it's all tied up. so right now if i wanted to call a taxicab, i can't do it. i don't have a credit card. i don't have a checking account. >> add to that, he has no dignity and apparently no financial lifeline from donald trump. the man he sold his soul for. things are not going so well for rudy giuliani and it all came to a head in an outburst in a new york city courtroom. also tonight, with mass deportations on the horizon, trump and company are threatening democratic mayors with arrests and with holding of federal funds. so, how can cities fight back? one of the newest candidates for mayor of new york city joins me tonight. plus, it's family foods giving eve. i have a very special thanksgiving message for all the maga trolls and their apologists.

we begin tonight with consequences because elections are about more than just who you pick to be president. it's also about who that president chooses to have around them. the people who will have access to some of the nation's most classified secrets, who will oversee millions of federal workers and multibillion-dollar budgets, making life-or-death decisions for american citizens day in and out. and if you have thought that donald trump, who, along with his maga cronies, railed about dei hires so unqualified in the biden era because they are not white guys, if you thought he would pick the most competent and qualified people for these positions, well, just take a look at his incoming national security team. it includes john phelan, pick for secretary of the navy. a businessman and investor with no military experience whatsoever. if confirmed he would be the first person in 15 years to lead

the navy without ever having served in any branch of the armed forces. so, why would trump pick him, you ask? according to politico, he was a major donor to the trump campaign and reportedly hosted the president-elect at his aspen, colorado, home in summer where trump went on a profanity-laced tirade about fwraigs and warned the election to be the last the united states ever had if kamala harris won. apparently, that's all it takes. there is also tulsi gabbard, trump's pick for director of national intelligence, has never worked in the intelligence field or even served on a congressional intelligence committee. but she has been accused of amplifying russian propaganda and in 2017 she met with syrian president bashar al assad. if confirmed she would oversee all 18 of the nation's intelligence agencies. oh, and the list goes on. for secretary of defs, pete hegseth, has no senior military or national security experience.

hosted fox morning show and accused of sexually assaulting a woman in 2017 for which he denies any wrongdoing but paid out a settlement to his accuser making her sign an nda. and sebastian gorka for senior director for counterterrorism. you may remember him from trump's first administration when he attended the inaugural ball wearing a medal associated with a hungarian national group linked to nazi germany. these are just some of the very fine people donald trump wants to put in charge of our national security because when it comes to a job in the second trump administration, forget expertise, apparently all you need is a lot of cash and/or absolute loyalty to trump. throw in favorable appearances on fox and, bam, you are hired. welcome to the kakistocracy america. joining me dean of columbia school of university journalism and staff writer for "the new yorker," and tom nichols an

expert in things national security and russia. there is a -- national security apparatus has generally been a professionalist, a professional operation and the kind of military leadership. what donald trump seems to be doing is picking people who have the right idealogical makeup, believe what he wants, or who have the right sort of troll makeup to be willing to troll the agencies they are supposed to lead or maybe to deconstruct them. how do you read these picks? >> it's a combination of all of those. you can't -- you can never underestimate the trolling nation of all of this activity that both infuriates trump's opponents and is really gratify to the maga base who think that the intelligence community is this shadowy dark cabal out to get donald trump. there is also the problem that, as you pointed out, these are professional fields that are

normally staffed by experts. and the problem for a would-be authoritarian leader is that experts are the people who tell you what you can and can't really do. they are the ones that come in and give you the bad news and say, that's not going to work, or, you know, that's going to be a problem, or here are the things you should think about. he doesn't want anybody doing that. he wants people to say fabulous idea, mr. president, and we will get right on that. and so the way you get around that is that you put somebody on top of all three professionals who still are required there to run the day-to-day operations that keep the united states safe, but you put somebody on top of it that makes them afraid to come forward and say, this is what you need to tell the president. so it -- all of that expert opinion at that level. >> right. i think part of this, if there is a broader expertise, that people in the sort of base of the country, a lot of people just don't trust experts anymore. they think somebody with a ph.d.

they are suspicious automatically. if they are on tv, it they trust them more. if they are on a podcast, they trust them more. they don't trust experts. donald trump is fulfilling his base's desire to end expertise, the tea party movement was about that. we want joe the butcher, is somebody like me. here is the problem. whether it comes to the united states military, the idealogical shift if you are a woman in military or somebody like mark esper who had to tell donald trump, no, sir, you cannot have the military shoot protesters in the leg. he had to tell him, you can't do that. now pete hegseth, here is what the allegation is per nbc. there is detailed allegations of a sexual assault by him allegedly of the "washington post" says he paid the accusers but denies the assault. his attorney says he is completely innocent. the incident was investigated. police found the allegation to be false. that's not true. the fact they didn't charge it doesn't mean it's false. she is out there under an nda.

