Edited: this is sort of yesterday's news, but a WaPo article linked at the end of the tweets did not yet have the list of participants.

This seems relevant to reporting on this farce. @radleybalko

Grossman is a police trainer who tells cops they should be using *more* lethal force, and that after killing a man, they'll have the best sex of their lives.

The White House will hear his I'm-sure-it-isn't-crazy-at-all expertise about video games.

By Tony Romm March 7 at 4:29 PM

....
Three people familiar with the White House’s planning, but not authorized to speak on the record, confirmed those invitees. A spokeswoman for the White House declined to share a full list of participants on Wednesday. ESA confirmed its attendance this week, but the others did not respond to questions.

1. Bozell?

Maggots invited people who ARE video games.

[Fred Sanders]

3. Does the Trump regime not understand Americans get it that Trump's "meetings"

on GUNZ is never about the GUNZ? It is all about keeping the circle jerk alive with Fox and the Deplorables.

2. No Joe Lieberman?

This was one of his favorite issues.

4. And somehow this will be all about the Trump brand I assume. Can a major video game be far behind

Some game for the kiddos with lots of shady deals and characters, (un) safe sex and it's consequences, collecting eye candy, stealing from and killing those less fortunate, painting things gold, earning cosmetic enhancements, bonus points for alternative fact telling and cerimonious boasting, the ability to fire people, world domination, and a splattering of locker room talk perhaps?

5. Should be a fun meeting,

Of note, brent bozo bozell was sued by the McMahons, Vince & Linda, Linda is a trump cabinet secretary.

Think bozo bozell had to pay $3.5 million and apologize to Vince & Linda.

The Parents TV council is another of super catholic bozell's operations, so he brought a lacky.

More crumbs for the christofascists.

6. Will he use this forum to tell the dipping bullets in Pigs Blood story (lie)?

I want to hear that one again.

After playing Frogger too often, i decided to try it in real life. That was stupid

8. No Democrats from Congress

I guess this will be a one sided affair
