We’re canceling Thanksgiving apparently.

Why did the liberal Illuminati not keep me in the loop? I paid my dues, people.
I assume he’s referring to this.

Although we’re a little tongue in cheek here, there are some very good reasons to take a close look at how we celebrate Thanksgiving.

I interviewed @Chef_Sean , founder of @the_sioux_chef about this very issue last week. Bonus: There’s a recipe!

This #SundayMorning we're taking a closer look at those involved in the Ukraine scandal.

Which of the major players among the Trump administration & the GOP will face charges or further inquiries? How deep does this rabbit hole of corruption go?

(2) Let's start with the 3 amigos: Perry, Volker & Sondland. Sondland committed perjury but then "revised" his statements.

Hill's testimony supports Perry was too stupid to realize what was going on & Volker has been forthright (mostly).

(3) While it's unlikely any of the 3 amigos will face charges, there have been some questions about who knew what in the OMB (Office of Management and Budget ) about the hold on foreign aid and how deeply those officials may be implicated in the scandal.

While we think of Thanksgiving as an American holiday, we don't have the market cornered on harvest celebrations.

I explored autumn festivals from around the world in this series for @rosettastone , including sharing traditional recipes.

(2) First up we have Sukkot, a biblically-based holiday sometimes called the Festival of Booths where Jewish people celebrate the exodus of the Israelites and the bounty God provided.

Also, there's challah with honey and I'm ALWAYS down for that.

(3) Next we have Olivagando. Italians celebrate la dolce goccia or the “sweet drop" with a fall festival. I chat with @chefchuck1 about why Italians value olive oil and how to choose a good one.

I also made a very pretty olive oil cake. You're welcome.

This morning we're asking why GOP leadership has abdicated all leadership and seems willing to cowtail to this corrupt President.

We're looking at you @LindseyGrahamSC and @senatemajldr
Is kompromat from when the RNC servers got hacked being used to keep them in line?

(THREAD)
(2) This is a conspiracy theory that has spawned rampant speculation. And most responsible journalists have steered clear of these rumors because they're just that.

Rumors.

But one of the most damning pieces of evidence is Graham's own bizarre behavior.

(3) It's difficult to discern why a man who was John McCain's best friend would stand by and watch Trump not only malign the war hero but undermine everything he stood for.

Lindsey Graham's about-face seems embarrassing, but maybe it serves a purpose.

washingtonpost.com/opinions/2019/… So what’s his point here? That young people should live in constant terror of being shot or gassed to death? Kids these days, thinking it’s better to not be shot at than to be shot at.
If you could get in a time machine and ask young fighting people in WWII, “Would you rather be shot at by Nazis or sitting in a classroom not being shot at by Nazis?”, you’d find that yesterday’s kids have the same preferences as today’s kids.
Meanwhile, here's Marc Thiessen's current take on those who fight back against Nazis, which is that they are themselves Nazis. washingtonpost.com/opinions/yes-a…

People who threaten to kill other people should not be able to own or buy guns. Full stop. capitalgazette.com/news/for_the_r…
The gunman was not under protective order at the time of the shooting. Regardless, Maryland law doesn’t require a background check on long guns, so he could have bought the shotgun he used to kill his victim from an unlicensed dealer without any flags. google.com/amp/s/www.balt…
There was an opportunity to close this loophole this year in Maryland, but Rep. Bobby Zirkin stood in the way - despite his claim to be a gun sense candidate. We’ll call this the #ZirkinLoophole until this state senator acts to protect Marylanders. washingtonpost.com/opinions/bobby…

⛪️✝️❤️Thread ~ Not attending service this morning, but still have notes to share. Scheduled Bible readings planned years ahead; churches all over world read same Scriptures on same day. First one reminds me of my oil painting "Let my People Go" (last in thread says /end thread/)
2) Here's the reading that reminds me of the art I just shared "He who made a way through the sea, a path through the mighty waters" The passage is encouraging for those who want justice- who want deliverance- who want to move on from the past, want change biblegateway.com/passage/?searc…
3) Art in beginning of this thread- I painted it in under an hour. My reaction to losing our employer-based health ins & finding out no "grandfather clause" nor did we qualify for a premium or Ocare. Called "the family glitch" & left us with NO insurance cnsnews.com/mrctv-blog/jef…

People are literally dying in streets in DC because the DC government has not stepped up to challenge of building sufficient safeguards for bikers or pedestrians. It's a shame, because DC had a good start on its bike lane. It is not maturing fast enough. washingtonpost.com/opinions/dc-of…
Here is the related story in The WashPost

And another recent WashPost piece. Protected bike lanes are not expensive to build. And they save lives washingtonpost.com/transportation…
