Holidays are a time when many Americans gather as families for the only time during a year. The cousin from Pittsburgh. The sister-in-law from San Francisco. Uncle Charlie who lives a few miles away but never ventures out unless there’s turkey for the taking. Families come together on Thanksgiving and Christmas.
When families come together, there’s a good chance that someone will be a leftist. In my family, it’s an entire side of the family – mine. I’m the black sheep but I married well and her family is conservative, so it balances out.
Clever commentator Andrew Klavan from DailyWire has some advice for those faced by the leftist at the holiday table.
“So whatever your leftist relatives have to say this Thanksgiving, just let them know what it would sound like with a little bit of gratitude thrown in.
“Then tell them to shut the hell up and eat.”
It doesn’t quite do the whole story justice… so go read it now:
KLAVAN: What If Leftists Said ‘Thank You’ Too?
No one wants to get into a political argument with his leftist relatives over Thanksgiving dinner (for some reason). So here’s a fun way to bring those potentially dangerous conversations to a quick conclusion. Try translating all your kin’s leftist assertions into expressions of gratitude. Amazingly, as if by magic, all their ideas will disappear.
For instance, let’s say your socialist Uncle Sy approvingly quotes former President Barack Obama in saying that America is “still confused, blind, shrouded with hate, anger, racism and mommy issues.”
Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our new GiveSendGo. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Truth Based Media
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
