Transcript of Trump Panics as Shooting Raises Major Red Flags!! New

Donald Trump is raising major red flags after this purported shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner last night at that Washington, D.C. Hilton. As soon as the, uh, shooting took place, immediately the MAGA influencers started posting things like this. Tonight is one more reason for the new White House Trump Ballroom. Thank God President Trump is building the White House Ballroom. This is why we need Trump's Ballroom. We need the White House Ballroom. All of Donald Trump's MAGA influencers immediately. I mean, within 9 minutes of the purported shooting, they started pushing that message. Then you had MAGA Mike Johnson purportedly running away from the shooting, but then immediately thereafter, the House Republican official GOP account posts the following: fight, fight, fight, with a fist emoji and an American flag. This is what they're going to do each time. Now then you had MAGA influencers posting things like this. Shooter at the White House Correspondents' Dinner. Shooter is dead. Thank you for— thank you, Secret Service. And they're taking like glam shots of themselves. I think they then deleted it, but they're doing like weird glam shots. Then you had Dana White basically glorifying what took place.

I mean, Dana White, one of Trump's top allies, they're doing the UFC fight together in a few months at the White House, apparently based on our taxpayer dollars. That's what they're spending their money on. Then Dana White's like, this was effing awesome. I took it all all in. This is effing awesome. So you're saying that a purported shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner is awesome as you're all pushing a message about building the Golden Ballroom now and how this shows we need the ballroom? And then later I'll show you Donald Trump's like, and this isn't going to deter us from our ability to win in Iran. And I'm like watching this, I'm like, what are we talking about? Could we talk about whether there were serious security breaches that took place at the White House Correspondents' Center. Can we talk about the act that actually happened? We're immediately going to build golden ballrooms, covering up for the disastrous and catastrophic war in Iran. You have Dana White, Donald Trump's like top supporter and ally. This was awesome. What, you gonna start doing the fight, fight, fight shoes again? You gonna start selling the merch?

Is that what's gonna happen today? Here's what Dana White said.

Play this clip.

Just started getting noisy.

Tables getting flipped over, guys running in with guns, and, uh, they were screaming, get down. I didn't get down. It was fucking awesome. I literally took every minute of it in and it was a pretty, pretty crazy, unique experience.

So you were on the aisle.

What exactly did you see?

We were sitting right in front of the table.

Okay.

Right in front of where the president was sitting.

Yes. And what exactly happened?

So someone got tackled or like what?

Nobody got tackled. The guys came in looking for shooters. They came toward our table. I thought the shooter was over by us or something.

So you didn't see the actual attack yourself?

Okay.

And then you had Pete Hegseth walking around the room after the incident looking like this.

Play the clip.

And then right before this all unfolded, Caroline Levitt said the following. Remember this?

Here, play this clip.

He's ready to rumble, is he not?

He is ready to rumble. I will tell you. This speech tonight will be classic Donald J. Trump. It'll be funny. It'll be entertaining. There will be some shots fired tonight in the room, so everyone should tune in. It's gonna be really great. I'm looking forward to hearing it.

I love it all.

And you wrote most of it.

You said, I can't take credit. Uh, in true Donald Trump fashion, the man puts his pen to the paper himself. So it's a lot of his own work.

And then one of the Fox correspondents was calling into Fox after the purported incident took place. and they seem to indicate that Caroline Levitt's husband was telling the Fox host who was calling in, be very careful, things are about to go down tonight. And then the phone, just like the line just like cuts off. They're like, looks like we lost the reporter. It looks like the reporter's no longer here. Watch for yourself what takes place and you be the judge.

Play this clip.

I wanna just quickly tell you, I was sitting next to Caroline Levitt, um, the press secretary's husband. Um, he was, um, one of our guests. He was seated right next to me. And right as the dinner was starting, the national anthem happened, and then he kind of leaned over and said, you know, I watch you on TV, you do a great job, you need to be very safe. And he was very serious when he said that to me. And he kind of looked around the room and he said, you know, there are some—

Sounds like we lost Aisha's audio. Phone there. And this happens, by the way, especially when you have so many people attempting to utilize the same cell service at the same time. I did want to add this while we had a moment. I was just reading—

and by the way, when Donald Trump was escorted out, when the— you know, by the way, the purported shooter never got into the actual ballroom area where the event was taking place. It was kind of outside, apparently ran through the magnometers. That's what they're saying. I mean, never actually got, you know, into the, the room itself. But then when the Secret Service was telling Donald Trump, hey, we gotta get up, you gotta get up, Donald Trump couldn't walk straight and just fell flat on his face. I'm gonna do a whole other video after this about Donald Trump's collapsing health. Watch what I'm gonna do in 90 minutes. You're gonna wanna watch the next video as well, cuz I'm gonna compare what happened here. I'm gonna talk about Butler, Pennsylvania. I'm gonna talk about how Donald Trump's never produced his medical records. I'm gonna talk about how at the press conference last night, Donald Trump started falling asleep. Um, but here's Donald Trump falling on the floor when Secret Service tells him, you know, you gotta get up now, you gotta get up now.

