周六晚间，白宫记者协会晚宴发生枪击事件后，唐纳德·特朗普总统在白宫新闻发布厅的讲台发表讲话。
枪击事件发生后，特朗普总统在周六晚间晚些时候从白宫记者协会晚宴现场被紧急撤离，随后在白宫举行了新闻发布会。
特朗普称，此次事件“特勤局和执法部门反应极其迅速”。他表示，一名特勤局特工在“极近距离”遭枪击，但当时身穿“品质极佳的防弹背心”。该特工目前状况良好。
“他精神状态非常好。我们跟他说我们爱他，”特朗普说道。

特朗普补充称，举办晚宴的华盛顿希尔顿酒店“安保并非特别到位”，并表示这凸显了建设白宫专用宴会厅的必要性。
“那里的安保要完善得多，具备无人机防御能力，还有防弹玻璃。我们需要这座宴会厅。这也是特勤局和军方都迫切要求建设这座宴会厅的原因。”
不过特朗普表示，晚宴举办的宴会厅“安保非常、非常到位”。“宴会厅当时处于封闭状态。”
“[嫌疑人]从50码外冲过来，所以他当时离宴会厅还有很远的距离，”他对记者说。
“他当时跑得很快。特工们的反应速度非常快。天呐，那些特工们，他们当时都拔枪了。等他冲到近前时，他们已经开火了。”
特朗普继续说道：“他还有很长一段路要走。那真的是第一道防线。他们成功制服了他。老实说，他们的表现极其出色。”
他表示枪手已被拘留，执法部门“正在对他进行大量讯问”。

“我的判断是，他是一名独狼式枪手，一个疯子。”
他还提及了过去两起针对他的刺杀企图。
“正如你们所知，这不是过去几年里共和国首次遭到潜在刺客的袭击，他们企图杀人。不到两年前，宾夕法尼亚州巴特勒发生过一起。你们也知道，尽管那起事件和之后几个月佛罗里达州棕榈滩的那起事件，都险些得手。”
特朗普表示，这名枪手在经过希尔顿宴会厅附近的金属探测器时携带武器，随后向特勤局人员开火，是一名“极端危险的分子”。
“我猜他住在加利福尼亚州，他就是个疯子，一个非常极端危险的人。”

特朗普早些时候表示，他将离开晚宴现场，活动将在30天内重新安排。他称自己“拼尽全力想要留下”，但执法部门出于安全防范要求他离开。
“执法部门根据协议要求我们离开现场，我们会立即照做。我将在30分钟后在白宫新闻简报室举行新闻发布会。第一夫人、副总统以及所有内阁成员都安然无恙。我们半小时后将向大家通报情况。我已经与负责此次活动的所有代表进行了沟通，我们将在30天内重新安排晚宴，”周六晚间早些时候，特朗普在Truth Social上发帖称。
“总统将在30分钟后在白宫举行新闻发布会。这不是玩笑，”白宫记者协会主席江家祺（Weijia Jiang）在事件发生后说道。她证实晚宴将改期举行。

联邦调查局告诉福克斯新闻，一名枪手闯入华盛顿希尔顿宴会厅入口附近的主金属安检区并开火。一名特勤局特工被击中防弹背心，但目前情况稳定。反恐小队已制服该威胁。福克斯新闻获悉，特勤局正在排查是否存在其他威胁，目前确认不存在其他威胁。
特勤局证实，嫌疑人已被拘留。
与会者称听到了叫喊声和枪声，多人躲到桌子下方，特勤局特工护送总统、第一夫人、内阁部长和主桌其他人员撤离房间。
特勤局特工持枪在主桌旁就位，扫视全场。
当晚早些时候，抗议者聚集在华盛顿希尔顿酒店外，目前尚不清楚这两起事件是否有关联。
弗吉尼亚州民主党众议员苏哈斯·苏布拉马尼亚姆在X平台上分享了他对事件的描述：“我刚在白宫记者协会晚宴现场。我正从大厅乘自动扶梯下来，在扶梯底部，两名持枪安保人员跑过并大喊‘当心流弹’。我和另一个人躲到一根柱子后面，然后在听到更多骚动声和警笛声时，慢慢从后门溜了出去。感谢特勤局、国会警察、华盛顿特区大都会警察局以及所有执法部门的快速响应。”
特勤局首席发言人安东尼·古列尔米在一份声明中表示：“美国特勤局与华盛顿大都会警察局合作，正在调查白宫记者协会晚宴主金属安检区附近的枪击事件。总统和第一夫人以及所有受保护人员均安然无恙。一名嫌疑人已被拘留。涉案人员的状况尚未公布，执法部门正在积极评估现场情况。”

“我当时非常担心。我听到了枪声，所有人都趴了下来，”出席晚宴的福克斯新闻主持人布雷特·拜尔说道。“几秒钟内，现场就布满了拔枪戒备的特勤局特工。”
有人看到特朗普被安保人员迅速带离房间，白宫官员告诉福克斯新闻数字频道，目前他、第一夫人和卡罗琳·利维特都安然无恙。
这场已有百年历史的晚宴首次遭遇暴力干扰。
佛罗里达州共和党众议员贾里德·莫斯科维茨感谢众议院多数党领袖史蒂夫·斯卡利斯——后者在2017年的一场棒球比赛中遭枪击身受重伤——将他护送至安全房间。
“我正在白宫记者协会晚宴现场。我要感谢执法部门、国会警察。我个人要感谢史蒂夫·斯卡利斯，他把我拉到了安全房间，”他在X平台上写道。

