Good morning No Child. I am still worried for this country. It’s not just Trump it is the whole Republican party. I always considered myself an Evangelical Christian. Now I don’t know the people who call themselves evangelical and vote for a pedofile. He is also a Islamophobic and against transgenders, immigrants etc. Alabama please wake up.
And another. Some people may recall Lauer's hosting of a 2016 "debate" in which he harassed Clinton nonstop over emails while letting Trump skate on everything. But sexism had nothing to do with media behavior last year, oh no https://t.co/ip4oaQ3AnH

GOP refuses to learn the lessons of Kansas’ failed tax experiment
11/29/17 10:46 AM
By Steve Benen
………………………………..
The Kansas City Star published a piece over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend from Steve Rose, who described himself as a “Bob Dole Republican,” and who lamented the fact that Kansas’ failed tax plan and the current GOP tax plan “are twins.”
Republicans at the federal level are claiming, just like Brownback did, that there will not be a resulting massive deficit if taxes are slashed. Most independent, non-partisan researchers predict a $1.5 trillion deficit will be the result of the tax cuts that have been proposed.
Blinded Republicans claim these huge tax cuts for businesses and the wealthy will stimulate the economy enough that overall revenue will grow, not shrink. Revenue growth is supposed to trickle down to the middle-class taxpayers.
Sound familiar? That is exactly what was sold to Kansans, who saw their state’s budget hemorrhage. Nothing trickled down except cuts in services for the middle class.
People are finally seeing through the lies about Obamacare and embracing it, but if they don’t see through the even worse lies about the tax bill, killing the individual mandate in that bill will doom it anyway. Keep calling your Senators to protest this scam giveaway to the 1% and large corporations.
I just made my calls to the 10 Senators listed on the ‘Trump Tax tool kit’. I find this kit extremely helpful and easy to use on my cellphone.
Been calling almost every day even in the face of despair when I feel that this might be a battle that they may win by shoving it through
the Senate. But, we can never give up. Miracles still happen. HOPE SPRINGS ETERNAL!
You are welcome GGAIL. Yes we do need all the calls/callers we can get. And yes this kit makes it very easy. It’s similar
to the one we used when we were fighting for the ACA/Obamacare. My prayer is that this horrendous nightmare does not
pass in the Senate. But, in addition to praying, we have to call.
Trump was ‘wrong’ to share anti-Muslim videos from U.K. group that ‘peddles lies,’ British prime minister’s office says
President Trump retweeted three anti-Muslim videos posted by the group Britain First, which Theresa May’s spokeswoman condemned for their use of “hateful” material “which peddles lies and stokes tensions.” She said the group is “the antithesis of the values of our country.”
Garrison Keillor, ex-host of “A Prairie Home Companion,” dropped by Minnesota Public Radio after allegations of improper behavior
Garrison Keillor told the Associated Press he was fired over “a story that I think is more interesting and more complicated than the version MPR heard.” He didn’t give details of the allegation.
MPR said it was notified last month of allegations related to Keillor’s conduct with an individual whom he worked with while he was responsible for the production of “A Prairie Home Companion.”
On Tuesday, Keillor, an avowed Democrat and occasional columnist for The Washington Post News Service and Syndicate, wrote an op-ed ridiculing the idea that Sen. Al Franken (D-Minn.) should resign over allegations of sexual harassment.