Play this clip.

Where is it at? Where?

There's the president. Then you had Stephen Miller, uh, like holding the chest of his pregnant girlfriend. It almost looks like he's using his pregnant girlfriend as— like, his pregnant wife, rather, sorry— as a human shield. Other weird things that were happening: we saw a lot of reporters looked like they were kind of taking wine bottles with them after the shooting. Like, after this incident took place, they all were focused on taking the wine home for themselves. That's pretty odd. Um, talking about the trending topics on social media, the big trending topics were Butler, referring to Butler, Pennsylvania. Another trending topic was staged. That was another trending topic. Um, yesterday you also had Jeanine Pirro, Donald Trump's, uh, uh, United States Attorney for Washington, DC, his top prosecutor in DC, the Fox host who's now the top prosecutor. She was ready to go and make her video. She had a selfie video ready to go within minutes. After this purported shooting. You can watch for yourself here.

Play this clip.

I'm at the Washington Hilton. I've been taken out of the main ballroom after the sound of the shots fired. The Secret Service is now in charge of this building, this hotel.

The—

I just spoke to Mayor Muriel Bowser. She is on her way and Chief Jeffrey Carroll is on his way. He will be in charge as soon as he gets here.

Then we had Erica Kirk crying and leaving while crying. You could see for yourself what took place here.

Play this clip.

I just wanna go find some change of clothes. We heard from Wolf Blitzer though, and lots of reporters like Wolf Blitzer were saying before the shooting took place, he said that there was more security at this Washington DC Hilton than Blitzer says he's ever seen in his entire career going to these White House Correspondents' Dinner events. And Blitzer's went to like decades and decades, and he said the security was very intense. So you had very intense security there, and this still happened. To me, that should be the questions that we're asking. That if we're doing real journalism, that should be the focus, not time to build a ballroom, or how courageous are you, are you so courageous, how are you able to deal with with all of these things. So no, Donald Trump is a war criminal. This doesn't impact— Donald Trump is a sexual predator. He's a war criminal. Okay, this incident doesn't change any of what are we talking about? I know the press wants to— now the White House Correspondents' Dinner, right? You know, and the press that wanted to celebrate his fascism, right? They now want to gaslight us and act like, you know, whoa, this is courageous.

This is why we were doing it. This is heroic. No, none of— stop it. Just stop it. This is a war criminal. This is a criminal regime that puts ICE and Border Patrol Gestapo in the streets to kill our people. This is a regime that's out there engaged in war crimes and horrible conduct. Anyway, here's what Wolf Blitzer was saying.

Here, play this clip.

Others involved with him and what was going on. So I'm now in the lobby of the Washington Hotel, and all the people who were inside are slowly but surely taking the escalator up and they're getting ready to leave and see if they could get a ride home one way or another. The security going into the event tonight was incredible. I had never seen security around the Washington Hilton Hotel for a White House Correspondents Association dinner or for any other major dinner as tight as it was tonight. And I've been to about 30 of these White House Correspondents Association dinners over the years that I've been with CNN, and it was just very, very, very intense. And I have no idea if there were any indications that something like this could happen, but I know that security was beefing up potentially for something, and something happened. But the, the shots were fired just outside the door to the ballroom. The shooter did not get into the ballroom, was shooting one floor up the stairs leading to the ballroom. And it was just enormously loud, difficult to, you know, to comprehend what was going on. And I'm sure we'll be learning a whole lot more about the suspect, what was going on, if there was a motive or whatever.

But when the cops saw me only a few feet away from the shooter, they threw me to the ground and, and got on top of me to protect me. And then after a few minutes, they picked me up and took me away to a secure room, the men's room, which was not very far away.

