You know, it’s the week of Thanksgiving which starts a wonderful season for all religious people. That’s a double-edged sword because the secular and the Left try to make this season into proof that our country and the religious are evil. But I don’t care about that today.
Let’s do some news and hope for the best. But let’s talk about Thanksgiving and happy things. Something we can talk about at the dinner table. Things that are political but not.
News
I need to hit on some news.
Ruth Bader Ginsberg has been hospitalized again with flu-like symptoms. This is after she missed a session of the Supreme Court last week. She stayed, got some liquids and was released. I am not a fan of the 87-year-old and I do want her to retire. But not die. I wish her the best and hope she is feeling better.
The impeachment thing moves on to the second phase. The House Judiciary Committee under Jerry Nadler, will hold public hearings next week.Some Democrats from purple states are getting nervous about voting for impeachment so I think that a vote may not be as much a slam dunk as they thought.
We finally know why Trump withheld aid: Because Trump was ticked that no one else was paying aid to Ukraine. This came from close-door testimony from Mark Sandy, an official from the White House Office of Management and Budget. This probably should have been brought up in the first place.

Animals are Great, Animal are Great!
Here are some great stories.
Conan, the dog that chased al-Baghdadi has finally made it to the White House. There, he was awarded a medal and a plaque and was then brought out to the Rose Garden for a quick press conference.
Conan, who is a five-year-old male Belgian Malinois, seemed very sweet. Vice President Pence couldn’t keep his hands off of her and she seems to love it. He is going to go back to the Middle East right after his visit to the White House.
Many say that the dog should be able to receive a Purple Heart because he was injured. The government banned dogs getting any official medal back in the 1940s. I think is would be awesome if President Trump would sign an Executive Order allowing animals to get medals.I’d love to see the Resistance take that Executive Order to court.
President Trump also pardoned two turkeys for Thanksgiving. The turkeys’ names are Bread and Butter. Cute, huh? During his speech, he needed to take a swipe at Democrats and the impeachment hearings.
The two turkeys will be taken to the University of Virginia where they will be retired and cared for. Those birds are going to have a better life than me.
Great Advice!
I usually go to the Huffington Post to get stories that are so woke their stupid. But I found this article and it actually changed the tone of this podcast today. It is a great article and I’ll probably spend most of the article. The article by Lindsay Holmes is titled 10 Things Grateful People Do Differently. Let’s go over those ten steps.
- Write in a journal.
- Don’t avoid the negative.
- Spend time with loved ones.
- Tell your loved ones you love them.
- Use social media mindfully.
- Know the value of the little things.
- Help people know the value of the little things.
- Volunteer.
- Get moving (exercise).
- Love Yourself.
Ten Things I’m Grateful For
It’s been a really hard couple of years for me. But, the reality is, I have a great life and I have a lot to be grateful for. Here are some things I am going to be talking about and celebrating on Thursday.
- God.
- My family.
- Josie.
- My friends- Dave, Chad, Nick, Dean, Nate, Yesenia, Lissette, Teresa just to name a few.
- My career and the employers.
- My health.
- My God-given drive to try new things.
- A roof over me head.
- My country.
- The next day.
Even the bad things are good.
