The annual Easter festivities are set to brighten up the White House in April, but this year there are two unexpected twist – the first twist is that “Dr.” Jill Biden is incharge of it and the second is the most dramatic and much-talked-about environment organization has decided to step in and impose their own set of demands for this years celebrations. You’ll get a kick out of this.
The Washington Examiner reports, angling for first lady Jill Biden to ditch the use of hen-laid eggs for the White House Easter Egg Roll, PETA today appealed to the hearts of the pet-loving first family.
Instead, PETA President Ingrid Newkirk suggested using wooden eggs from the White House Historical Association or painted stones.
This comes after the White House announced a ticket lottery begins Thursday for the event, which will take place on the South Lawn on April 10.
According to a spokesperson for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, the Biden family has a special relationship with animals as dog owners.
The PETA president tried every trick in the book. Even claiming in her letter, the high cost of eggs and the possibility of a worldwide avian flu as reasons to make a symbolic change from real eggs to fake ones for the annual roll and race.
Perhaps this year we will have a repeat of Joe Biden being baby sat by the easter bunny.
Remember This? WATCH
Over the past few years, it has become clear that PETA’s requests are largely becoming a joke. Most of us just view them as a cute PR stunt with no real follow-through, and for the most part, the organization has come to accept their role. It’s like when they requested a human replace the groundhog on Groundhog Day back in February, but we all knew it was never going to happen. Yet, you never know what direction this administration might take things, and maybe one of these days we will be shocked if Dr. Biden chooses to respond to their request. That will only solidify the clown world we live in.
Let’s continue this conversation, in the comments below.
