I learned somewhat belatedly that the #StateOfTheSwamp event was hosted by the #nerdprom people, the #PressClub . Kudos for putting those two Monarch butterflies in the backdrop, I mean, those are immigrants from Mexico after all, that come here to produce anchor babies. Kudos to the Portland Frogs, who got honorable mention on #TheLateShow with #StephenColbert . Well done, folks--well done.

The pandering #NerdProm bits on Biden is Old are especially bizarre when Trump is sleeping with his mouth open at the Pope's funeral. Read what's left of the room, White House Correspondents Dinner.

The White House Correspondents Dinner flopped without Amber Ruffin. As anything without Amber Ruffin should. #NerdProm

Arguments for and against the #media attending the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner:

The White House correspondents’ dinner is still on. Appetites vary.

As Trump’s White House continues to restrict access to AP and others, some correspondents are having reservations about Washington media’s big night.

It's astonishing to me that the White House Press Association continues to sit in briefings. Not just because the administration lies every time they open their mouths; Not just because the White House banned the AP from its access to the president; The #NerdProm was always gross. This is why.

so is there going to be a WHCA dinner this year, I'm sorry I mean #nerdprom or whatever? There's a 100 Pultizers on the floor and nobody is picking them up and reporters could be this generation's Woodward and Bernstein, but you're not doing that in search of what exactly? Loser stuff.
