"Have I Got News for You" panelist Amber Ruffin was announced last month as headliner of the annual White House Correspondents Association dinner on Apr. 26, traditionally one of the few intentional comedy shows on C-SPAN and a place here barbs are made at official Washington--the board of the association decided unanimously to change the focus of the evening to more of a salute to journalists--although they say no relation, it did come after Trump's deputy chief of staff Taylor Budowich Muskmedia'd that Ruffin was a "second-rate comedian" and the dinner a "hate-filled and violence-inspiring event":

Not too surprisingly, Ms. Ruffin responded at the end of the monologue on tonight's Late Night.

It seems reasonable this will also come up during Saturday's episode of HIGNFY US, unless the show is off this week.
