LONDON — Qatar restored full diplomatic relations with Iran on Thursday, the latest volley in an 11-week-old geopolitical feud that has set the tiny yet fabulously wealthy Persian Gulf nation against its neighbors and rattled a previously placid part of the Middle East.
Hoping that Rep Waters’ courage and strength is contagious and that other Democrats speak out fearlessly like she has been doing since Trump’s election.
Good afternoon Ms. Chips, Danny and TOD family, I hope all is well with everyone this lovely Thursday afternoon. Congrats rikyrah, on being first this afternoon.
Nerdy, thanks so much for helping Ms. Chips and for the sacrifices you’re making for us TOD’ers. 💫🙏👌👊❤
To all, I hope you have an enjoyable, entertaining, and pleasurable day 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 ⭐🏆 ⭐🏆 ⭐🏆
To all trans men and women serving bravely in the military: I plan to introduce legislation to fight back. We'll keep raising our voices. https://t.co/kvKLXe1aN4

HUMAN VARIATION is VAST. It’s not Marilyn Munroe…or…Bronko Nagurski. Everything’s in between.
Time for the military to say No, No, No.
Personally I cannot offer to lay down my life in the same way all troops do. Pence should sign up so he can get turned down.
Congress woman Waters I take a bow to you I commend you I admire your strength I’m proud of you you make us proud. Thank you ms Water and congratulations 🎉🎈you are truly working for the people. Thank you again and God bless you real good 😊 ❤️👍🎉🎈✅
Great Afternoon To All TODbots across the Globe.

DREAM TEAM Inside Robert Mueller’s Army
To probe alleged Russian interference in the 2016 election, the special counsel has essentially built his own miniature Justice Department. Meet the experts he’s recruited.

In a secure location in southwest Washington, D.C., with access to a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility for classified material, 16 of the country’s top lawyers have passed the last several months working on an investigation that will likely be as consequential as it is secretive.
The following details—gleaned from conversations with people familiar with President Donald Trump’s legal team, as well as intelligence experts and friends of the people working for special counsel Robert Mueller—help explain the broad range of legal and counterintelligence experts he’s assembled. Mueller has essentially built his own miniature Justice Department.
–grandfather died of black lung though we called it siliconiosis. He’d have jumped for joy if there’d been an option to the brutal life
he and his sons led. Solar tops on every new roof!!! Please. Green Re-training for every wretch coal mining family in the land.
My grandfather was sent into the coal mines in Western Pennsylvania in 1896, when he was 11 years old, to help support his family. He was able to make sure his sons never went. He did not have black lung, but died with other conditions that no doubt started in the coal mines. God bless your grandfather, his sons, and all the others in and out of that occupation today … who – I agree – should never have to return to the mines.
“We cut the coal … ” — from Winston Churchill’s address to a conference of coal-mine operators and miners, 1942, on the importance of their work during WWII
Is this “deplorable” scum threatening the assassination of members of Congress who are trying to carry out their Constittional responsibilities? As far as I am concerned, Roger Stone is advocating/encouraging terrorism! He needs to be treated the same way advocates of terrorism are treated!
I’m sure he is being treated as a terrorist/Russian agent. He doesn’t realize that those who follow him, feed on his violent rhetoric are being tracked by Homeland Security and the FBI and probably intel agencies. That’s why I referred to him as the cheese.
There's NO reason for a transgender ban. Military isn't asking for it. Americans don't want it. This is about Trump embrace of hate. Period. https://t.co/OwX3QEgXHV
Very cool, but it will never happen. Michelle means what she says and folks need to believe her. She more than deserves the life she has now and in many ways she can be more influential by not holding a public office.
For me, it’s just simply more about recognizing the power of Michelle Obama rather than pressuring her to run for office. It stands on its own as a recognition of of she’s done and how much she is loved.
Yup. I am grateful that she is still remaining public and doing good works. My greatest fear was losing touch with both FLOTUS and President Obama. They can be like the lighthouse in a storm.
Speaking of eyeglasses, I saw a posting right after the eclipse that Astronomers without Borders are asking people to save their eclipse glasses to send them as they will be donating them to needy schools and places in South America and Asia for a future eclipse. They said to be watching for the address to send them to at a later time. They did say if you could not wait you could send them now to:

Hey Bella,
Thank you. I think we need to tweet the Secret Service every time this happens because for me this is a matter of her security. This should not happen. Students should be disciplined for sharing pics of her because it jeopardizes her safety. That’s my main issue – her safety.
Secret Service protection Coverage is limited for the Children after 6 months out of office unless it was requested & then approved for additional months of coverage by the next POTUS. VPs generally have 6 months protection after office. The Dick Cheney requested for additional 6 months coverage of which Pres Obama OK’ed for the Dick. Pres Obama & his wife would have SS protection for life. Bill Clinton signed a law that terminated Lifetime coverage protection…….starting with GWBush. After 9/11, it was changed back to almost how it used to be. The law kept the salary increase. With Clinton, it was annually at $200K or $250K. Starting with GWB, it became $400K.
Thanks for all you do, for keeping us well-fed and nourished. 🙂
Everything I see about #HurricaneHarvey looks ominous for south Texas and Louisiana — I know that Austin is hundreds of miles from the Gulf Coast, but it looks like you may be in for (another) deluge of rain 😦 .

Via Meta, IMHO, the best take on FUBAR’s idiot RT, with a special dig at FUBAR’s self-consciousness about his #tinyhands.

