Hello, everybody!
Hey VC.
Well hello there, S11! It’s great to see you. đ đ {Apologies for the delay, I went off to play solitaire online.)
Hi, VC! Hope you are well. Congratulations on first.
Hi Terri, I’m alive and well, thank you. Trusting you are too. đ
Yes, I am. Thank you.
Hi VCP. Sunny here in Oregon today after three days of rain. My flowers are blooming. The German part of my family (my daughter married a German) are visiting me currently.
Enjoy your visit with your daughter and family.
đ So your grandchild is making his/her first US visit? It’s nice s/he isn’t aware who is in the WH.
I am so glad I have something to take me away from the reality of the fake Donald show today.
No comparison for you, I’m sure. đ As Pres O has often said, he’s pretty sure that his kids (+ later grandkids) will be his personal measure of success at life’s end.
Notice how he’s always seeking out the camera; he rarely seems to focus on the people he’s with.
So is Sessions committing women and children to possible death from abuse in order to be in the orange asshole’s good graces again? Just wondering
I keep hearing experts say that NK Kim should not be getting the attention he seeks especially due to his humanitarian record and past lies. In hearing that I am thinking Donald Trump should not be getting the attention he seeks especially due to his administrationâs humanitarian record and DTâs lies. Wouldnât it be nice if this summit happened and no one covered it? Seems to me it is all show anyhow.
I wish!
Recommend that all of you read every word of this magnificent tribute to Anthony Bourdain …

Bobfr, thank you so much for posting this beautiful, real tribute to Tony Bourdain. I felt the humor, yet sadness at the loss, yet joy @ this magnificent life. One who tried to move U.S. out of it’s self-imposed insularity. Bless!
Thanks, Dr. Bob!
Thank you, Bobfr, for sharing this.
You’re most welcome Gazelle, Judith & sjterrid!!
I am the only one who is using these few days (my usual news and politics spots) to watch movies instead of the much-hyped face-to-face?
No, UR not alone. Had best weekend by switching off all tv news, & this evening we’re into music around kitchen (as we do dishes) & HGTV elsewhere, or Travel Channel. Anything that doesn’t have iQ45. đ
Amen
You’re not alone. I had to cancel my recordings of Maddow and Lawrence from Monday through Wednesday. THey have to report on current events but I don’t have to watch. I rented A Wrinkle in Time which is fantastic. I’ve been watching it all weekend. I also watched a great old black and white, called Advise and Consent about the senate attempts to confirm the president’s SoS nominee. It was released in 1962. Some of the themes were very risque, including use of the word bitch. And I’m reading Clapper’s Facts and Fears. He has had an interesting personal and professional life. The book swings back between the past and present and it works very well..
I am catching up on my dvr recordings. They barely covered PBO when he was abroad. We had to follow him mostly online.
Good Evening TODVille.
I am with all of you. I can’t believe people are covering these two maniacs as if they have jointly discovered a cure for cancer!
I watched my recording of the Tonys
Disgusting!!!
Totally!
I want “our President Obama” back! No, actually, I’m glad he’s living his own life now – far away from these RWNJ fools!
This seems like a pertinent message…
Oops, check the ‘thread’ within this tweet.
As far as I am concern Kim um and Trump are both idiots.
So too are the networks that multiply their “breaking news” headlines with every move or gesture of IQ42 and Rocket man.
I need Jesus!
I believe I am not the only one in thinking the ‘summit’ in Singapore is a set-up by Pooootin.
He got both his minions to meet face-to-face after months of fake name calling each other.
Too bad the MSM isn’t boycotting this coverage … why would any self-respecting person believe anything the buffoon says?
They don’t believe it. They’re trying to get us to believe it. I’m not watching and I’m retweeting the crazy.
Dear God. What I meant to say is I’m NOT retreating the crazy
We knew what you meant đ
but the reality show in Trump’s D movie brain continues
Throughout our time on these shores, there have been “house negroes” ,Black overseers, people who rush to whichever party represents the ultimate in white privilege, or any other groups that they think they will be protected from the ravages of living while Black in America. White people flatter them, tell them that they are different/better than the average Black person. These people drink the kool-aid so deeply that they have few if any connections to other A-A’s. Every time there comes a point when they learn that they have been used, that there is no privilege to cover them and they are disposable. These sad traitors do not get seats on boards, access to any funds or a new job, They have nowhere to go and their opportunities are few. In this country, it is a fact that there are no second acts for A-A’s. We have either one shot or none. Ben Carson’s day of reckoning will be coming and there will be no white allies out here supporting/defending him. J. C.Watts, Michael Steele, Condoleeza Rice are all examples of people who fell for the lie and were left hanging. to make matters worse, like well-trained dogs, even after they have been disrespected and discarded, they will come running when their masters call. BTW, in case there is anyone here who still does not know, I am A-A, raised in the South so I can get away with saying/writing “house negroes.
Please “pardon me” for posting this. LMAO. (In this world, you gotta get your laughs where you can get ’em!)
Similar times & circumstances right here in US, right now. Pause. Know if we the people don’t push & continue to be complicit in our silence, we’re going to be singing far worse songs, if permitted. It can happen here, especially through our collective complacency. No doubt, don’t let anyone kid themselves. For those of us here at TOD who’ve lived through terrifying dictatorships, we know the signs & are right now numb in our disbelief. We don’t know how to tell those who’ve never experienced that insidousness & invasive horror to the psyche, how to recognize that’s where we’re heading. It’s never obvious in the very beginning. Then your rights are chipped away. If you protest, you’re “taken” away. Then you’re “taken” away by the factor of your life’s fabric, then you’re disappeared.
Please bear w/ me through my upset. I leave you w/ this beauty. â¤
Let me say this, voting rights, registration, citizenship, democracy, every thing you believed America to be, took for granted as what you thought America is, well now, every stitch, every seam, every last fabric of decency & honor is being shredded. The rich want their slaves. That means everyone who’s not that 1%. They benefit by pitting one group against the other, & look @ what SupCt did today …? Have to go find my polite words. đ
Thank you. This was wonderful. Good for my soul.
Okay, so I don’t normally share angry tweets but I felt *pushed* to share this set. He asks a question the answer to which I’d love. ” Where is the 4th estate critically analyzing this fool’s errand? ”
Goodnight, TODville – and all the ships at sea!
good morning!
have a great day
Good morning, TOD Family.
I saw this in my email this morning and it brought s smile to my face to start the day. I always smile when dad are willing to do somewhat embarrassing things to boost their children’s spirits and give them confidence.
You Have To See This Heroic Dad Doing Ballet On Stage To Calm His Daughterâs Nerves…With a baby in his arms, no less!
That was beautiful SW, thank you for sharing…. she’ll always remember her daddy for that.
Loved this! â¤
đ That is just the sweetest thing!
Please share the info in this thread with your networks. Trump is whitewashing this monster.

