Happy Thanksgiving to all of my fellow misguided children who were injected, inspected, detected

infected, neglected and selected!

Hope you all have a Thanksgiving dinner that COULDN’T BE BEAT!

As the bard himself said:

“It’s celebrating idiocy you might say,” Guthrie said in 2005. “I mean, thank God that the people that run this world are not smart enough to keep running it forever.”

Peace out and Happy Thanksgiving.

Operation ENDURING BOREDOM

Great story from Mother Jones laying out the realities of the operational situation at the US-Mexico border.

Trump's orders will be dragging these soldiers away from their families at Thanksgiving and from training for their next actual deployment over the winter.

If it weren't so sad, it would be fucking comical.

What if you had an "invasion" and nobody came?
