Strong winds knocked over the National Christmas Tree near the Ellipse at the White House on Tuesday afternoon.

The evergreen tree, located in the northeast quadrant of the Ellipse near the White House, has been erected and decorated as a Christmas tree every year since 1923. The winds knocked this year's tree over just two days before the planned lighting ceremony on Thursday, which is due to be attended by President Joe Biden.
 
The National Park Service is currently assessing the damage. A crane was brought in to help raise it again.

The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.

Ten to one Biden makes a announcement putting the blame for the 'unprecedented' high winds knocking the tree down on climate change/globull warming and push for the need to eliminate fossil fuels **nononono* Of course everyone knows that the greatest threat to Americans comes from Fossil Fools like him.

"Looks Great! Little full. Lot of sap."
"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn

That was my reaction when I heard that the tree fell
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

My reaction was more of one with religious connotations. You know the old "spite" thingy.
