Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche offered a bit of a reality check about the shooting at the White House Correspondence Dinner.

The president, he said, was not really in danger.

This man was a floor above the ballroom with hundreds of federal agents between him and the president of the United States.

The worst never came to pass.

Law enforcement did not fail.

They did exactly what they are trained to do.

Solid attorney generaling.

Then late yesterday, Blanche filed a request asking a federal judge to overturn a previous

ruling and allow President Trump to build a ballroom. Wait, what?

How did this get to be about the ballroom? Today on today explained from Vox, fallout from this

weekend's attempted assassination. The good, the bad, the weird, the conspiracies, all of it up ahead.

It's drone proof. It's bulletproof glass. We need the ballroom. If you need more evidence of why this still staged,

everyone is talking about the ballroom.

Support for the show comes from Dell.
