Today I'm heading out to my local store (Sunny Farms Country Store) to get last minute stuff for Thanksgiving. And that's the last we buy anything until mid-December! I'm not supporting Black Friday online sales. Please shop only locally. MASS BLACKOUT in effect. Do your part. Share.

One-third of the energy now generated in Texas is from renewables like wind and solar. Without this clean energy, the grid in Texas would have failed multiple times and many people would have died. This is something Gov. Abbott and the GOP refuse to tell the public.

JD Vance and Peter Thiel are running a sustained operation out of the White House designed to acquire Greenland, either voluntarily or by force. Thiel has laid out plans for what he intends to do with the island nation in past writings. It doesn't entail the consent of the Greenlanders for anything.

What would those records help reveal? Where Epstein got his money. How he acquired and controlled his victims. Who he trafficked them to. What individuals and banks enabled the trafficking. Who else had control of Epstein’s accounts, and what crimes they committed.

Ahem. It's the job of the President to appoint DAs - with advice and consent from the Senate.
The President can ignore that rule - but only once (per district) and only for 120 days.
Do you know who appoints DAs after the 120 day mark has passed?
Pam Bondi doesn't. Because it's the judiciary.

While feds are cutting support for housing, so is DC.
There is no city funding for 2026 for permanent supportive housing for individuals experiencing homelessness. Shelters are at 95% capacity. Other voucher programs are shrinking, pushing people back into homelessness, including families.

This is far worse than anyone expected.
Trump's HUD plan would cut *two-thirds* of permanent housing and push as many as 170,000 formerly homeless people back onto the street—redirecting funds to work mandates, forced treatment, and encampment sweeps.
All as mass internment camps are being built.
