Why not give your liberal relatives something different this year----agita.

Decorate your tree with a patriotic theme.
Carry out the theme w/ gift wrap and dining table decor.

Nice photo of the creche.

Funny thing...my Wife showed me a photo of it yesterday (along with several others) - it was sent to her by one of her clients.

Apparently she’s a volunteer at the WH and has been setting up the displays... also sent a very nice photo of Melania.

Pretty cool!

The creche was a gift to the White House in the 1960’s. It wasn’t displayed then because of court rulings about nativity scenes in government buildings. It is an 18th century creche from Italy.

Naples, Italy is known for such creches.