Here's— this was a tidbit from the New York Times reporter who's at the incident. I'm one of the small number of journalists traveling with the White House press pool tonight. We were in a hall just outside the ballroom when the commotion first rang out. Several things happened in quick succession. Tuxedoed agents pulled out the guns and began running toward the ballroom. White-jacketed caterers screamed and bolted for stairwells. Pandemonium reigned as top cabinet officials were evacuated. Robert Kennedy Jr. and his wife Cheryl Hines came out and were ushered into an elevator. Then Jeanine Pirro emerged. Then FBI Director Kash Patel came tearing across the hallway with two men in tow. His girlfriend was hiding in a room with another man who was holding her hand. Another man who was holding her hand. Got it. Reporters are about to be taken back into the ballroom. The show will go on, apparently. Apparently no, the show will not go on apparently. And they canceled it. And Donald Trump's like, I wanted the show to go on, but they told me we couldn't do it. So we're going to do it in 30 days. Okay, well, what's happening in 30 days?

Don't we also realize what happened yesterday as well? And by the way, Donald Trump was basically— he was giving the game away, wasn't he? I mean, here, right after this incident taking place, and I said where the, where the investigation, where the reporter should be focused on is the incident, what the hell happened? But Trump immediately uses it to say the following. He goes, this isn't going to deter me from winning the war in Iran.

Here, play this clip.

Doesn't happen to people that don't do anything. And it's not going to deter me from winning the war in Iran. I don't know if that had anything to do with— I really don't think so, based on what we know. But, uh, we're going to continue to do a great job. That's all I can do. Thank you very much.

We'll see you tomorrow. Thank Thank you.

Well, Donald, didn't you say that you already won the war in Iran, that you control the Strait of Hormuz, that American excavators are working with Iranian excavators to bring all the nuclear dust back? Didn't you say you've already done regime change and that we don't even need to be there anymore, but you're basically doing it as a favor, right? That's what you've been saying. We all know what happened yesterday, right? Yesterday there was supposed to be, based on what Donald Trump was saying, a meeting in Pakistan between the United States, between Whitkopf and Kushner, who shouldn't be representing the US at all, but set that aside for a second, and Foreign Minister Araghchi and the Iranian delegation. However, the Iranian delegation made clear that it never wanted to meet with the United States in Pakistan, that it was going to Pakistan as part of a bilateral meeting and as part of a trip that it was taking to Oman, to Pakistan, and to Russia. That's what Foreign Minister Foreign Minister Araghchi said. And then on market manipulation Friday, Donald Trump said, oh, we've been invited to have negotiations in Pakistan. On the Midas Touch Network, we've been saying that's not true.

Donald Trump is lying. He's manipulating the market again. Foreign Minister Araghchi in Iran saying, I'm just doing a 3-country tour. I'm not meeting with the United States. We're having no negotiations until the naval blockade is lifted in the United States and they stop threatening us during negotiations and they agree to the 10-point negotiating framework. And the Iranian foreign minister yesterday morning just left. Like he said, he was going to leave Pakistan and then finished his trip. And then Donald Trump immediately had to post, oh, well, I'm the one who canceled the delegation. It wasn't that Foreign Minister Araghchi just left. It was me who ultimately said that we shouldn't show up in Pakistan. No, the Iranians never were going to meet with you in the first place. That's what we've been saying here on the Midas Touch. Over and over again. So yesterday morning, before this purported shooting took place in the evening, right, Donald Trump had just been utterly humiliated and exposed for being a liar yet again. And here's what he posted in the morning yesterday: I just canceled the trip of my representatives going is Islamabad, Pakistan. What is going is representatives going is Islamabad, Pakistan to meet with the Iranians.

Too much time wasted on travel. Too much work. Besides which, there is tremendous infighting and confusion within their leadership. Nobody knows who's in charge, including them. Also, we have all the cards, they have none. If they want to talk, all they have to do is call Donald J. Trump. All complete lies. Iran from the outset said it never was going to meet with the United States, and Donald Trump lied, knowing that Iran had a meeting with Pakistan, to say that we're sending our negotiators there. So that's what happened in the So that's why Donald Trump was like, oh, you know, afterwards, this was about— I'm gonna never be deterred from my mission from Iran. And then Donald Trump started saying, one of the things that this shows, this shooting shows, is why we need a ballroom as well. This proves that we need a ballroom.

Here, play this clip.

And we looked at all of the conditions that took place tonight. And I will say, you know, it's not not a particularly secure building. And I didn't want to say this, but this is why we have to have all of the attributes of what we're planning at the White House. It's actually a larger room and it's much more secure. It's got— it's drone-proof. It's bulletproof glass.

We need the ballroom.

That's why Secret Service— that's why the military are demanding it. They've wanted the ballroom for 150 years for lots of different reasons, but today's a little bit different because today we need levels of security that probably nobody's ever seen before.

