The White House Correspondents' Dinner was held again on Friday night, after the first attempt to hold the dinner back in April was interrupted by an assassination attempt against President Donald Trump.
President Trump was in attendance again, and he delivered an enthusiastic roast of the media, as well as some jokes about people in his own administration, such as the Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Some of the media, of course, had their typical sour reaction to Trump roasting them, as we reported.

Now, I have to admit that when I was a kid, I liked doing magic, so I wanted to bring you some of mentalist Oz Pearlman's act from the dinner.
Oz put Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche on the spot. He asked him to secretly count how much money he had in his wallet, tell him to lie about the amount (Blanche said $130), then Oz would guess the right amount.

Then, in another trick, Oz asked people, including Fox News national correspondent Kevin Corke, to think of a person, living or dead, whom they would like to interview. Oz guessed several names correctly of other people. But he even pulled in a member of the audience to help guess the person of whom Corke was thinking, which was a unique spin.
“I’m going to do something exceptionally crazier, you’re going to talk about this for years.”

Oz also had Blanche sign a bill and sit on it. Then he had members of the audience, including U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz, choose important dates and random numbers. When those numbers were multiplied, they worked out to 53,670,682.

Oz then turned back to Blanche and asked him to stand up and look at the serial number of the bill he was sitting on. Audience members were astonished when Blanche said it was indeed No. 53,670,682, the same number.
Now you can probably figure out part of the trick if you watch the video closely. Hint: misdirection and talking can cover up what you're doing. But he put it over pretty well.
Editor's Note: The mainstream media continues to deflect, gaslight, spin, and lie about President Trump, his administration, and conservatives.
