At the exact moment dozens of armed federal agents swarmed into the ballroom of the Washington Hilton, Oz Pearlman was revealing to Donald Trump the name of Karoline Leavitt’s unborn daughter.

The mentalist was perhaps moments away from climbing inside the mind of the president on Saturday night when a 31-year-old teacher from Los Angeles stormed toward the White House Correspondents’ Dinner with two guns and fired at law enforcement. Nobody was killed, and the suspect is in custody.
