Trump announces new peace talks in surprise Thanksgiving visit to Afghanistan
President Trump made a surprise visit to Afghanistan on Thursday to spend part of Thanksgiving with U.S. troops, AP reports. During the visit, Trump's first to Afghanistan, he announced that the U.S. and the Taliban have reopened peace talks. He said he believes the Taliban want a truce in America's longest war. "We're meeting with them," Trump said. "And we're saying it has to be a ceasefire." Trump had cut off talks with the Taliban in September and canceled a secret meeting between Taliban and Afghan leaders after a flurry of violence. During Trump's 3 1/2 hours at Bagram Air Field, Trump also served turkey to U.S. soldiers, who cheered him when he entered the dining hall. About 12,000 American troops remain in Afghanistan.

Jacob Collier – “Time Alone With You” (Feat. Daniel Caesar)
Jacob Collier is one of those blokes who's been around for years and years, building steam outside the critical conversation, forging relationships across the music industry. He first came to fame as a North London teenager posting splitscreen covers on YouTube in 2012. Now 25, he's become the kind of unstoppable force who can tour the world behind a four-part, 50-song album he's releasing over the course of two or three years. That project is called Djesse, and today — on the heels of contributing to Coldplay's Everyday Life — he's beginning to roll out the third volume. The four volumes of Djesse supposedly represent the four phases of the day. They present Collier's omnivorous ethos, which brings together elements of classical, funk, jazz, folk, soul, hip-hop, and alternative rock among other traditions. He really goes out of his way to cast a wide net, but not at the expense of coherence. Vol. 1, released last December, involved contributions from Laura Mvula, Voces8, Hamid El
