White House Press Selects Queer, Anti-Racist ‘Comedian’ To Host Trump’s Correspondents’ Dinner

The White House Correspondents’ Association (WHCA) announced that they selected Amber Ruffin as the featured entertainer for the annual correspondents’ dinner April 26.

The decision to bring on the left-leaning comedian who is sure to focus on her cringey agenda was announced in a press release Tuesday. Surely there was a long list of comedians who could have been pegged for this gig, yet somehow, the platform has been handed to Ruffin, who previously whined publicly about being discriminated against for being both black and queer. Ruffin’s social media page is rife with anti-Trump messaging, which is sure to make for a colorful evening.

Ruffin took to Instagram just prior to Trump’s inauguration and roasted the rapper Nelly for agreeing to give a live performance at the Liberty Ball inaugural event. “Jesus wept,” she wrote alongside side-by-side images of Nelly and Trump.

The Emmy and Tony Award nominee also shared a video clip from the comedy news series, “Have I Got News For You US,” in which she roasted Trump nominees, including Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. The clip was also shared by Roy Wood Jr. and Michael Ian Black.

These make her a very interesting and incredibly predictable entertainment choice for the correspondents’ dinner.

I sincerely hope Trump decides not to legitimize this stupidity and just skips the evening.  "Independent news media" and  "excellence in journalism" my pasty white rear-end.

Yeah but, I have mixed feelings.  Go in a show of defiance and take the insults that you know will come.  Don't go and they will call him a thin skinned dictator.

You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

The last several WHCA performances have been pathetic. I doubt there's been a funny one since Darryl Hammond.

Amber Ruffin is a DEI poster child meant to antagonize, diminish, and embarass Trump.  Do not attend.  Let the MSM shuffle chairs on the deck of their sinking ship.

Conservative media should counter-schedule a conservative media White House correspondents dinner for the same night.

Meh, they are already calling him that anyway. I think it is time to stop playing their games.

Norm MacDonald and Don Imus, though not hosts had the best moments I can remember.   :silly:

Even better, organize an alternative Correspondents Dinner with alternative media at the same time and ignore the MSM event.

That occurred to me, too. Wouldn't it be glorious?

Agreed. (BTW I love your comment "my pasty white rear-end").
Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly; do not claim to be wiser than you are. Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.   Romans 12:16-18

Unlike the WHCA, I believe in telling the unbiased truth.   :laugh:

If Trump doesn’t show up the only people who will be watching this shitshow will be the few diehard socialists left that aren’t fed up with the bullshit. I doubt there will be very many of the California left burned out by democrat incompetence that tune in.
