They've convinced us to devote basically four straight days to consumerism: Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, Still Searching for Deals on Sunday, then Cyber Monday.

This Thanksgiving—observe the National Day of Mourning.
From 1819 to 1969, US Govt stole tens of thousands of Indigenous kids—forcing them to convert to Christianity & stripping them of their identities. Resistance was met with violence. Sexual abuse was rampant.

No she gave him money and in fact kept asking him for money even when the DCCC told her they couldn’t accept his money because he’s a sex offender. She also refused to give the money back.
