Welcome to a special Saturday, November 14, 2026, morning update. Because yesterday I said I’d talk to you tomorrow, so here I am talking to you tomorrow.
Thanksgiving, food, friends, family, loved ones, and it has a lot of history. American foundational history.
And fascists love to rewrite history, redefine it, rearrange it, reimagine it. So Thanksgiving has had a huge target on its back ever since cultural Marxism got its footing.
The big problem appears to be the religious overtones. Thanking God for your blessings, however many they may be. Well, that’s pretty offensive to secular humanists who don’t believe in God or blessings. They believe in power and control. And they’d like to have the power to control Thanksgiving.
We have Friendsgiving, but you know, if you’re gathering to have a meal together and appreciate each other and the few blessings or many blessings that you have, you’re still doing the same thing. But it sucks all the religious overtone out.
But they can’t just cancel it, not yet. And odds are pretty good that even if they were to take over, they would just change it into something else.
Which is interesting because one of their objections to Thanksgiving is that it was started by colonizers, people who came here and stole the land. But stealing land from people and imposing your culture on them is something that human beings do, and ironically, it is exactly what the Marxists and the secular humanists are doing to Thanksgiving.
Unfortunately for us, they march through the institutions that educate our children. And we didn’t take them out. So they have a growing army of people who were like, Well, yeah, that’s bad.
Without ever mentioning that every great, wonderful thing they have and all the reasons why everybody else in the world wants to live here are a result of what happened after the first Thanksgiving.
But they are persistent.
Quote: Public school teachers in Loudoun County, Virginia, looking to teach their students about American holidays, can draw from a list of district-approved lesson plans, including one recommended for second graders that declares Thanksgiving a day of mourning, and another that calls Columbus Day a debated celebration.
The only real debate should be why parents are still forced to put their children into the Loudoun County School System and all the other ones like it.
In addition to its Thanksgiving and Indigenous People’s Day sections, the district’s resources for recognition days include a section on LGBTQ History Month. The section’s guiding questions for teacher planning includes how might we teach about LGBTQ History Month while recognizing that inequality and prejudice continue to exist.
But not the prejudice against Jews and Christians and their religious holidays.
And Jimmy can’t read or do math. But he’s having some serious concerns about whether or not he should chop off his wiener and change his name to Jennifer.
You wanna talk about days of mourning? How about every single kid who has to get on a school bus or get dropped off at a public school?
I know, now that Democrats are back in power, we’re gonna have to listen to an awful lot of this, but on the upside, it has absolutely nothing to do with affordability. And as I said in GrokTALK! last week, you need to remind them of that. You need to write op-eds; you need to send letters to websites like mine; you need to continue the nonstop drumbeat.
What does this have to do with affordability?
That’s it for today. I’ll talk to you on Monday.