I know why djt chose to meet with Kim….they have the same body shape! Trudeau, Macron, Obama, Abe…..all the others make him look like a sack of lard, but he and Kim look alike. He doesn’t feel inferior to or jealous of Kim. Sorry for this nasty cheap shot, but I am just so sick of this baby that it burns over some times.
He hasn’t taken into consideration that his old sack of lard next to a young sack of lard = sad sack of old lard!
I will be returning to the political news programs on the day that Manifort appears in court to address the recent indictment => i believe it is June 15th. hopefully, by then, the programming will be focused on something else.
Yes, Friday at 10am.
I might take the day off from work just to see this guy get perp-walked right into the slammer.
Hahahhhaaaaa! I feel you, Don! I really need this justice right now.
LOL that’s what I plan to.do too. His hearing is Friday at 10am ST
From the billionaire class to your ears:

@businessinsider – 2 minutes ago
Trump asks photographers to make him and Kim Jong Un look ‘nice, handsome, and thin’ in their photos. https://read.bi/2JFx2kP
This ratifies what I know about djt vis-Ă -vis Obama and Trudeau. They are slim, trim, handsome and admired. He cannot stand it…he is a sack of lard….I think that is one reason he attacks those two so much. His jealousy burns inside him more and more.
Now that Trump has put NK on the same level as the US (which has aspired to do good things for the world) was there any mention
of HUMAN RIGHTS in the secret conversation? Trump untrustworthy. Jong Un untrustworthy. Both have demonstrated that they’ve no use for human rights. Business deals? And then of course signed something or other without showing anyone in Congress or any foreign leaders first.
The ENTIRE PHUCK?!?!?
âAs an example, they have great beaches,â he said during a news conference after his meeting with Mr. Kim. âYou see that whenever theyâre exploding their cannons into the ocean. I said, âBoy look at that view. Wouldnât that make a great condo?ââ https://t.co/v5O57neseH

GM all.
Notice anything familiar:

I just want to get off this damn scary ride. Now.
Yes yes, he never talks below the surface level about the criminal justice system or racism. But when it comes to talking about “oligarchs or oligarchy” he gets a visible hard-on.
Apparently Kim agreed to dismantle a site that has already been dismantled. I think it must be the one in a mountain that risked blowing up all by itself. So absolutely nothing offered by NK. But Trump is the greatest dealmaker who ever lived.
Ooooooooooooooo…
So if you’re purged, does this mean that you can never vote again? Or are you given an opportunity to get back on the rolls? It’s amazing that a democratic country would purge its citizens from voting rolls for any reasons except treason.
The NYPDâs gang takedowns are the functional equivalent of the departmentâs unconstitutional stop-and-frisk policing tactic, and theyâre regularly criminalizing innocuous behavior, much like stop-and-frisk policing used to do,â echoed Lenox. âNone of this is to say that stop and frisk is over; but to the extent that the NYPD is touting the extraordinary decline in the number of people who are stopped by police, itâs incredibly interesting that as those stops decrease, the number of people identified as gang members increases dramatically.â
De Blasio, who came into office promising a ânew progressive eraâ for New York City, has benefited from both falling crime rates and the declining numbers of police stops that followed the stop-and-frisk ruling. But critics say that the mayor continues to support policies â like the NYPDâs so-called precision policing and its sweeping gang investigations â that criminalize poor communities of color and contribute to mass incarceration.
did DeBlasio..have a primary challenger?
But they have great beaches
ShaaaZammmmmmmmmm
Amb Power RT’d this, btw ….

HA!
Much like John Boehner, Dennis Rodman cries for no particular reason also, must be the inner turmoil.
Makes you wonder…where are Cornel West and Travis Smiley to support ‘Brother Trump’?
