Support for Trump’s tariffs means higher prices on everything. Gas, food, housing, everything.
Every politician should be asked if they support higher prices on everything due to Trump’s tariffs.

Suggestion: This year, show those without empathy what we can do. Instead of plastic toys, another tie, or tchotchke, donate your money to those in need. I am giving to the North Carolina relief effort. Happy Thanksgiving!

It’s 4:53 am and I’m tired and cannot sleep. I cooked until late last night, went to bed, and only tossed & turned.
Played Bejeweled for an hour, got up and washed blueberries for scones/breakfast, & made some coffee.
It’s going to be a long day! I’m happy to have family together again.

Since not a day goes by without someone saying I’m “just another big account that doesn’t say what to do.” I’ll once again say what I think you can do.
1) 30 states have local/state elections starting in Feb. Get involved/run.
2) Join a special issue group like civil rights, abortion or immigrant

Michael Ian Black: I Am Grateful for So Much That Isn’t Donald Trump
Trump’s is an America powered by resentment, not gratitude, which makes it doubly stinging to give thanks this year. Even so, I don’t have to look very hard to find things for which I am thankful.

So let me get this straight.
If you apply for a job at a grocery store, you have to undergo a background check.
But, if you apply to be Director of National Intelligence, you don't?
Got it.
