In-town pool report #6: Hanukkah reception underway

The White House Hanukkah party is underway, with hundreds of guests packing the East Room. Festive music is playing as guests mingle. High tables are set up across the room, along with a menorah by the podium where POTUS will soon speak. It is not the same menorah that debuted under President Biden.

Your pooler is on the lookout for notable guests. Spotted in part by others: Ted Deutch, Avi Berkowitz, Laura Loomer, Howard Lutnick, and Will Scharf.

POTUS remarks will be broadcast live, so I will only send notable moments.

Also ICYMI flagging the President's recent Truth Social post, in which he announced a "complete blockade" of all sanctioned oil tankers going into and out of Venezuela. https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/115731908387416458