tammy duckworth who gave both her legs in iraq as fighting woman in the united states military said about his nomination. >> remember that we have just fought over a decade of fights and overhauled the military and the treatment of military sexual trauma. it's frankly an insult and really troubling that mr. trump would nominate someone who has admitted that he has paid off a victim who has claimed rape allegations against him. this is not the kind of person you want to lead the department of defense. >> if you are a woman in the military, this becomes an existential almost crisis for you this would be the leader on top of the allegations against donald trump, the commander and chief himself. >> there are a few things here, one of which is that the military has been devastated. this is a 20-year battle we are talking about, you know, to really bring to the foreground the prevalence of sexual

assault. you know, within the military. and so, you know, senator buckworth is absolutely right about that and she would know better than anyone else would about the issues that women have dealt with in the military. and so symbolically, irrespective of kind of where this case is in its adjudication, symbolically it sends a message this is maybe not an offense, maybe not something that is career ending or being taken very seriously. one other point, you know, regarding the intelligence community h you know, there is a long history, and we have to do well to reflect upon what happened during that first trump term about his fraught relationship with his very own intelligence, you know, officers. if you recall that incredible situation in helsinki in 2018 where u.s. intelligence gave donald trump the information and said that russia had attempted

to interfere in the 2016 election and standing directly next to vladimir putin he valued putin's tee t denial over the intelligence that his very own community gave. he said, you know, quote, i don't see why it would be vladimir putin, you know, responsible for this interference. and so this is not a new issue that we're deal with. and this brings me right to -- is a perfect place, tom, because this where the red pilling of donald trump becomes policy, right. donald trump doesn't trust the intelligence services because they busted vladimir putin trying to help him get elected. he still wants to litigate that. he doesn't trust the fbi because his home was raided because he stole classified documents. therefore, he doesn't want them to vet these people. he wants to come this unvetted. when it comes to mr. hegseth, he was flag by the pentagon because of these tats he has on and some of them have been linked in some

ways to people who have similar tats, including one called -- that white supremacists have tended to use. flagged him as an insider threat. he called himself being flagged as somebody who shoot knob able to work on joe biden's detail, president biden's detail. he walled that anti-christian bigotry and said that ends the day he comes into the department of defense. that could mean theoretically, tom nichols, we are letting in people -- we have all kinds of tats. we don't know what kinds and what they signify. they are saying they don't like this femization of the military where they let trans people in, more women in. he has been very clear they want back a more macho old-fashioned military the way he thinks it could be, but that do mean letting in extremists. that's where we are headed. >> yeah. this is, you know, i mean, part of the -- where we'll end up is opening the doors wider for

people that might have been disqualified for military service because pete hegseth is mad. because he feels that he was poorly treated. i mean, this is this constant stream of grievance that runs through all of these people that surround trump. if you look at all of them closely, you will always find there is someplace that's their origin story where they felt they were denied something that they were entitled to, that they felt they were judged unfairly, they are out to get even with everybody. this is coming back to the red pilling of trump. he has always bristled at anyone he thinks disagrees with him. he hates anyone who has tried to hold him accountable for anything, at any point in his life. some of us have -- we are aware of donald trump before he ran for president in the '80s and '90s. this is just who he is and who they are, that accountability is for other people, that

consequences are for suckers, you know, that this is -- that they just have this kind of constant sense that any professional who puts the national interests above their own personal interests is, obviously, an idiot and, therefore, not to be trusted. >> right. and, i mean, tulsi gabbard fits into that same mold, right, that she kind of speaks to the conspiracy theories online who they say we think there is some sort of dark conspiracy behind the support for ukraine it's not just normal military-to-military support. there is some dash -- she gets to be overseeing and overseeing all the intelligence and find the secret ufos that have been hidden from -- it's like they are all going to be able to work out the grievances of their fans and of donald trump rather than secure the national interest. i want to come back to another thing we see happening, which is that this is happening at a time when neo-nazis are literally marching in the streets and there has been an uptick in their presence in communities.

