Trump Addresses Rescheduled White House Correspondents' Dinner After April ShootingPreviousNext

The White House Correspondents' Dinner was rescheduled to July 24 at the Waldorf Astoria after a shooting at the original April event forced its cancellation. President Donald Trump attended and delivered a speech, signaling a toned-down tone compared to his planned remarks. First Lady Melania Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio did not attend due to scheduling conflicts. The event featured heightened security, a smaller guest list, and awards honoring journalists and Secret Service personnel involved in the April incident.
