President Trump on Tuesday pardoned two turkeys at the White House ahead of Thanksgiving
Butter wins "National Thanksgiving Turkey" title over Bread
President Trump on Tuesday pardoned two turkeys at the White House ahead of Thanksgiving — a decades-long tradition in which the president uses the power of the office to keep a pair of the meaty birds off holiday tables.
Alluding to Democrats' ongoing impeachment inquiry, the president joked that both turkeys "already received subpoenas to appear in Adam Schiff's basement on Thursday."
"Thankfully, Bread and Butter have been specially raised by the Jacksons to remain clam under any condition, which will be very important because they've already received subpoenas to appear in Adam Schiff's basement on Thursday. It's true," the president joked. "Hundreds of people have. It seems the Democrats are accusing me of being too soft on turkey. But Bread and Butter, I should note that unlike previous witnesses, you and I have actually met. It's very unusual. I expect this pardon will be a very popular one with the media. After all, turkeys are closely related to vultures. I don't know if I like that line, but there is a little truth to it."
