Biden clan, including Joe and Hunter, takes a Thanksgiving dip in Nantucket 

President Biden and his son Hunter Biden were among the members of the first family that went for a Thanksgiving swim in the frigid waters off Nantucket Thursday. 

“Annual Biden fam polar bear plunge. Happy Thanksgiving!” Naomi Biden, the 81-year-old president’s granddaughter, wrote in an X post.

Naomi included a photo that showed some members of the Biden clan wrapped in towels and standing on a rocky beach after their chilly Turkey Day dip. 

Water temperatures in the Nantucket Sound were a bitter 48 F Thursday afternoon. 

Joe has famously spent nearly every Thanksgiving on the island since 1975.

During his time as vice president, Joe and his grandkids would frequently take part in Nantucket’s annual Cold Turkey Plunge, a charity event where participants race into the icy salt water and hurry back to shore. 

This time, it appears the president opted to use the waters off of billionaire David Rubenstein’s 13-acre, beachfront estate for his traditional swim. 

Joe and his extended family are spending six days at the hedge-fund billionaire’s lavish mansion – the same compound where they spent the holiday in both 2021 and 2022. 

The White House has refused to say whether the president pays to rent the $38.9 million property from Rubenstein. 

Before his afternoon swim, the president and first lady Jill Biden delivered several pumpkin pies to the Nantucket Fire Department and chatted with first responders. 

Joe briefly answered shouted questions by reporters about the hostage situation in Gaza and American citizens imprisoned in Russia. 

“I’m not prepared to give an update until it’s done,” he said of the breakthrough agreement between Hamas and Israel that could see 50 hostages being held by the terror group released early Friday. 

When asked if Abigail Mor Edan, a 3-year-old Israeli-American girl being held captive in Palestinian territory, would be among those released, the commander in chief said, “I’m keeping my fingers crossed.”

Asked if he had a message for Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich and former US Marine Paul Whelan, Joe responded, “We ain’t giving up.” 

Gershkovich has been detained on espionage charges in Russia since March, and Whelan was sentenced to 16 years of hard labor in Russian a penal colony in 2020 after his 2018 arrest on spying allegations. 

The US government, Gershkovich and Whelan deny the charges.
