The White House Correspondents’ Dinner is a time to honor journalists and to raise money for scholarships. But it’s also (in)famous for its roasts of politicians and the media. For the April 30, 2022 event, the best jokes of the night got hilariously brutal.

President Biden not pulling his punches joking about his predecessor. Oof.

That burn tho.

This one sent me.

The look of shock on James Corden’s face when White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said the president has not seen the new Kardashians show on Hulu is everything.

I stan Billy Eichner for giving himself a shoutout. Self-love is important, y’all.

It’s funny until it’s real. I really hope it’s not real.

Work smarter, not harder.

Trevor Noah’s impression of a drunk lady at Waffle House was, uh, spot on.
