I will cook our turkey today. I kind of have to since I thawed it. We still have plenty of Hawaiian BBQ left. I probably won't do all the other stuff though. Will save it for Christmas dinner.

In the 1930s, millions of U.S. citizens of Mexican ancestry--from BEFORE the annexation of Mexican territory after the treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in 1848--were 'deported' south of the Rio Grande.

They want to do this again and in a larger scale: ALL "foreigners", including many white people.
A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.

And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

As someone else stated, we are NOT at war, so these aren't war crimes.
This action and previous actions of lethal force taken against vessels in the Caribbean are flat out murder.
International Courts should see it as such.
NEWS: The United States committed a war crime by killing individuals who clung onto the side of a boat in the Caribbean, posing no threat to the United States.

As someone who studied international law, Hegseth’s order to ‘Kill Them All’ was a denial of quarter.

This makes me even more rageful that a friend just had to pay $800 because her insurance denied coverage of her 19 year old's HPV vaccine, claiming that it is no longer recommended. Appeals were denied. I can only assume RFK Jr had something to do with this???
This is wonderful news, and also means it’s time for me to beat the drum I always do when HPV vaccines make the news:

They are not only for women! HPV also causes penile, anal, and head and neck cancers. The latter are particularly deadly. Please vaccinate ALL your children.
Australia recorded ZERO cases of cervical cancer in women under 25 for the first time since they started tracking the cancer in the 80s.

This is the power of vaccines.

The HPV vaccine is extremely effective at preventing cancer.

Viruses can be oncogenic. Get your vaccines and protect yourself!

Since it's a big weekend for consumerism, I just want to put out there that buying an indie author's book in any format is "shopping small" no matter where you choose to buy it from.

It's Thanksgiving and the effing cops just gotta do the firing range and noise pollute the whole area with gun shots all day. 😡 They normally do on Fri and sometimes Mon. But this is BS.

Since we have a lot going on we decided to get some Hawaiian BBQ for Thanksgiving. I thawed a Costco cooked turkey breast, which just needs heating, but it's all too much to deal with. Sick kitty is upstairs kitty so we need to spend all day upstairs. BBQ is good. Maybe start a new tradition.

Apparently it’s a crime to remind military members to follow the law and refuse illegal orders (something that it is ingrained in basic) and the pentagon can recall you into the service to discipline you. However, the pentagon will not prosecute you for dodging the draft five times.

This shameful event is one of the parts of American history I didn't learn in school and didn't hear about til I was an adult, many years ago. This article (and really any other reading you can do about Tulsa) is eye opening to the kinds of things that are 'hidden' from most of us.
The first time terrorists used planes to attack Americans wasn’t on 9/11 or at Pearl Harbor. It was the Tulsa Race Massacre of 1921 when white supremacists flew a dozen planes to drop turpentine or nitroglycerin bombs on Black Americans.

Viola Fletcher was there.

If the Democrats take control of Congress in about a year and Jeffries and Schumer haven't been primaried, then they almost certainly will be the leaders of both bodies, and based on all available evidence they will take that opportunity to immediately surrender in the name of unity and comity.
