Trump does not appear in the video until about 15 seconds after the woman screamed the obscenity. Before then, his entourage of secret service members are the only ones shown in the video.
According to an NBC News intern who was standing near the commotion, the woman who yelled at POTUS was, in fact, a congressional intern, though her identity and her exact employer have not been confirmed.
Politico Capitol Bureau Chief John Bresnahan claimed that the U.S. Capitol Police are searching for the woman who shouted at the President.
The meeting was announced on Saturday according to the Washington Examiner. The President was on his way to Speaker Ryan’s office to discuss the immigration crisis prompted by public disapproval of the administration's ‘zero tolerance policy’ separating illegal immigrant families.
