Apple Cider Caramel Sauce That happens to have a lemony cheesecake on the side

What am I making for Thanksgiving dessert? This recipe of mine from a few years ago. Even if you don't want to bother making a cheesecake, the apple cider caramel over some ice cream would make a VERY FINE dessert.

i’m sure someone else has already put this together but fucking wild he called for members of congress to be hanged the same day the coast guard said a noose is no longer a hate symbol

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.

Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

A tweet appearing to be from β€œHomeland Security @DHSGov” reads:
β€œWomp womp, cry all you want. These criminal illegal aliens aren’t getting released.
Like clockwork, violent rioters have arrived at the Broadview ICE facility to demand the release of some of the worst human beings on planet earth.
Get a job you imbecilic morons.”
Below the text is a news clip image showing a crowded protest outside an ICE facility. People stand closely together, some being held back by police officers. A banner in the background reads β€œGod’s love dwells here.” A NewsNation chyron at the bottom says: β€œBREAKING NEWS: NOW: PROTESTERS ARRESTED AT IL ICE FACILITY.”

A Trump supporter started murdering his way through an assassination list of Democratic law makers FIVE MONTHS AGO. He murdered my colleague Melissa Hortman, and her husband Mark β€” and attempted to assassinate my dear friend John Hoffman and his wife Yvette. I was also on the hit list. WTF

So, apparently, to our president, upholding your oath and calling for the military to support and obey the Constitution is...seditious behavior. But calling for members of Congress (who are also honored veterans) to be hanged because they are honoring the Constitution is...just fine.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

Opinion | Jamal Khashoggi: What the Arab world needs most is free expression The Arab world needs a modern version of the old transnational media so citizens can be informed about global events.

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.
