🙂 Blessed Monday, everyone!
🖖🏼📿👁👁🌟
Now, now, MP staring is not allowed (just because I’ve got a week off). 😉 😀 Sending you wishes for a quiet Monday, however.
Just keeping an 👁 out for all o’ y’all 🌏💕
😀 😀 FTR I’m behaving, though I can’t speak for anyone else.
Happy Monday 👑
Happy Monday, TOD family. I miss the Obamas.
Hi, 57F, it’s been a while since I’ve run into you. Hope you and yours are doing well.
.

This reminds me that I also haven’t seen Arapaho around either. Hmmm.
It’s been a tough year. Mr. 57 is now six weeks out from knee replacement surgery. It’s been tough. I found out that I have a severe tear in the cartilage in my hip and a fracture that has cause constant, searing pain for almost a year. Taking care of Mr. 57 was a challenge but he’s getting better by the day. I’ve missed you all so much. Hope all is well with you!
Good to hear both you and Mr 57 are taking care of yourselves and are making gradual improvement. Hang tough! Yes, all is going well in my corner and I am thankful.
Hi 57 and female, good to see you. So sorry you and your husband have been having health issues and were in pain. Glad you husband is improving.
He’s doing pretty great for 78 years old! I wish I was doing as well at 68 years old. My Job From Hell with a Trump wannabe boss was awful as the museum I’ve been doing research for finally opened. 8-10 days straight working with no break. But I’ve cut back to part time (always my plan when the museum opened) and after the dust settles, I’m hoping to get back to doing things I love. It was the work schedule and of course the depression/anger/horror of DT that kept me from participating with my TOPD family, but I lurked as often as I could. Feels so great to be back with such wonderful, inspirational friends. Hope all it well with you.
Yes everything is well from me. I took a break myself for about 5 months starting in August due to anxiety/depression.
Love to you.
Same to you!
((((( 57af and hubby )))))
❤️🙏🏻🕯
good to see you 57….wishing you the best…
Hello 57! Good to hear from you and to know Mr 57 is on the mend. Now it’s your turn to slow down and regroup. 😘
Love to you…
To turning that corner and going in good directions, both of you!
Monday, Monday…..yup.
Congrats, VC on your Golden ⭐ Furst becomes You, Lady 😉
Thanks, NW! You Rock!
Gracias, amiga.
Forever FLOTUS telling truth
rikyrah, Yes she is.
Happy Monday to you all. I had the stomach flu this past weekend, 2 days in bed and slept when I wasn’t being sick so it’s good to be on here to catch up. Feeling depressed except when I watched Maxine’s speech yesterday. That lifted me up.
Hi Betsy! So sorry you were sick 😦
Hope you are feeling better.
PM of England said that Trump’s buddy is responsible for the poisoning of the former Russia spy and his daughter. The fellow Trump said was a better leader then Obama, the fellow who Trump refuse to say a negative word about, the fellow who help Trump steal the 2016 election.
Duplication when it is President Barack Obama, Please TOD pardon me 😉 . I should have refreshed before eagerly posting for TODbots are always on top of everything The Obamas 😉
Twice the LOVE!!
The last time anything good coming out of the WH was during PBO & Michelle Obama’s time there. Today is all about corruption, scandals, crime, bad language, and evil doings by evil doers every day.
No Shame on you Sen. Feinstein. for thinking Trump would ever do what is right. Shame on you.
exactly, she made a spectacle of herself acting gleeful when he’s lied to her and Schumer on DACA why would this be any different. Wonder if DiFi will get fooled a 3rd time?
Feinstein has been around the block more than a few times…she knew that it was a long shot with Trump
Like our PM – they all keep thinking he is a “normal” politician who will do the right thing, keep his promises. Maybe it is just faint hope – but ANYONE who has watched the past 2 years should know he does what is good for trump – nothing more & nothing less.
Our man in charge is saying he won’t join with others to protest the steel tariffs because we are going to be exempt – the reckoning will come – sooner rather than later.
I am a Californian and I actually like Senator Feinstein. She is a solid democrat, and doesn’t suffer fools gladly. She wrote the original assault weapons ban. She saw her friends in San Francisco shot and killed. She is an older politician, and I do think she holds out for the better angels to appear in others. I see so many Dems calling out Bernie for wanting “progressive purity” in our party, I cannot stand Bernie. Now I see so many calling out Senator Feinstein, …she got Trump to say out loud, on tape for all to see/hear what he wanted to happen regarding gun measures. He has no moral compass, and it it proven time and time again She is not naive. She is a solid solider in our party, it saddens me to see people here dissing her.
At least she’s addressing the issue. Where are all the other Democrats? Where are the men? Why aren’t they also making lots of noise. Passion is important. Listen to those Parkland young people, they’re not afraid. Shame on the NRA too.
Saw this and thought about our Amk and his pugs.
No Dudette, it’s not just you. It’s obvious that this POTUS is in the pockets of Russia. He’s doing exactly what Putin’s Puppet would do. Notice that he has time to condemn and criticize our free press and politicians who criticize him but has NEVER criticized Putin. Not even once.
I think Patrick was being sarcastic.
Trump is totally a Putin puppet.
And thanks to Fox News, his deplorables live in an alternate reality where they THANK Russia for making him president, and are frighteningly clueless about embracing the murderous Putin.
I am now absolutely convinced that Putin has devastating “Komplomat” on Trump.
😁 I know it’s not just me. I forget sometimes people don’t always recognize snark.
Dudette, I think you are being overly kind to Trump. Trump is deathly afraid of Putin.
Do y’all seriously think I give that fool the benefit of the doubt? I was being snarky. Guess I shoulda just been more overt.
It may be safe to assume The Hague is gearing up for the trials ahead….
Spring is here!!!
Hello VC

