The new machine was accompanied by a personalized note from Hanks, which urged them to "Keep up the good fight for Truth, Justice, and the American Way. Especially the Truth part."

The espresso machine appears to be a Pasquini Livia G4, which retails for $2,219.

So he's buying more than an espresso machine.

What a kind giving heart he has to give an item to "our" nations first home. It truly says alot about putting aside differences when the time comes.

Thank you Mr. Hanks.

Sunshine, Thanks for clarifying. Why do we get tidbits and have to guess for ourselves? Maybe that was the intent. SMDH

It was for the Press corp and well deserved! The carp they deal with would require an espresso or two.

Yeah the poor press corp

dirty job but someone has to do it right?

@JobGirl I saw that but am hoping for the best with the intentions.

Seeking the truth is never wrong.

It sounds like he is sending a message to the pres. I don't think he was putting his differences aside. Methinks it was a snide covert way of saying something.

Actions speak louder than words.
