Jill Biden says Melania Trump declined tea invite
The Hill ^ | 1/15/2025 | Sarah Fortinsky

Posted on 01/15/2025 4:59:55 PM PST by simpson96

First lady Jill Biden said incoming first lady Melania Trump declined her invitation for tea, according to a report in The Washington Post.

Biden reportedly extended the invitation to have tea at the White House, as is customary for incoming and outgoing first ladies during the presidential transition.

But Trump declined, according to the Post, which published a lengthy profile of the outgoing first lady Wednesday.

Biden noted in the interview conducted Jan. 5 that she followed up with Melania Trump in a note, which she passed along to President-elect Trump when they saw each other at the reopening of the Notre Dame in December.

“I congratulated her and I offered help,” Biden said of the note, according to the Post.

Biden did not hear back from her until they spoke briefly at former President Carter’s state funeral last week, when Melania Trump thanked the first lady.

The Hill reached out to the Trump transition team for comment.

The customary White House tea meeting is not the only tradition first ladies are skipping during this transition.

Former first lady Michelle Obama will not be attending the inauguration next week. She also skipped Carter’s state funeral, which would have had her seated next to the incoming president, citing a “scheduling conflict.”

I can remember Jill on the cover of Time with the words: "A first lady for all of us.” Pure crap! Nothing but a willing accomplice to a deviant pedophile corrupt bastard.

I hear Dr. Jill wasn’t going to give her a gift at the tea. Maybe some underwear the FBI stole when they raided her house?

Exactly right on, Muesli Brains was way out of the picture a couple years ago and Jill might have been behind all the lawfare and other evil deeds.

Biden ordered a big panty raid on Mar-A-Lago. You don’t sit to tea with people who stole or rifled through your personal belongings like that with weapons drawn.

Maybe Melania doesn’t want to have tea with a woman who’s husband sent the FBI to raid her home and tried to put her husband in prison for the rest of his life.

Dr. Jill asked if Melania would prefer to be addressed as Eva or as Ms. Braun.

Only if Melania can slip a drug into Jill’s cup. Kidding.

True story. Grace Slick of the Jefferson Airplane was invited to a White House reception because as a blood relative of a Daughter of the American Revolution under her maiden name Wing no one knew she was now a famous singer. She and Tricia Nixon were graduates of Finch College.

She had the idea of slipping an LSD capsule into food or drink for Richard Nixon. Because she asked Abbie Hoffman to be her guest (at the all female tea party) Secret Service questioned them and took away her chance. She concealed 600 milligrams of LSD and wasn’t found out. Hoffman was able to place a marijuana flag on the White House gate on the way out.

Note. She had lifelong mental illness and knew later that was a bad idea of a practical joke. Another time she felt rain as she was singing outside so did the rest of the show
with her shirt off and topless “because the rain would have made it wrinkle when it dried.”

Preparing for the Smothers Brothers live show she decided to put on blackface makeup she saw in the dressing room and sang two songs that way (on video later).

She once performed with the band but was so inebriated that she could not sing properly. She also attacked the audience, mocking Germany for losing World War II and groping both female audience members and bandmates. She left the group the next day, and she was “dragged off” a San Francisco game show for abusing the contestants.-— Wikipedia.

She was badly injured in a car race with bandmember Jorma Kaukonen as both were going over 100mph and Slick crashed into the wall of a tunnel in San Franciso.

She was an alcoholic but in recovery for over 20 years.

Jill needs to move on. Everyone knows who she is and what she is.

"“I congratulated her and I offered help,” Biden said of the note, according to the Post."

She doesn't need your help idiot. She's already been there, done that.
