The press was on pins and needles today upon learning of an unscheduled even in the Rose Garden. What was all this about?

The White House is gathering reporters in the Rose Garden for an unscheduled event. No details about what we’re about to see, but it seems like we will hear from POTUS shortly. Stand by.

We are told there will be “an animal” at this event. Press is advised to remain calm.
