Welcome back to hashtag sisters-in-law with Jill Wine Banks, Kimberly Atkins store, and me, Joyce Vance.

Barb will be back soon. We always miss her when she's gone.

The gift-giving season is here. Don't forget, you can check out our merch store.

We have just restocked it. Everything is there in time for the holidays.

So go to politicon.com slash merch.

This week, we have a surprisingly full docket of topics to talk with you about for a holiday week.

First up, the end of the federal criminal cases against Donald Trump. Then the challenge federal

employees will face in the new administration. And finally, this really off-the-wall comment

made by Elon Musk early this week and the unusual role he is playing at Trump's

right hand so far. But before we get down to the serious stuff, y'all, you know me, I've got to ask,

what was the best thing that you put in your mouth on Thanksgiving Day? Kim.

Oh, that's a good question. So I'm going to abstain from considering my own sweet potato pie, a picture of which I believe I posted online.

But and say it is my husband Greg's dressing recipe, which is a take on his mom's dressing recipe.

But it includes a homemade skillet cornbread as the bread and a whole bunch of

other yummy ingredients and absolutely no form of nuts or fruit, which is crucial, crucial to a good

dressing. So that was, that's always what I look most forward to.

I love a good cornbread dressing, man.

That sounds so good.

Okay, Jill.

Everything was delicious.

It was really truly one of the best thanksgivings I've ever had,

both in terms of friends and in terms of the food.
