The annual White House Correspondents’ Dinner (WHCD) will likely have a little less luster in 2025 as White House cryptocurrency czar David Sacks will host his own dinner at the same time, according to Semafor’s Max Tani.
Trump named Sacks, the multi-billionaire co-founder of PayPal, White House cryptocurrency czar in December. He has been a staunch Trump ally, previously hosting fundraisers for Trump during his presidential campaign.
Sacks’s concurrent but separate party is another hit to the once-prestigious WHCD after the White House Correspondents’ Association (WHCA) reversed its decision to have anti-Trump comedian Amber Ruffin host the event.

Originally touting Ruffin as his top choice, WHCA President Eugene Daniels flipped, announcing that the association’s board unanimously decided not to have a comedian at all.
“I want to ensure that the focus is not on the politics of division,” he wrote in an email to WHCA reporters.
Ruffin told CNN’s Jake Tapper in February that she didn’t want President Donald Trump to appear at the WHCD.
“I don’t know that anyone’s looking forward to being in the same room as him,” she said.
Before the WHCA rescinded Ruffin’s hosting gig, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told the Daily Caller that Trump was still mulling a decision to attend the WHCD.
Trump did not attend the dinner at any point during his first term.
