President Biden Pardons Minnesota Turkeys Peach and Blossom in Final White House Thanksgiving Ceremony
Nov 25, 2024, 04:11 PM
President Joe Biden pardoned two turkeys, Peach and Blossom from Northfield, Minnesota, at the White House on Monday, continuing the annual Thanksgiving tradition that began in 1947 with President Harry Truman. The ceremony took place on the South Lawn ahead of Thanksgiving, marking the start of Biden's last holiday season at the White House. During the event, he stated, 'It's my last time... Let me say to you: it's been the honor of my life,' and 'I'm forever grateful.' The turkeys, roughly 17 weeks old, will be spared from becoming Thanksgiving dinner and will 'join the free birds of the United States of America,' according to Biden. He also quipped, 'Keep calm and gobble on.'
