HuffPost Invites Workers Fired By Trump To The White House Correspondents’ Dinner

Washington, DC - April 23, 2025 - HuffPost, the award-winning online news organization, has extended an invitation to three individuals who were fired by the Trump administration to attend this year's White House Correspondents' Dinner (WHCD) as HuffPost guests.

HuffPost guests include:

• Rohit Chopra, former Commissioner of the Federal Trade Commission
• Hampton Dellinger, former Special Counsel of the U.S. Office of Special Counsel
• Andrew Bivins, former USAID Western Balkans Country Affairs Officer

These individuals were removed from their positions under circumstances that underscored the Trump administration and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE)'s hostility to oversight, transparency, and independent reporting.

HuffPost's relentless coverage of the Trump administration has led to blowback from the White House, including HuffPost's temporary expulsion from the White House press pool. Despite these obstacles, HuffPost has remained steadfast in its mission to deliver unbiased, investigative journalism that holds those in power to account.
