FULL SHOW: Saturday's scare at the Dinner; Kimmel vs Melania.

Mark recaps the dramatic events involving the shooter at the White House Correspondents' Dinner on Saturday, which unsettled the entire room and the media. Melania Trump may have been the first to notice the incident unfolding. Afterward, President Trump spoke with WOR’s Sean Hannity, on the phone, who may have the most comprehensive coverage. The suspect’s first court appearance is scheduled for today in Federal Court. Mark interviews NY Post journalist Michael Goodwin. Michael comments on the importance of current security measures at the White House Correspondents' Dinner and similar major events, emphasizing their necessity for future safety. He questions whether the backlash against President Trump over his decisions on the war in Iran is surprising, given that previous presidents were also pressured to address Iran’s regime. Bruce Blakeman is seen as a strong contender for the New York governor’s race. Lee Zeldin nearly won in 2022 due to Governor Hochul’s missteps, but ultimately fell short. Michael believes Bruce Blakeman’s visibility at events and on the streets will be crucial for his campaign’s success. New details emerge that the suspect’s family was in contact with him before the shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner on Saturday. Mark analyzes what might have transpired. First Lady Melania Trump has responded after late-night host Jimmy Kimmel made an assassination joke about her and President Trump. The ongoing closure of the Strait of Hormuz continues to impact global oil supplies, with China, Europe, and Iran among the most affected. Mark interviews pollster John McLaughlin. John and Mark are discussing whether the apparent third assassination attempt on President Trump at the dinner could boost his poll numbers. Bruce Blakeman’s campaign for New York governor is gaining momentum, despite national polls showing Republicans trailing by four points ahead of the midterms.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
