This week's Thanksgiving travel is set to break records.
If you're traveling, be kind to those around you.
And remember that flying sucks so much these days because of the greed of the airlines. https://youtu.be/eTzaMXXelew?si=Iadyozwl-WcAKwzT

An ICE employee was among 16 men arrested after trying to solicit a minor for sex in Bloomington, Minnesota, police say
"When he was arrested, he said, 'I'm ICE, boys,'" Bloomington Police Chief Booker Hodges said during a press conference. "Well, unfortunately for him, we locked him up."

Walmart, McDonalds and Amazon are the largest employers of people who require SNAP assistance.
The CEOs earned between 18-40 million last year, 1000x their median employee income.
They took billions in profits, while their workers relied on SNAP to survive.
Wanna fix fraud and abuse?
Fix that.
