Episode Details

A gunman burst through the doors of the White House Correspondents' Dinner and opened fire — and somehow, within hours, Democrats were calling it a hoax. Bridget Phetasy breaks down the WHCD shooting, the shooter's manifesto (which opens with "Hello everybody!"), and why his beliefs weren't fringe at all — they were garden-variety left-wing media talking points. Also: why is the left so comfortable with assassination culture, and what does Trump building a ballroom have to do with any of this?
