Thanksgiving: America’s Forgotten Religious Holiday
Posted By: Moritz55, 11/28/2025 2:39:00 PM
Thanksgiving is America’s forgotten religious holiday. Not simply a holiday, it was meant to be a true holy day. That it is forgotten as such runs counter to the original Thanksgiving. It also runs counter to logic. And it also runs right into those who seek to imbue it with their own cultural causes. America has many holidays that have nothing to do with “holy days,” from whence the word came. Labor Day is a holiday but not a holy day. Arbor Day is on the calendar but hardly holy — perhaps, unless you are a druid. “Holiday” has become just a secularized term

Convicted killer Bryan Kohberger was recently accused of throwing a tantrum over the fruit selection at a maximum-security Idaho prison where he is serving multiple life sentences for the murders of four University of Idaho students in 2022. The 31-year-old, housed at the Idaho Maximum Security Institution, has reportedly been "complaining about the type of bananas he’s being served," according to Chris McDonough, a retired homicide detective employed by the Cold Case Foundation.
"They’re not the kind that he likes," McDonough told the Daily Mail.

In the contention over the United States’ peace plan for Ukraine, the Europeans are in their accustomed role — carping from the sidelines.
Not only can the once-great European powers no longer dictate the fate of far-flung parts of the world, they can’t even dictate the end of a war involving a European country whose fate they deem crucial to their own future.
We’re a long way from the British controlling about a quarter of the globe’s territory in the early 20th century; a long way from British and French diplomats, Mark Sykes and François Georges-Picot respectively, drawing the lines in 1916 to divide up the Ottoman Empire;
You have to be careful with a country. Even a nation as vast in size and huge in population as the United States cannot be endlessly experimented upon. You cannot just leave borders open, or allow in large numbers of people with totally different value systems from your own.
That is the mistake many European countries have committed in recent years. They have opened their homes up to people from almost every part of the world where there is civil strife, war or just a lower standard of living.
The results can be seen everywhere. It is the reason why a country like Sweden
The Trump administration has successfully addressed the “three I’s” that he said were devastating working-class Americans: immigration, interest rates, and inflation, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said in an exclusive interview with Breitbart Business Digest co-authors Alex Marlow and John Carney released Monday.
Bessent pointed to a March 2024 article he wrote for Fox Digital titled “How the Three I’s Are Eviscerating Working Americans” as the framework for understanding the administration’s economic progress.
Democrats are seeking to put limits on private donations to foot the bill for President Donald Trump's new White House ballroom amid what they say are bribery concerns. Trump announced in October that construction had started on the ballroom — leading to the demolition of the White House’s historic East Wing — and would be privately funded at an estimated cost of $300 million. That was up from the $200 million estimate first provided in July when the project was unveiled.
But Democrats are concerned the donors — including individuals and other organizations — are footing the bill for the project because they are seeking

Or perhaps Jefferson Davis? He ultimately ordered the attack by South Carolina state forces against the federal garrison at Fort Sumter, which ignited the Civil War.

My close friends blame me for everything that Donald Trump does.
One year ago I, a lifelong Democrat, wrote in The Free Press that I had just voted for Trump. I realized that my party had turned its back on working-class families like my own—in favor of identity politics, free trade, and open borders. Many people warned me about publishing the essay. They told me the reaction would be brutal, and they were right. Strangers on the internet relentlessly harassed me. Death threats flooded my inboxes. People accused me of being a Russian asset.
They also told me that the left would use it against me when
A new investigation found that Minnesota taxpayer dollars were going far beyond the North Star State's borders and ending up in the hands of Al-Shabaab, an al Qaeda-linked terror group. Ryan Thorpe and Christopher F. Rufo of the Manhattan Institute uncovered a web of fraud involving Minnesota’s Medicaid Housing Stabilization Services program, Feeding Our Future and other organizations in a bombshell report. Thorpe and Rufo noted that, in many cases, members of Minnesota's Somali community were perpetrators of fraud. They added that federal counterterrorism sources confirmed that millions of dollars in stolen funds were sent back to Somalia, which is how Al-Shabaab got the cash
If you have a TV or social media, chances are you’ve seen Scott Jennings in his element: when he’s owning the libs.
No one does it better.
The CNN senior political commentator and Republican strategist has become one of the leading voices for conservatives around the country. He’s often the only Republican at the table, and he deftly takes on his liberal counterparts with rationality and humor. Jennings’ meme-perfect expressions of amused disbelief at what progressives say often speak for themselves.
Leading up to Donald Trump’s second term, Jennings was able to break down the president’s appeal to many conservatives for CNN viewers,
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has updated its website with a new stance on the potential link between vaccines and autism. The new wording on the CDC’s site states, "The claim 'vaccines do not cause autism' is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism.
"Studies supporting a link have been ignored by health authorities." The agency noted that the statement "vaccines do not cause autism" has been "historically disseminated" by the CDC and other federal health agencies in an effort to prevent vaccine hesitancy.
Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., announced on Thursday he is launching a campaign for California governor in 2026. The congressman and longtime foe of President Donald Trump made the announcement during an appearance on the late-night show, "Jimmy Kimmel Live!"
"He’s going to hate tonight’s episode," Swalwell wrote on X in response to a social media post from the president criticizing Kimmel for being "biased" and having "no talent." The Democrat lawmaker vowed to be a "protector and fighter" if elected governor.

