Less than two weeks away! I’m including links to various methods for handling your turkey. I pick and choose parts of each for mine.

I received my free range turkey on Saturday from Butcher Box. As I have done for several years now, I will cut the bird into pieces and dry brine it before roasting on the big day.

President-elect Donald J. Trump names Brendan Carr as Chairman of the FCC

Posted on November 18, 2024 by Stella

Finally, someone who’ll shred the FCC’s red tape and leave the woke mob’s censorship fantasies in the dust – what a time to be alive!

Carr, the senior Republican at the FCC, has been a vocal advocate for Free Speech and fighting regulatory overreach.

Trump praised Carr as a “warrior for Free Speech” who will end the “regulatory lawfare that has stifled Americans’ freedoms and job creators.”

Carr has served at the FCC since 2012, working closely with previous Chairman Ajit Pai, and brings years of legal and regulatory expertise to the role.

Freedom just got an upgrade.
