SO GOOD! 🙂 Can’t wait!
PS…amk thinks I should pay him $100 for posting a good Tweet:) LOL….Sunday chuckles are good
Congratulations on being first, $100 seems a little steep. But the market has a way of setting the price on a particular product. I’m not saying that amk’s tweets aren’t valuable, they are, to us they are valuable.
amk is a businessman. All day, every day…but he’s family so we smile and love him and carry on:)
amk is a businessman. All day, every day
now, you take that back.
Surely you jest
I think all will be right with the world when I get to read this banter again. Brings back memories of better times.
Smile
This USED to worry me…but he does have a point!
But Mia Love only spoke up because she’s of Haitian descent. She has gone along with all the other nonsense that Republicans have put forward under Trump.
Mia Love and Tim Scott are cut from the same cloth, they go along to get along.
She hit it out of the ballpark with this one.
No just worried about demographic changes in the US. They are willing to do all kinds of horrendous things in the name of ethnic cleansing. At least what they are doing is being named. Its a beginning.
Idiot liar
the pos is just nutz.
So Trump is caught in yet another lie. He really is allergic to the truth.
Odd that he doesn’t know this. Does he not have advisors who can tell him when his tweets are factually incorrect? It’s almost as if he’s in a bubble where he’s kept from hearing about reality.
He did the same thing with Obamacare.
The shitheel can’t wait to claim that he’s destroyed another piece of Obama’s legacy, with which he’s obsessed.
Of course he’s clueless, but his base will eat it up.
He doesn’t care about regular American people so this is no surprise. He only tweets about matters where he feels he has a personal interest or in response to perceived slights. It’s all about him.
Personally, I’m much happier when he’s not thinking of us.
Chicken Soup for the soul!
OMG, I just want to cry.
I know. Same here. Miss so much of this.
I teared up. Lawd how I miss them.
As a Maryland voter, Manning certainly does not have my support. I’m surprised she’s even able to run. I hope Senator Cardin wins again in November. Whenever I’ve contacted him, he has promptly emailed me with a response.

I am completely infuriated at this bid for Senate.
I have *no* idea why PBO commuted her sentence (have seen tweets this week speculating that we’ve got more ammo against Julian Assange as a result), but this “candidacy” is just another Berniebro that our MSM will fill their broadcasts and publications with, and the voices of non-Berniebros (e.g., most Dem women) to STFU will be ignored.
Just another attempt by traitors to divide Americans as much as possible — which is bound to happen with so many House GOP incumbents not seeking reelection — in California alone, we’ve got DOZENs of Dems pitted against each other for current GOP House seats — MSM will have more ammo for their tried-and-true “Dems in disarray” narrative. 😦
I’ll see if I can find out how many Dems will be on our June primary ticket… Here’s one example:
In better news:
Love that last tweet predicting that Democrats will win 40 seats. YAY!!!! Let it be so.
Dems need to wake the fuck up and understand that they’re dealing with NAZIS / KKK.
That is Trump’s base. David Duke is connected with Russia - common white supremacist ground.
Steered by Putin’s manipulation and Stephen Miller’s influence, Trump is not interested in making good faith compromises.
NO BROWN OR BLACK PEOPLE - that is the Nazi goal.
Good Day, TODobots & friends!
Nice way to start my viewing day - thanks Ms NerdyW.
Also at this link that’s featured was this segment that is *nice* to highlight here (even though you likely have already seen it).
Always good to see the Fam, again and again.
So Senator Cotton and Senator Purdue was on tv lying this morning for Trump. They said that Trump didn’t say what it is being reported he said. And I don’t believe a word Cotton or Purdue said, they are disgusting racists liars like Trump.
Due to some logistical problems,I am not able to do this myself at this time. I would therefore appreciate it if someone here could locate and share tweet etc) the speech of our Forever-FLOTUS in which she warns us about the candidate for POTUS. You know the one about : being President doesn’t change who you are. Instead it reveals who you are. The campaign you run shows how you will govern. She gave a version of this speech a number of times. However, the version I am thinking about was during a campaign stop & happened after the Dem convention. Thanks information advance
Thanks a lot
Thanks a lot
she spake the truth. we are all seeing it today.
EXCLUSIVE PICTURES: Enjoying some Miami heat! Michelle Obama, 53, looks sensational in a white bikini and cut-off shorts as she and daughter Malia, 19, enjoy a winter weekend at the beach
The mother and daughter were spotted walking off the beach on Saturday before grabbing dinner at a trendy Miami steakhouse
The ladies made a rare appearance in swimsuits, with Michelle showing off her toned torso in a bikini top and Malia in a sweatshirt and black bikini bottoms
Sasha and Barack did not appear to be on the trip with the mother-daughter pair

Wow, That was very interesting.