the clue cluck ue cluks fan fly diary of anne frank production in michigan, this is what an entity wrote that talked about this phenomenon, they don't view donald trump as a part of them, but what they feel is that what he says things like immigrants poison the blood of the country and that he wants to mass deport them, that fits that irideology and their end game is he fails to deport 16 million people and then white americans look to them and say we need to do it zwrur way. another set of grievances that this far, far, far right is turning to trump to solve. >> this has been kind of stated from the outset, you know, the rise of the trump movement, you know, even early in the presidency when we saw charlottesville. irrespective of the people on the right have disputed the meaning of trump saying they were very fine people on both

sides, but irrespective of that, the mere fact that that crowd took inspiration from him, that they found him to be heroic, that someone who represented their interests and saw the world in ways in which they did, you know, is in it dev damning. so this is kind of an ongoing dynamic that we've seen, you know, trump really be very much the kind of orchestra conductor for. >> and tom, we have had this challenge of keeping this sort of vibe and brand out of our military going back to waco, going back to what happened during the 1990s. we are now -- we had it in january 6th. how military people crashing through our capitol. people who served it in the military. people who were police officers. so the professionals sometimes, even their ranks are filled with people not necessarily looking at the national interests. donald trump is saying those types of people are welcome because he thinks they will serve him. >> yeah, although i have to put in a word here and say i taught

military officers more than 25 years, you know, hundreds and hundreds of them, and, you know, i think people should understand that our -- the u.s. military is full of loyal, honorable people who understand their duty to the constitution. but trump is trying to speak to, again this very narrow kind of disaffected group of people who have these heroic fantasies about how they are going to be saviors of the constitution. they are not there to be search the country, to be a part of their team or their unit. they are there because they think they are part of some, you know, big scheme in which they are the main character and they are going to save america from all these nefarious forces, and that's what binds a lot of these extremists together, this very -- this kind of marriage of insecurity and adolescence to this immense grandiosity. and trump plays to that. i mean, they love to hear that

stuff about you are my people, you are going to save america. >> yeah. and they believe it. and he is -- very quickly, go ahead. >> yeah, just it's a messianic fervor. the call of duty fantasy they think is how you protect democracy, when in fact those humble volunteers who show up to the polling place to bork the polls on election day, those are people saving democracy. absolutely. >> there will be attention on that in our multiple and national security. thank you both. coming up, rudy giuliani had a no good horrible very bad day in tort ko are the yesterday. so bad that it got pathetic. this is what trump loyalty ultimately gets you all the way to rock bottom. stay with us. fofrz l the way to rock bottom stay with us fofr the first fda-cleared ed treatment available without a prescription. eroxon gel is clinically proven to work within ten minutes, so you and your partner can experience the heights of intimacy. new eroxon ed treatment gel.

worst terrorist attacks our country has seen, who became donald trump's lawyer after years of selling access to his 9/11 celebrity status now, according to him, left impoverished. a clear case for maga sycophants out there, this is what blind loyalty gets you. everything trump touches dies, including careers. giuliani a was ordered to pay $150 million to two georgia election workers, ruby freeman and shaye moss, whom he defamed while challenging the 2020 election results in their stayed. court hearing was held because lawyers claim giuliani failed to turn over his assets as required by the courts. suffice to say it was not a good day for rudy, who lashed out at the court in court, something he should know better to do as a former u.s. attorney. he appeared with a new lawyer,

asked to be removed, due to a, quote, difference of opinion of rudy giuliani. nowhere to see is donald trump, who barely lifted a finger to help a man he called a great guy and wonderful lawyer. giuliani claims that trump and the rnc owe him $2 million. which he could really use right now. but giuliani has been left with being disbarred in washington, d.c., and new york as a result of his efforts to push trump's big lie. he is expected back in dort in d.c. next month. he could be found in contempt of court for continuing to falsely accuse the two poll workers of having committed election fraud. and then in janelle face a trial in new york city whether he has to turn over other assets, his florida home and collection of four world series rings to miss freeman and moss, and yet rudy says he does not regret a thing. not even for a minute. joining me now is catherine christian, former manhattan

