Actually in the spirit of this conversation, what’s a decision you made about a past Thanksgiving holiday that really paid off? I think people often feel trapped by their lives. Sharing our experiences can liberate us from that sense of claustrophobia.
On the most recent episode of VIBE CHECK, we answer listener questions about Thanksgiving, most importantly “do you go celebrate with the family members you don’t even like?”

Note—every time a Federal judge rules against Trump, Trump claims "the judge is usurping the President's power."
That's a lie.
Judge's don't "usurp" POTUS's power—they enforce Constitutional & Congressional limits on power.
Wannabe kings don't like it, but that's how separation of powers works.

Behind this important reversal is a member of the Coast Guard who saw what was happening and had the courage to leak it to the press. That person deserves serious praise.

I'm happy I grew up in the era of card catalogs and the dewey decimal system. Just walking into the library with a stack of index cards, a pen, and an idea.
I keep thinking the *process* of researching is as important as what you discover.
It forces you to consider what impacts and relates to what you are looking for and the context of what you find impacts its meaning.
Knowledge is not a box of cereal that you can just grab a handful of. #KM

This is not a DoD move. USCG is DHS & is Krispy Gnome’s personal military force. (She lives in the quarters of the Coast Guard Commandant, conveniently vacant since ADM Fagan was fired on day1.) Just like with ICE, she’s lowering standards & openly recruiting nazis for drug & migrant interdiction.
Exclusive: The U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify the swastika, nooses and the Confederate flag as hate symbols.
The military service drafted a new policy that classifies them as “potentially divisive.”

Trump fired Admiral Linda Lee Fagen, Coast Guard Commandant earlier this year. Now the new Acting Commandant is aligning with Trump regime policies. Incredibly,“the Coast Guard declined to address why its new policy no longer characterizes swastikas, nooses and the Confederate flag as hate symbols.”

Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.
