20-year-old West Virginia National Guard member, Sarah Beckstrom, died a day after volunteering to serve in DC so that others could enjoy Thanksgiving with their families. She deserves our gratitude, not political exploitation by a shameless president who scapegoats immigrants to swell his power.

196 million people shop over Thanksgiving weekend. If even just a fraction of us refuse to bankroll companies enabling harm, the message will be impossible to ignore. Other companies will think twice before they cave. Skip Target, Amazon, and Home Depot. Protect your community. #WeAintBuyingIt

Cannot emphasize this enough. If you shop on Black Friday, shop only at small biz, minority owned biz, women owned biz, or support independent media. Do not give Big Box Retailers your money! #WeAintBuyingIt

This is the first Thanksgiving for Sophie & Colin Hortman without their parents, Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman and Mark Hortman who were assassinated along with the family dog in an act of political murder. National guards troops were not deployed to the state in response.

As you’re preparing for your Thanksgiving meal, remember the skilled work it took to get that food to your grocery store. Tell us your favorite Thanksgiving dish, and we can share some of what we know about the work behind the ingredients.

Trump's speech about the shooting in DC veered into him attacking the Somali community in Minnesota, which of course had nothing to do with the shooting. Gives away his bigoted game.

we know nothing about the shooter except maybe he's from Afghanistan and yet i'm confident the official representatives of our federal law enforcement agencies will blame it on their political opponents for literally no reason

“I’m doing a great job on the economy and bringing the price of Thanksgiving dinners way down by encouraging Americans to replace costly ingredients with straw,” said Trump, adding that grass-based livestock feed could be shaped into the form of a roasted bird. #Satire theonion.com/white-house-...

theonion.comWhite House Touts Affordability Of Hay-Based Thanksgiving DishesWASHINGTON—Responding to concerns about high grocery prices ahead of the holiday, President Donald Trump held a press conference Wednesday to tout the affordability of hay-based Thanksgiving dishes. “...

I feel bad about the National Guards who were killed in DC today -- whoever did this must be prosecuted and sentenced to the full extent of the law. But the Guardsmen should never have been here. They were picking up trash and re-sodding grass. Their dumbass gov sent them for Trump. Total waste.

Something totally different... There is an opportunity to make solar more accessible on a state-by-state basis. Exciting!!

David Roberts@volts.wtf

Today on Volts: I've had more requests to cover this than almost any other topic in the pod's history, so now, at long last, balcony solar! We dig into how "plug-in solar" took off in Europe & how it's making its way to the US, starting in Utah. Backyard DIY types rejoice!

Riddle me this, how in the fuck is this making our communities any safer? This ICE agent sprays this disabled woman directly in the face in St Paul, Minnesota with pepper spray and then throws her to the ground. I hope she sues the hell out of ICE for this‼️#Abolish 🧊🧊🧊

If you live in or you know anyone in Tennessee’s 7th district, TODAY is the LAST day to vote early. And tell everyone you know who hasn’t voted that it is all about turnout next Tuesday. We need as many people showing up to the polls. We can do this.

Are you a business that's colluding with ICE? Caving to the biased attacks on DEI? Funding this administration for tax cuts? Guess what? #WeAintBuyingIt Nov 27–Dec 1, instead we are putting our money where are values are.

Home Depot has provided tools and materials to build this regime. HD turns profits from customers who bust their assess constructing & repairing in our communities, then aid in allowing the regime to abduct them. (Who knows, perhaps for an additional sum.) www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