attorney and the reverend al sharpton, president of the national action network and host of "politicsnation" and somebody who had a long time adversarial relationship with rudy giuliani. rudy giuliani seems to have been brought low, and yet he has asked the court to push the trial back in january so he can attend donald trump's inauguration. the judge said no. his social calendar has nothing to do with his court cases. but that's how pathetic it is. donald trump owes him money, hasn't paid him, he has been destroyed for his support for donald trump's big lie, stripped of his mansion, stripped of his ring collection, and yet he still is a sycophant to donald trump. please explain what is going on with this rather pathetic man. >> he is rather pathetic to see the situation. when you look at it in the broader context, rudy giuliani, who had a hostile relationship with the black community when he was mayor, police killings would

happen, he would show no empathy, no balance at all in what was being appealed to by the black community. and then you see him now with two black women, has brought him to accountability. but the real underlying story is that donald trump, who he was loyal to, has shown no loyalty to him, no statements, no tweets, nothing saying anything that he would back him up, which means he is all into people in washington now that are doing dances trying to get the anointing and blessings of when donald trump should -- rudy giuliani and know that you can end up just as abandoned as rudy giuliani. if he would do this to giuliani, what would he do to all of those that went around this country selling a bill of goods that he

will not deliver on for people, no matter who they are, whether they are white in appalachia or black in west atlanta. he is one and only knows one thing, what is beneficial for rudy giuliani -- i mean for donald trump. rudy giuliani is the case example of the loyalty of donald trump is not reciprocal. >> right. catherine, i mean, it really goes across the board. donald trump has had withdrawn the cases against him, potato for stealing classified documents and attempting a coup to overthrow the government. everyone else is still being charged. he could wipe away the other gentlemen for having tried to help him steal those documents. but let's just go to the co-defendants in georgia. donald trump was charged with 18 other people, including the head of blacks for trump harris and floyd. they are being charged. four of them already took plea

deals. then when you go to the classified documents case, two still charged with hiding classified documents, including nuclear secrets in donald trump's house, some in the bathroom, they are still charged. i mean, that is the lesson, right? everyone around donald trump faces accountability, goes to prison, all those january 6th defendants. he skates through and forgets about them. >> and he can do something with the defendants on the classified documents case because they are federal crimes. he could pardon them. but georgia he can't help them in any way because it's a state crime. rudy giuliani, this was a civil case. he is a bankrupt now disbarred attorney, and that's his life now. and donald trump can't pardon him for his defamation verdict. so, yes, as the reverend al said, and we are both native new yorkers, so we are very familiar with rudy giuliani.

i mean, he was the u.s. attorney of what so supposed to the premiere u.s. attorney's office in the country and the mayor, and he is now, as i said, a disbarred, bankrupt person, and, you know, he is going to trial on six january 16. donald trump will not be there. so this is what happens to people, unfortunately, who are in the trump world and we see what's happening to rudy giuliani. >> and the thing about it is, rev, look, i was born in brooklyn. so was he. he never stepped food in brooklyn. when he was mayor he didn't want to come to brooklyn, he wanted the national security apparatus to be in the world trade center, moved the national intelligence apparatus after the bombing. he has a history. to your point, there is a karmic nature to the way this has gone, right. i mean, you know, other than donald trump, who faced no accountability, everyone around him who did dirt for him is

paying the price alone because -- what do you think the chances are that donald trump is going to write him a check and help him out financially? >> well, think i i think littl because he will not care one bit. he is not expressing any word at all in support of rudy giuliani. and i think that the lesson is for those that would throw any kind of sense of morality and ethics to the wind to serve donald trump will suffer the same fate. you couldn't be more loyal than giuliani. giuliani was a national figure, had been ex told and heralded before he -- even knew donald trump would get in politics. look where he is now. at the end he may have for a moment sunshine, but the darkness is going to come when you stand on the dark side- i

say as a preacher, you sow, you shall also reap. >> a.j. and catherine, one of the exonerated five is a city councilman in harlem. they had lives of decency and respectability. advocating for the community. and the people that, for those of us who lived in new york, were villainous. it's hard to overstate how cruel rudy giuliani was to the black community. how insensitive he was to people of dollar. he just didn't care. now he is out there whining he doesn't have any cash. >> and these two women, who actually are mother and daughter, miss shea and miss freeman, two black women, you know, he has allegedly defamed them again. it now the d.c. judge is determining whether or not he should be held in contempt. so, you know, i don't know whether it's a matter of, you

know, some issue. there are plenty of 80-year-olds who are cognitively intact and not mean. but he clearly has shown no remorse. >> and these women were tortured, tormented, had to leave their homes because of death threats caused by his defamation. as the rev, what you sow, so shall you reap. thank you both very much. coming up, trump's threats against blue cities growing, even threatening to arrest mayors. the stitt for new york city mayor joins me to talk about that next. stay with us. r joins me to talkt that next. stay with us % off gifts crafted by small businesses. get fetching finds for friends with fur friends and everyone else on your list. for up to 60% off gifts that say i get you. etsy has it.

