3:40 "Don't groan - pass legislation!"
Wonderful!
Are you human? Look at the bright line between comments and likes by actual humans and by robotic circle-jerking sock puppets.
About 10% might be human. But CZcams likes to censor the humans.
Can you believe the google is profiting from the fakes? Me neither.
That's exactly what I came to say!
They cared about classified documents till Biden did it lol ... that part really had me laughing soo hard.
That’s how you use your platform for good when you’re given an opportunity like this
@@will-ob7pr 🤣🤣 because it’s true, the double standards both political parties have is ridiculous
Roy wood jr nailed it.who watched it more than 2 times hit the like button
I sure did like 3 times
Bout to watch it again.
Missed the first part the second time… which means I'll watch the entire thing, basically.
This is my second time today!
Looks like 23 people so far breh. Great work. 🎉
Roy Wood Jr is unforgiving and unapologetic national treasure.
“Don’t groan pass legislation” Roy Wood Jr.
This was the best line of the whole thing
Was just about to say this 👏🏻👏🏻
🎉❤❤❤❤
Clever remix of “don’t boo, vote”
Note for communist doctrine out law all comedy and humor.
No jokes No laughing anymore. Mandate making jokes about the party illegal and imprisonable.
“Don’t groan, pass legislation” you ain’t never lied!
RIGHT!!!
That joke landed super flat, but it was the bona fide truth!
@@tanya45096 I believe that was the point. What psycho would laugh at children being slaughtered.
🎯🎯🎯 thee absolute TRUTH
@@tanya45096 that what He was conveying pass legislation that was brilliant 🤣🤣🤣
Politicians say silly things in a serious way.
Comedians say serious things in a silly way.
So true!
Who said that?
Clever
It's a good thing only bots watch CNN MSNBC if democrat voters saw this it would be a disaster ...
They cared about classified documents till Biden did it lol ... that part made me laugh.
When he broke character and talked about his Father and Mother as activists just wow
" Billionaire Harlan Crow flying Clarence Thomas all over the world like an Instagram Model" is what killed me 😂
That was hilarious
14:32 "This man bought a Supreme Court justice."
The fact that Roy Wood jr. can casually say it like that in that public forum is the clearest harbinger of the end of Thomas's career.
CT has stained the Court. 💩
6 right wing justices. Half of whom definitely committed perjury just to get the _lifetime appointment_ … forgive me for being cynical but I don’t think his career is going anywhere any time soon. All of Trump’s justices are corrupt. Thomas too. And IMO the other 2 right wing justices that are ok with all of it are just as criminal. Our Supreme Court was the COUP of the Federalist Society that happened right in front of us while everyone allowed it.
🤞🤞🤞🙏
I posted elsewhere that if it was the UK Thomas would have started writing his resignation within minutes of that line dropping. The fact that he is still in post highlights two things. The US needs to get a grip on this sort of thing as it should not have been allowed to get anywhere near this far. The second thing it highlights is the arrogance and lack of shame that resides in that despicable shell named Clarence Thomas.
The Chairman of the BBC resigned this week. It turns out that he had facilitated the connection for Boris Johnson (the then Prime Minister) to secure a loan. Johnson then appointed him as Head of the BBC. As soon as the investigation report being published saying there was some conflict of interest the Chairman resigned. The interesting thing is that without that undeclared action he would probably have still got the role but it is the optics that matter at that level. That is something that Roberts and the other justices (all eight) need to recognise as they all signed the letter to Congress saying "nothing to see here" as regards testimony to Congress. They have just put a massive bull's eye on the court.
And CT is an NFT 🤦
“I’m like Mitch McConnell I ain’t got no soul” 😂😂😂
Well Said 😂
louis armstrong has soo much soul though? lol
@@iluvugoldenblue whataboutwhataboutshalalalala
It’s funny because so often McConnell acts genuinely surprised whenever people get mad at him for doing evil stuff. I honestly think he sneezed at age four with no one around to say god bless you.
