The Obama Diary 
Thank you.
Of all the wonderful events at the Obama White House during those eight years, the campfire will always be one of my favorites! What a brilliant idea! And what great memories for those girls and the adults who accompanied them!
That’s the good old days when people of all color were welcome to the White House. It was a joy to visit there. Unlike now.
Good Evening TODbots.
Congrats, VC, the Au ⭐ looks mighty good on you. Furst 🙂
Thank you, NW.
Now, this.
And Les Moonves is Out of CBS.
Please delete….this is rubbish. This is NOT our beloved Serena Williams. I was so excited, that I didn’t even check. NW please delete this. Thank you.
Pardon me, TODville.
Hope you all had a good weekend. Lacing up our organizing shoes to make the BLUE WAVE happen!
Yes!!! Same here. This will be our way out of this disaster!
I hope we will learn that Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins can not be trusted to do the right thing. They are alot of B.S., deep down they are about sticking with party instead of doing what’s right.
Sad but probably true.
Good morning TOD! Just a quick thought as I run to work. It looked like the woman who came to take plaid shirt guy’s place behind iQ45 on stage looks like the woman behind Kavanaugh at his hearings. The one signing Nazi/white supremacist finger signs.
Good morning, TODville.
Thanks for posting this video, Nerdy!! I love the absolute sweetness of POTUS and FLOTUS honoring children in so many ways and the goodness of entire White House crew when we were fully represented 2008-2016.
These are the things that i miss the most about President Obama and FL Michelle Obama…it was their humaneness…their caring…their kindness…
when i listened to Pres Obama’s clarity of message…on Friday….i like how he appealed to non democrats…giving them a reason to vote democratic…he talked about rule of law…about democracy…and how it is up to alllll of us to rescue our Democracy…
First Lady……with the #WhenWeAllVote campaign…to register new voters….to encourage people to vote…..
#YesWeStillCan…and we still are #StrongerTogether
I was just watching a video of our FLOTUS urging people to vote. I’m so proud of her and miss her dearly. She and POTUS are my North Star.
yes they are…we are so lucky to have them…
So nice to remember back to when this was an open, fun PEOPLE’S HOUSE…. and not a den of liars and heathens
Heathens as in not honorable, truthful and with any morals or scruples
Indeed, when the White House was a cool place to visit and you didn’t need to be a millionaire or billionaire to be invited…
Joe Manchin’s ad…given the people he represents….this is a good ad…and he uses a hunting rifle not a assault weapon…..
I HAVE ALREADY BEEN TURNED DOWN FOR MEDICARE SUPPLEMENTS BECAUSE OF A PRE-EXISTING CONDITION..YOU’RE LATE!
Sorry to hear that Sue….
Oh, Sue – that’s awful!
I’m glad he’s fighting for healthcare but this whole macho gun imagery thing makes me sick. UGH.
this is a gun toting region…and that is who he was trying to appeal to…and that he used a hunting rifle instead of an assault file was not lost…his state has a lot of opiod addiction…the lost of health care would be devastating….it seems as if Health Care is the bottom line for alot of Americans..no matter where they stand on other issues
Good morning all, have a blessed and glorious day, keeping in touch when i can, keep working on getting rid of the orange blob, obviously from his facial expressions that young man was not agreeing with anything Orange One was saying, therefore be gone with him. Hope everyone is in the peak of health, those who are not are healing nicely, back to catching up.
Interesting
President Obama will appear with Richard Cordray, a Democrat running for governor, Thursday night at the Cleveland Metropolitan School District East Professional Center Gymnasium at 1349 E. 79th St. in Cleveland. An exact time for the program has not been announced, but doors to the public event will open at 5 p.m.
I never understood why the Democratic Party won’t follow the Obama blueprint for getting elected and getting shit done.
President Obama, sorry.
Because the higher-ups/Super-delegates do not want the Democratic Party to become the Obama Party which it might have to become. They NEVER wanted Barack Obama to be the “face” and “his policies” to be associated with the Party. They were OK with following Howard Dean but not PBO.
Look who finally made it to the party! Better late than never.
THIS
Ummmm….
Oh yes…the thread. Share the thread.
I saw this Saturday night so sent an FACT-BASED Resistbot to my senators. Then, I ended it with the story that Sen. Collins received 3000 coat hangers and said I assumed she would be passing those out to her constituents.
