michele wolf was talking about makeup. trump is just insults. get do to it!now comedy is hard to set rules for but trump people gets it. joking is no excuse if the comedian is insulting the president. only if the insults are coming from the president. >> trump insists thoapts call obama the founder. >> he is the founder of i.s.i.s. >> i think the title he gave founder was the point of sarcasm. donald trump made that comment tongue-in-cheek about going a and getting her e-mails. >> the entire world knows the president is kidding. >> the president never implied the secretary of state was not incredibly intelligent. he made a joke, nothing more than that. maybe you guys should get a sense of humor and try it some time but he simply made a joke. >> trevor: exactly. get a sense of humor, snowflakes. now, get out of the way. we have to put up this plaque, in memory of the brave people roasted to death by michelle wolf, #never forget. i agree with president trump and team, comedians should be held to a higher standard than he. tonight i'm announcing i'm officially f

[applause] so please welcome michelle wolf. [applause] michelle: this has been long.ughter] good evening, good evening. here we are at the white house correspondents' dinner. like a porn and star says when she is about to have sex with trump, let's get this over with. i'm going to skip the normal pleasantries. we are at a hilton, it is not nice. this is on c-span, no one watches that. trump is president, it is not ideal. the association, thank you for having me. the monk fish was fine. [laughter] and just a reminder to everyone, i am here to make jokes. i have no agenda. i am not trying to get anything accomplished. everyone that is here from congress, you should feel right at home. [laughter] before we get too far, a lot of you might not know who i am. i am 32 years old, which is an odd age, 10 years too young to host this event and 20 years too old for roy moore. i know, he almost got elected, yes. it was fun. it was fun. [laughter] honestly, i never really thought i would be a comedian, but i did take an aptitude test in seventh grade and this is 100% true. it said

laughter ) it's called "my beautiful dark twisted reality." ( laughter ) i want to congratulate michelle wolf for being so lucky to have "me" steve-splain everything she did wrong. ( laughter ) first, michelle, let's address your potty mouth. what the ( bleep ) was up with that? ( applause ) this is the correspondents' dinner, celebrating the freedom of speech. you can't just say whatever you want! ( laughter ) you don't go to a funeral and say exactly what you thought of the person. and what is the annual correspondents' dinner but a funeral for the independent press. and how dare you besmirch the okay name of sarah huckabee- sanders? ( laughter ) and i'm so proud right down to the breastbone that the press is defending her, despite the fact her boss joked about throwing reporters in jail. that's comedy the press likes. more jokes like that, michelle. ( laughter ) well, i hope you realize that no one's ever going to forget about the speech on saturday night, and they will never forget that you have a new netflix show. congratulations. good luck with that. ( cheers and applause ) is he gone?

give it up for michelle wolf, everybody. [ cheers and applause ] and -- and -- i can only hope -- i cany hope that some of the journalists who were so upset that michelle made fun of sarah sanders' eyeshadow, will set aside a little of their outrage for this other thing that happened on saturday. here to comment, jenny hagel. [ cheers and applause ] >> thanks seth. president trump held a rally in michigan this weekend, and at one point he asked the crowd the following question. >> any hispanics in the room? hispanics? no, not so many? that's okay. [ cheers ] >> i'm hispanic and i think i speak for all of us when i say "ay dios mio." [ laughter ] that clip is terrifying. trump asked if there were any hispanics in the room. nothing good starts like that. if you look around the room and say, "is becca here?" the next thing you say isn't going to be something nice about becca. [ light laughter ] if you're hispanic and a person at a podium asks, "are there any hispanics in the room?" that's your cue to get out of that room. [ light laughter ] that's your cue to pull a von trapp. >> the von t

