This year, President Barack Obama and his family are spending Thanksgiving at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, where they'll dine on turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes -- and six kinds of pie. Here's this year's menu, as provided by the White House press office: Dinner: Thyme Roasted Turkey Honey-Baked Ham Cornbread Stuffing Oyster Stuffing Braised Winter Greens Macaroni and Cheese Sweet Potato Gratin Mashed Potatoes Green Bean Casserole Dinner Rolls Dessert: Banana Cream Pie Coconut Cream Pie Pumpkin Pie Apple Pie Pecan Pie Cherry Pie As the Associated Press notes, it's Obama's responsibility to pick up the tab for the meal -- as he does every other day of the year: Gary Walters, who was chief White House usher for many years, said the payment rule dates back to 1800 when the White House was first occupied by President John Adams and there was no staff.

  • 'A Wonderful Man': Trump Praises The 'Great Hannibal Lecter'
    The Daily Dot, Sunday - 05/12/2024 - 10:09 AM

    Donald Trump's shoutout to the "late great Hannibal Lecter" is weird on many levels. Since he is still alive, Trump couldn't have meant the actor Anthony Hopkins. And then there's the character, a vicious serial killer who ate his prey. As far as I remember, he didn't die in the films.
