Comedian Roy Wood Jr. joked that billionaire Harlan Crow addressed the recent scandal engulfing Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas on unreported trips around the world “like an Instagram model” as he roasted him over his ties to the GOP billionaire megadonor Harlan Crow at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner on Saturday.
Wood unloaded on Thomas as he emphasized that billionaires like Crow “always come up with something new to buy.”
“This man bought a Supreme Court justice,” the “The Daily Show” correspondent said. “Do you understand how rich you have to be to buy a Supreme — a Black one on top of that. There’s only two in stock and Harlan Crow owns half the inventory,” joked Wood.
“We can all see Clarence Thomas but he belongs to billionaire Harlan Crow. And that’s what an NFT is,” he added.
During his performance, Wood didn’t hold back jokes at the expense of Biden, either.
He poked fun at the president after Biden closed his speech with a reference to the “Dark Brandon” meme.
“Y’all, give it up for Dark Brandon. Thank you, I’m happy to be here. Real quick, Mr. President, I think you left some of your classified documents up here,” joked Wood.
Watch Wood’s take on Clarence Thomas below.