I predict that unemployment rate will shoot to 10% very soon because of men’s behavior in the workplace.
What is Jared Kushner hiding? The Senate needs to get this information to the American people now so we can understand just what the heck is going on. https://t.co/6NqK0WyB5upic.twitter.com/TXM0tU2bUH
-Matt Lauer out at NBC -POTUS shares anti-muslim videos -POTUS calls for a boycott of a US media organization -Fmr. Bosnian Croat military chief drinks poison at war crimes trial -POTUS calls for investigation into Joe Scarborough -ESPN terminating 150 employees
This is the crazy shit that is floating up there. I will not be surprised if trump doesn’t pick this,or at least this topic, up in one of his conspiracy tweet.
okay couldn’t sit through all of that 5+ minutes. Apparently she’s very concerned that Obama and the Africans or maybe Obama and the European’s are going to take over the United States. She must have missed the last 8 yrs wherein he could have done exactly what her buddy Trump is attempting to do now… take over the US with the help of his daddy Putin and Russia.
Is she a product of Fox News? Self hate? Bad parenting? Drugs? Private schooling perhaps? Dunno… I am consistently dumbfounded by the things that people in this country come up with to attack & vilify President Obama. It’s completely demented. I remember years ago- like 30 or so, I was watching a video by a psycho-therapist and he commented that about 85% of Americans are dysfunctional- that was in the 80s. There are many times when I think back on his comments.
Agree with the other responses here. (Didn’t, and won’t click on the video.)
It’s pretty much impossible to be online and *avoid* anti-Obama mindsets.
We endured 8+ years of this every. single. day, and Chips created this magnificent oasis in order to SPARE fellow Obots from this kind of vile claptrap.
I understand if you guys don’t want this on the blog and I debated about posting it myself. I like looking behind the curtain, especially with a president who retweets conspiracy theories that begin with ppl like this woman, but get what you are saying. However, FYI no one ever needs to tell me to stay focus or vote. I have been doing both since before many on you have been on earth.
Emotionally he's a mess. But politically he's in control, The media has spent weeks focusing on sexual misconduct (other than his). Meanwhile he guts the CFPB and net neutrality. Senate poised to pass an awful tax bill. Then confirm some judges. Wake up!https://t.co/9yLxMxnOqo
I can’t believe they also fired Garrison Keillor too. He said he was consoling a woman and touched her back. He apologized immediately to her face and then later in an email which she said “no problem” until he was contacted by her lawyer. If this is true (he should show the email) then NPR is a big weinie. I think the Trumpanzees are getting rid of liberal voices in retaliation of so many conservatives who were fired early this year.
I am waiting for some woman to say Barack Obama touched her inappropriately when they took a picture together. This is just crazy.
Dear TOD posters,
I’m requesting that you considered the purpose of your post before you hit Send.
Our standards are going in the wrong direction lately. If we want to know who just got fired for allegations, we can click on Yahoo or several blogs. Same if we want tabloid stories.
If you’ve been lurking or participating on TOD then you are aware of the high standards set by Chipsticks. If your post won’t pass, then post it somewhere else!
Director @Ava and actor David Oyelowo join us today, for the inaugural #SmithsonianIngenuity Festival! The conversation will explore the cinematic interpretation of historic and cultural milestones in African American film, and more.
GE, TODbots.
Congrats, NCLB on your Gold ⭐ Furst 😉

Thanks to NW for all you do for TOD.

Thanks to all those who find interesting News to post here. I learn a lot from our Contributors. Not all of Us have the Time, all the time. Sharing is Caring. Since last Thursday, I have depended on many of TODbots for News. Thank you.

We knew he was a racist even before he ran for office. Republicans have embraced him and have made it clear how they feel about racism and White Supremacy.
Muslim friends: as a Christian I want you to know that many of us stand with you today. I'm sorry about our president, grieve with you for the state of our country, and we'll keep working together to make it better.

Hmmm, Marco Rubio says that the tax plan is just the first step before "instituting structural changes to Social Security and Medicare" benefits to reduce the federal deficit. https://t.co/MPMczpCLjT
Trump will drag the GOP down the rabbit hole with him, either as they inexplicably move to hand him legislative “victories”, or abandon their so-called principles to hold on to congressional power with a GOP president.
👉After being turned down four times for being too “negative”, we finally found a billboard company in Alabama that was willing to put up our new billboard with a picture of Roy Moore and the text: “Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s daughter.”
The House of Representatives seeks contempt citations(?) against the JusticeDepartment and the FBI for withholding key documents and an FBI witness which could shed light on surveillance of associates of Donald Trump. Big stuff. Deep State. Give this information NOW! @FoxNews
Even by Trumpian standards, today has been a remarkable day, filled with despicable Tweets and reports of delusional behavior. What has pushed him over the edge? Is it Flynn?
In 2000, Trump reportedly pointed out a “young socialite” at Mar-a-Lago and told a reporter “there is nothing in the world like first-rate p*ssy.” https://t.co/rsjEUnL2IV
Project Veritas operative’s effort to infiltrate The Washington Post dates back months and extends to other media outlets
The failed effort by conservative activists to plant a false story about Senate candidate Roy Moore in The Washington Post was part of a months-long campaign to infiltrate The Post and other media outlets, according to interviews, text messages and social media posts that have since been deleted.
Starting in July, Jaime Phillips joined two dozen networking groups related to either journalism or left-leaning politics. She signed up to attend 15 related social events, often accompanied by a male companion, and appeared at least twice at gatherings for departing Post staffers.
NO THANKS…JESUS CHRIST WAS NOT ACTUALLY BORN ON DECEMBER 25TH..I’M NOT INTERESTED…CHRISTMAS IS A COMMERCIALIZED EXCUSE TO KEEP THE TOY STORES OPEN AND THE FOOLS DRUNK AT OFFICE PARTIES.
Closing this long, busy day with sharing of a bumper sticker I noticed today. It made me feel calmer, reminded me it’s likely the reason PBO and MO are so dedicated to moving forward, just as they have always done. Both brilliant lawyers, they keep the faith this part of our story will pass, as it must. Due Process. Keep You All The Heart. ❤️🙏🏻🕯
“If we can’t get checks on the presidency from Congress, my office won’t hesitate to fill the space. I’m willing to bet on the rule of law.” https://t.co/IoMQe54sg6
I really hope he hurries. I am very tired of all that’s being done to our people by these deceitful, hateful racists. I’m tired of waiting for the right thing to be done by honorable people. I’m far from losing hope, but I am angrier and angrier by the day, feeling very much like it’s time we the people stepped in… don’t know how, but I do know we haven’t been able to count on the people in charge- republicans- to ever do what’s decent. They really are coming for all of us- except the very wealthy white people.
Schneiderman has been doing a great job so far and I hope he continues to be vigilant in his fight against this corrupt regime. We need more AGs like him.
Morning TOD and Gazelle- allow me to chime onto your comment. Judith, praying for your health. You are a much needed force in the universe. I love your passion and steadfastness to keep us all moving forward. Bless you !!
I've watched this ad for a Democratic candidate for Michigan Attorney General a dozen times.

