Catholic Church members were left in shock after a dove🕊️ flew and perched on a giant crucifix at the altar during a church service.

Here is:

Saudi Prince Mohammed bin Salman confirms that Barack Obama is the world’s number one sponsor of terror.

He gave Iran $150B in cash, and the IRGC didn’t even build a single street with that money.

Instead, Iran used the money to make missiles and drones, finance proxies, and arm terror organizations like Hamas, Ansar Allah, and Hezbollah. With these funds, Iran offers safe harbor to the leaders of al-Qaeda, including one of Osama bin Laden’s sons who was indoctrinated into jihadism.

———

Barack Obama was responsible for the Arab Spring in 2010—which deliberately created ISIS—toppling the Libyan government in 2011 and creating a nuclear Iran. The Obama syndicate, including his chief of staff John Brennan, Hillary Clinton, Valerie Jarrett, Victoria Nuland, Susan Rice, and Samantha Power, did so deliberately in order to keep the region destabilized and to use Iran as a buffer to prevent the Gulf states and Israel from amassing too much power. Now President Trump is undoing everything Barack Obama touched, foreign and domestic.

One man has managed to do all of that while orchestrating the single largest conspiracy in U.S. history to overthrow the United States government—and not a single investigation.

I am a senior coordinating producer for the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner. I have worked eleven of these. I was backstage at the Washington Hilton when the shots were fired.

The first thing I heard was not the gunfire. It was glass.

A champagne flute hit the floor of the International Ballroom at approximately 9:47 PM. Then a second. Then the sound that I have since been told was a 12-gauge shotgun, which from inside the ballroom sounded like a heavy door slamming in a parking garage. Then the Secret Service moved. They moved the President, the Vice President, the First Lady through the east corridor in under ninety seconds, which is protocol, which is practiced, which is the one part of the evening that worked exactly as it was designed.

Everything else was improvised.

I know this because I ordered the wine. 94 tables. Two bottles per table. 188 bottles of a Willamette Valley pinot noir that the Association selected in February after a tasting committee spent three meetings debating between Oregon and Burgundy. Oregon won. The budget was $14,200. I signed the invoice. I can tell you the vintage. I can tell you the distributor. I can tell you the per-bottle cost because I negotiated it down from $89 to $76.

What I cannot tell you is how 147 of those bottles left the building during an active shooter evacuation.

I can tell you what I saw. A correspondent from a network I will not name picked up two bottles on her way to the east exit. Full bottles. One in each hand. She was wearing heels and she did not spill. A man in a tuxedo tucked one inside his jacket the way you'd shoplift a paperback at an airport bookstore. A woman picked up a bottle, looked at the label, put it back, and took a different one.

She checked the vintage. During an evacuation. That's editorial judgment under pressure.

The theme of the dinner was "A Free Press for a Free People." The banners were still hanging when the evacuation began. I know because I hung them. Twenty-three banners, navy blue, gold serif lettering, $11,400 for the set. They were still hanging when 2,600 guests were directed to the exits by Secret Service agents, one of whom had just taken a shotgun round in his ballistic vest and walked to the ambulance on his own feet.

The agent's vest costs approximately $800. The wine that left the building was worth $11,172 at Association cost. At restaurant markup, roughly $29,000. The guests saved more in wine than the vest that saved the agent.

That's priority.

The video went viral by 10:15 PM. Not the video of the evacuation. Not the Secret Service response. The wine. Three guests in formalwear grabbing bottles off white tablecloths while being told to move toward the exits, while a man with a shotgun stood in the same motor entrance where John Hinckley shot Ronald Reagan 45 years ago.

A woman near the service entrance was crying. She said "I just wanna go home." She was not holding wine. She was holding her phone. She was the only person I saw that night who looked afraid rather than inconvenienced.

That's the distinction. The rest of the ballroom did not look afraid. They looked interrupted. An active shooter at the WHCD is a logistical problem. The dinner was disrupted. The timeline was off. The after-party at the French Ambassador's residence would need to be rescheduled. These are contingency matters. Contingency matters have solutions. Fear is for people who attend events without security details.

I have produced eleven of these dinners. I have managed seating charts that require diplomatic-grade negotiations. I have handled comedians, cabinet secretaries, network anchors, and the editor of a major newspaper who once threatened to leave because his table was behind a column.

I have never, in eleven years, seen a guest leave a $76 bottle on the table during an evacuation. I have also never seen a guest check the label first. Both observations are consistent. The bottle is worth taking. The evacuation is worth surviving. The instinct is to do both simultaneously.

188 bottles placed. 41 recovered. 147 unaccounted for. One agent shot. Zero guests injured. Zero bottles broken.

A free press for a free people. The press is free. The wine was $76 a bottle. They took it anyway.

The White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooter was armed with a shotgun, handgun, and multiple knives, according to DC police chief Jeffrey Carroll.

The shooter was identified as 31-year-old teacher Cole Allen from Torrance, California.

The suspect emerged from a "makeshift room" near the entrance, where "there was no security" near where bar carts were stored, according to the New York Post.

"He was in that room... he grabbed it out of a bag or something." The weapon "was long" and "didn’t look like a typical gun," a witness who was a volunteer at the event told the Post.

It is reportedly believed that Allen was a guest at the Hilton hotel where the dinner took place.

SHOUTOUT🚨: Shoutout this Secret Service Agent who literally sprints in front of the President and shields him with his own body.

True hero.

This is the Persian Gulf!

You see the first blockade in the narrow area? That’s the strait of Hormuz.

That’s what the terrorist Islamic regime closed to put pressure on president Trump and US to back down.

But … they refuse to see that President Trump is a 3D chess player. He closed the second area which is wider and no ship related to the terrorist Islamic regime is able to leave or enter.

This is absolutely one of the smartest moves in the modern warfare.

We give the glory to God for giving President Trump wisdom, knowledge understanding and might.

The Islamic regime never thought of this and are caught by surprise.

They literally can’t import weapons, missile fuels, they can’t sell oil.

This is like holding them by the neck. Plus because of the Islamic regime closed the strait of Hormuz, now everyone is buying expensive oil from the USA.

US oil sale jumped to 5.3 million barrels per day.

Military masterpiece from a chess master!
