President Donald Trump delivered remarks for “nearly an hour” at the dinner party David Ellison hosted in Washington, D.C., on Thursday evening “honoring” Trump, per the New York Times.

Ellison organized the event in Trump’s honor (as well as to recognize CBS News’ White House reporters) as his Paramount Skydance is looking to win regulatory approval from the Trump administration’s Justice Department for the $111 billion takeover of Warner Bros. Discovery. On Wednesday, WBD shareholders overwhelmingly approved the company’s sale to Paramount.
