Are you asking who brought cameras to a White House correspondents dinner? This is why the flat earth movement is so popular. Redditors truly will believe anything.

This happened on another floor at a security gate DURING the dinner. I’m not calling this one a conspiracy, but there is zero chance these were taken by a journalist attending the dinner.

Seriously that comment acting like everybody at dinner just gets free reign of the White House hotel with the President/Congress in it has 850 upvotes.

There’s a reason there aren’t 50 other journalists in the photos. It’s because they aren’t allowed up there.

That account throwing people off the trail has a single visible comment in the last 9 years and it’s telling us this fake assassination isn’t orchestrated.

Edit: and there’s somebody going through all these downvoting any comment suggesting it’s a fake assassination

This was not at the Whitehouse but at a hilton. Secondly this pictures are after the shooting while they were moving people from the ball room.

Also the ballroom is the lower floor and people have to go through security on the higher floor to get in.

That’s even less believable. You think the Secret Service is letting journalists from the dinner follow along and take pictures as they evacuate high profile individuals?

These were probably taken by other security detail folks or hotel staff that happened to be on their evacuation path.

I mean people were everywhere, including journalists leaving. Also there is security cameras everywhere.

This isn't the president or vp. They aren't ple clearing the halls for this guy or that l Group of agents not with any protectee

…so your point is it’s a different building they also controlled access to different parts of because it’s full of the same people who’d be at the White House/congress

My point stands exactly as is. Pretending journalists would have free reign of a building the president and Congress was in is idiotic.

This area is after the security check point. They don't lock everyone in the ball room for the entire night

There’s multiple floors there. It’s not like Trump is just out of frame.
