      "the candidate who is a famous New York City playboy took abortion rights away, and the guy who is trying to give you your abortion rights is an 80 year old Catholic. How does that make sense?"

          (Jost is from Staten Island)

          "Staten Island voted 70% for Trump in the last election. The other 30% voted for Giuliani. But then Staten Island sided with Britain during the revolutionary war, so we're not always on the right side of history. (glances at President Biden) You remember"

              Trump is appearing for the first time.

              And security just removed him...........

              No, not for anything he did but for a possible security threat.

                One Secret Service agent was shot, but unharmed due to protective gear. The First Couple were rushed out of the Dinner.

                  That's at the Hilton, the same one where Reagan was shot, right?

                          First post about it in my feed on Bluesky:

                          https://bsky.app/profile/roguearthistorian.bsky.social/post/3mkeg7fq4yk2j

                          He faked another assassination attempt? He's turning "near-death" into a multi-chapter grift. First one was theater, this one's straight fanfic. Bullets are CGI, wounds are makeup, and the only thing getting assassinated is whatever's left of his dignity. He can't even stage a decent hoax anymore.

                                    Current reporting is that the assassin wannabe intended to target Trump and his officials, and that he had an anti-Trump ideology. I don't know. I'll await further information before passing judgment. Seems just as likely that Erika Kirk was behind it, or the Trump administration itself is perpetrating yet another false flag. I'm in deep discussions with my friends on Bluesky about this - I will keep you all posted as the investigation yields more profound and shocking insights into this murky and incomprehensible situation.