@@iluvugoldenblue BLACKS HAVE OWNED YOU YOUR WHOLE LIFE AND TOOK YOUR GIRL IN HIGH SCHOOL TOO 😂
Roy Wood Jr., is suave as can be. Great speech. Even better delivery. Thanks Mr Wood! More please.
"But when he wake up from that nap, works gets done!"
Priceless 😅. Even President Joe Biden laughed
“We can all see Clarence but he belongs to billionaire Harlan Crow and thats what an NFT is. “. Savage.
Yes that was a really fun one that went over the audience heads…
I actually Googled NFT, and listened to Roy tell that part of set again, and talk about deep. Bruh went deeep on em, how he set the whole NFT part up.
Clarence Thomas =NFT=Uncle tom=house nig.....
It was a thing of beauty and brilliance.
I saw this comment at the exact time Roy was saying it in the video.
💯
Roy Wood Jr. you did your dad and the profession proud. Thank you for speaking truth to power.
Yes!! On every point he spoke about he nailed it.. all the way to finding colleges… ❤❤
He sure did!
and his mom!
@@carbine090909 agreed!
That was funny & inspirational
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVVVVVEEEEE this speech!!!!! Both funny and insightful. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Roy freaking killed it!!! He needs to be the host of The daily show
Oh god no. It would be so boring
@@tioswift3676 Oh no it wouldn’t. He’s Brilliant! Love him so. You sir have no joy in your life.
No. He's great in what he does just like the other members of the DS team, but that doesnt mean they would make good hosts. Besides, that would take their attention away from doing all the great stuff they do now that you all love.
YES!!!! PLEASE!!!! ❤❤❤
The truth for free. That's what comedy is and that's what Roy does. Thank you!
“Don’t groan, pass legislation” 👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
*I love me some Roy Wood Jr.!!!!!*
Excellent job, and I know Momma Joyce is so proud of you!!! 🙌
I have always loved Roy Wood Jr and love him even more now, especially after learning about his mom and dad...mad respect for his whole family!
Possibly the best Correspondent's Dinner monologue ever. Funny, sarcastic and spot on about the challenges facing journalism theses days. Well done Roy!!
I said the SAME thing as I was watching. Never laughed so Hard from one of these before.
Kimmel wasn't Bad.
Stephen Colbert would like a word
Amazing!!! Thank you, sir!😊
Let's be honest, they've all been great!
This is the best correspondence dinner I have ever watched. He nailed it!
Agreed 100% ❤🎉😅😅😅
Agreed
His cracks revealed all the cracks.
I didn't know Roy Wood Jr. but now I do. That was some killer material - relevant and unapologetic. Bravo 👏
The daily show!l you didn’t watch that when Trevor Noah was on? Oh man. Hilarious stuff.
He came onto my radar when he took over "This is not happening" when Ari Shafir left. I don't have cable so I just catch clips of stuff and started to see him on TDS and thought that he was really good.
I'm in Canada, so that's my excuse 😌 But I do watch a *lot* of American media.
@@ivocanevo no further explanation needed lol.
@@ivocanevo better late then never
He did really really good. He spoke truth and mixed it with humor. Son of a reporter and an educator....old school parenting.
It "well" not "GOOD".
You sound like you're trying to convince yourself.
I don't think I've ever enjoyed a WHCD monolog as much as this one. Roy Wood, Jr. is a master.
Facts on facts on facts!! Roy kept it 100
Looking at the people who WANT to laugh but you can tell they're afraid to. LOL
😂🎯
GOOD JOB Roy Wood Jr.❤This is just wonderful!!! everyone should be ready to take the TRUTH, no matter HOW , WHEN or WHERE it comes💯💯💯💯💯
You can feel the discomfort in the room. The truth is the truth.
Many don’t know this man was a journalist in his former life. Love this guy!!
