Mr. Biden will almost assuredly make jokes at Mr. Trump’s expense and poke fun at the Washington press corps. But Mr. Biden could also take a victory lap for a spate of good news in recent days. On Thursday, Mr. Biden promoted a $6.1 billion grant to a chip manufacturer that he said would bolster the nation’s supply of semiconductors, contributing to what he has labeled “the great American comeback story.”And on Friday, Mr. Biden made a surprise visit to “The Howard Stern Show,” hosted by America’s best-known shock jock. The president spoke at length about deeply personal events, showing an emotionally vulnerable side to Mr. Stern’s large audience of middle-class Americans. And, in a notable shift, he said he would debate Mr. Trump.

Mitt Romney in McKay Coppins' new book spoke about the 2016 dinner photo with Trump that went viral. Romney was under consideration to be secretary of state at the time, and met with Trump to discuss world affairs. "It had nothing to do with Donald Trump," Romney remarked to Coppins. Later that evening, Romney told members of the press that he had a "wonderful evening" with Trump and said their talks regarding global affairs had been "interesting and engaging." Trump then told Romney that he needed to come out forcefully in support of him to quell detractors.

Biden mocked Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene during his White House Correspondents' Dinner speech. He said that if guests felt confused, they were either "drunk or Marjorie Taylor Greene."

This year marked the first time the annual dinner returned to its full form since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.

DC Films’ latest release into the endless superhero pantheon, “Black Adam,” has a lot riding on Dwayne Johnson’s muscled shoulders. Black Adam, one of the regularly scheduled villains in the comic book, was supposed to be his main antagonist. And while “Black Panther” did a great job of making its bad guy both a certifiable badass and a nuanced character, “Black Adam” fails miserably. “Black Adam” has an interesting inkling of an idea: an oppressed culture that needs to overthrow the invading white men. But the midcredit sequence in “Black Adam” unfortunately suggests studio leaders are committed to making the same mistakes all over again.
