Thanks bunches, Nerdy! Morning everyone:)
😀
Yes, Thank you Nerdy (congrats df!) I don’t say thanks nearly enough to you for keeping us going. Without you, this site & all the informed folks here I’d feel very isolated. So many thanks to you Nerdy, df and all of TOD. Better days ahead hopefully soon.
Here! Here! Keep hope alive!
I share that sentiment, sherijr! Thanks, in particular, to Nerdy W!
Thank you so much, Sherijr. I appreciate it! 😀
and you deserve it! You are so welcome.
We love you, Nerdy, and your “wicked ways” !!! (That’s a compliment, from my perspective, by the way.) ❤
Here’s more on that student who gave such an impressive speech at yesterday’s student rally in DC. He’s amazing. I hope we’ll be hearing more from him.
meta, THANK YOU for this info. SOOOOOO many people either posted on own or shared my post of him. A few people commented how they would love to have more info about him. I just posted on Facebook.
UK punishes Russia over spy poisoning, Trump oddly quiet
Rachel Maddow looks at the history of the spy who was poisoned by Russia south of London and the strong response from the UK, and even strong statements from Nikki Haley and Sarah Huckabee Sanders, though Donald Trump himself has been wishy-washy.
Good
THIS
WOW. Good news. h/t to BJ for abbreviated story

Nationwide gun violence walkouts raise expectations for DC rally

Good Morning Family! Have a great day!
I want to live in a country run by people like this young man.
So good! This gives me hope
VOTE THEM OUT. IN EVERY STATE.
All these students do her proud:)
There are some amazing young people in this country. I’m convinced that growing up with Barack Obama as their President for eight years sparked something in them.
God, this is really sickening. I’ll never understand.
HA!…INDEED!
Another Black woman running for office…

Speaking of loved family members….
yasssssssssssssssssssss
What a little encouragement and concentration can boost our resolve. You could see she was saying this is just mind-over-matter, I can do this!
The child is a little boy, but the sentiment is still the same.
Oh boy! When will President Mueller subpoena the man-child? I am waiting for Act IV.
We Will really see who will uphold Rule of Law
Very important thread:
Read/spread.
Hello TODbots on a Partly Cloudy Afternoon.
Congrats, DF on your Au ⭐ Furst 😉
Thank you, NW. You are Golden!
{{{ ❤ Chips ❤ }}}
❤ ❤ ❤ my TODbots Community.
The tree was bad from the roots upward.
She was arrested for bringing guns to school. Unbelievable!
So ok maybe all of this is for PR, but the chemistry between them is as thick as my afro. if I was his girlfriend, I’d be more than a tad concerned. Just saying
The CA 1994 earthquake did that on the 10 frwy bridge on La Cienga Blvd in Los Angeles, CA The bridge was around for a long time survived many large earthquakes. This bridge is too long (eight lanes) with NO center holding it up?!! The bridges in Los Angeles ALL have what is called a ” Y ” center and double thick and wide side-walls holding them up. Whoever designed this bridge could not be a very bright engineer. I read on the orange satan site, that it took 6 days to construct this bridge. It was a module bridge put in place a few days ago. The Construction company and the company that put it in place scrubbed their website about this bridge. Someone got a screen shot before it was scrubbed.
WOW, I wonder what happened to the supports?! Usually there is scaffolding and supports until the structure I complete. It had NO supports while they allowed cars and people to use it……big time lawsuits.
Isn’t Florida a regulation free zone? I’m so thankful I live in CA where our public servants actually care about people.
me too idon…..me too.
DId this slip under the radar? Corrupt to the BONE
Sounds like a lot of Russian money might be used for money laundering. He is going to have so many money laundering charges. I guess this would be in D.C.
What seems weird to me is that those in Trumps administration caught lying or wasting tax payers money can lose their jobs. Yet the person setting the bad example that lies all the time and has much worst crimes in every sector is in charge of firing those under himself while he stays.
This is weird to everyone except the GOP in congress
And, it only got way worse for him since Vanessa Trump can now be compelled to testify against him …
OOOooooo, right!!
He’s degrading America in the eyes of the entire world
Trump is too stupid and too blind to see, but the leadership of the entire Western Hemisphere no longer resides in Washington, D.C. It has moved to Ottawa, Canada. Trump’s words are all lies, and the leaders know it, and he is making a total mockery of international diplomacy. He makes fun of Trudeau because he is good looking and smart, and has experience. There is just no bottom to the depth of my detestation of that man.
Gee, YA THINK?
And here we are.
WOW she looks good. She doesn’t look even in her 80’s.
Beautiful 💕
thankssssssssssssss…..loved it… smilin
OH. MY. GOD.
Rachel just reported this….i hope meta …that we will not be too late… come November 2018
It feels like our country is now completely porous. Meanwhile, Trump is busy being obsessed with his damn vanity wall.
We Must take back the Congress…and any state house that we can
This was absolutely TERRIFYING to me. Holy shit. And he does NOTHING!
yes it was…i wonder if there is any threat that make the Republicans act to protect the homeland
Awesome new Navy dude running on San Diego – check him out!
I’ll NEVER understand how this THUG became President of the United States:
Trump is a different kind of president
Manson was a different kind of commune leader
Pearl Harbor was a different kind of international relations
The Titanic was a different kind of ocean liner
O.J. was a different kind of celebrity
9/11 was a different kind of evacuation drill
Every day it turns my stomach. It’s just deplorable. Most days I have hope but last night I was overwhelmed by the enormity of it, the constant flood of ignorance and insanity. Playing games with our national security, Stormy Daniels BS, Ivanka standing in for Tillerson to meet with the foreign minister, emoluments left and right, complete stupidity and graft from the entire cabinet. I just can’t.
Meta, I so agree. These days it’s just so hard to make it through all this crap and know that Congress is doing nothing. Our country is in need of leaders who truly love America. Which means all of us.Thank goodness for TOD and I do see hope in the kids, etc. But when this is over we have so much repair work. I don’t think we can ever totally repair our standing in the world.
Every now and then it really hits me how grave the danger we face. I normally try to be a very positive person but some days it’s just too hard. These are dark days but I will bounce back with conscious effort and the support of everyone who loves our country. We have to PRESS ON.
Morning everyone. Sounds like a threat to me!

Of course he did! THIS is the man that the orange Mussolini protects!
A MOMENT OF SWEETNESS. I think we could all use some.
Before President Obama left office I used to jokingly say that he was the only thing standing between us and total anarchy. Trump isn’t standing between us and anarchy, he is the anarchy.
I firmly believe he’s leaving key positions unfilled and creating a mass exodus so he can move closer to authoritarian rule. He demands the people around him to be his loyal echo chamber.
In my opinion the more he is isolated the easier it will be to impeach him. Only if we have a majority of DEMS in the House and Senate which is a good chance. If Putin messes with our GRID or elections again, or threatens the USA with chemical weapons….game over!
Yes. This tells me a massive counter intelligence operations is underway and he’s and the TrumpKushner crime family are the target.
Don, I firmly believed that to be the case, especially during the healthcare and debt ceiling fights.
I will always be pissed that the Dems were not competent enough to see this and unify in the message that the GOP was waiting to unleash all kinds of socioeconomic chaos on Americans were it not for PBO keeping things in check.
New post.
