The Obama Diary 
As Trump becomes more desperate as well as the GOP they will take more risks with their lies.
Congratulations on first catrst. I am beginning to believe Maddow has her own private spies.
Like Michael Avenatti 😉
Last Night show, I just saw it this AM was Fantastic.
GA, TODbots.
Congrats, Catrst on Your Au ⭐ Furst 🙂
Nate McMurray (DEM) is challenging the newly arrested and indicted Chris Collins for his seat. I asked Joy if she would have him on her show.
That’s a great idea. Joy should have one candidate each week up to the election day.
Put the Kebler Elf in prison.
now that would indeed be deep…..US Marshall arresting the AG…
Just heard that story – best news I’ve seen all day!
Yaaaahhhh
Gee! Wouldn’t that be nice and solve our problem?
Now I know where this is coming from, the Marvel Billionaire that’s running the VA.
Can we send Trump and his family up there? Please? That would make the cost of the Space Force worth every penny.
Ditto!
Full Confession…..Sean Connery was my Favorite James Bond. I liked Timothy Dalton too. Then Roger during my Intermittent days.
But if they can get Idris & a Great Story……I’m back in.
Please please pleeeeeaaaaasssssseeeeee
Yes, yes, yes, yes! I’ll be first in line!
Heads would explode in absolute joy or pure rage if Idris was selected to play Bond. Go for it!!
Roger Moore was my guy back in the day, I remember going to the movies to see “Live And Let Die” and “Moonraker.”
Yes, please!
Dicktraitor continuous lying + trashing of protocols breaks down your Will to fight.
Well said Steve Schmidt. “Let’s talk about the political strategy here. It’s a desperate political strategy. When you look at the special election in Ohio, if it was president Marco Rubio, this Republican would have won by 15 points. But because it’s President Trump, the Republican barely beat a Democratic candidate. And so all of the signs point to a blue tsunami coming, but in a fight, there are only two ways to win. You can bring your opponent to submission. Think Germany and Japan after World War II. Or you can break their will to fight. Think of the United States in the Vietnam war. The strategy is fundamentally one about exhausting and wearing out the will to fight and resist of Democratic voters by inciting the base. Trump needs that base incited. He needs it to turn out to hold back as best as possible this blue wave…”
PUTIN PARTY’S HOSTILE TAKEOVER OF AMERICA….strategies not rocket science….media pls underline in caps.
Sessions Racist bigot,
Normally I would cheer the possibility of Sessions being thrown in jail and losing his job, but under the present situation Trump could replace Sessions with someone that would fire Mueller and end the investigation.
HA!
LOL.
why does the media and punditry go on and on about what that Team Treason have “told Special Counsel Mueller they will and will not do”????
when does a criminal ever get to order a prosecutor?????
Since Mueller’s team is so tight-lipped, the MSM feels like it should air Rudy’s Clown Show to fill up some time.
They can have him on to spin all the indictments the Mueller team will hopefully start bringing down on people.
KKK to show their ugly in DC. Stay safe.

The police have banned weapons at the White nonsense parade. I hope that the counter protesters come out in force. Racism should not be tolerated including when it’s in the White House.
So fabulous! #KremlinAnnex
Love it, too.
Am hoping they keep those KKK MoFo’s out of the Park. KKK has stated that Park as one of their staging grounds. Methinks only a couple KKK will show up in that location. Still hoping no harm comes to the fab protesters who’ve been there for almost a month. ❤
Yes, I think they were granted the permit to go to another location … but I’ll be praying that’s true!
So much talent keeping iQ45 up all night. No rest for the wicked indeed! Keep it up! ❤
He’s not there right now, but he has been there lots of nights and I’m lovin’ it, too!
Yessssssss!
Go Tally!! You rock, girl!!
Thank you, Tally! Great tweets! Glad you showed them here.
Tally, darlin’ – If you’re looking for a role in the next Avengers movie, you just nailed it.
Brava!
Thank you for speaking on this important issue. It doesn’t make sense that we are not up in arms over what is going on with our democracy. Our votes need to be certified and secure. Otherwise, this is no longer a democracy.
oops
We need to keep this atrocity front and center.
Predatory privatization:
Private contractors of detainment centers (prisons) are not trained government employees. We must realize and always remember that these private contractors are fully in control without public oversight. Profiteers without moral obligation.
REUNITE THE FAMILIES. RELEASE OUR CHILDREN.
YES.
I just got word from her that there will be a lawsuit filed because this center has violated in at least 3 critical ways, one of which involves ORR. This must end.
Hold fast to the Light of Truth.
Agreed. Democrats should turn the question around and ask whether Republicans in the House will vote for Jim Jordan as their leader given the sexual harassment allegations in his background.
