Good point. Also no fanfare - that I saw, although I haven’t kept in the loop much today - about where 45 will be spending the weekend. Maybe something is up - I like that rumor, Keith.
Just peeked at the comment son Markie’s tweet - they’re attacking him for counting the days on Trump, as we attacked him for keeping tabs on our wonderful President Obama! We stood proudly for a giant; Trump supporters are mortified every day by their guy, and grasping at straws. That makes me laugh all the more at them.
Someone must have finally got through to the toddler’s brain that he was getting bad press for running to Mar a Lago so much. I hope he is miserable and cries every night this weekend 😂
It all seems to come down to semantics with them. They are, for the most part, very strategic in what they say or how they say it.
I have no doubt that Pence knew about what Flynn was doing, just as 45 and the rest of his senior staff did. As far as I remember, Pence did not say that he was not aware of Flynn’s actions. He said that he was unaware about the DOJ’s warning about the susceptibility to blackmail until about a week before Flynn’s “resignation”. In the literal sense, that may be true (though I doubt that as well). But the inference — which is most likely what they intended — is that Pence had no knowledge.
I believe that Sessions was attempting the same thing when, in trying to elude an answer to Franken’s question (if it is determined that persons in 45’s campaign communicated with Russians, what would he do) he made an adamant statement about *his* innocence which turned out to be a lie 3 or 4 times over, and also put more focus on 45’s campaign/transition/WH staff.
It’s a game of “That’s not exactly what I said” and “I can’t control what people think/infer/conclude”.
PBO and MO are private citizens now, after many long and dedicated years of service to us, while raising a family, under unprecedented conditions of personal sacrifice.. Let us all respect their well-earned privacy, while wishing them the best of everything life has to offer. The time will come when they will take up sword and shield, becoming visible and devoting their energy to all of Life! In this simple way we can thank them.

Night all. Tomorrow is another day closer to the perp walk of these treasonous pigs. I feel something happening….don’t know when, don’t know how, just that it will. Hugs to all.
Love seeing these little glimpses of our forever Flotus and Potus. I just find it reassuring in some way. Boy, do they ever look like the weight of the world has been lifted from them! It thrills me that they’re received like rock stars everywhere they go, especially because you just know that drives their detractors completely crazy!! 🙂
Another greedy bastard heard from. If you have Anthem, best you try to find another insurance company…..they want to take your $$$ and not give you insurance coverage….
The greed of the insurance companies is part of problems that need to be “fixed” with ACA. Representatives from insurance companies were a part of the meetings during the development of the ACA.
But *they* made decisions in their management that resulted in losses for them that they blamed on the ACA. Republicans in Congress and GOP led states did not want to be cooperative and instead blocked (or attempted to block) aspects of the ACA that would have been profitable to insurance companies (or minimize any losses) and make the law work more efficiently and effectively.
In their greed, the insurance companies went further and in essence took their ball and went home. Merger attempts that would have countered the intent of the ACA — to keep costs lowered through competition — were thwarted. Insurance companies, in retaliation, either reduced the plans that were offered, or pulled out the marketplace all together. These independent actions by the greedy insurance corporations were, of course, blamed on the ACA.
The so-called improvements that the AHCA supposedly has over the ACA is more of a pacifier for the insurance companies. It will allow them to play their games to reduce their cost, improve their bottom line, and increase the bonuses for their CEO’s. The increased premium costs and costs of healthcare that were slowed by the implementation of the ACA will speed up. Insurance will be accessible ONLY to those who can afford it UP FRONT.
Hacked texts of Manafort's daughter reveal how he communicated covertly with Ukraine–via draft emails that are never sent @ChristinLuvsSno pic.twitter.com/JZRzPhlIUh
Many of us never wanted him or the One that appointed him to begin with! The best he could do is to take the rest of the Russian moles with him on his way out, and that includes Orange Agent.
Let me just say….this all wasn’t done on the fly. This entire fraud was planned out YEARS in advance!! Too many moving parts….interconnecting parts to be just thrown together quickly. This is a DELIBERATE act of treason! They all have to be brought to justice. NOW!