田纳西州共和党众议员安迪·奥格尔斯在X平台上表示，他、印第安纳州共和党众议员马林·斯塔茨曼和亚利桑那州共和党众议员阿贝·哈马德在事件发生后离开了晚宴。“为我们的国家祈祷，为我们的领导人祈祷，”他在X平台发布的视频中说道。“这段时间太疯狂了。”

President Donald Trump spoke from the podium in the White House press room on Saturday evening after shots were fired at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner.
President Donald Trump held a press conference from the White House late on Saturday evening after he was rushed from the stage of the White House Correspondents Dinner during a shooting incident.
Trump said the incident was “incredibly acted upon by Secret Service and law enforcement.” He said one Secret Service officer was shot at a “very close distance” but was wearing a “very good bulletproof vest.” The agent is in good condition.
“He has very high spirits. And we told him we love him,” Trump said.

Trump added that the Washington Hilton, which hosted the dinner, is “not a particularly secure building” and said it underscored the need for a White House ballroom.
“It’s much more secure. It’s got, it’s drone proof. It’s bulletproof glass. We need the ballroom. That’s why Secret Service, that’s why the military are demanding it.”
Trump added that the ballroom where the dinner was held, however, was “very, very secure.” “The ballroom was sealed.”
“[The suspect] charged from 50 yards away, so he was very far away from the room,” he told reporters.
” He was really moving. And the reaction time was great. Boy, those guys, they had their guns drawn literally. By the time he was there, they were shooting.”
Trump went on: “He had a long way to go. That was really a first line of defense. And they got him. And they really, you know, they acted incredibly.”
He said the shooter is in custody and law enforcement is “asking him a lot of questions.”

“My impression is that he was a lone wolf, a whack job.”
He also called to mind the past two attempts on his life.
“As you know, this is not the first time in the past couple of years that our republic has been attacked by a would-be assassin who sought to kill and Butler, Pennsylvania, less than two years ago. You know, although that story and in Palm Beach, Florida, a few months after that, we came close.”
Trump said the gunman, who opened fire on the Secret Service after passing through the magnetometers near the Hilton ballroom with a weapon, is a “very sick person.”
” I guess he lives in California, and he’s a sick person, a very sick person.”

Trump earlier said he would leave the event, which would be rescheduled in 30 days. He said he “fought like hell to stay” but law enforcement insisted he leave as a security precaution.
“Law Enforcement has requested that we leave the premises, consistent with protocol, which we will do, immediately. I will be giving a press conference in 30 minutes from the White House Press Briefing Room. The First Lady, plus the Vice President, and all Cabinet members, are in perfect condition. We will be speaking to you in a half an hour. I have spoken with all the representatives in charge of the event, and we will be rescheduling within 30 days,” Trump posted on Truth Social earlier on Saturday evening.
“The president will be having a press briefing at the White House in 30 minutes. That is not a joke,” White House Correspondents’ Association President Weijia Jiang said after the incident. She confirmed the dinner would be rescheduled.

The FBI told Fox News that a gunman stormed through the main magnetometer near the entrance of the Washington Hilton ballroom and opened fire. A Secret Service agent was hit in the vest but is in stable condition. The counter-assault team neutralized the threat. Secret Service worked to determine whether there were any other threats and determined there were not, Fox News learned.
The suspect is in custody, the Secret Service confirmed.
Attendees reported hearing shouting, shots fired and several people took cover under tables as Secret Service agents escorted the president, the first lady, Cabinet secretaries and others at the head table out of the room.
Secret Service agents moved into position at the head table with weapons drawn as they scanned the room.
Protesters had gathered outside the Washington Hilton earlier in the evening, though it is unclear whether the two events are connected.
Rep. Suhas Subramanyam, D-Va., provided his own account of the incident on X: “Was just at the White House Correspondents Dinner. I was walking down the escalators from the lobby when, at the bottom of the escalators, 2 security people with guns were running through and yelling “watch out for crossfire.” I got behind a pillar with another person then slowly snuck out a back exit while hearing more commotion and police. Thank you to Secret Service, Capitol Police, DC Metropolitan Police and all law enforcement for their quick response.”
Secret Service chief spokesperson Anthony Guglielmi said in a statement: “The U.S. Secret Service, in coordination with the Metropolitan Police Department, is investigating a shooting incident near the main magnetometer screening area at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. The president and the first lady are safe along all protectees. One individual is in custody. The condition of those involved is not yet known, and law enforcement is actively assessing the situation.”

“I was really concerned. I heard shots and everyone jumped down,” Fox News’ Bret Baier, who attended the dinner, said. “Within seconds the place was filled with Secret Service agents, guns drawn.
Trump was seen being quickly escorted out of the room by security and White House officials tell Fox News Digital both he, the First Lady and Karoline Leavitt are safe at this time.
The incident marked the first violent disruption of the dinner that dates back more than a century.
Rep. Jared Moskowitz, R-Fla., credited House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, who was shot and seriously wounded during a baseball game in 2017, with ushering him into a secure room.
“I am at the WHCD. I want to thank law enforcement, Capital police. I personally want to thank Steve Scalise who grabbed me into a secure room,” he wrote on X.

Rep. Andy Ogles, R-Tenn., said on X that he, Reps. Marlin Stutzman, R-Ind., and Abe Hamadeh, R-Ariz., had left the dinner after the incident. “Pray for our country, pray for our leaders,” he said in a video posted to X. “Crazy time.”
