Trump pardoned Honduran ex-president Juan Orlando Hernández - convicted of smuggling 400+ tons of cocaine into the US - to prop up political ally Tito Asfura in Sunday’s election. It’s a blatant quid pro quo: free the narco-state boss and lock in a pro-Trump regime in Honduras.

If we tune that out and focus on actual actions and plans we may be better prepared to resist.

Each year I am reminded that the fourth Thursday in November is the observance of a National Day of Mourning for indigenous Americans. It's an opportunity to reflect on Native American heritage and the role Thanksgiving played in the lives of their ancestors, my children's ancestors. #gratitude
