Comedian Hasan Minhaj takes up the stage at the White House Correspondents Dinner

Hasan Minhaj was told not to attack the Trump administration with tough jokes during his speech at the White House Correspondents dinner. But the comedian didn't miss the opportunity to make some jokes on their behalf anyway -- especially in the absence of everyone from the Trump administration at the event. See his full remarks here.

[eddygolder]

5:12 the guy in the left is like
"Wtf is a W?"

[alihamid]

Great guy, I see a lot of leader qualities in him. I believe a Muslim leader in the white house rather than a bigot, america will be more better today.

[danasunbulli]

This is another person that is representing us minorities and Muslims well.

[samsamyra]

Hasan just throwing shade at everyone for 25 minutes...

[ginam]

Im not sure why journalists are afraid to smile and acknowledge what they say EVERY DAY. What happened to 1st ammendment and hard hitting journalism. I may not like all that he says but he isnt wrong

[ricardo]

Aside from Conan, who did the best WH speech, this is one of my faves. Hasan has energy and his writing is smart.

[DenyIgnoranceDotCom]

I'll go watch on C-SPAN's channel where there's no ads.

[Juanhellou]

This sounds a lot like the Craig Ferguson speech: Nice to see it revitalized

[BruizerBlue]

The longer you keep him distracted the longer we don't go to war with North Korea. - that joke didn't age well

[jenny-DD]

Funny how - now we all want Trump back in office
