The presidential pardoning of turkeys is one of my favorites. It's one of those specific benchmarks lobbyists dream of - "big turkey" saw an opportunity and now its a beloved national tradition. Enjoy your retirement, you beautiful powerbrokers.

Saw KOTFM last night with loved ones here in Atlanta, and I'm a bit at a loss for words. Gonna take some time to process. For now, please listen to Osage Nation & support our government to reclaim the headrights that were stolen from our ancestors. 𐓷𐓘𐓻𐓘𐓻𐓟 𐓯𐓪͘𐓯𐓪͘𐓷𐓟