Yep, every day it seems like we reach new depths when it comes to depravity. It used to be how low can we go, now its lets see how low can we go. its like we are controlled by our dicks instead of our minds.
IndivisibleSF is making calls to Alabama. Let’s do this, people.
"In interviews last Tuesday with 10 African-Americans at a strip mall near the Walmart, six of them said they were not aware that a Senate race was underway." https://t.co/8qllZW0oGt
There are 765,000 active black voters in Alabama, but only one million total voters are expected to vote in the election. If blacks were targeted and encouraged to turn out, they could decide the election for Doug Jones against Roy Moore.
I’m sorry but goddamnit, who’s fucking fault is it that they didn’t know about a senate race going on? C’mon with the fucking excuses, wake the fuck up and open your eyes.
I agree completely. I recognize that people are busy and don’t follow the news as closely as some of us, but damnit, these are very dire times and we best be aware of these massive negative changes, HUGE hostile cultural shifts, like the one we’re in RIGHT NOW. Our democracy is absolutely in peril. WAKE UP.
Arguments for the proposed #TaxCuts rest on the government taking less money out of the economy. Yet, the richer group would contribute less from today’s baseline.
If the Republican tax cuts bill becomes law, it will immediately trigger a $25 billion cut in Medicare. Last time this happened, cancer treatments were denied. https://t.co/L4yr3dI7aO
This is a table that the Senate GOP didn't want you to see. They were sitting on it for 2 days. It shows that over 80% (yup, 4 out of 5) of ALL households end up with a tax increase or get basically nothing from their so-called "middle class tax cut." pic.twitter.com/JhiNYjZ3Dk
The only people more desperate to give Donald Trump a billion dollar tax break than Donald Trump is the entire Republican Party.https://t.co/BkJJj1R3mQ
1/ For years, Republicans have castigated the cost-sharing payments as insurer bailouts. That was a lie—but Republicans may have found a way to make their lie come true.

Correct. They even SAID they wouldn’t pay higher wages but give their windfall to their shareholders! WTF is SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND???? America! Quit believing the party that has REPEATEDLY lied to you about literally EVERYTHING! If it was so wonderful for most of us, they wouldn’t have to fucking LIE ABOUT IT!
It is difficult to overstate the far reaching violence of this tax bill. https://t.co/SpviV5n40A

Rachel Maddow updates a running list of Russia-connected contacts by members of the Donald Trump campaign, bringing the count to 19, with the open possibility of new ones being exposed
The tax plan has been marketed by President Trump and Republican leaders as a straightforward if enormous rebate for the masses, a $1.5 trillion package of cuts to spur hiring and economic growth. But as the bill has been rushed through Congress with scant debate, its far broader ramifications have come into focus, revealing a catchall legislative creation that could reshape major areas of American life, from education to health care.
This is escalating. Conyers should never have so vehemently denied when there is apparently all kinds of evidence to the contrary.
Pelosi says she's learned more since Sunday (when she gave interview on Meet The Press). Allegations are "serious". She wishes Conyers, who is hospitalized well, but says he should step down.

Good morning No Child. I am still worried for this country. It’s not just Trump it is the whole Republican party. I always considered myself an Evangelical Christian.

You got that right, Marilyn. All norms are upside down and sadly to say because of the GOP.

The media went berzerk over a F’ing “tan suit” because they had nothing else to be up-in-arms about with a real President.

I kind of feel like this is how you beat idiots like Trump who just make a mockery of everything. It’s useless to try and deal with him seriously.
Yep, every day it seems like we reach new depths when it comes to depravity. It used to be how low can we go, now its lets see how low can we go. its like we are controlled by our dicks instead of our minds.

I recognize that people are busy and don’t follow the news as closely as some of us, but damnit, these are very dire times and we best be aware of these massive negative changes, HUGE hostile cultural shifts, like the one we’re in RIGHT NOW. Our democracy is absolutely in peril. WAKE UP.
Maybe everyone should know this. Just maybe
JHC, this is just really, really awful.

The GOP Tax Scam
……………………….
The tax plan has been marketed by President Trump and Republican leaders as a straightforward if enormous rebate for the masses, a $1.5 trillion package of cuts to spur hiring and economic growth. But as the bill has been rushed through Congress with scant debate, its far broader ramifications have come into focus, revealing a catchall legislative creation that could reshape major areas of American life, from education to health care.
This is escalating. Conyers should never have so vehemently denied when there is apparently all kinds of evidence to the contrary.
