Colin Jost of SNL will be the host of the 2024 White House Correspondents Dinner. This is the gathering of the U.S. and world media groups, President Joe Biden and the elite.
With the election looming, Biden goes in with a 45% chance of winning reelection.
The issues facing the country are the protests on colleges, a lazy Congress, TikTok being banned, Israel, Russia, Ukraine, Haiti, Chad, Niger, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Taiwan, China and the economy. Also the ages of Biden, Donald J. Trump and Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. are issues as well.
Biden is stubbornly opposed to ending aid to Israel.

Republicans refuse to work with Biden on anything (with exception to Israel and the TikTok ban).
Tonight, the laughs, the controversy and the president.
The annual event, which typically consists of the night’s comedian roasting powerful political figures and various media outlets, is expected to feature an election-year roast from Biden.
A mix of political, media and Hollywood figures have arrived at the so-called “Nerd Prom” this evening, including SAG-AFTRA president Fran Drescher, Gayle King, Billy Porter, Da’Vine Joy Randolph, Al Roker, Chris Pine, Senator Chuck Schumer of New York and many more.
Jost started writing for “SNL” in 2005 and has been the co-anchor of “Weekend Update,” along with Michael Che, since 2014.
Jost is married to actress Scarlett Johansson.