Why did McConnell say he’d wait until the 2016 elections were over to seat a SC justice when Hillary was polling massively ahead of the orange asshole? Every wonder that? I do. Share this. It was rigged alright. Morning everyone. TGIF
https://www.dallasnews.com/opinion/commentary/2017/12/15/putins-proxies-helped-funnel-millions-gop-campaigns
I have preached the fix was in from the time McConnell made his declaration regarding waiting until election over to proceed with SCOTUS hearing. The stench was strong coming from McConnell, racist, misogynist, thug, greedy SOB.
“McConnell…knew as a participant in high level intelligence briefings in 2016 that our electoral process was under attack by the Russians. Two weeks after the Department of Homeland Security and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence issued a joint statement in October 2016 that the Russian government had directed the effort to interfere in our electoral process, McConnell’s PAC accepted a $1 million donation from Blavatnik’s AI-Altep Holdings. The PAC took another $1 million from Blavatnik’s AI-Altep Holdings on March 30, 2017, just 10 days after former FBI Director James Comey publicly testified before the House Intelligence Committee about Russia’s interference in the election.”
Q: How is McConnell still there without repercussion? IMO in plain sight he’s been hostile to America for at least a decade. Anti-American, anti-government. Obstructing on behalf of Koch brothers and the nra. And now Putin.
There morons really do think they’re above the law. I hope he’s held in contempt of court.
And, there it is……..
Something hinky going on this morning at the Manafort trial:
Especially in light of this. The judge has been inordinately undermining the prosecution. I hope there isn’t a mistrial:
This was filed this morning:
The person the judge keeps attacking on the prosecution side is Assistant US Attorney Uzo Asonye. He is from Nigeria and to me it is obvious why the judge is picking on him. This judge is prejudiced against Mueller and his investigation. He is doing everything he can to show the prosecution in a negative light.
I thought the same thing. Very pointed attacks on USA Asonye.
great. how did he get the gig.
I wonder if the judge could be viewed in a negative light by some of the jurors? I would be put off by his obvious attacks on the prosecution. Every jury I have sat on the judges were totally neutral towards all parties, or that was my perception.
do you think it is a distraction tactic?
I was watching MSNBC don’t recall if it was LOD or RM’s show, but there was a attorney that had a case before this judge and he said this is typical behavior for this judge. The best thing to do is answer him back. He’s just combative because he can. I hate judges like this and I usually go with the side he picks on unless it’s the underdog with an appointed attorney who can’t afford a high price attorney.
So who does the PutinKoch machine have in mind?
yeh ouch.
Anyone know which 50, time to ask them what they have done for us.
They were showing a list on MSNBC earlier today – I think among the 50, only 11 are incumbents … the others are apparently running on this. Ugh.
Pelosi became the first woman speaker of the House of Representatives….
this is part of her speech that day
During her speech, she discussed the historical importance of being the first female to hold the position of Speaker:
This is a historic moment – for the Congress, and for the women of this country. It is a moment for which we have waited more than 200 years. Never losing faith, we waited through the many years of struggle to achieve our rights. But women weren’t just waiting; women were working. Never losing faith, we worked to redeem the promise of America, that all men and women are created equal. For our daughters and granddaughters, today, we have broken the marble ceiling. For our daughters and our granddaughters, the sky is the limit, anything is possible for them.[26]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nancy_Pelosi
*in 2006
imo today’s abusive father model, war on women, anti-equality, anti-liberal, anti-government extremist tentacles are long.
Who is pushing the attack on Pelosi, the same that attacked Hillary? Putin, republicans, NRA, Koch brothers, those kind have reason to be afraid of a strong woman, intelligent, capable strong woman.
thanks Anna
GA, lovely TODbots.
TGIF, Finally.
#Resistance!

They also never forgave her for saying “impeachment is off the table”. She should have never said that. When you give the GOP a break they see it as a sign of weakness. They would have started impeachment proceedings on HRC the day after the swearing her into office. I think Nancy is very effective as a speaker but not a good spokesperson for the party but no one else is either, so keep her as speaker. We just need someone else who can speak for the speaker like Ted Lieu,
Even if the Dems take the HOUSE….and can Impeach Trump….they will not be able to garner 70 votes in the Senate…..but what they can do is hold Trump accountable…DEMS would now head…the Judiciary committee…the finance committee…the oversight committee ….Impeachment sounds great…but realistically it will never happen…and Trump would come out emboldened….
I’m very much looking forward to the movie about her life. Love her to pieces. I hope she has another 25 years to go!!
The movie about her is amazing. I highly recommend you see it.
And then see it again, it is that wonderful.