Sigh! The above is what I got from copying your emoji’s address. I wanted to get the emoji with the blush. Ay-yi-yi.
You get an “A+” for effort. 😘
😀 😀 😀 Thanks; my emojis don’t seem to blush. Must be the seriousness of us northern 😉 folk
Ha!
JHC
That committee lost it’s credibility long time ago. Nunes tainted that committee. At this point, only Mueller has credibility.
Do these GOP Trump-idiots think anyone believe anything they have to say. Anything dealing with the House is alot of B.S. I don’t trust these Republicans at all.
And …. that was as expected. THe GOP will live to regret what they have done – the only thing that will keep the USA a democracy.
How is it we have ‘lost’ an hour (as in ripped off), yet the day seems longer than many I remember? (does that make sense…?) 🤔
What the flying fuck. THIS is who the orange Mussolini protects!
I’m sure Trump is proud of his buddy Putin.
The Republicans, from Trump on down, are traitors!
they do not believe in democracy…they use the institutions of democracy…like the vote and courts to gather power and push their ideology of white supremacy…this is why i have a hard time understanding how any person of color could be a Republican or vote for a Republican….white folks can’t see pass their own privilege …that is why they continue to vote for Republicans or 3rd party
OMG
Holy shit
Everyone needs to watch Rachel tonight. We all know that something happened to America but finding out the details that are coming out is so scary
David Nunes = Benedict Arnold 2.0 . The Russians are coming and the GOP stands by, waving white flags. TRAITORS the lot of them.
ICYMI
THIS THIS THIS
Putin seems to be having everything all his way since the ending of 2016. Sigh. It’s like he’s making a fool of the west because we have certain standards and he doesn’t. His behaviour strikes me as very similar to the GOPs – they fight dirty, have no morals, and take victory any which way they can, while the Dems follow standards because they believe in having some integrity. How do you win when you follow all the rules and your opponent constantly tramples over them? IMO that creates a battlefield that is virtually unconquerable. Putin has launched war against the west and is gaining advantages while we are debating. How is Putin going to be stopped if our leaders cannot even admit that we have been, and are being, attacked? I can’t see US getting back on its international feet anytime soon.
The Russians are really bold. Nerve agent attack in a British city … I suppose aided by P.P … Putin can’t help but feel emboldened.
When are Republicans going to proudly display their Russian flags / pins?
The Deplorables who voted for the P-grabber should truly be ashamed. Who flip-flops with their votes? Trump country PA18 now supporting Lamb? Where were these a-holes in the last election?
I welcome people who voted for Trump, but are now voting to send a Democrat to Congress to replace a Republican. We obviously can’t undo what happened in the last election. Right now our focus should be on ensuring that Democrats regain the majority in Congress to be able to check Trump.
No doubt it’s better to have these ppl vote for a Democrat. But the predicament we are in wouldn’t exist if it wasn’t for Trump voters or lack of HRC voters.
Once again we discover that these voters are NOT the true base of the Democratic Party….their vote is NOT reliable,,,however the Obama Coalition…is….the DEMs do not want to acknowledge this.
Morning everyone…Happy Voting Day in PA 18!!! GO VOTE! Do it now and bring a friend, or 5.
I guess Tillerson contradicted him one time too many.
Is the pact between Tillerson, Mattis, and McMaster (or was it Kelley) still in play … if one goes, they all go???
What horrid people. Vile people they are.
What a slimey creature his guy is
Welcome to the Trump administration, Mr. Schwab. The corruption and lies are nonstop!
Add this to the mix. Do you feel safe?

But will these same Republicans who would distance themselves from 45 on the campaign trail call him out on all his impeachable offenses? Will they stand up to Ryan/McConnell and tell them to do their jobs?
This all feels like shuffling the deck chairs on the Titanic. This man and his treasonous crew are going down….
Dickless. But we knew that
The Secretary of Exxon got his $71 million dollar tax break, didn’t he?
So, he’s cool.

hmmmmmmmmmmmm
Another long-time Trump aide is out: John McEntee, an original Trumper among w Hope Hicks and Dan Scavino, was escorted out of the White House on Monday https://t.co/haIhsITOxp— Michael C. Bender (@MichaelCBender) March 13, 2018
More about this firing:
Yet, he is good enough to work on the 2020 re-election campaign…..talk about a job that won’t exist. Hope he updated his resume and removed the WH job…..
Shoulda listened the first time!
Coward
Yes!
thanks…
I stand by what I am about to say, the problem isn’t just Trump it’s those who voted that fucking moron in office.
Those Republicans on Capital Hill is to blame too, they know Trump is not qualified to be President, but to them it is all about power.
He picks the “best” people. Dangerous disgrace
There’s that. Doesn’t seem like “thinking things through” is a strong suit. Hell, THINKING doesn’t seem to be a suit at all!
New post.
