President Donald Trump is scheduled to speak to a smaller, more secure gathering on Friday. This event occurs as his administration increases its legal and verbal offensives against the press.
In April, a gunman attempted to disrupt the White House correspondents’ dinner, creating chaos. This incident happened three months ago, and it was seen as an assassination attempt on the president.
The president’s upcoming address is a scaled-down version of the dinner. This event comes at a time when tensions between the administration and journalists are rising.