michelle wolf's argument is, i was talking about her "despicable behavior." everything is upside down. frankly, comedy is supposed to be uncomfortable. maybe it's a good thing people in that room are uncomfortable. >> laura: you know what i thought was uncomfortable is reading some of michelle wolf's tweets that she deleted. one of them comparing serena williams to looking like a man, looking like lebron james, i guess, which was wild. other things she said about eric trump, that he is an abortion, that drum must be pro-abortion because eric trump -- as she tweeted that and she deleted thousands of her tweets apparently last june according to the reporting today. these white house correspondents folks, they don't even know how to vent their own people. >> laura, i just want to do a little history. you forget that don imus came on, he was a comedian during the clinton era, with a democrat, and right in front of clinton and his wife, started talking about extramarital affairs and making very tawdry jokes. that is a democrat -- and you say -- >> laura: that was

they have rushed to michelle wolf's defense. >> this was a roast, and you are the ones who hired michelle at her for doing her job is like accusing -- of briefly stealing your car. stick with hire comedians because they are edgy and they get mad when they are edgy. >> you hired her. it's like a parent sending an email saying yesterday's birthday was meant to celebrate kevin turning 6 years old. unfortunately the stripper dance routine was not in the spirit of the party. >> juan: wolf says she wouldn't change one word. what do you think, greg? >> greg: everybody there is absolutely 100% correct. we said this yesterday. the white house correspondents association did an incredibly cowardly move. they hired her. they knew what she was about to do. they wanted edgy. then they distanced themselves. it's completely, it is cowardice. the next person that is asked to do it is going to have to formulate this occurrence. should i skip it because what if i go too far? will they have my back? interesting that the same group of people didn't defend kanye which tells you who is more daring. >> dana: i t

correspondents dinner with the left attacking president trump who wasn't there and the right attacking michelle wolf. >> is it sarah sanders, cousin huckabee, what is uncle tom for white women who disappoint other white women. >> michelle should have had the decency not to comment on women's appearance in any way, shape or form. she is a median, for god's sake, not the president. howie: joining us from new york, kat timpf, a "national review" writer and fox news contributor. there were personal, crude, harsh comments against sarah huckabee sanders, and kellyanne and ivanka. what would they have said if such jokes were made about barack and michelle or hillary? cat. kat: there wouldn't be the same reaction. a lot of people who are saying it's an outrage don't say that when president trump says something. howie: you feel -- you have written this, that those folks, many of those commentators give the president a pass for some of the things he says. kat: president trump made fun of mika's looks and rosie o'donnell. but when a median who there is to roast people makes fun of sarah huckabee sanders then i

is going to do michelle wolf. "i'm going to say the most outrageous thing," or "i'm going tuke about food." we do what we do and then get credit or criticism. >> stephen: one strange thing-- it's strange to me and might strike you as odd-- you are a professional comedian, man of the world, and yet what you go out and do on stage is cleaner often than what the president says. like there are dirtier jokes attributed to president than there is to jim gaffigan. >> it is true. you know, that is true. >> stephen: yeah. ( laughter ) it's like findouth that you're older than the president or something. you're more mature than the president of the united states. >> well, i'm-- i mean, i'm-- maybe i'm fatter than him, too. i don't know. ( laughter ). >> stephen: there's just a lot to love, jim. >> there's a lot to love. it is weird, because i think as a comedian, whether it be me or you or michelle wolf, i think what people don't realize is comedians are just looking for the adjective of "funny." so i understand that maybe

so this isn't really about michelle wolf.nk this is about the white house correspondents association and why they thought michelle wolf would be a good person to have at the event knowing her history. ainsley: maybe they knew exactly what they were getting. take a look at some of the sound bites she was a comedian on the daily show? >> before you put too much hope in ivanka, remember, she brought a brand of festival that makes her rich by exploiting the very people she is claiming to hem. that's not being a feminist. that's being a trump. donald j. trump you just became america's butler. now, go fix our healthcare. make she a sandwich you [bleep] >> what do you think the back story is? do you think the president and the folks that work for the dinner itself and organize it, do you think they knew who she was and what they were getting? >> those clips are a good reminder that the big crime for michelle wolf really that she wasn't funny at an event where that was her one job to be funny. this is, again, this is ♪ just michelle

