I would love to hear from you. Today, I am bringing back Tony Kinnett. Tony is the national

correspondent for The Daily Signal and host of the Tony Kinnett cast. And he was also at the White House

correspondence dinner on Saturday, where there was yet another attempt on President Donald Trump's

life, as well as other members of the administration in his cabinet. Tony and I talk about the

event. We talk about the attempt on Trump's life and the factors that led to this and where

the heck we go from here as a country.

All of that and so much more.

Please welcome to the show, Tony Kinnett.

Tony Kinnett, welcome back to the Kylie cast. Thanks for having me. Always good to be back.

Yeah, so great to have you. You are one of a few repeat guests we've had, but you were at the White House Correspondence dinner this week.

So had to have you back to hear about your experience.

And I will say that our editorial position of boycotting nerd prom has once again paid off.

But you were there, so I do want to hear about your experience.

I'm curious, first and foremost, about just your perspective on security, because I heard a lot of various accounts of this. Of course, everybody was sharing their own perspective on it on Twitter. I saw a good breakdown from Bill Malugian, but then I saw some other people that were saying, no, security was actually fine. So what was it like for you to get into the event? What did you see? What did you experience with that?

So first and foremost, thank you very much for congratulating me on going to nerd prom.

I was excited because I was hoping that, you know, maybe just going to be prom king and queen
