President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump will participate in the 78th annual Thanksgiving Turkey Pardoning Ceremony in the White House Rose Garden this afternoon, where two lucky turkeys from the Presidential Flock will be “eighty-sixed” from the menu.
Per CNN, “Unlike previous years, just one turkey will take part in the ceremonial pardon, injecting little suspense into the process. (Both turkeys, according to the office of the first lady, will ultimately be spared.) First lady Melania Trump’s office invited the American people to vote for which turkey would participate by texting ‘Gobble’ or ‘Waddle’ to 45470.“
The two turkeys set to be spared are Gobble, weighing 52 lbs, and Waddle, weighing 50 lbs, both hatched in North Carolina in July.
Following the ceremony, the birds will live the rest of their life out at North Carolina State University’s Prestage Department of Poultry Science in Raleigh
Via the Office of the First Lady:
President Trump is sure to employ some of his signature jokes during the ceremony, which will mark his fifth as President.
The event is scheduled to begin at 12 pm ET.
