WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden poked fun at himself but took sharp aim at his election rival Donald Trump Saturday at the annual White House Correspondents' Association dinner, as protesters outside demonstrated against the conflict in Gaza.
A long list of VIP guests, including journalists and celebrities from Chris Pine to Molly Ringwald, arrived in black-tie attire as more than 100 protesters confronted attendees in front of the Washington Hilton hotel chanting "shame on you" and other slogans.