"I'm like Mitch McConnell, I ain't got no soul"
😂😂😂
Mitch is considered a RINO by pretty much every republican ...
That means *they think he is a Democrat* because of how he acts and how he votes.
Think about that.
Then re-read what you wrote i agree with you, he is souless and at this point im a republican too.
looool
This SLEW me!!! 😂😂😂😂
Class act! What he says about local journalists and about his mother is important and heartfelt.
Agree 💯 I love Roy Wood Jr even more now than I already did!
Roy Wood Jr. also has a journalism degree.
the "cl" is silent.
@@bubbiesdad You tell lies like it's a full-time job, announcing to the world that you are grossly misinformed, no one cares what you think because we know that you don't think.
@@bubbiesdad Such an amazingly clever response. But with such a brilliant choice of a username, we wouldn’t expect anything less.
I just love Roy Wood, both when he's being a comedian and when he's being serious.
He's both funny and deep!
❤agree
Kudos to Roy Wood, Jr. & his family! Great set!
Roy Wood dont hold back on Neither PARTY. Good work Roy!😂
Love, love, love Roy Wood Jr. This was one of the best White House correspondents dinner. I watch it four times. Roy, I hope jou come to Europe with a show. You're lovely.
Totally agree 💯
I'm on my 3rd viewing myself lol. It was sooooo good.
Omg I thought I was the only one who watched this multiple times lol! It was bloody brilliant!💯🔥
Agreed. His set was on point, classy and weirdly respectful.
@Lena Baylor I've seen it now twice in it's entirety
One of the best correspondents dinner. He was killing it!
Master full. I really loved it! So funny and at the same time so intelligent . Bravo !!!!!!
Thank you to Trevor Noah for finding and highlighting brilliant comedians and orators. RWJr.!
What an awesome presentation. The brother was funny, articulate, poise and showed his command presence while delivering a superb presentation.
… He worked at the Daily show before Trevor though?!!😅
@@SketchybrainD uhh, that's SCARY don't you think? did you only hear the ads or did you find the humor in the speach? if you did'nt find the humor, then I'm sorry for you :)
All a bunch of pathetic hypocrites!!! Liberal Logic at best.
He found Trevor 😂
Can you even IMAGINE someone talking like this in the capital building in China 🇨🇳 or in Russia 🇷🇺 ?? And a black man at that !! This is PROOF of progress and especially for FREEDOM of SPEECH 🎤 and DEMOCRACY!!! It is why I LOVE my country 🇺🇸 and am still willing to lay my life down to defend it and our values for others around the world 😊! The Autocrats of the world LOVE to blame us when their own people strive for FREEDOM. What they need to do is take a nice LONG look at what they are doing to make their people so unhappy to begin with!!
?
Or in Zimbabwe 🇿🇼?
Brilliant!! The best is seeing the reactions of people in the audience. There's truth in comedy and that's what makes this so special.
I’m so proud of Roy. I remember when he used to do hilarious prank calls on the Buckwilde Morning Show in Birmingham. Now he’s doing sets at the White House Correspondents Dinner. Love to see it 👏🏽
Wow!!! He killed it . One of the best in many many years.
Agree 💯 best White House correspondents dinner since Colbert in 2005!
Watch Trevor Noahs
He was funny , Bashed on everyone even though he was inaccurate on a couple subjects.
@@rogerjones5898 Don't let facts get in the way. This was one great routine. Couldn't have done it without the schmucks either running or trying to run this country.
@@rogerjones5898 …… what subjects would those be, I must have missed something…….
He killed it!!!!!!!🫡🫡🫡🫡🫡
I did not realize how amazing the Wood family is, what a family of Legends!
What an amazing job from start to finish! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽I already liked Roy Wood Jr., but my love and respect for his talent just shot up! 🚀 I especially loved how he took the time to honor his parents and worked those stories so perfectly in the his speech!