one of the few checks on trump's looming hold on power, democrat stronghold a frequent target for the pooch president's men eager to fulfill their dear leader's promise to conduct via the deployment of the u.s. military on u.s. soil the largest deportation in american history. trump's border czar thomas homan of project 2025 infamy has threatened to arrest mayors who don't fall in line. something he would have no legal authority to do. his repeated vows to cut funding to sanctuary states, however, which have been pair atted on capitol hill are raising alarm on democratic leaders at the state level.

"the washington post" advanced that reporting today adding that trump transition advisors are discussing how to unilaterally strip federal resources from chicago and other democratic-run cities if they refuse to participate in deportations. these are federal resources that play a critical role in funding housing, health care and education. it creates a situation that requires courage and a strong idealogical backbone from our democratic leaders. but in some cities run by blue mayors, they really find themselves standing on the other side of purple. some opting to try to schmooze trump. we are already seeing complying in advance taking place. the times reporting that new york city officials are drawing up plans to shutter a giant brooklyn migrant shelter and the mayor's office tells fox he will close another dozen before the end of the year. joining me is michael blake,

former obama aide, and the exi to join a crowded field of candidates for new york city. i want to start there. eric adams has been playing footsie with trump on immigration and taken a hard line about some 42,000 migrants who have been shipped politically as a political maneuver from texas and florida and other red states. what would your stance be on the migrant community there, and as mayor would you comply with mass deportations? >> i absolutely would not comply. it's good to see you, joy. we have a mayor who he had more priority and focus of seeing trump at a ufc fight on a saturday than actually helping the people. one of the many reasons aim running for mayor is that we have a mayor who truly is making it clare that he does not care at all about new yorkers. he only cares about making donald trump happy for his own

protection. yesterday it was communicated when we launched our campaign that 12% of new yorkers do not want this man. only 12%. that's it. 12% for re-election. he has no -- >> uh-oh. >> full stop. >> michael -- let me go through why some of -- you froze for a moment. hopefully, we have your sound and your connection is okay. we will get you on the phone. we are having trouble with the wifi gods. mayor adams, the reason that as you said maybe 12% want him to run for re-election. he has an alleged -- he is accused of corruption. prosecutors say adams received free plane tickets, luxury hotel stays, illegal campaign contributions, charged with conspiracy to commit wire fraud, federal program bribery. he also is accused of solicitation and contributions from a foreign national.

on and on and on. he could face 45 years in prison. he could face five years for the wire fraud charges and 20 years -- 20 years for the wire fraud charges and 10 years for bribery. he is facing a lot of potential time. so do you think his actions, the things he says and does are because he wants a pardon? and is that part of your campaign message, that this is somebody risking going to prison and has to play ball even if it's cruelty to people in new york? >> air adams is only doing this to stay out of jail. he is not doing the work because he wants to help the new york city public. when we think about what is at stake right now, new yorkers are concerned about cost of living, about what happens around immigration, what's happening around crime and safety. and all eric adams is doing is delaying and avoiding and making a fascist happy as opposed to helping new yorkers. full stop.

and we have to be incredibly concerned. when we think about what's at stake right now, you have come on january 20th, 2025, one of the many reasons why we are running, at the end of the day you have a donald trump presidency where he is saying he is doing to deport in mass immigrants. not just individuals on their own. it will be families that are impacted as well. i am running because we have a focus and a vision called tomorrow begins today where we have to make sure that all the attacks that are coming out of d.c. are actually creating opportunities for our communities. eric adams is concerned about one person. eric adams. when you think about even today where a judge deemed he couldn't keep rikers island functional, if he ran on law and order and safety and he can't even keep those safe who are incarcerated, how can he keep you safe? all he cares about is staying out of jail. what i care about is making sure you have a job. >> let me ask you a couple of questions that people are thinking about light now. incoming administration said

