During the annual White House Thanksgiving ceremony, President Donald Trump joked that last year’s turkey pardons were “null and void” because former President Joe Biden used an autopen.
Trump said he had “determined” that the 2024 turkeys, Peach and Blossom, were never properly pardoned and humorously added that “every other person Biden pardoned” was invalid “other than… where’s Hunter?”
He went on to say the two birds had been “tracked down” and that he was now officially pardoning them, continuing the Thanksgiving tradition as he prepared to pardon this year’s turkeys, Gobble and Waddle.

00:30Thank you very much, and I hope you like our new,
00:37beautiful patio with matching stone to the White House.
00:41If this were grass today, you'd be sinking into the
00:43mud like they've done for many years, and you would
00:46be very unhappy.
00:47Please, thank you very much.
00:50This was a big day.
00:51It was a pardon day for a very important beast.
00:58On behalf of the First Lady and the entire Trump
01:00family, I want to wish all Americans a very, very
01:04happy Thanksgiving.
01:05It's a great time of the year, and our country is
01:07doing really well, economically, like we've
01:09never done before.
01:11Today, we continue a time-honored American
01:14tradition.
01:16Boy, that's a well-trained turkey.
01:21See how happy he is?
01:23In a few moments, I will grant a full, absolute, and
01:26unconditional presidential pardon to two handsome
01:30Thanksgiving turkeys.
01:32And this is their lucky day.
01:33This is a lucky day for them.
01:35But before going any further, I want to make an
01:38important announcement, because you remember last
01:41year, after a thorough and very rigorous
01:44investigation by Pam Bondi and all of the people at
01:50the Department of Justice, the FBI, the CIA, the
01:54White House Counsel's Office, and the Department
01:57of Everything.
01:59We have a Department of Everything.
02:00You know what that is?
02:01I think that's called the White House.
02:04Into a terrible situation caused by a man named
02:08Sleepy Joe Biden.
02:10He used an auto pen last year for the turkey's
02:13pardon.
02:14So I have the official duty to determine, and I
02:18have determined that last year's turkey pardons are
02:20totally invalid, as are the pardons of about every
02:25other person that was pardoned other than, where's
02:30Hunter?
02:32No, Hunter's was good.
02:33That was the one pardon, Pam, that was good, right?
02:35The rest of them are all invalid.
02:36I don't know what the hell you're going to do about
02:38that, but that's now we're going to take a little of
02:40the joking.
02:41That is a mess.
02:42But they're hereby null and void.
02:45The turkeys known as Peach and Blossom last year
02:49have been located, and they were on their way to be
02:51processed, in other words, to be killed.
02:54But I have stopped that journey, and I am
02:57officially pardoning them.
03:00And they will not be served for Thanksgiving dinner.
03:04We saved them in the nick of time.
03:06This one has plenty of time, but they were saved in
03:08the nick of time.
03:10We're thrilled to be joined today by Vice
03:12President J.D. Vance, Second Lady Usha Vance,
03:16their daughter Mirabelle, and along with Attorney
03:19General Pam Bondi, Secretaries Marco Rubio,
03:22Scott Besant, Pete Hegseth, Brooke Rollins,
03:26Howard Lutnick, Linda McMahon, Scott Turner,
03:30Administrator Lee Zeldin, who's done a great job.
03:34A nuclear power plant gets approved in less than a week.
03:37Okay?
03:38I'm only kidding, but pretty close to that.
03:41And we have more.
03:42Where is Lee?
03:43Stand up, Lee.
03:43One of my great superstars.
03:46It used to take 20 years before you got rejected
03:52when you put in an application.
03:53Now we're doing them in a matter of weeks, right?
03:56And that's why we have the biggest plants anywhere
03:59in the world.
04:00We're leading in AI.
04:00We're leading in everything.
04:02Our auto plants are pouring back into our country.
04:04Wait till you see the jobs coming with them.
04:07But there are many of them are under construction,
04:09but Lee's done a great job in getting those approvals.
04:11I appreciate it very much.