Go, FLOTUS, Go, Go!
Malia looks awesome!
Thanks for sharing those photos.
I remember when MO said that you would not see her in a swimsuit and no photos of her in one surfaced when she was in the WH. Now, she is feeling free, looking beautiful with her rocking body (hello to my haters) hanging out on a Miami beach with her daughter, Valerie Jarrett, and others. I like how she is living her life as she wishes.
Right On to our Forever FLOTUS44.
Keep in mind that Republicans have enough votes in Congress to do whatever they want. If the government is shut down, it will be solely because Republicans can’t get their act together and vote as a block to get whatever they want passed when it comes to the budget. They don’t need Democrats to agree with their foolishness. Democrats should stand tough.
Yes, it does. With this, I must go off to work:)
Love that depiction of diverse Americans planting an American flag. Beautiful. That’s the America I know.
Maybe this false missile alert wasn’t a mistake, maybe it was a dry run to gauge our reaction.
Don I was wondering the same thing.
You know, I had the exact feelings about this false alarm in HI, Don.
HI is a Blue State. The Dastard Occupant in the WH is a Vengeful wicked #Dotard. Their spiteful games are to irk Blue States, Demoralize Liberals, Progressives and Hard & Far Lefties. Mostly, change the Sh*tholes Racist narrative.
Hello TOD on a Sunday Afternoon…..nearing PM Time now.
I was having a hard time sleeping through the night. When I got up at 2:47am today, it was -12F. Now, that’s MN in January.
My Eagles won…….Ugly win……but a win is indeed, a win. Go Eagles!
Congrats, DF on your solid Au ⭐ Furst 😉
❤ TOD community.
Thanks to {{{ ❤ Chips ❤ and ❤ Nerdy Wonka ❤ }}}
FLOTUS44 birthday is January 17th.
And she looks fabulous. So nice to see her out and about with the eldest daughter, Malia, in Miami. My forever FLOTUS and First Daughter.
Go Jaguars! 45-42 against the Steelers, in the bitter cold on their home field.
AFC championship title against the Patriots next week.
My city was almost like a ghost town from 1:00 until about now.
Now, That hurts. Jaguars beating one of my teams.
OK, Eagles is the Only Team of mine left.
Interesting Question
Great question but I have no doubt that the good people of Maryland will do the right thing and vote for Cardin. We’re not fools.
I don’t recall him ever trying to hide his racism. If you read “Daily Caller” which he had a big part in running, you’ll remember how they supported George Zimmerman. He’s always been a bigot and an idiot. Just another White man born with a golden spoon in his mouth who has no empathy for people who haven’t had it has good as he has.
Well put, Rep Kennedy. Perhaps he should consider running in 2020.
I was just thinking that
Bottom line ….
WOW>>>>>>>>>
Donald Jr. and Eric were paling around with Russians to get their money.
Well… they spent part of their time in shithole countries doing what is called “African trophy hunting”. Tough guys. I’m sure they inherited their pops bone spurs too. Sad…
stop what you are doing. watch this. maybe 20 times. this is how we are going to win in every single corner. i cannot stress how important this is. the end is incredible. no skipping ahead!
Awesomeness!
That is totally awesome.
That is powerful!
This is a wonderful way to shake off the anger and angst- something I can do late at night, or any time I need something positive to put my mind and hands to. This organization only does outreach to Democrats, in races where the Dem candidate has requested this service. Though we do purchase our own stamps, you can use any card stock you have, if it’s cut to the right size. Check out the posts on Postcards to Voters FB page to get a glimpse of the action 🙂
there is a FB group called Postcards to Voters…i ordered my postcards from them…which included stamps…it was very reasonable
Woot! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Goodnight TOD & here’s a classic ….
corrupt nut n yahoo visiting our place and our own rwnj ‘clean’ pm is drooling all over him. uugghh.
UGH!
Oh boy.
LOL. Good one.
Brilliant!
Love the painting. Good one.
THREAD
Ever since Trump’s comments about Haiti and Africa and South America countries being shitholes, I’ve been unable to put into words my thoughts about his comments. I’m at a loss for words, I can’t find the words to explain how I feel about this. Maybe it’s because Trump has gone so low that I can’t even finds the words to describe his actions. I’m not numb to Trump, and that is a good thing. Because when you become numb to something it doesn’t affect you and you become used to it, you normalize it. I will never become used to Trump nor will I ever normalize what he does or say.
