It'd be funny if it wasn't for the cop who got hurt. And the long prison sentence awaiting the perp.

 

Preexisting conditions are covered.

 

Sounded like an unrelated car chase at first, not so sure now though based on that tweet.

 

ABC is reporting a female suspect who was shot dead. So no prison sentence.

 

It's beginning. Lock and load, b****es.

 

How is that possible? I haven't been to DC in a few years, but don't they have those huge barricade cylinders that block off street access? Unless they just went straight up Penn avenue into the side of the lawn. Trying to envision where it is possible for someone to do that.

 

Heard on CNN that one person said it was the barricade cylinders that the car was trying to ram through, not the actual white house fence.

 

The barricade was furloughed.

 

We could've asked that lady how she did it, but...