they want to delist and defund charitable organizations that they decided are terrorist supporting because they are pro-palestinian and target schools, deport students who protest, use the military against protesters. what would be your tact towards protesters on university campuses? >> we have to make it very clear that everyone has an opportunity to speak their voice and mind. just because someone speaks their mind doesn't mean you are demeaning either say. you should say as a mayor that what happened on october 7th to the jewish people and people of israel is reprehensible. it's also reprehensible what is happening to the palestinians. at the end of the day, you have to be a mayor that is willing to speak up on behalf of the people. and say, i will allow you to have your voice out here. eric adams made it very clear he would listen to donors and his entities at the nypd to actually stop you from having a voice. however, when it comes to what

we need to do, make sure that students and young people in our communities actually have a voice in the process. so within this vision and our vision is making it clear. number one, how do we think about universal childcare and addressing cost of living. you shouldn't be able to go to school and wonder if you can pay your bills. make sure that new yorkers are safe and secure. if you come out of from school, you should be able to get back home safely. make sure we are addressing the challenges around homelessness and in particular new york city's students that are homeless right now. and so we think about this, you have to be a mayor that helps everyone. eric adams is not that. 12% of new yorkers are the only ones who said he should be re-elected. we have an opportunity for change. so that is why we are running. >> new york city mayoral candidate michael blake, good luck. thank you fortunately being here. sorry about the wifi issues i appreciate your being here. coming up, i have thoughts ahead of thanksgiving dinner on

the hypocrisy of victimhood. you don't want to miss it. you d.

so apparently the people who voted for the i will protect women whether they like it not childless woman should have no rights, haitians had eat your pets gang are the real victims despite their guy winning the

election. in fact, they are now the modern day equivalent of rosa parks we're told by a white comedian. civil rights heroes the lot of them. and the rest of us among the 73 million americans who voted not to have fashich, autocracy, mass deportations internment camps and economy crushing tariffs are the bad guys. the segregationists of our time if we, hold on, let me check my notes, yes, don't want to have turkey dinner with the people screaming your body my choice. okay. so there is this strong dual energy among maga people and their apologists and it actually fits quite neatly the history of america. it's equal parts bully energy where they want to troll liberals and lash out at minorities and victim energy where those same liberals are supposed to take the trolling quietly and also pity the trolls. it's the eternal victimhood of

the conservative. we need to constantly coddle, study and understand them, no, not the media, the big thinksers, not the comedians are required to try to understand liberals and progressives. no, no. we must seek to understand those on the right, what they really meant by their votes, what they want, what they need. we are the constant handmaidens and wet nurses required to baby them, understand them and serve them dinner. and if we want just a mental health break from their conspiracy theories and complaints about trans people in the bathroom and on the soccer field and in the schools reading to kids at the library and apparently hiding under their beds, we are the ones in the bronc. our dinner, their choice. it's the same energy their forefathers had towards the indigenous tribes. hey, let's have thanksgiving dinner on the land we stole from you. before we pack you off to the reservation and snuff out your culture, could you please pass the corn on the cob.

massacres wiping out black communities from louisiana to north carolina to rosewood, florida and tulsa, oklahoma, where black communities were burned to the ground by racist white mobs, gent fified when rich folks-wanted to live downtown. you got king data juneteenth, what more to you want, accurate history? what, you trying to hurt our feelings? these are the people who say the undocumented who they get to call illegal immigrants like the pilgrims had permission to come here have to suffer the consequences of their actions. they made the choice to overstay their visas, so if they get defor theed, consequences. you right wingers shouldn't have the suffer the consequences of your votes? you don't want to be around me because i voted for fascism. no fair. i am coughing on you with covid. you want me to wear a mask for your safety? not fair.

my body, my choice. make your own dinner, maga, wipe your answer tears, troll amongst your receive with elon and leave us alone. the president you dream of and worship instead of jesus and them time you didn't have to storm the capitol or issue death threats to pole workers. you did is by voting this time. congrats. you got your way. and he got away with breaking the law. yay. but if you expect the 73 million who voted for the prosecutor not the felon and particularly the 92% of black women who voted for kamala to give you a cookie for your vote, a trophy, a hug, a high-five, you might be asking too much. if we want to eat with you, we will. but if we want some peace over the holidays and we don't want to put up with your trolling while we eat our turkey, get over it. stop acting like we owe you. stop whining. it's em bera asing.

our thanksgiving, our choice. when we come back, a special announcement you are not going to want to miss. pecial announcement you are not going to want to miss.

the results of the recent election were to word a profound disappointment for so many, obscured some really important facts that history will remember, history will recall, should we still have history, that, loaded debbie
