The White House Correspondents Dinner has been rescheduled because "we will not allow an act of violence to have the last word." Unclear if Trump will attend again, but if he does, the "last word" will be the unseemly sight of the press partying with an enemy of free speech.

Heard anything about any of the "failed assassins" recently? Living or dead?

This event space will have about half the capacity of the original. I wonder who gets to edit the guest list?
