US President Donald Trump spoke at the White House correspondents' annual dinner on Friday, three months after the original event was interrupted by an assassination attempt. The dinner, which had been postponed, was held with heightened security and a smaller number of journalists in attendance, reflecting a scaled-back atmosphere. Trump, who wore a lapel pin reading "2028," delivered a speech lasting almost an hour. During his remarks, he told the press corps that "the show must go on" and continued his criticism of the media. The event took place as the war against Iran, initiated by Trump in coordination with Israel, continued. The mood was notably different from previous years due to the assassination attempt and the ongoing conflict.
