Congratulations, DF and thanks Nerdy for featuring Meta’s perfect tweets! Girding for battle today and trying toi reach someone in Wyden’s office to discuss Michael Ellis, one of the leakers who gave intel to Nunes.
Good morning Ms. Chips, Danny and TOD family, I hope all is well with everyone this lovely Friday morning. TGIF>> Congrats df, on being first this morning.
Nerdy, thanks so much for helping Ms. Chips and for the sacrifices you’re making for us TOD’ers. 💫🙏👌👊❤
To all, I hope when you pull back the curtains, raise the shades, and open the door; happiness and good-humor rushes into your life today. ❤ ❤ ❤
I am thankful to God that I lived to witness one of the greatest President of The United States of America in President Barack Hussein Obama ⭐🏆 ⭐🏆 ⭐🏆
REP. JOHN LEWIS TALKS TO TIME ABOUT BEING A LEADER OF A NEW RESISTANCE
I was very, very pleased that the core of what President Obama attempted to do was still very much alive. Together we can fix and strengthen the Affordable Care Act. We invested so much, and it’s been so good for so many people. …
…Well, I still believe there was a deliberate, systematic effort to subvert the political process, and I think it was a foreign power — the Russians — involved… I strongly feel that we need an independent commission to find out what happened and how it happened, so it will never happen again.

THE RACHEL MADDOW SHOW 3/30/17 Trump scandals risk inuring Americans to government corruption
Rachel Maddow reviews a list of less reported but no less outrageous current Trump administration scandals and notes that beyond the big Trump Russia scandal, Americans have to retain their ability to be shocked by corruption
THE RACHEL MADDOW SHOW 3/30/17 Trump actions boosted Russian effectiveness
Rachel Maddow shares video of testimony by Clinton Watts, former FBI special agent, at today’s Senate Intelligence Committee hearing in which Watts explains how Russian fake news operations were made more effective because Donald Trump cited those stories.

“In case anyone doubts the authenticity of the Obama speech, the binder was grabbed by a construction worker who helped build the stage and podium; as his crew disassembled the stage, the worker offered the binder to Secret Service agents, but they allowed him to keep it. Goldin Auctions is including the worker’s DNC badge along with the speech. The worker gave the binder to his daughter and son-in-law, who were big Obama supporters, as a gift, so they are the owners.”
It takes a certain kind of mind to look at these trends and conclude that tax cuts for the top 1% are an urgent national priority. pic.twitter.com/6s9Jwr0a8w
I thought of that, too. They have to “play” a little, whenever it doesn’t hurt the final vote, to keep their seats in their states. (Not that I trust Manchin at all, but he has done this in the past.)

Whatever information he tried to peddle to the FBI and the DOJ, it is obvious that they already know it and more and do not need to make a deal with Flynn. Sometimes life comes at you hard. So many things that republicans have done over the years to steal and retain power are being used against them. The beauty of so much of this is that their arrogance brought this to this point; their own words and actions are being used against them. I now believe that justice will be done and we will not have to wait years for this to happen.
Pete is at it again. This, of course, is in response to the news that 45 will not be throwing out the first pitch of the season. Pete’s shade is impeccable as always. Lard-ass knows that he would look ridiculous because he is incapable of doing anything more physical than lifting KFC to his mouth.
OBAMA OFFICIALS MADE LIST OF RUSSIA PROBE DOCUMENTS TO KEEP THEM SAFE
Obama administration officials were so concerned about what would happen to key classified documents related to the Russia probe once 45 took office that they created a list of document serial numbers to give to senior members of the Senate Intelligence Committee, a former Obama official told NBC News. …
For some strange reason every time I hear a politician bring up the constitution it always makes me think that they are basically looking for a way to legally fuck somebody up.
I think the reason General Flynn went public about asking for immunity is that I think privately his offer was turned down by the FBI and some members of the Senate Intelligence Committee. I think Flynn is dying to tell what he knows, he knows that they have him by the short hairs.
@TrueFactsStated For those who don't normally pray, pray. For those who pray, pray harder. If you want to just wish for this, wish big. LET'S MAKE IT HAPPEN!
@DomesticBoriqua@dcexaminer@emilyjashinsky Miss me w that "no salary" bs, Ivanka is profiting massively off the presidency just like daddy. And no salary = no accountability
The public should learn a lot more about WHY General Flynn wants immunity when Sally Yates testifies before the House Intelligence Committee https://t.co/F6mjRbjUby