Friday on CNN’s “News Central,” Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) said that President Donald Trump’s deployment of “military troops in the nation‘s capital or in any city” should be reconsidered because it caused two members of the National Guard to be shot in Washington, D.C. on Wednesday.
Wasserman Schultz said, “This is a deeply concerning situation, but, you know, it’s one that I think we have to — it begs the question, would an individual have flown across the country to target law enforcement officers in Washington, D.C.? And, I mean, the answer is likely no. So why wasn‘t the president‘s first thought,

President Donald Trump announced on Friday he is terminating all documents allegedly signed by former President Joe Biden with the autopen.
In a Truth Social post, Trump claimed 92% of documents signed during Biden's presidency were done so with the device.
"The Autopen is not allowed to be used if approval is not specifically given by the President of the United States," Trump wrote. "The Radical Left Lunatics circling Biden around the beautiful Resolute Desk in the Oval Office took the Presidency away from him."

On Friday’s broadcast of “CNN This Morning,” Rep. Jake Auchincloss (D-MA) stated that Congress should look at vetting for people coming to the country under the asylum or parole systems and there can also be an examination of vetting “during critical moments in someone’s journey.” And stated that “If this administration is going to be tightening the screws on vetting, they should tighten the screws on vetting for purchasing a weapon as well.”
Auchincloss said, “At the national level, if we’re worried about public safety and vetting in regards to this tragedy, yes, we should be looking at vetting for asylum or parole,

The left has totally succumbed to Trump Derangement Syndrome, so much so that it’s difficult to look at them as serious players in the political arena as they ramble on with one inane analogy after another. (Snip) One such example of this strategy is Trump’s efforts to build a sorely needed White House ballroom. But few have gone down the rabbit hole as deep as CNN contributor Tiffany Cross, who dared to say, “This sounds to me like someone is building a structure that he does not plan on leaving, and that’s something we need to start taking very seriously.”
President Donald Trump late Thursday said that the United States may “almost completely” eliminate the income tax due to the rising tariff revenue.
n the next couple of years, I think we’ll substantially be cutting, or maybe cutting out completely, but we’ll be cutting income tax,” Trump said during an event on Thursday.
“Could be almost completely cutting it because the money we’re taking in is going to be so large,” he added.
The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) in June projected that the tariff increases will reduce the federal deficit by $2.8 trillion over the next decade.

The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade kicked off its annual festivities on Thursday, Nov. 27. But many viewers say the broadcast left a lot to be desired. NBC started livecoverage at 8:30 a.m. EST with hosts Savannah Guthrie, Hoda Kotb and Al Roker. But having tuned in then, I can say the actual parade didn’t start until 9 a.m. EST. (Snip) Within minutes, frustrated viewers took to Reddit to vent about the broadcast feeling more like an ad break marathon than a parade. “Respectfully … I [couldn’t] care less about what you have to say I would rather see the balloons,”
Democratic Tennessee congressional candidate Aftyn Behn said in resurfaced audio that lawmakers openly praying during legislative sessions make her “uncomfortable.”
While appearing on the “Red State Blue Moon” podcast in June 2024, Behn complained that the Tennessee Legislature opens up with prayer at the beginning of each legislative session. She further complained that Christian pastors and prayer groups have “proximity to power” in the Legislature and that religion is often at the center of the state’s politics.
“And I think, especially as someone who is more secular, I have a hard time when religion is at the core of everything we do in the Legislature. For example, on the House floor,

From Third-World Countries - ‘You Won’t
Be Here for Long’ 17 replies
President Trump went on a fiery late-night tirade in clear response to the recent terrorist attack on the National Guard, announcing a significant crackdown on immigration from all third-world countries, terminating all illegal entries into the country under the Biden administration, and declaring the only way to save America now is through "reverse migration."
Trump's screed comes in the wake of an ambush attack on two members of the Guard in Washington, D.C., and just hours after the President made the heartbreaking announcement to the nation that one of the victims, 20-year-old Sarah Beckstrom, had succumbed to her injuries.
The individual behind the heinous attack was
New Jersey governor-elect Mikie Sherrill (D.) turned to former energy secretary Jennifer Granholm, an architect of Biden-era green energy policies—which polls show are unpopular with Garden State voters—to co-chair her transition team’s energy task force.
The governor-elect’s energy team is a quasi-reunion of Biden administration alumni—in addition to Granholm, former Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) member Allison Clements will serve as its other co-chair. It’s a signal that although Sherrill ran to the middle on energy issues during her gubernatorial campaign, she is prepared to govern as a climate hawk. Granholm and Clements have a long history of supporting far-left policies, such as EV mandates, gas stove bans, and expensive
Bronze Star recipient Mark Lucas detailed how the U.S. military’s Afghan allies were “untrustworthy” and perpetuated a barbaric culture of pedophilia and abusing women in an interview after it was revealed that the suspect in the Washington, DC, shooting of two members of the National Guard is an Afghan national who previously worked with the CIA.
Rahmanullah Lakanwal, 29, arrived in the United States in 2021 under the Biden administration’s Operation Allies Welcome project in the aftermath of the botched withdrawal from Afghanistan.
The Washington state resident and father of five worked in “a special CIA-backed Afghan Army unit” before leaving his home country, the Associated Press reported.

A former World Trade Center worker who “narrowly escaped” the Sept. 11, 2001 terror attacks has been beaten to death by three teens — one of whom was just 12 at the time of the attack, according to officials.
Long Island native Roger Borkum, 64, was found “severely beaten” just before midnight on Oct. 19 in Downtown Jacksonville, FL., after three teens were seen “kicking and stomping” him, according to an arrest report from the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office.
