POTUS finished speaking at 11.06am and, with FLOTUS, descended the south portico stairs. The Easter Bunny followed behind.

POTUS and FLOTUS stood and observed ‘The President’s Own’ Marine Band playing. POTUS spent a few minutes talking to reporters then to staff.

Holding FLOTUS’s hand, POTUS leaned over and talked to one child lined up for the egg roll. The Easter Bunny stood to FLOTUS’s left.

POTUS asked the children: “Are you ready? One two three!” He blew a whistle and the race began.

This was repeated a few times. POTUS noticed one boy had moved forward and had a “head start” on the others.

POTUS and FLOTUS moved forward and talked to members of the crowd then sat with children at an activity table. Event is ongoing.

Pool has spotted Karoline Leavitt, Stephen Miller and Kash Patel in attendance.
