The Magnificent Mischief of Tad Lincoln

“For years I covered the White House turkey pardon, which people will remember. They bring two turkeys out. He pardons one of them or both of them. I didn’t realize what the origins of this was. And years ago, somebody in the Trump White House told me it was JFK or Truman who started the tradition. So I did a deep dive and discovered, no, it was Tad Lincoln and Abraham Lincoln.” — Raymond Arroyo
