So it turns out the “loud noises” first reported inside the White House Correspondence Dinner were in fact gunshots, from someone looking to assassinate Trump, again…. Differing reports out there have the shooter dead, while others claim the shooter is in custody.. There were also some reports of Marco Rubio being injured at the Washington Hilton, but that isn’t confirmed anywhere yet.

Absolute CHAOS.

Absolutely disgusting what is happening at the #WHCD right now. @kaitlancollins reporting shots fired and the shooter is dead. https://t.co/OiSMyyeGtr