Only a seasoned comedian could bring a crowd back from that school shooting joke.
Great material !!! Love the Dominion Voting slogan ...
make that Smartmatic in every booth!
Roy was already one of the funniest people I've ever heard/seen, but to see/hear him share his heart was priceless.
Barely
It was beautiful. Wow.
100% Agreed.
I love how he said "Drag queens are not at your kids schools to groom them, they've got shootings. " Then, he said, " Don't groan. Pass legislation. "
Omg... Maybe the best one yet! Roy Wood killed it 😍😍😍
That NFT joke was gold 😂😂😂
was funny but CT is RICH and does not need a Billion Airs Hand Out ! Or you believe CT should just hang out with Poor people cause hes Black, I bet every supreme court member only hangs out with Rich People , They have Millions ! Why would they hang out with poor people ?
🤣
🤣🤣🤣
This the one!!!!!!😂😂😂😂
That joke is still unfolding weeks later 🤯
this was a masterclass
Those Clarence Thomas jokes were hilarious 😂… what a great set.. loved the seamless weaving of serious moments with the moments of levity and laughter. 👏🏾👏🏾
Mentioning his parents brought a real smile too me.
Funny and thought-provoking. Roy was brilliant. He also did an excellent job of hosting The Daily Show for a week.
He was OK. In the past, there have been way better stand-ups at the White House correspondents Dinner. Hasan Minhaj, Stephen Colbert, Trevor Noah,… His hosting job was also OK, but Hasan’s was outstanding.
@@Rich996x are you trying to be relevant?🙄🤔😒
@@athenare313 ... and failing. But keep swinging!
Honestly @@naylas3908, even though I'm a MASSIVE Trevor Noah fan, I really think Roy did a much better job here than Trevor did last year. 🤷🏾♀️ Roy's content was a lot more impactful and also way funnier.
Even setting my personal opinions aside: you can also see & hear the difference in the crowd responses. I like em both [Trevor more than Roy], but there's really no denying it here: Roy overshadowed Trevor this time.
WOW! Thank you Roy for telling it like it is!
Almost telling it like it is ! some topics he was wrong on! but that's my opinion and he is intitled to his ! I love when people criticize threw humor instead of making people angry like the media does !
@@rogerjones5898 ……. Fox “news” is just propaganda and misinformation……as is news max and the rest of right wing whack-o’s…. if you stop watching and believing all that rhetoric, lies, misinformation and propaganda you will find that you are much happier….. I know Putin plays that crap all the time in your troll bot pens but just try and shut it out ….. stay off the refer it’s making you paranoid…….

This was genuinely pleasant to watch. Knee slapping humor mixed with razor sharp wit, blended in with some uncomfortable truths.
This guy’s tongue is so sharp that many won’t even know they are bleeding until long after the cut.
We need more of this please.
This was one of the best correspondence dinner remarks! Well done!!
"Don't groan, pass legislation" *chefs kiss
The only correspondence dinner speech I watched several times...too funny.
Agree 💯 I watched it four times already 😂
They weren't ready! 😂😂
Roy Wood Jr. hitting hard like Bat Man
Don't growl pass Legislation. This needs to be on T-shirts everywhere!
O.M.G. This is hysterical! What a time to be alive.
I know he was in the lions den and got a lot of growls but I hope Mr. Roy knows the folks out here suffering from the oligarchy are lovin' and appreciating his words.
This was so excellent - I watched it twice. I never knew this much about Roy Wood Jr. What an impressive background/family. He seriously knew what he was talking about. So many in the audience somewhat uncomfortable yet covering up their urge to laugh. Yeah, I can definitely see him taking over The Daily Show. I like the others, but now knowing Roy's background/degree in journalism - I think he can give the perfect message/laughs/truths for this current time. He can be a little smoother on his comedic deliveries - but that will work itself out. I think it would - or he may actually want something more serious. Whatever - this was great.