I think within a month you might as well cue up the last few minutes of the movie “Casino.” Putin is no doubt getting rid of his loose ends. It’s only a matter of time before a series of heart attacks start happening on our soil.

Oh, you thought Flynn was going to be a good solider and take the fall all by his lonesome? I imagine Flynn is having a conversation with his lawyers that goes something like this, “These fucking guys knew damn well I was doing work for Turkey before they gave me the job. “Listen, I’m not going down by myself”.
Once you spot the crazed look in Flynn’s eyes, you know exactly the scenario you played out - or something close to it - is bound to happen! He won’t be able to handle not being part of the anti-everything I’m-the-only-one-who-knows-anything crowd. He and Trump are perfect together.

Heard an article this morning where Trump is bringing in Congressional Republicans to persuade them to vote for the healthcare bill. It even included a conversation with two influential AA Dem members promising them to include bringing down the cost of drugs. The part that scared me was the effusive praise all were giving DJT for his hospitality. Lindsey Graham was even saying positive things. Then I heard a comparison given between the current and previous President concerning bringing in Congress. I am thinking of writing in to NPR about the invitation comment giving credit to DJT and downplaying PBO’s efforts. As we remember Super Bowl invitations, movie screening invitations with the entire GOP party snubbing him.
One of those was Elijah Cummings. I forget the other guy’s name. They were talking how personable and knowledgeable he is about prescription drug he is.I was at my gym on Thursday and saw this. Turned my stomach. I cold not believing what I was hearing. I tweeted Rep.Cummings to voice my displeasure.
Obama Grandmama, it’s funny how they have manage to forget all about those invitations. I don’t give a dam about Trump hospitality, I do care about the millions who will be without health insurance because the Republicans only care about the rich.

Isn’t there anyone else out there that can counteract Assange and Wikileaks? Why can he just do these things with no push back. Aren’t there anyone who can hack them, too?
BEAUTIFUL!!! Love the No Tie look:)
Oh Lawd! I love POTUS and FLOTUS.
Indeed they do……
BHO seems to be enjoying being tieless. Every current photo I have seen he has no smile and the biggest smile ever.

Why is Malik Obama being so vicious. Is he being paid?? I thought he and Barack where close! I mean he was his bestman. This really upsets me.
What is Malik Obama up too?
Malik Obama has joined the birther movement.
Bottom feeders always find one another. Malik is inconsequential to PBO and his immediate family.
probably money
Goodnight TOD …
Have a good weekend, Bob, when you get there!
Yes!
My Congressman - Mike Thompson is having a fund raiser for him. I am going. Fingers crossed he wins it.
That’s great Linda. I rooting for him too!
Yes, please.
XOXO
FLOTUS look so lovely. POTUS handsome. Okay I know they are not FLOTUS and POTUS, but to me they still are.
Always my President and First Lady.
Mine, too, Anniebella, ❤️❤️, mine, too. 🙏🏼
They look so wonderful. It’s a relief just to see a photo of them now and then. 🙂
My day gets a lift when I see 08 and 12 Obama stickers. When I see the Obamas I feel better and more hopeful.
Naughty mat!
good grief they’re gorgeous.

I love that the first words hollered were “Obamas we love you”. Yes we do. Forever.

This makes sense to me….
Was is Bernie Sanders?
🙂
Oh, yes. No “public” events but plenty of meetings with possible “Russian spies”. Give me a break!
In the Obama Administration you knew that when it was quiet on the weekends some asshole somewhere around the world was soon to meet his demise.
Indeed.
Let me just say….this all wasn’t done on the fly. This entire fraud was planned out YEARS in advance!! Too many moving parts….interconnecting parts to be just thrown together quickly. This is a DELIBERATE act of treason! They all have to be brought to justice. NOW!
I remember that.

I doubt that any of them plan to go down by themselves. I just wish that 45 is one of the ones that gets caught in the quagmire.
Once you spot the crazed look in Flynn’s eyes, you know exactly the scenario you played out - or something close to it - is bound to happen! He won’t be able to handle not being part of the anti-everything I’m-the-only-one-who-knows-anything crowd. He and Trump are perfect together.
