilly: "As a reporter, I'm so disappointed by the men of the White House press corps. They let Trump constantly bully women reporters. In sports, we stood up for each other. I once got into a brawl with a University Miami assistant coach over the sexist way he treated a female writer."

  10. One good idea from the Truth Tellers Conference: when Trump calls a reporter "Piggy" to her face, all of the reporters there should immediately walk out, as a sign that Trump insulting them is unacceptable, but White House reporters are too cowardly to do this. Maybe one of them could grow a spine and follow this advice.

  14. John Hinckley shot President Reagan outside this hotel 45 years ago. This does not make him an expert on either the hotel or Secret Service protocols. Nevertheless, here is The Hill treating Hinckley as a subject expert. He has nothing particularly helpful to say — and why would he?

  18. “Adopting Trump’s Voice” [IOW #Trump dictated the DOJ’s filing] #DOJ Asks Judge to Let #Ballroom Proceed

    The court filing links the security breach at the #WHCD to the lawsuit over Trump’s ballroom project.

    [problematically for this argument is that the WHCD CANNOT be held at the White House — idiots! -- the #WHCA is a #PrivateOrganization, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. And the White House has NEVER been rented out for private events.]

  23. Jon Stewart explained the theme of this year's White House Correspondents' Association dinner: "Let's hold a dinner where the free press is celebrating an Administration that's doing everything in its power to destroy it."

    Jon Stewart continued: "The White House Correspondents' Association dinner was supposed to be an evening of fun and merriment until, as most things in America, it was interrupted by gun fire."

  27. A point that went unobserved in discussion about the #StagedAssassination at the Hilton is the press corps allowed itself to be unwitting stooges to Trump’s machinations. #WHCD #WHCA #CorrespondentDinner #ballroom

  28. The grift never stops. The White House Correspondence Dinner had ~2600 guests. President Trump’s White House Ballroom will have a capacity of 1000 guests.

    This isn’t a governmental event, and it wouldn’t be held at the WH either way. Ignoring that, the ballroom isn’t even a viable venue for the event!

  33. Steve Herman: “I have a few suggestions: Get rid of the entertainers, limit the appearance of US presidents to those already out of office who can sit at the round tables and mingle with aspiring presidential candidates. Put the award recipients, including the scholarship winners, at the head table. Create a new award honoring the past year’s top defenders of free speech.”
