Poynter: AI-enhanced video from the White House Correspondents’ dinner spread confusion online. “Some social media users seized on footage from the April 25 White House Correspondents’ Association dinner to investigate the shooting that disrupted the event, but using artificial intelligence to review the video caused more confusion, not less.”

Now this is interesting. Cole Tomas Allen has been charged with three federal crimes, including attempted assassination of the Mango Mussolini - who was in the downstairs ballroom - but the specific charge of shooting a Secret Service agent is not mentioned. #Trump #8647now #WashingtonHilton

@Nerde @Lana It looks like the only person who got shot at the #WhiteHouseCorrespondentsDinner was a #SecretService officer shot by a #police officer. It may be the case that all the gunshots were by the police, and every shot either hit a colleague or missed altogether. This is not being adequately discussed.
No wonder #ToddBlanche was being cagey and evasive about ballistics and the investigation.
When he said “When you fire a bullet, the bullet ends up somewhere — sometimes you find it, sometimes you don’t,” what he meant is, “sometimes you find it in a colleague’s vest or body, because the entire law enforcement and security operation under my leadership is grossly incompetent.”

"So we now have a situation where nobody even believes anything that these people say. Everyone is questioning literally everything."
-
"It used to be the moment something like this happened, 'Oh, we need to turn the temperature down.
Oh, we need to rally behind the president right now.' Nobody's doing that. Nobody. In fact, a vast majority of people could barely hide the fact that they wanted a different outcome."~ Jared Yates Sexton

"There is a very real unreality to it all, by which I mean a detachment from reality, especially coming from the president himself. …
The sheer volume of lies coming out of this administration over the last year is why conspiracy theories have reached bipartisan consensus. No one knows what to believe."
-
"Barring the presentation of damning evidence, it looks like there was no shooting at all (anyway not a criminal one). But the conspiracy theorists are right in a broader sense. The administration's response to a would-be assassin – and all acts of political violence – is very stagy, almost theatrical, as if made to look convincing to a TV audience."
-
"After the charging document was released in the government's case against Cole Allen, it's unclear whether any of the headlines about 'the shooting' at the White House Correspondents Dinner – or about 'the shooting suspect' – represent reality. Why? Because the affidavit does not say whether Allen fired a shot, only that a 'loud gunshot' was heard."
-
"Was there even a shooting? That's the rhetorical question some people ask when they already believe it was staged. It was fake, they say, a "false flag" intended to elicit sympathy for a Republican president who is facing a wipeout in the coming congressional elections.
But the salience of that conspiracy theory depends on one thing being incontrovertibly true – that there was an actual shooting."

"That’s the price of doing business, you could say, or it is just the price we’ve agreed to pay. While the elites mingle at garden parties, Iranian children are buried under rubble. Smile for the camera. It’s what special friends do."

"That Charles courted Trump while failing to meet Epstein’s victims – or even mention them explicitly in his speech, as had been hoped – could hardly be a clearer message of who counts and who doesn’t, of which horrors are punished and which are excused."

"How does Trump get away with bullying the media by threatening criminal action? Simple. The media allows him to. No, that’s not quite right. The media rewards him for threatening and bullying them.
Case in point: The White House Correspondents’ Dinner last Saturday, an event designed 'to ensure a free press.'”

"The most important story in Congress right now is that Republicans cannot govern even with a majority and are not focused on legislating anything voters care about. If you’re a journalist unwilling or uninterested in covering that with urgency, you’re useless."

"Trump’s presidency is a ludicrous mess. He is being humiliated daily by Iran. His threats are laughed at. He is being deserted by the MAGA idiots. The cost of living in Trumpland is through the roof. He is not just hated, he is ridiculed. He knows this, and the knowledge terrifies him, and he is reacting with all the wisdom and maturity of a cornered rat."

"The available evidence shows that Cole Tomas Allen did not fire his weapon, did not get anywhere near the ballroom, and that the agent that was hit was the victim of a friendly fire incident. But the Trump regime has deliberately suppressed information about it to build a narrative of a heroic near-miss."

"Flailing on multiple fronts, Trump is so desperate to demonstrate dominance that this afternoon, at about 3:30, the official social media account of the White House posted a picture of Trump and King Charles, who is in the U.S. on a state visit, with the caption 'TWO KINGS.'”

"There is a frenzied feeling to the news coming from the White House these days. ... There is at least one other story behind the administration’s insistence on building Trump’s ballroom: the man desperately needs a win. ...
And so, Trump and his loyalists are trying desperately to demonstrate their dominance."
