Trevor Noah

Trevor Noah took aim at President Biden, CNN, Fox News and more at the White House correspondents' dinner, which returned for the first time since 2019.

I think that dude knew exactly where Italy was and he was just going to keep searching as long as you were paying.” — “What I like about Ron DeSantis is if Trump was the original Terminator, DeSantis is like the T-1000. You’re smarter than him. — “As you all know, President Biden’s lack of a filter does get him into hot water sometimes. — “Interesting fact: Even as first lady, Dr. Biden continued her teaching career, the first time a presidential spouse has ever done so. Can I be honest, CNN? I think Stanley Tucci was playing you guys. She spends all day fighting with random people on Twitter like a common political reporter.” What if I make a really mean joke about Kellyanne Conway and her husband rushes up on the stage and thanks me?” — “You guys spent the last two years telling everyone about the importance of wearing masks and avoiding large, indoor gatherings. … Whenever there’s a disaster anywhere in the world, Chef José is there. People like Daniel Dale. He used to be CNN’s fact-checker on TV every day but now there’s barely anything to check. Trump said he won the election, but everyone was able to look at the numbers and see that he was wrong. Trevor Noah took aim at cable news channels and their big-name anchors during his relatively safe set at Saturday night’s White House correspondents’ dinner.

“I actually think it’s beautiful to see an office romance at Fox that won’t end in a $20 million settlement,” Noah chided, speaking of the long scandal that still defines FNC in the eyes of many. “Please be careful leaving tonight, we all know this administration doesn’t handle evacuations well,” Noah said to a standing ovation seconds before shaking hands with Biden. “Fun fact: Sean Hannity and Ainsley Earhardt are actually dating now,” he said of the FNC colleagues. “Then the second someone offers you a free dinner, you turn into Joe Rogan.” “I actually get why CBS hired Mick Mulvaney,” Comedy Central-based Noah noted of the controversial contract handed out to one of Donald Trump’s former chiefs of staff. Everyone got stung, but no one really got burned …well, unless you work for Fox News Channel – which is always a crowd pleaser to almost everyone at these things over the last dozen years or so.

The comedian went after President Joe Biden, Democrats, Republicans and members of the media from CNN to Fox News. The headliner took the stage after the ...

You know who I blame, CNN? John King … your magic wall can predict how every person in the country is going to vote in every county, but it couldn’t give you a heads up that nobody wanted more CNN? - Trump said he won the election, but everyone was just able to look at the numbers and see that he was wrong. - Apparently, Jeff [Zucker] got fired after he tried to keep his workplace relationship secret, which is weird because if he really didn’t want anyone to know about it, he could have just made a show about it on CNN+. … It’s so sad. - I think everyone will agree that it’s actually nice to once again have a president who’s not afraid to come to the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, and hear jokes about himself. - What about Maggie Haberman? For four years, it was exclusives on the Russia investigation, corruption, the president doesn’t read his daily briefings, on and on. Fox News in the house … I know Fox has a bad reputation — I can even feel you tense up now when I talk about them. - The great chef José Andrés is here tonight. - I’ve just got to say, this is so exciting. What if I make a really mean joke about Kellyanne Conway, and her husband rushes up on the stage and thanks me? - We all saw what happened at the Oscars. I’ve actually been a bit worried about tonight. I’m a comedian, not Kyrsten Sinema. … By the way, give it up for Kyrsten Sinema. Whoever thought we’d see the day in American politics when a senator could be openly bisexual, but closeted Republican? That’s progress. … The second someone offers you a free dinner you all turn into Joe Rogan.

The last time a president and a comedian shared the stage at the White House Correspondents' Dinner was six long years ago, when Larry Wilmore ended his set ...

“In America, you have the right to seek the truth and speak the truth, even if it makes people in power uncomfortable,” Noah said. I stood here tonight and I made fun of the president of the United States and I’m going to be fine.” To Meet the Press host Chuck Todd, Noah asked, “How are you doing? into the ICU.” “This is an exclusive event,” he added. “You spent the last two years telling everyone the importance of wearing masks and avoiding large indoor gatherings.

Six yrs since a POTUS graced the WHCD, the 46th Commander-in-chief took to the stage before DC, H'wood & media elite.

As it has for decades, the whole shebang takes place in a 2,500-person strong Hilton ballroom packed with the upper crust of American pop culture and media. It didn’t help that press and the then President were in a constant chokehold embrace, to put it mildly, over his policies and paranoia. The award is named after the first two African American women to serve as members of the White House press corps – as a video played in the room detailed. A DC regular since 1973, Biden was a featured player in a number of past WHCD over the decades. “To make it up to you, I’m happy to give my Chief of Staff to you so he can tell Sean Hannity what to say every day,“ a pointed Biden said in reference to the now-public relationship between Mark Meadows and the FNC host. Working with his staff and some outside talent on his speech, the crowd-pleasing President had to make sure to get a few belly laughs while not seeming insensitive to the economic woes many Americans are experiencing and the carnage coming out of Russia’s ongoing invasion of Ukraine.

“It is risky making jokes these days,” the Daily Show host told the packed and maskless crowd of around 2,500 guests. “No, you know what, don’t boo him you bunch of haters,” said Noah. “So what Jeffrey, you made a mistake, you whipped it out in front of your co-workers… “I’ve actually been a little worried about tonight.