This is DEVASTATING. @MajorCBS asks if Trump is suggesting Flynn be granted immunuty. Spicer: "I'm not entirely sure what the process is…" pic.twitter.com/AhieoH6PGV
Hillary is not, nor has she ever been POTUS, so this is assertion serves no purpose for the question under consideration. They demonized her enough to win and are still invoking her name to somehow cover their own real wrongdoing. Weak and stupid mofos.
Dear Spicey,
May I suggest you bone up on ‘what the process is…’ because one day soon, you will find yourself needing to know. And then it will be too late for you. Yes, you– also Flynn, DT, all the Ts, Pence. In fact, you might want to start circulating your resume. Pronto.
All the best,
America
Easy for him to do since he neither wrote them or read them. Pence is acting like the errand boy for now, but I would not be surprised to learn that he is behind many of the leaks. Pence took this ridiculous step in a not-ready-for-prime-time administration because it is bringing him closer to his ultimate ambition. When 45 goes down his entire cabinet and staff must go down with him.
Josh is so articulate. He will make everyone else including the woman interviewing him appear less informed, less well spoken, and generally less capable.
Nerdy: thanks for all your work in keeping this essential community going. Have you thought about removing Whitehouse.gov from the sidebar? Don’t think many here want to look at the garbage from the Trump administration. Not my president.

Thank you for featuring my tweets honoring PBO & admin, NW. Thank goodness we have their example to hold up in these dark hours.
They spoke the truth.
WHOA!! Watch the video at the link.
Shouldn’t this be going in President Obama library?
They talk about that in the video.
Here is the provenance:
“In case anyone doubts the authenticity of the Obama speech, the binder was grabbed by a construction worker who helped build the stage and podium; as his crew disassembled the stage, the worker offered the binder to Secret Service agents, but they allowed him to keep it. Goldin Auctions is including the worker’s DNC badge along with the speech. The worker gave the binder to his daughter and son-in-law, who were big Obama supporters, as a gift, so they are the owners.”
THIS MUST BE IN HIS LIBRARY!..PERIOD!
I just love to hear his voice.
I adore this photo:)
My absolute favorite of them all❤
Me too. I’m absolutely in love with this picture.

Forward thinking as always!
The steps that President Obama’s administration took to keep all documents safe that are related to Trump/Russia reads like a spy novel.
For some strange reason every time I hear a politician bring up the constitution it always makes me think that they are basically looking for a way to legally fuck somebody up.
I think the reason General Flynn went public about asking for immunity is that I think privately his offer was turned down by the FBI and some members of the Senate Intelligence Committee. I think Flynn is dying to tell what he knows, he knows that they have him by the short hairs.
Done.
Interesting POV and article
Trump Is Right: Give Michael Flynn Immunity
Hello TOD 😉
TGIF 🙂
❤ ❤ ❤ TODable TODbots.
Hillary is not, nor has she ever been POTUS, so this is assertion serves no purpose for the question under consideration. They demonized her enough to win and are still invoking her name to somehow cover their own real wrongdoing. Weak and stupid mofos.
Dear Spicey,

All the best,
America
Just Because…… 😉
But Fedex is Next to beat 😦
A Nuke Here, a Nuke There……..who is counting and what does it matter? Only LIFE as We Know it, that’s all.
Along with nutcase Trump, a very scary world:
It is so aparent that the US was a stabilizer in the world. The world is going Mad
Lazy azz
Easy for him to do since he neither wrote them or read them. Pence is acting like the errand boy for now, but I would not be surprised to learn that he is behind many of the leaks. Pence took this ridiculous step in a not-ready-for-prime-time administration because it is bringing him closer to his ultimate ambition.

Josh “the voice” Earnest
Josh is so articulate. He will make everyone else including the woman interviewing him appear less informed, less well spoken, and generally less capable.
Okay, I did my part. Off for a siesta!
Nerdy: thanks for all your work in keeping this essential community going. Have you thought about removing Whitehouse.gov from the sidebar? Don’t think many here want to look at the garbage from the Trump administration. Not my president.
I pray that there is mad organizin going on …
Me, too. I hope we can pick up at least of couple of these……….
meta if we cannot translate all that activism into votes….we all need to just go home and sit down
Please correct Montana’s is May 25. You can follow our candidate at @robquistformt ot robquistformontana.com. We also have a chance to add a Dem to the House.
Thanks so much for the correction, mtmarilyn.
Loving his comment…shows that he understands what is going on with all this activism
