WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENTS' Dinner.......

FYI:
WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENTS' ASSOCIATION™ DINNER - Sat - APRIL 29, 2017 The White House Correspondents’ Association’s annual dinner takes place this Saturday, April 29, held in the ballroom at the Washington Hilton Hotel. The event will stream live on C-SPAN beginning at 9:30 p.m. ET/6:30 p.m. PT.


Sometimes things get interesting at this event. I missed the Grid Iron Dinner this year (which was earlier this month I think) it's usually entertaining too.

The dinner will be hosted by comedian Hasan Minhaj, who is currently a senior correspondent for The Daily Show. He is also Muslim and the son of Indian immigrants.

Perhaps they will just leave DT's seat empty...maybe Clint Eastwood can come in and have a conversation with it~

He's afraid to show his face after what he has said about news people.

Don't pay him $200,000 to hang out with him, so there aren't enough millionaires in the room to make him feel wanted.
