First lady Jill Biden unveils White House holiday decorations
By Mark Moore

Quote
First lady Jill Biden decked the halls of the White House with a “We the People” theme for this holiday season, drawing inspiration from the US Constitution. 

The first lady, joined by a group of ​volunteers and National Guard leaders and families from across the country, will unveil the decorations later Monday, “offering a holiday message of unity and hope,” the White House said in a statement.

“The soul of our nation is, and always has been, ‘We the People,’” the first lady will say in prepared remarks. “And that is what inspired this year’s White House holiday decoration.”​  ...

Sorry, but I think the decorations look like crappola.  The sculptors aren't the greatest either.

How are the woke social justice warriors coping with the needless, wholesale slaughter of innocent trees to be used for Christmas decorations?

Has anyone thrown tree sap on a mall Santa in protest?

The problem with that theme is that there is no 'Sofa Room' in the White House.

The intended details are for the most part nice, but all in all the decorations are still pretty tacky looking.  I do like the Gold Tree honoring fallen members of the US military.  I also like that they displayed the Menorah.

The Biden White House has officially hung its Christmas stockings, but the holiday decorations are absent one family member: Hunter Biden’s out-of-wedlock daughter. ..............

The Advent candles and Hanukkah candles are conspicuously absent.  The Biden Whitehouse has removed the "Christ" from Christmas.

Every first lady decorates for Christmas, and in my opinion it's an excessive expenditure, no matter who she is. The bigger issue is that the first lady decides on the theme and general look of the decor. Jill is just a tacky person, so it should surprise no one that "her" decorations are so lacking in class or good taste.

Honestly, does anyone with a life really care.  The only fashion or holiday cues I take from the 1st Lady is what couch fabric swatch would look good as a dress.
