WASHINGTON — Duck, cover, and grab the wine!

A woman was caught on camera blissfully snatching bottles of wine during the chaotic aftermath of the shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner.

While throngs of reporters and other guests fled the Washington Hilton ballroom, an unknown blond woman wearing posh black fur went straight for a table to stockpile booze.

Because the shooting took place early, during the salad portion of the marquee dinner, there was an abundance of wine left abandoned at tables across the ballroom.

The woman’s identity is not immediately clear, and it’s not apparent whether she was a journalist or some other guest.

“Considering what was going on, she didn’t seem concerned in the least.”

And the CAA guy continuing to chomp on his salad.

It’s almost like they knew what was gonna happen, and knew for sure THEY would be safe.

Did she have her elbow on the table? Maybe it was this person:

She’s going through a stressful situation at that moment and needs a stress relaxer. Wine does the trick! It’s better than the box wine she has at home.

In this day and age it is impossible to not be identified...especially in a setting like that.

Amen.

One other comment about security at the event, any one could have driven a van full of explosives into the garage directly under the ball room, as one of the Fox newsman said he did {without a bomb}.

He said no one checked him or even looked into the van.

What the good are 100 SS Agents running around with guns {they never even hit the perp from 20 feet} if they never check the vehicles in the garage?

They didn't check ID coming in through the gates, all you needed was a ticket that anyone with a printer could have created.

The SS is way over rated, and the shoot about as well as a Chicago street gang.

I won't question their bravery, but their preparation planning is designed for the 1950s.

The first World Trade Center bombing in the 90's, was a van in the garage, I know, I was there when it happened.

Did the FBI and SS forget that little event?

They pat you down and play with your balls at the airport, but anyone checked into the hotel can do a walk about {with the guns they carried into the hotel}.

The people I know who work in the media are the biggest food moochers ever. It's a norm for them that at any reporting event they show up to, part of the bribe is "free" food.

There are regular jokes about it in movies.

And the korporation that's being reported on writes off the food as a business expense, once again screwing the taxpayers paying for the propaganda being used against them.

Better yet, stop having one. It is Kabuki sitting around and eating with people (and fake laughing) who are actively trying to destroy you. Shun them.

If I were in a crowded room and just heard gunshots I doubt I’d be taking the time to collect up the hooch. 😂

I saw a few people eating immediately afterwards. What are you supposed to do? Stand there crying and emoting? That was dinner that night... and you don’t wanna stop in DC for fast food on the way home.

Ya gotta eat...

Looks like a hotel hooker. Or a member of Corporate Media. Same thing.

They couldn’t hit a bull in the ass with a big base fiddle...
And too chubby to successfully reholster.

Probably headed up to her hotel room with it. Sensible since the the admission ticket was paid already.
