The Spectator P.M. Ep. 173: Portland Debuts Bizarrely Woke ‘Tree Lighting’ Ceremony
Instead of having a Christmas tree lighting ceremony, participants at a Portland celebration made an effort to avoid mentioning the word “Christmas” altogether and declared it to be a “tree lighting” ceremony.
On this episode of The Spectator P.M. Podcast, hosts Ellie Gardey Holmes and Lyrah Margo discuss the event and how it included woke messaging, like chants of “Free Palestine.” They contrast the event with the reveal of Melania Trump’s Christmas decorations at the White House, and discuss its differences with former First Lady Jill Biden’s own decor.