There is simply no bottom for PP.
I would like to think that by ignoring his tweets and comments etc - (which I feel is all done to distract from other issues) the oxygen to his ego can be cut off. It’s just a thought, I don’t know if it will work. I am sick and tired of MSM talking about him.
I rather continue reading or hearing about community efforts to turn this around … ensuring everyone who is eligle to vote have all the required documents ready. Purged names are reinstated etc etc.
PP is a p*g. Not worth giving any attn other than if it’s impeachment related.
Reading that thread I posted just above yours helped me articulate the devastation of it, the great harm and its rippling effect. But I find myself continually shocked and horrified every day. I know people say we shouldn’t be shocked, but I don’t ever want to feel like what he’s doing is routine. That his daily horror show is just business as usual. I’m just completely grossed out every single day.
I keep wondering if there is any line Trump will cross that would be a real blow to him. I guess I’m always searching, consciously and unconsciously, for a way out.
He’s manipulated people into worshipping him and having no boundaries with the sick proclamation that he can shoot someone on 5th Ave and not lose any supporters. I wonder if it was discovered that he paid for an abortion, if that would make a difference. Probably not.
Probably not.
I sometimes think that some Americans who spend their time watching reality tv shows … are treating PP’s administration as a reality show. Their ability to think critically somehow got lost.
Yes, the crazier the better.
My own thought is that the media and its white males, largely, buffets him. They routinely say they don’t know how to cover him. Never mind these same guys looked under fake bushes, croaked roads, to find a Katrina to hang around President Obama’s neck. They breathlessly wave Hillary away, and have virtually silenced her. They make silly excuses for him. Look right now how they are covering his racist comments. All of a sudden, it is becoming a he say, she say, opting to cast Dubin in poor light, by saying now with Perdue and Cotton giving their own version, it is partisan. To my mind, in addition to the woeful GOP covering for him, media’s decision to give him any breaks they can is why he survives. But every dog has its day. It might take this long, but his day will come.
pity the treasonous thugs party doesn’t have people like hagel any more.
Happy Martin Luther King Day TOD.

The false alarm in Hawaii revealed an abdication of leadership by Trump.

Don’t you love how Senator Flake is critical of Trump but votes to support his agenda? It’s mind boggling.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/powerpost/wp/2018/01/14/in-planned-speech-jeff-flake-compares-trumps-media-attacks-to-stalin/?tid=pm_politics_pop&utm_term=.238732d93300
Yes. You get what you VOTE FOR, Senator!
I don’t know why Flake keeps making these proclamations when we can easily show that he does NOTHING legislatively to counteract the damage that Trump is doing to the country.
He has no credibility.
i wonder what will happen….this is as serious plain talking as has been said…..
So, apparently Pence was in attendance here at this church, although he’s not seen in the video. Hmmm
Didn’t ‘Damien: The Omen’ also grew red-faced and got upset when he was in the car and his parents were taking him to church?
I remember that so clearly, Don. Damien never set foot inside the church, which is what he wanted. Slippery Pence is dressed in sheep’s clothing to sit amongst us.
“I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: “We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal.” #MLK
Today more than ever let us commit ourselves to the dream of Dr. Martin Luther King that we should live out the meaning of the American creed in our Declaration of Independence. This is especially true when we have a Nazi in the white house who believes in an alien creed of Aryan white supremacy, and when the Republican Party has changed from being the party of Lincoln to the party of Nazi Trump and have renounced our American creed in the Declaration of Independence.
Let us celebrate our unity and equality as God’s children especially today. From Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.s speech at the Lincoln Memorial I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: “We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal.”
hear, hear, Bill.
When alll of God’s Children…Free at Last…Free At Last…Thank God Almighty, I’m Free at Last!
Back in the day, which was when President Obama was in office, every head of state would seek an audience with President Obama. Except Russia of course. Now it seems as though every head of state isn’t interested in the least in seeking an audience with Trump, except Russia of course.
We have to save ourselves. The Senate, too please
I don’t trust all these republican strategists saying they are pessimistic about the 2018 midterm elections. It will encourage all republicans to come out and vote, while it might make some democratic voters complacent and stay home. We need our voters to come out and vote. Too many people don’t come out to vote for the midterm elections.
yup, if 2016 didn’t slap some sense into the dem voters, nothing ever will.
Hmmmmm
Paul Ryan is a shithole.
Good morning, TOD!
Happy Martin Luther King Day!
Wonderful thread:
