The Trump administration moved quickly to exploit the weekend’s shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner, using the incident to pressure opponents of the president’s planned White House ballroom to drop their legal challenge.

In a separate interview, President Trump reportedly lashed out at a journalist who questioned him about the gunman’s manifesto, calling the interviewer “a disgrace,” according to Norwegian outlet Dagbladet.
