An armed man charged toward the ballroom where President Trump and high-level members of his administration were attending the White House Correspondents' Dinner on Saturday night.
After an exchange of gunfire with security, he was subdued, while Trump and others were whisked from the room by Secret Service.
The correspondents' dinner is an entrenched Washington institution. Seeing guests have to take cover under tables, and high-level officials shield their wives as heavily armed security officers swarmed the dais, was another jarring indicator of the insanity that has gripped our national politics.
