This is the first Thanksgiving for Sophie & Colin Hortman without their parents, Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman and Mark Hortman who were assassinated along with the family dog in an act of political murder. National guards troops were not deployed to the state in response.

also we now have a “whites only” refugee policy. they aren’t trying to hide the white supremacy anymore. it’s overt and mainstream.
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.”

I don’t know why, and I don’t want to make a big hairy deal out it so ICE’s Special Media Prosecutor Division doesn’t notice, but People Magazine has been incredibly straightforward with their Trump headlines when he’s being a weird old asshole.

We finally solved that pesky problem of too many college graduates getting jobs
Kevin Hassett: "I think there could be a little bit of an almost quiet time in the labor market, because firms are finding that AI is making their workers so productive that they don't necessarily have to hire the new kids out of college and so on."

I’ve had five minute commutes and hour and a half commutes, and yeah, this completely checks out.
“Someone with a 1-hr car commute needs to earn 40% more to be as happy as someone with a short walk to work. On the other hand, if someone shifts from a long commute to a walk, their happiness increases as much as if they’d fallen in love.” #CityMakingMath

NEW: Foreign food safety inspections have hit a historic low after Trump staffing cuts. The dramatic shift in oversight comes as the U.S. has never been more reliant on foreign food.
“It’s only a matter of time before people die,” one expert said.

Foreign Food Safety Inspections Hit Historic Low After Trump Cuts
The dramatic shift in oversight comes at a time when the U.S. has never been more reliant on foreign food, which accounts for the vast majority of the nation’s seafood and more than half its fresh fruit.

The simplest reason why the Trump administration is cutting off SNAP, despite adequate reserves, is that they hate the program and don't care about the people who depend upon it.
They are breaking the law not to provide SNAP while also enforcing the "equal treatment rules" to hurt SNAP users.

The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

Chicago street vendors are being targeted by ICE & Border Patrol agents. As a result, many are staying home and not able to work. Preorder and $8 per shirt will go towards the Street Vendors Association of Chicago who offer financial assistance to vendors who stay home.

Leaked document. Yikes, things are about to get much worse. It looks like we’re on the verge of becoming a military state across the country. Step out of line, and the man come and take you away.

One example of the price increases on the horizon. People are literally about to be priced out in the same way landlords price people out of apartments. It won’t stop here either
How many of us have already put off going to the doctor/dentist, simply because we can’t afford it? This is unacceptable

So I've been paying $1200 a month this year for an ACA plan.
2026 preview site from the regime just went up.
This is what the exact same plan will cost me per month in 2026.
I'm beside myself.

Oh hai sounds like the concentration camps are starting to ramp up.
Under Trump, the draconian future of homelessness policy is coming into focus: mass internment. Utah is building a 16-acre site to detain up to 1,300 homeless people inside locked "accountability centers." This is profoundly alarming.
