There has been a "security incident" at the entrance to the NSA's headquarters in Fort Meade, Maryland:

Several people have been injured and a suspect was taken into custody after a car crashed outside the US National Security Agency's headquarters.

Gunfire rang out after the black SUV approached the facility in Fort Meade, Maryland, without authorisation.

An NSA spokesman said it was unclear if the shots had been fired by law enforcement officers or the suspect, adding that the scene was now secure.

    Don't tell the Evangelicals that. They might just continue to support him unequivocally!

    I don't know how you cannot see it.

    Donald Trump exhibits everything you would expect to see in the life of a Christian.
    * humility
    * peace
    * kindness
    * gentleness
    * self-control
    * temperance
    * long suffering
    * forgiveness

    How can you not see it?
    Like the grinch, maybe his hands were 3 sizes too small?

      Thank you, DannyB, for your very LOYAL support!!

      Not many people know, I believe in God. I think religion is a wonderful thing. I think my religion is a wonderful religion. I am Christian. I'm VERY PROUD of that. I think The Bible is certainly, it is THE book. It is the thing. I was raised a Christian. First Presbyterian Church in Jamaica, Queens is where I went to church. I’m a Protestant, I’m a Presbyterian. And, you know, I’ve had a good relationship with the church over the years. Well, I go as much as I can. Always, always on Christmas. Every Christmas! Always on Easter. Always when there’s a major occasion. And during the Sundays. I’m a Sunday church person. I’ll go when I can. It's a fabulous place to meet women. ✝️

      The best thoughts [twitter.com]:

      As we come together to celebrate the extraordinary contributions of African-Americans to our nation, our thoughts turn to the heroes of the civil rights movement whose courage and sacrifice have inspired us all.

      I don't see anything about this attack on his Twitter, are we talking about a White House press release or briefing here?

        My thoughts and prayers are with all of the victims involved in this mornings shooting at NSA headquarters. I asked Lindsay to send an EMAIL for me. Because the folks at my beautiful NSA always read EMAIL.

          Really. And what's especially convenient is that you don't even have to address to them

    I spoke at the #NationalPrayerBreakfast [twitter.com] in Washington. Great religious and political leaders, and many friends, including T.V. producer Mark Burnett of our wonderful 14 season Apprentice triumph, were there. Arnold Schwarzenegger got "swamped" (or destroyed) by comparison to the ratings machine, DJT.

    I promised I will get rid of and totally destroy the Johnson Amendment and allow our representatives of faith to speak freely and without fear of retribution. I will do that. REMEMBER. pic.twitter.com/1cwxs3l0uK [t.co]
