Gov. Greg Abbott (R-TX) endorsed Donald Trump for president in the 2024 election during a meeting in Texas on Sunday. “We need a president who is going to secure the border. We need a president who is going to restore law and order in the United States of America, not letting any of these criminals run ransack over the stores that you see images of almost nightly,” Abbott said. “We need a president who is going to restore world peace as opposed to this outbreak of warfare under Joe Biden. We need Donald J. Trump back as our president of the United States of America.”

President Joe Biden’s Thanksgiving festivities started on Sunday as he and first lady Jill Biden celebrated an early holiday meal with servicemen and servicewomen. The president visited USS Dwight D. Eisenhower and the USS Gerald R. Ford at Naval Station Norfolk in Virginia, where he served Thanksgiving dinner. Biden was in charge of serving mashed potatoes, while the first lady served sweet potato casserole, according to the Associated Press.
