Here’s your laugh for the day.
President Trump on Tuesday made two important pardons.
While standing outside of the White House President Trump pardoned two turkeys named “Gobble” and “Waddle.”
While doing the pardons President Trump poked fun at Biden’s previous pardon of the turkey’s Peach and Blossom.
Watch the hilarious moment here:
Backup here if needed:
TRUMP: “Sleepy Joe Biden used an autopen last year for the Turkey Pardon so I have determined that last year’s Turkey Pardons are totally invalid…
We have located last year’s Turkeys, Peach and Blossom, and they were on their way to be processed but I have stopped that… pic.twitter.com/tsjh8eunBC

NBC News reported more on Trump participating on the longstanding tradition:
President Donald Trump on Tuesday added two Thanksgiving turkeys to his long list of second-term pardons, offering the birds a dose of his much-discussed presidential immunity.
After a White House speech that felt more like a campaign rally than a symbolic ceremony, Trump spared Gobble and Waddle from appearing on Thanksgiving dinner plates. He also joked that he was pardoning last year’s turkeys, Peach and Blossom, after a thorough Justice Department investigation found that President Joe Biden’s autopen use invalidated their pardons. “They were on their way to being processed,” he said.
He also quipped that he was considering naming the turkeys Chuck and Nancy — in a reference to Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi — but that he wouldn’t be pardoning them if that were the case. “I would never pardon those people,” he said.
He then got into immigration, crime and other issues, while also taking time to mock Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker, a Democrat. “I refuse to talk about the fact that he’s a fat slob,” Trump said, before adding that “I’d like to lose a few pounds, too, by the way.”
Here’s more footage sure to make you laugh:
“The turkeys go by the names of Gobble & Waddle.”
“When I first saw the pictures I thought we should call them … CHUCK AND NANCY.”
“But then I realized I would be pardoning them. And I would NEVER pardon those two people.”
