A jovial President Joe Biden expressed thanks as he took part in the annual White House tradition of pardoning turkeys from becoming Thanksgiving dinner: Meet Chocolate and Chip.
"It's a wonderful Thanksgiving tradition here at the White House. There's a lot to say about it, but it's chilly outside so I'm gonna keep this short. Nobody likes it when their turkey gets cold," Biden joked during remarks spanning about ten minutes while the temperature dipped to the mid-40s.
The birds will live out the rest of their lives at North Carolina State University, joining the Wolfpack. With all the fun and frivolity, Biden did have some more serious thoughts to share on the holiday and the reason for the season, celebrating that this year will see families gather more freely than in years past, when the COVID-19 pandemic inhibited the holiday season.
"And think about the scientists or researchers, doctors and nurses keeping us safe through the pandemic. Two years ago, we couldn't even safely have Thanksgiving with the large family gatherings.""Folks. Let's remember, all political fighting goes on, you read about. Let's remember one thing. This is the United States of America," he said.
