Glad to not have to shop at big box stores and Amazon today through Tuesday to celebrate the purchasing power of the American people! I woke up late and going to work out at the gym. Life’s good and I don’t need anything. Friends & family know I love them.

Stephen Miller is of Ashkenazi Jewish descent. His great-grandparents inhabited the Pale of Settlement (western Russia where Jews were allowed to live) and escaped Russian pogroms and the Holocaust. All the same racist, xenophobic, ignorant things he is saying were said about his own family.

With all that is going on with Senator Kelly, I've noticed there isn't much chatter about the #EpsteinFiles. Hmmmmmm. Another distraction.

This Thanksgiving, I'm thinking of our neighbors with an empty seat at the dinner table.

Those with loved ones abducted & deported from their families.

Those we lost due to gun violence, mass incarceration, & more.

A more just America is possible, if we fight for it.

Experts say it’s highly unusual for the White House to tell agents to give up custody of potential evidence in an investigation, as it did with the Tates.

“I’ve never heard of anything like that in my 30 years working,” an ex-DHS official said.
The White House Intervened on Behalf of Accused Sex Trafficker Andrew Tate During a Federal Investigation
Federal authorities were chided for seizing electronic devices from Tate and his brother, and told to return them, records and interviews show. Experts said the intervention was highly inappropriate.

Remember the farm workers who harvest the food? We wouldn’t be able to enjoy a Thanksgiving dinner without their hard work.

Conservatives yell “socialism” at every initiative designed to help people.

Maybe you've heard the word a few times already today.

But this is nothing more than an old scare tactic.

A functioning government requires pooling resources for the common good. Let me explain.

There’s an investigation into an Army doctor who was sexually assaulting, filming and even inducing labour without consent.

He may have abused up to 2,500 women.

Why isn’t this bigger news?

It’s the largest sexual abuse case in the military’s history.

While the right lose their goddamn minds about a lone wolf doing something horrendous in DC today, let’s not forget that last week in the White House they all gushed over a genocidal, journalist murdering tyrant whose country financed 9/11.

Trump's speech about the shooting in DC veered into him attacking the Somali community in Minnesota, which of course had nothing to do with the shooting. Gives away his bigoted game.