A quick CJR piece from me: Journalists' time is better spent doing good reporting — not publicly licking our wounds when Trump insults us. https://t.co/7mLhwO4BFg
Far-right activists are using fake Twitter accounts and images of battered women to smear anti-fascist groups in the US, an online investigation has revealed.
The online campaign is using fake Antifa (an umbrella term for anti-fascist protestors) Twitter accounts to claim anti-fascists promote physically abusing women who support US President Donald Trump or white supremacy.
Researcher Eliot Higgins of website Bellingcat found evidence that the campaign is being orchestrated on internet messageboard 4Chan by far-right sympathisers.
One image shows the slogan “53% of white women voted for Trump, 53% of white women should look like this”, above a photograph of a woman with a bruised and cut face and an anti-fascist symbol.
The woman pictured is actually British actress Anna Friel and the photograph was taken for a Women’s Aid anti-domestic violence campaign in 2007.

I know that if this is to happen, then it may still be a looong time coming. But, should there be any chance that the homegrown demagogue is indicted or resigns, I don’t want to miss more than 1 minute. So could you someone sign me up on an alert for this moment
.@MichelleObama is everything this site will never be-honorable, brave, beloved, beautiful. Don't need to watch an awful video to know that. https://t.co/0L8tyUiw0k
Thank you jacquelineoboomer for doing that and I appreciate Chelsea. Michelle Obama is out of the White House and these crazy racists bigots still won’t leave her alone. .
Nice to see you around, amk, although I am ready for dreamland at the moment! Goodnight, TODville, and all the ships at sea (and those on “pause in operations”)!
one of the reasons why the homegrown demagogue has been blatantly lying about his reaction to Charlottesville is not because he has a conscience.
rather, the venom and denials is mainly because he is loosing money as more organizations disassociate themselves from having a business relationship with him.
money, power, and attention are among the things he treasures most … there is a hollow or dark mass where a heart ought to be
I agree that if it were not affecting his pocket, he would have given the “somber”, “serious???” speeches.
The problem for him is that he is not taking responsibility for his words and (in)action. He’s not even saying he was wrong. Instead, he is blaming others. For that reason — and others — his lack of sincerity shines through whenever he attempts to explain away Charlottesville.
Amazon slashing prices at Whole Foods … where will the likes of Louise Linton and her rich friends shop now???? 😅
Surely she won’t be caught shopping with the peasants … 😨. Oh nooooo. LOL LOL.
Have a lovely day everyone.
Thank you NW. For keeping the lights on at TOD … and everyone else for keeping this community alive ☺
Today on the other side of the oceans and mountains, today a guru was found guilty of raping many women, after ten years of multiple court hearings. And thousands of his women ‘followers’ turned out at the court to block him from getting into the court for the verdict. And his goons have so far turned two states into a war zone.
Amazing how many are ready to defend the scoundrels …. victims don’t matter to these defenders & neither does the explicit exploitation of the core values they claim to profess…..
It’s absolutely mind-blowing how much of a horrendous transgression this is. So many layers of corruption and malfeasance. Trump MUST pay for some or hopefully ALL of it.
One silver lining is govt seized all his ill-gotten wealth (think evangelicals level) today and the high court just now made him personally responsible for all the damages his goons caused.
Instead the concern that I have is for urgent but not life threatening emergency care. If an evacuee has an asthma attack and needs to go to an urgent care, that clinic might not be in network although every in-network clinic could be under water. If someone is having a significant anxiety flare-up and needs to talk with a mental health professional and there are no in-network mental health professionals within 100 miles that is currently open, that is a problem. If someone has a tumor where the current course of guideline concordant care is watchful waiting and needs an advanced scan to continue the watchful waiting, the nearest available in-network scanner might be seven counties away.
These are the tough cases of narrow networks in a major, prolonged evacuation. Most people in a short term evacuation will be able to defer their care needs without significant harm. But there are a class of cases which are urgent and should not be deferred but will not qualify as standard emergency care. These are the problems.
If you are in this class of people, the first thing to do is call your insurance company and try to get a pre-authorization. They don’t want to pay out of network prices but they really don’t want to be sued for breach of contract for denying you medically necessary care that their network is incapable of providing. They really don’t want to be highlighted on the 6 o’clock news for doing that. You might not get pre-authorized to the doc that you want but you should get a pre-authorization. Secondly, save the bills. Save all your documentation. Save your notes from the phone calls including the first and last name of the person you talked with, time, date, questions, answers and follow-up questions needed for clarification. If things get messy, a complete contemporary paper trail is a wonderful thing.

So sad to hear, I like him in many television shows and movies like Mr. Hollands Opus as the coach who taught the kids how to march in the band.
Yep. Loved that movie. Loved him in it.

The corruptest sheriff scum doesn’t like what the law did to him while he did it to others unlawfully.
my take:
one of the reasons why the homegrown demagogue has been blatantly lying about his reaction to Charlottesville is not because he has a conscience.
rather, the venom and denials is mainly because he is loosing money as more organizations disassociate themselves from having a business relationship with him.
money, power, and attention are among the things he treasures most … there is a hollow or dark mass where a heart ought to be
I agree that if it were not affecting his pocket, he would have given the “somber”, “serious???” speeches.
The problem for him is that he is not taking responsibility for his words and (in)action. He’s not even saying he was wrong. Instead, he is blaming others. For that reason — and others — his lack of sincerity shines through whenever he attempts to explain away Charlottesville.
