73rd Annual Al Smith Dinner..........

The annual dinner raises money for needy children across New York City, but it’s also one of the biggest political roasts.

This year’s emcee, comedian Jim Gaffigan, poked fun at United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley.

“I personally have been a huge fan of Nikki Haley, ever since, well… ever since she resigned,” Gaffigan said to a room of applause.

Haley was the keynote speaker at Thursday’s soiree, which has raised hundreds of millions of dollars for charity over the years.

This event usually airs on C-Span every year and it is always pretty funny. I don't see an air date but if anyone happens to see one please give us all a heads up.
