Social media was sent into a stress on Thursday after a media share falsely reported that there was an incident at Mar-a-Lago with many ambulances, emergency vehicles, a plane, and vans of Secret Service agents leaving the president-elect’s Florida home.
At about 4: 15 p. m., Andrew Feinberg, a White House correspondent for The Independent, tweeted,” Today: Per swimming,  , 2 vehicles and some trailers that appeared full of Secret Service have left Mar-a-Lago in the last few moments”. In another tweet sent shortly after 4: 30 p. m., Feinberg explained,” This is according to a note from the CBS tv pool crew near Palm Beach”.
A CBS TV crew also reported that “environ 20 to 25 cars, two ambulances, and a helicopter hovering above” entering MAL just before the vans and ambulances were spotted leaving.
According to Feinberg, who was questioned to shed some light on how the reports of an emergency at Mar-a-Lago came about, an unnamed CBS producer who was in the area wrote in a pool note that” secret service officers just drove out of MAL” I used my iPhone to capture the motorcade entering MAL. Will feed shortly”.

According to The Post Millennial, Feinberg confirmed that the emergency vehicles were merely a standard component of Vice President-elect J. D. Vance’s motorcade shortly after” Pray for President Trump” started to appear on X and the media began to spread false information.
“CALM DOWN, PEOPLE. Per a transition source and @SecretService, the ambulances were part of Vice President-elect @JDVance’s motorcade”, Feinberg tweeted. ” False alarm. Go about your business”.
Following Thursday’s incident involving the media’s false reporting, Steven Cheung, Trump’s communications director, issued a statement on social media, saying,” The press has set up a fake, unofficial’ pool’ because they want to feel important about themselves. In this instance, some jerk at CBS accidentally overreacted and blared the fire alarm, believing they would receive the scoop of the lifetime. F-cking dummy”.
Arthur Schwartz, a conservative consultant, tweeted, “CBS News ‘ @AlliNovelo was responsible for peddling disinformation because she’s desperate to make a name for herself”.
Despite Trump not even being in office at the time, according to conservative journalist Mike Cernovich, “hoaxes” have already started. Meanwhile, media personality Jack Posobiec mocked mainstream media, saying,” Next the lib journos will say Russian ICBMs are hitting Mar-a-Lago. You ca n’t trust these people”.
