Thought this year we’d get by without one of these posts… but then came Trump’s late-night “Happy Thanksgiving” rant. His dangerous rhetoric continues to divide this country when we need unity the most.

Photograph of a printed guidance memo stating that the U.S. Government will not be commemorating World AIDS Day this year. Key points include: USG funds should not be used for related events, personnel should refrain from public promotion via social media or other channels, and CDC and other USG staff may attend local events but cannot speak or promote attendance. The memo notes this guidance supersedes previous blanket approval and may require adjustments to planned activities.

Marjorie Taylor Greene's resigning in time to get a pension is a lesson to everyone. Most Americans don't get *any* pension anymore, but Congress gave itself a pension after only five years of work. Our "representatives" aren't working for us, they are [barely] working for themselves.

When such a big percentage of GDP is being propped up by AI companies and their investors, that means that a tiny handful of people getting fabulously wealthy are accounting for the bulk of the economic benefits while everyone else is getting screwed. That’s Trump’s economy.
