P.P.S.: See if you can spot JV level competitive depravity around the Thanksgiving table today. If you're like me, you have extended family still competing to show us all how they aren't "sheeple" and aren't "PC" (as the old folks say), and who view offending or degrading others as a badge of honor.

To be clear Lizza’s story is that Nuzzi sat on important matters of national significance for personal benefit and he’s sat on these details until he could personally benefit.
All of DC media needs to be thrown into the sea. Anyone who defends these people is a goddamn clown.

As you’re preparing for your Thanksgiving meal, remember the skilled work it took to get that food to your grocery store.
Tell us your favorite Thanksgiving dish, and we can share some of what we know about the work behind the ingredients.

Massive deportation always required deporting ordinary immigrants, documented and undocumented, as, yes, immigrants commit less crime than citizens.
Too bad the media failed to report on the most important policy promise.

This is the scandal. Trump isn’t targeting dangerous people. He’s targeting peaceful immigrants. Almost exclusively.

Every Thanksgiving I make and Apple Pie and a Pumpkin Pie. These are Fall fruit pies and therefore the correct pie.
The best pie is Mulberry Pie, specifically baked by my grandmother with fruit from her Mulberry tree. This is a summer pie, as is peach which is almost as good.