In our 21st Century,

“everyone got documents….oo look a Chinese spy balloon …😅
The most intelligent and informed person I have seen in a long time.

Oh lil Rog…you just love being lied to…
@@rogerjones5898 you do realize that there is public evidence he lied on air?
@@paradoxmo Tuckems made a video CONFESSING that he lies on air all the time. It's readily available for anyone not afraid to shatter their dreams.
This man is not only a comedian. He is an intelligent comedian.
Telling the truth with humor. Priceless! Truth delivery with a cushion. Thanks Mr. Wood.
For him to share the moment with his mom in his big moment to shine was pure class. Amazing people
Amen.
Ok mMM MMM M M M..
As he should.🙏💯

This is why I financially support monthly Howard University School of Law. It is disgraceful that those kids are sleeping in tents. That never happened at Harvard!
Howard? Kamala Harris college yaaa cause she cares about kids ... "What do we know about 18 to 24 year olds? Their stupid, they make really bad decisions, so we focused on that age population" ~ and that IS a quote from her its on video, she goes on and on about it and its not pleasant to watch.
Or Harvard? Because ccp spy after ccp spy being busted there inspires real confidence. (only remind of that because yet again, another one the other day).
Wow, I knew nothing about this. Educating myself now.
Lesson learned, thank you.
WTH? That is despicable.
Uck Howard...only the elite...
LOVE LOVE LOVE ROY WOOD JR!!!! He is absolutely fabulous!!! Extremely FUNNY !!! Hilarious !!!
Well done Roy. 😂😂😂
That Nft joke was golden
What a fantastic job…. Invoking his father’s career and legacy allowed him to inject some truth about the current state of news and journalism. Much respect to him…
Nailed it, Roy. Well done!
Nailed it Roy ,had this saved for a week knew he'd nail it
Home run! A great balance with bite, humor and serious issues. Great Job!! Well done
Roy Wood did a great job. Some of his jokes didn't get the response they deserved, but that has to do with the audience. He had me laughing throughout his set.
Truth hurts
@@davido9080 yeah, and there were both ashamed and uncomfortable (like the very truthful dig at congress) silences
He did that 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 so good to see him getting all these opportunities…keep doing your thing King🖤 👑🖤 Daily show just hire him as the permanent host already
Thank you, Thank you, thank you! I'm moved to tears. It was my mom who with love and grace inspired my mind and heart! You are a great soul!
Great job Roy Wood Jr. Truth telling isn’t always comfortable.
Yes that's good. Not stuffy, but an underlying witty intelligence as well as all the presentation magic. And the end is worth waiting for.
Thanks for telling me without spoiling it. I’m going to stop reading until I finish watching. 😊
I'm like Mitch McConnell, I ain't got no soul.😂😂😂😂
Don’t growl, pass legislation!
Best line of the night

Legalize abortions so there will be less kids to shoot. Bringing both sides together like the good old days.
I'll give anyone here all of Dark Brandon's ill-gotten fortune, IF you can even name any type of legalization that makes any type of sense.....
Fantastic Roy!

The best part was seeing the pride in Roy Woods Jr's mother's face. ❤

What legislation....
Loved how they panned the camera Over to Biden and he was as stoned as a statue
Excellent job Roy. That is not an easy crowd but you navigated those shark infested waters with comedic skill and grace!!!!!
He nailed it! Flawless
Absolutely priceless comedic monologue layered with truth ❤
One of the best WHCD headliners. Congrats Roy!
One of the best speeches at a WHCD of all time. Bravo!!!
He never mentioned East Palestine😮
Bhaaaaaa😂😂😂
Roy Wood Jr. is so smooth and precise with his roasting...he's basically an Iron Chef!
What a great job Roy wood JR you have done.
Roy did a marvelous job. This has got to be one of the best correspondence comedic host.
I watched this set 3 times on 3 different channel.
