Just spotted this on Facebook and thought I’d share for a laugh.
My youngest teenage granddaughter in Florida has a couple little half-sisters and their Mom shared a little fun quiz she gave them … along with their answers. Keeping in mind my grandma name is “GG,” here was the last Q&A, which made me LOL. #TheyKnowMe
Q: How much do you love me?
A: “A lot” “to the moon & back” “more than the whole universe” “more than GG loves Obama”

Senator Blumenthal who correctly predicted the 4 indictments in the Russia Probe last year (a month before they happened) just predicted that there will be more “indictments early in the new year.” 🔥🔥🔥

What Trump @HouseGOP @SenateGOP are doing to this country, knowingly and forcefully, has gone beyond troubling and disturbing and whatever euphemisms emanate from our politicians. It's abuse and it's completely PSYCHO.
And all the Republicans in both houses are aiding and abetting the Russians. That needs to be understood by all. They are ALL complicit in this mess.
A year ago today, 17 agencies of Intelligence Community concluded that Russia ordered an "influence campaign" during the 2016 election w/"a clear preference" for Donald Trump.
Given this year in our democracy, Russia was more than successful.
We haven't even put up a fight.

Remember how, for eight years, we had relatively controversy free, intelligent, ethical government leaders who, at least appeared to have trustworthy integrity? A time with no indictments, no instability due to a twitter rant, and with eloquent, uplifting messages? It was good.
But this country had too many who didn’t appreciate that fact, who whined about everything the Obama administration did or didn’t do.
And then there were the die-hard racists who flung shit at every turn.
Now the whiners are learning the hard way, and the die-hard racists must blind themselves to reality to stand proudly by this degenerate occupying the WH.

NEVER UNDERESTIMATE TRUMP. I've said this from the day @realDonaldTrump came down that escalator and everyone was mocking him. I worry that the ridicule, the claims he's "lost it," the sense he's engulfed in chaos, obscure his uncanny ability to shape reality to his own liking.

The American Civil Liberties Union, rarely an active player in national campaigns, is jumping into the 2018 midterms with plans to spend upward of $25 million promoting ballot initiatives and issues in contested races across the country.
Soaring after a banner year — the ACLU raised $93 million online in the 12 months after Donald Trump was elected president, up from $5.5 million the year before, and its membership quadrupled to 1.6 million — the civil rights group is in the midst of a dramatic makeover. The group aims to rival the National Rifle Association as a force on the left and become a hub of the anti-Trump movement.
“It’s clear that a larger portion of the American public is deeply engaged in politics in a way they’ve never been before,” said Executive Director Anthony Romero — and the ACLU aims to be a hub of liberal political activism.
This is just like the time @BarackObama got so mad about people calling him a double-secret Kenyan terrorist that he went and ate a whole bag of almonds and read another book on Niebuhr

When Tammy was nine years old, she was diagnosed with a serious childhood illness similar to spinal meningitis. She was hospitalized for three months. Her grandparents had health insurance. But they learned during her illness that their family policy did not cover grandchildren.

They were faced w the struggle of having to pay out-of-pocket for her hospitalization & f-up care. Their struggle didn’t end when Tammy recovered. Since she was labeled as a child w a “preexisting medical condition,”
it was nearly impossible for her grandparents to find her any insurance, at any price. Later in life, this experience would inform Tammy’s work to secure quality healthcare for all and shape her support for the Affordable Care Act. pic.twitter.com/DuPcNefL3L