foilings like jim carey and michelle wolf and grammys attack nikki haley, it is disgusting. this show, michelle wolf on netflix. >> i'm sure a lot of people will watch the show. she is comedian. her first amendment right. we're talking about this is politician got up there and said that if you guys had any funny comedians on your side there would be praise for such a show at that was talking about the conservative way of life and how great it is but kayleigh's point here, what you look what this administration is doing, rolling back obama's fair policy acts from 2014 to make sure that women are being paid equally to men, these are not things that are good for women. just because you have a woman standing up there at the podium doesn't mean she is making life better for women in this country. also abroad, slashing funding, international aid that helps women. look at global gag rule. access to family planning, contraception, abortion which is health care. it is something that is good for women all over the world. and this president opposes that. and women who stand with him do

>> michelle wolf controversial at the white house correspondents fire.hy comes back with her own misfire, standing strong with her own comrades, why she says the young comedian has nothing to apologize for. >>> but first, the "nightline" 5. . >> roomba's brushes grab and remove everything from fine dust to large debris and even pet hair. and roomba uses a system that detects dirt in high traffic areas of your home. so you can come home to clean floors every day. you you've and roomba from irobot. better together. >>> and number 1 is coming up in we need to help more tocalifornians get ahead.d, that's why antonio villaraigosa brought both parties together to balance the state budget with record investments in public schools... and new career training programs. as mayor of la, he brought police and residents together to get illegal guns off the streets and keep kids out of gangs, and on the right path. that's antonio villaraigosa. a governor for all of california. >>> good evening, and we begin here tonight with a standoff at the mexican border. it involve

it's been quite a ride. >>> comedian michelle wolf has no regrets about her performance at the white e correspondent's dinner. wolf tells npr, quote, i wouldn't change a single word. in an interview airing today on the fresh air radio show, wolf said she did not expect this level of controversy but is glad she stuck to her guns. >> i'm more surprised on what they're focussing on rather -- because i think i said more controversial things than the actual jokes that they're focussing on. i wanted to do something different. i didn't want to cater to the room. i wanted to cater to the outside audience and not betray my brand of comedy. >> the head of the correspondent's association expressed regrets that the jokes overshadowed the dinner's celebration of the first amendment. others say the reaction is overblown given the president's sustained attacks against the news media, including the white house press corps. michelle wolf said i think they have preconceived notions of how women will present themselves and i don't fit into that box. do you agree with that? >> i don't know. i will say th

. >> guy, did michelle wolf save the world or just the -- >> i know who this wonderful person michellef is, i have been a big fan for days of her. but i have pro problems with her. number one she was not nearly mean enough or personal enough about sarah huckabee sanders. she could have -- she didn't. she also wasn't allowed to speak for nearly long enough. i could have listened to her beautiful voice all night long personally. in response to you and what you just said, i have this very well thought out argument. hey hey, h -- ho, ho. >> how disgusting what you that worse -- was that correspondents dinner? michelle wolf, lock her up, send her to gitmo? >> i was there saturday night and i was horrified and i wish i walked out like some of those other conservatives. i wish i had had the guts to do that and tweet against the elitist liberal media. >> from your limousine? >> possibly from my limousine. but i wish liberals could understand how hateful that was and the first amendment is not about saying whatever you want to be mean all the time. >> who's the snowflake now? >> if you want to

well it was the first time for me to watch michele wolf live so the first thing i thought was well what's going on with her voice and then i thought that she clearly didn't pull her punches so some of it's was really funny for example when she talked about us in the media being obsessed with still no extreme and some instances she seems to have crossed a line for a number of people when she attacked members of the trump administration and her a new phase or when she joked about abortion and that's made some people cringe and you could hear groans from some temple but i have to say that she is a comedienne that likes to cross lines and she joked at both that as well when you could hear for sounds of disapproval in the ballroom she said that you know you should have done more research when you go through before that and i thought it was funny as well you're the good boy we know what the u.s. president thinks this is what we did earlier today the white house correspondents' dinner is dead as we know it was a total disaster and embarrassment to our great country you know what it stands for fa

