NYT: ‘When agents grabbed Tulsi Gabbard, the director of national intelligence, they briefly got stuck between two tight tables.’

And: Michael Glantz, a top agent at Creative Artists Agency, stayed in his seat and picked at the burrata on his plate — a stark contrast to the chaotic scene unfolding and one that was captured live on CNN. (…)
‘On Sunday, Mr. Glantz said he did not consider leaving his seat.
“First of all, I have a bad back,” he said. “I couldn’t get on the floor, and if I did get on the floor, they’d have to bring in people to get me off the floor. And No. 2, I’m a hygiene freak. There was no freaking way I was getting in my new tux on the dirty Hilton floor.”’

Mr. Glantz is to my liking.

A burrata is more important than a shooter. After all, the burrata didn’t die for nothing.
