Guests at the state dinner for Japan's prime minister will share the feel of walking over a koi pond

 Forget about a red carpet.  Jill Biden is honoring the friendship between the United States and Japan by transforming the State Floor of the White House into a “vibrant spring garden” for the state dinner she and President Joe Biden will host Wednesday for Prime Minister Fumio Kishida.

The first lady sounded especially excited about a replacement for the red carpet in the famous Cross Hall. The “stunning” floor covering will give more than 200 guests the feel of walking over a koi pond, a nod to fish that symbolize “friendship, peace, luck and perseverance,” she said at a media preview a day earlier.  ...

Guests arrive.
Is Bill waving at the buxom brunette? Is Hillary trying to smuggle in an illegal immigrant family under that tent?

The buxom brunette is Jeff Bezos' girlfriend Lauren Sanchez.

The menu (Oh thank goodness, Joe gets ice-cream)

The food is the center of any good state dinner. According to the White House, guests will be served a first course of house-cured salmon; a salad of avocados, red grapefruit, watermelon radish and cucumber; and shiso leaf fritters.

Dry-aged rib eye steak with blistered shishito pepper butter, fava beans, morels and cipollini will be the main course, with a sesame oil sabayon.

Dessert includes salted caramel pistachio cake, a matcha ganache; and ice cream — cherry ice cream, with raspberry drizzle.

DeNiro looks like an old drunk.

Biden looks like he hasn't the slightest clue where he is - or why.

 888high58888 I'd eat some of the salad, cut the salmon to look like I ate some of it,  eat the steak, move the rest of the dinner around to make it look like I ate some of it, have some dessert and yes, probably grab a burger on the way home.

I haven't seen any more photos from this, apart from Biden's granddaughter Finnegan and daughter Ashley. Oh well, one more clown show to miss.

I have been thinking about this state dinner and for some reason I started thinking about Lloyd Bridges' character of Tug Benson in Hot shots Part Deux, apparently someone else did too.

I agree she looks like a hooker and why she feels it's ok to be seen in public looking trashy, I don't know.

Clinton -- well, she now wears mumu's but at least she is displaying some decency.

Anyways, this is her ring ... she's dressed ok... at least she's covering up her 'girls'.

My guess is that she was rather pretty before she got all the enhancements.
Apparently, the plastic surgery profession has a lot of room for improvement.