look, she got what she wanted here, michelle wolf did.give her punches to people directly sitting next to her, sarah sanders, kellyanne, said horrible things about ivanka. day two, twitter followers doubled. she will not apologize. getting exactly out. stuart: she has netflix show. liz: why is she deleting tweets? stuart: 20,000 tweets deleted in the months leading up to her white house -- >> deleting tweets, number of tweets deleted would be offensive to her own cause. comparing serena williams to a man. that would be transphobeic. be careful about what she does defending the left. doesn't mind offending the right. when she wants to promote her career. liz: real credibility issue deleting tweets. stuart: however, shall we move on? >> move on, not give her anymore attention. how about that? stuart: she is irrespiesable. senator marco rubio says this about the fax cuts, quote. there is no evidence whatsoever that the money is being massively poured back into the american worker. without going into whether the tax cuts are good for workers

i spent tonight trying to find out how much michelle wolf was paid. nobody will give me a straight answer. i called three people who were on the dais, who actually picked up the phone, and no one would give me an answer. they said, they had no idea. >> sean: i would like to know about the anchors and reporters financial holdings, too, considering every voting cares about mine. >> hold on. the reason i am said this, we are told this is a scholarship dinner, and you should pay for your entertainment, but i feel really badly for the students. the president, vice president met them at the white house, they take pictures with them the other day, i had occasion to see me scholarship winners, i feel sorry for them, because they were almost an afterthought that night. i don't want anybody to say this was about them, the first amendment. when the president of the white house correspondents association stood up and said, an attack on one journalist is an attack on all journalists, well, folks, think about this. as an attack on one woman or two women an attack o

then they start giving michelle wolf the stink eye.that feeling of, like, i could see the repubbys, like, looking around, like, "oh, well if that -- if wilbur ross isn't laughing --" and by the way wilbur ross i could tip him like a cow. [ laughter ] he's that old guy in cabinet. he's like 120. he's the secretary of bull[ bleep ] or something. [ laughter ] but, i just wanted to see him and go [ blows ] and watch him go down. [ laughter ] anyway, and so what happens is the other people on the podium were giving her a look as if she was bombing and she wasn't. so, it's kind of like a virus. so, the first section gets uncomfortable, then the middle section. and i'm in the back, me and spicey are in the back. [ laughter ] so, oh, and that one has the nerve to give me the look, right. so, she makes a joke about him and i stood up like this, i go like this. [ clapping ] [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] >> seth: you put it out there. [ clapping ] there was no -- >> oh, yeah. >> seth: you were not subtle about it. >> no. >> seth: no subtle

michelle wolf, we saw her at the white house correspondents dinner she is back at it has a new show where she doubles down on that. saying i'm not attacking her. i'm attacking her personality. brian: she says she has a ugly personality meaning sarah huckabee sanders. >> not even -- i hardly saw that all you can talk about is sarah. i love working with her every single day here at the white house. she does a wonderful job representing the president and speaking to america on what is a very fast moving agenda here. the shear velocity and volume that goes on in this white house that the president was to work on we just reviewed them this morning. i hate to dignify it i would say generally speaking not about that woman but generally speaking i'm old enough to remember when comedians were funny.

