"Don't groan...pass legislation, " was the best line of the evening.

That Clarence Thomas NFT joke was incredible.

[KnowTrentTimoy]

He had a very good set. Played to the audience and got laughs all across the board. I've never seen a comic interweave good storytelling, facts and humor all at the same time. Well done sir.

Roy acknowledging and paying tribute to his Mom and Dad was very powerful and well deserved. Very impressive.

[michlnyc]

Roy killed it 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 what a moving tribute to his mom & dad in journalism.

Roy Wood Jr, is consistently funny AND topical, intelligent, and touching.

[myphone]

He said " Im like Mitch McConnal, I have no soul". Classic😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[camille]

This man demonstrated free speech, and the president enjoyed it. Well done America!

[andrescosetti]

Best ever balance of thoughtfulness and humour at one of these WH corespondents dinner so far.

I was not super familiar with this person, but he has delivered the best monologue at Correspondence Dinners... in my opinion. I like that both Republicans and Democrats were laughing... and both Republicans and Democrats were frowning!!! Well done, Sir!

[Chromatomic]

Roy not pulling any punches and still telling important facts. Love it.

[sallyhemings]

“I’m like Mitch McConnell …I ain’t got no soul” 😂😂😂

[damienvillegas]

Yeah this was one of the best correspondents speeches! He criticized and brought truth to power while making jokes! Great job Roy!!!

[seancrockett]

He did great, man. His parents are true heroes

[ejyounggun]

So many clever jokes but the way he wrapped up Clarence Thomas back to the NFT was fantastic.

[jamesmoline]

Well done. Class act. Hit on the critical topics. Not mean spirited. Held up a higher standard for us all. Good luck to you, sir.

Roy Wood did a great job. Some of his jokes didn't get the response they deserved, but that has to do with the audience. He had me laughing throughout his full set.
