Former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick said he spent his Thanksgiving
celebrating "Unthanksgiving Day," which seeks to bring attention to the
federal government's treatment of Native Americans.

"Spent the morning at the Indigenous People’s Sunrise Ceremony on the 50
year anniversary of the Occupation of Alcatraz," Kaepernick said Thursday
on Twitter. "The US government has stolen over 1.5 billion acres of land
from Indigenous people. Thank you to my Indigenous family, I’m with you
today and always."

Native American activists host "Unthanksgiving Day" on Alcatraz Island in
San Francisco Bay. "In this political climate, coming here is my way of
honoring those who have sacrificed so much so we can have our rights
recognized locally and globally," Daisee Francour, a member of the Oneida
Nation, said about this year's event.

"This is a colonialist and capitalist holiday," Kanyon Sayers-Roods, a
member of the Mutsun Ohlone, said of Thanksgiving. Sayer-Roods is a
frequent attendee of Unthanksgiving, although she skipped the event this
year. She said Thanksgiving, despite its "colonialist" roots, "can still
be a time to share space with family and the land."

Kaepernick, 32, has been out the NFL for three years, but recently held
tryouts for several NFL teams. He has been an outspoken activist and led
anthem-kneeling protests in support of social justice when he was in the
league.

Colin Kaepernick, destroyed and manipulated by racist sociologist Harry
Edwards and too stupid to realize it.

Donald J. Trump, 304 electoral votes to 227, defeated compulsive liar in
denial Hillary Rodham Clinton on December 19th, 2016. The clown car
parade of the democrat party ran out of gas and got run over by a Trump
truck.

Congratulations President Trump. Thank you for cleaning up the disaster
of the Obama presidency.

The Obama-led Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS)
approved Uranium One in fall 2010. With a little luck, we'll see
compulsive liar Hillary Clinton in jail before she dies.

Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
The World According To Garp.

Obama increased total debt from $10 trillion to $20 trillion in the eight
years he was in office, and sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood queer
liberal democrat donors.