michelle wolf at the white house correspondents' dinner gave a performance that was critiqued by someg particularly harsh on sarah sanders. i want to remind you what she said. let's listen. >> i actually really like sarah. i think she's very resourceful. like, she burns facts and then she uses that ash to create a perfect smoky eye. >> now, some people thought that michelle wolf was making a comment about her appearance, she said it was about the issue that sarah sanders says things that aren't true. >> burns facts. >> do we need to reassess the criticism of michelle wolf. >> maybe it is telling we're not continuing to hear the complaints that we were hearing. i think it has been helpful in a strange way to have rudy giuliani on tv, helpful to be reminded just how extraordinary these mistruths and disinformation campaign really is. it put the focus back where it needs to be and that is the president's deceit, it is such a disappointing moment in american history that this is such a big story, but it is. it has been since day one. and now what is it? day 400 and something. it continues

it's probably lies. >> woodruff: so, su, some comedians are out there today defending michele wolf butre was a lot of pushback about whether that was appropriate ann whether she went too far.en >> i wasn't there either. i was sitting on i my couch my living room watching it, and ten secon after she ended, i tweeted out that i thought her material and her delivery -- h material was vulgar and mane-spirited, nasty. i think much of what the president has said over the years is vulgar, mean-spirited and nasty, but what i found is, ifou criticize michele wolf, then critics of the president automatically think that you support -- they that if you criticize wolf, then you -- how do i say this? >> you condone what he's doing. eah. so it's very -- it's awkward. a i think both the president and the comedian can be wrong, but it's hard to hold that position- these da this day and age.. >> and here's the thing. every year, we have the same controversy. a comedian comes -- been nthappening since bill c. >> woodruff: and eveng before. and probably before that.t hetherdian comes in, saying something

>> reporter: michelle wolf is standing her ground and cnn thinks she deserves the nobel peace prize.on curse with sirius xm 115 here with that reaction online. that is really something. >> amid the flood of reaction to the white house correspondents dinner speech, some people criticized her jokes, others defendant her free-speech rights but cnn had a different take. >> you should be the one getting the nobel peace prize, she was able to do what nobody else has been able to do, get trump supporters to go on tv and defend women from being skewered and defended for their looks. >> will herself responding to backlash saying i wouldn't change a single word i said. i'm very happy with what i said and glad i stuck to my guns. folks on social media now weighing in. dustin says that is why trump will win a landslide in 2020, go back some career advice from kathy griffin and another twitter user says some people are incapable of admitting to a mistake little and learning from itself so much reaction coming in on this. >> parts of it were not funny. can't make a joke about abortion. and it was

press power brokers pundits and politicians and this year was no different comedian michelle wolf told a joke and her right to tell that joke was brought into question here is that joe. i actually really like sarah i think she's very resourceful like she burns facts and then she uses that ash to create a perfect smoke. maybe she's born with it maybe it's lies. spread of a lie. clearly she's making fun of sarah huckabee sanders pension for misleading the press which is by the way it long standing tradition of white house press secretary not her looks yet she's doing what she is the most michelle wolf of doing that and while it's common every year for one side or the other to be offended by the jokes it is not common for the white house correspondents association to disavow the comedian they invited and go so far as to release a very rare statement saying quote last night's program was meant to offer a unifying message about our common commitment to vigorous and freeze progress while honoring civility not to divide people unfortunately the entertainers monologue was not in the spirit of

. >> well, daily show alum, michelle wolf found herself in this, part, in the power at the white house correspondents dinner. she was, lambasted by the press. afterwards. they didn't really like what she was saying. she said this thing about sarah sanders. >> with the players. >> i actually really like sarah. i think she is very resourceful. but she burns fat and then she uses that ass to create a perfe perfect, maybe she's born with it, maybe she is live. >> was that a lookist thing? >> that was one of those jokes that tricks you into exposing how you feel about the subject matter. which is one of the most dangerous jokes in comedy. because it is a joke that relies on you to define it in many ways. and so, if you read the words of that joke, and you don't know who sarah huckabee sanders, all the joke is saying is somebody know house to turn facts into lies. and applies them as makeup. that can be used. >> i actually thought it was really unfair, the criticism she got. i read the whole thing. i saw interviews of her. i was there when stephen colbert in 2006. at again the people in room
