I am Tom Shaloo, in for Greg on this very special edition of Gutfeld. Let's kick some things off with some jokes. So, we're hearing more about acts of heroism at the White House Correspondence Dinner, and it's pretty inspirational stuff. Brian Stelter used his body to shield a crab cake. Chuck Schumer attempted to bore the gunman to death. Kamala Harris escorted the bartender to see. safety.

Bill Clinton offered to pat down any suspicious interns. Mitch McConnell stayed hidden in his shell. And Joe Biden played dead. King Charles is visiting the United States. It's part of President Trump's plan to welcome leaders from across the Muslim world. That's all right. President Trump tapped the king's shoulder in a friendly gesture, breaking the unwritten rule against initiating physical contact with a royal,

unless, of course, you're a teenager. EPA Chief Lee Zeldon slammed Connecticut lawmaker Rosa DeLoro for not knowing the law on environmental regulations. But DeLauro countered with the three questions she asks people who try to cross the bridge she lives under. Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker refused to walk back his comments, calling Donald Trump a Nazi. He doesn't even think Nazi is a bad word, probably because he cannot see his own feet.

A California woman escaped being kidnapped by texting 911 from a gas station bathroom. People are calling her brave for using a gas station bathroom. And finally, a new study finds dyslexia affects more males than females, which explains why this guy thinks he's six foot five. We'll be back with more Gutfeld. Now to the monologue. After three attempts on Trump's life in under two years, you'd think the left would say, hey, maybe calling Trump Hitler isn't helping. But I wonder, are any of them concerned? The notion that any of us are concerned with so-called criticism from these phony Republicans,

certainly as it relates to the comment related to maximum warfare everywhere all the time, in connection with the redistricting battle that Republicans launched. You can continue to criticize me for it. I don't give a damn about your criticism. You don't give a damn. Yeah, that's what you want from your elected leaders. Chili indifference. And his party's right behind him,

ranting about threats to democracy, then threatening lives. They say it's both sides, even though Joe Biden's biggest threats were stares and natural causes. Some of your critics may point to what you said in the state of the state last year when you compare the Trump administration to the rise of Nazis. What I was talking about was the fact that a constitutional republic was torn apart in 53 days in Germany in the 1930s, and that we need to watch out for that in this country. Much of what I said has been proven to be true.

When people talk about destroying civilizations or calling people names, normalizing all of these things, we should not be doing that. The threat levels that are going up in part because of the president, his very low approval ratings, which unfortunately fuel a lot of disaffection. If Trump has low approval ratings, then it should be easy to beat him at the ballot box, right? Turns out it's not if you run a mummy and a rummy. Now, after this shooting, they should be horrified. Instead, there's no regret for their words.

No guilt. Worse. Some think the whole thing was fake. Does Trump now again get victimized? Donald Trump now again gets victimized by an alleged would-be assassin in front of the perfect witnesses, the press. It doesn't make sense. The manifesto sounds like it was written by the FBI. I mean, it could have been written by him.

We just don't know. There are 16 seasons of Master Chef. And it's so good when you don't want to watch the news about fake assassination attempts or what they're calling an assassination attempt. Somebody decided that they didn't need a lot of security. And who was that? Well, I can do that.

definitely believe Rosie watched 16 seasons of a cooking show. And if Joy Reid's worried about fakes, she should cancel her subscription to the wig of the month club. So how does someone become so detached from reality? It makes sense if you visit blue sky. It's the left's version of X, created by those who were angry when Elon bought Twitter and unleashed a menace called Free Speech. So they built a bubble where their bad ideas flourished.

It was a safe space, but by safe, I mean safe to talk about murdering the president. I scrolled through the app the day after the White House correspondence dinner. I saw hundreds of people. Many were skeptical that it was even real. Others sympathized with the shooter, like liberal journalist Elizabeth Spears, who compared Saturday's shooter to Luigi Mangione, even pointing out that he doesn't even seem crazy. Well, of course he doesn't.

That's the point. He sounds like a lot of ranting blue sky dopes. His manifesto is indistinguishable from what you would read on that platform every day, where assassination, glorification is normalized, where Trump-Hitler comparisons are typical. And the media and the Dems, they validate their ideologies, giving comfort to those who wanted to believe they were right, and Trump was evil. So that's why they treat this guy just like Luigi. They don't see a monster, just someone who thinks like them.

So they'll say they stand against violence, but you can't say you're against. violence while you're waving a free Luigi banner or cheering Charlie's murder or making excuses for a teacher who shoots at the president because when you build a world where people repeatedly say that Trump is an existential threat eventually someone's going to listen.