And so immediately after the shooting, you were already talking about this shows why you need to build a golden ballroom. I'll also just share this with you as well. Before Donald Trump flew back to Washington, D.C., Here's what he was saying when he was asked, well, didn't you say on Friday you were going to send Whitkopf and Kushner to Pakistan to meet with Iran? So did you just totally lie? And then he lies again, because all this guy does is— don't you understand the whole thing is a con? Every aspect of everything with this guy.

Here, play this clip.

What have you heard from Pakistan? The Iran's foreign minister was in Pakistan yesterday night.

I think the Field Marshal is fantastic. I think the Prime Minister of Pakistan is great. And, you know, they'd like to see something happen, but we're not going to be traveling 15, 16 hours to have a meeting with people that nobody ever heard of.

What changed to make you make that decision?

Too much travel. When they say the meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, I said, Tuesday? That's a long time from now. But when you get right down to it, way down to it. It's a lot of traveling. No, we don't want to do that.

What do you say, Whitcock and Kushner, and send Vice President Banzai?

What point are you ready?

They're all very confident, all three. Those are three good, but they weren't meeting with the leader of the country. They were meeting with other people. And I said, we're just not going to do too much traveling, takes too long, too expensive. I'm a very cost-conscious person.

And speaking about everything is a lie as well, NBC exclusively reported yesterday as well Iran caused more extensive damage to US military bases than publicly disclosed by CENTCOM. Trump's turned CENTCOM and our military also into total liars. US bases and equipment across the Middle East came under attack, including from an Iranian F-5, despite American air defense, and repairs could cost billions of dollars. American military bases and other equipment in the Persian Gulf region suffered extensive damage from Iranian strikes that is far worse than publicly acknowledged and is expected to cost billions of dollars to repair. According to 3 U.S. officials, 2 congressional aides, and another person familiar with the damage, the Iranian regime swiftly retaliated after the Trump administration attacked on February 28th, hitting dozens of targets across U.S. military bases in 7 Middle East countries. Those attacks struck warehouses, command headquarters, aircraft hangars, satellite communication infrastructure, runways, high-end radar systems, and dozens of aircraft, according to U.S. officials and an assessment by the American Enterprise Institute, a conservative think tank in Washington, D.C. In the initial days of the war, Iranian F-5 fighter jets bombed the U.S. base camp in Kuwait despite the base having air defenses, a rare breach that marked the first time an enemy fixed-wing aircraft had struck an American military base in years, according to two of the U.S. officials.

Also yesterday, it was being reported that Iran has another secret nuclear facility near its Isfahan facility. Facility that's even deeper underground that the United States likely hasn't even touched yet, where Iran may be capable of making 100 nuclear bombs if it enriches the uranium to weapons-grade, which at this stage, why wouldn't it do that based on its observations of how the United States is, uh, how the United States has handled negotiations or, or not handled it at all. So lots of people are saying perhaps, you know, this delay, you know, this Donald Trump delaying things 2 weeks, 2 weeks, is allowing Iran right now to create weapons-grade nuclear weapons the same way Donald Trump allowed Kim Jong-un to get nuclear weapons. And then we just don't talk about that anymore, right? Under Obama, that's all we talked about— ballistic missile tests, ballistic missile tests are happening by Kim Jong-un, that shows Obama's weakness. Donald Trump just basically allowed Kim Jong-un to get nuclear weapons. Oh, and now we're not supposed to talk about it. So why am I bringing this? Why'd I bring all of that up right now as well? Oh, by the way, I could bring up as well that Donald Trump said that he was going to give the Falkland Islands to Argentina, stripping it from UK sovereignty, and basically ignoring the whole 1982 Falkland Island War and the referendums where the Falkland Islands stated they want to be with the United Kingdom.

And now Donald Trump has created a major diplomatic issue à la Trump saying he wants to seize seize Greenland from Denmark. That's basically like Trump saying, I'm going to seize the Falkland Islands from the UK when the Falkland Islands wants to be with the UK and give it to Javier Milei, Trump's little puppet dictator in Argentina. So you have all this mess happening. And then with all that mess happening last night at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, you have this, and you have all of those things that I was just showing you where the influencers got their marching orders right away. And they were like, we need a ballroom, we need a ballroom. Look, Donald Trump, so courageous. Look, Donald Trump is going to still win Iran even though he's facing all of these assassination attempts now, right? Anyway, you tell me what you think in the comments. Hit subscribe.