Ugh, Almost EVERYONE in our current government is hugged up to a lobbyist, married to a lobbyist, because they need lots of money to campaign to get in and/or stay in office whether they are doing good for every day citizens or the wealthy.
I wonder if we will ever get money out of our politics or it is engrained forever?
It’s simply amazing, isn’t it, how so many Republicans have connections to Russia these days! It looks like the GOP really needs to purge itself of its Russian addiction. Over the years the Russians have come to dominate the Washington lobbying industry. That’s really scary because Republicans, especially, just love their lobbyist friends.
This racist SOB just left Congress to focus on fooling Floridians into voting for him for governor
Floridians would have to be CRAZY to put this nut in office.
agreed
Yeap! Let’s bully PEACE through their throats.

U.S. to close Palestinians’ office in Washington, citing their refusal to move forward on making peace with Israel
The Trump administration said in a statement that Palestinian authorities had failed to take steps “to advance the start of direct and meaningful negotiations with Israel,” including their condemnation of a pending U.S. peace plan.
Chief Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat decried the move as a continuation of a policy of “collective punishment” by the United States.
Do as I say, we won’t listen to what you want, make peace with your persecutor Israel, or we take our ball and go home. REAL MATURE AMERICA!
re: the shooting death of Botham Jean by Officer Guyger….i believe that she had a key to his apartment….that there was a relationship between them…that they were not strangers
There is a video that someone gave the family of the officer banging on the door saying “open up” and when he opened the door she opened fire on him. That is what the buzz is today whether it will all come out is a matter of days. It is rumored they were dating and that is why the police arrested her after the family provided the police with the video. The police still wants to say she thought she was at her apartment which if she lives there why did she open fire and kill him? They want it to seem the man she killed, an AA, did not belong there when maybe they were living together.
To me, it sounds like she either had a side hustle or she was paying off a debt.
Good Afternoon, TODbots…..I’ve just seen this. I have not read it, nor do I know what this is about. I know yesterday, more stuff about speaking with White Racists groups emerged yesterday, reported by WashPost.
here is his letter of resignation….he is trying to be all pious…he is a Fraud….
Thnx.
Am waiting for other shoe to drop, don’t believe that BS in letter. To begin w/ Congress is hardly in session. 😏
Thank you. It seems to me the Special Counsel made him an offer he couldn’t refuse.
Special Counsel? Explain? Is he involved with Mueller investigation?
I’m suggesting the real reason behind his decision to resign from the House has more to do with the Mueller probe than his love of Floridians. I think he’s in trouble. I think he’s a target.
DeSantis or Paul Ryan? Was DeSantis part of the Trump Campaign or involved with Nunez in the obstruction of justice?
that’s our Baltimore City Mayor Catherine Pugh, 4th from the left 🙂
Wow what a shift to the right in such a socially progressive nation:
“The Sweden Democrats, a party with white supremacist roots, won 17.6 percent, about 5 percentage points more than four years ago.
…the biggest gain of any party….Sweden saw itself as a “humanitarian superpower” for years, but a rise in gang violence in immigrant-dominated, deprived city suburbs has also won support for the “Sweden Democrats”. (Stockholm Reuters)
n.b. the biggest party in the Alliance, the Moderates, doesn’t want to cooperate with the so-called “Sweden Democrats”.
Bannon’s European “The Movement” create chaos tour for the extreme right + his role in the Russian disinformation agenda is in play.
We must cut off Bannon absolutely with extreme vigor in the U.S.
Keep up the pressure. I will
McCaskill? Does she have daughters? Did she disestablish her Vagina?
Dems should NOT be on this list. I don’t care WHAT color state they live in!
A-FREAKING-MEN!!!!!!
Vote him out, CA!
imo claiming the Vote is already cast makes AP suspect. Kavanaugh declared Roe up for grabs a few times – even recently. Will look it up.
👀😮😒
even when they lose…they win
Such a horrific waste any way you cut it.
Dicktraitor: blah, blah, blah…any old rope…blah blah petunias…not worth a light.
-the young man in the audience who was hauled off and questioned just because he responded to Trump’s comments naturally, said that everyone had been told to “just clap and smile”. Well right now today the media can opt to stop doing that. Set him straight or ignore him.
Quinnipiac also had Dotard at 38% Approve. 32% at Honesty….too high imo.
Being a bully does not translate to equal strength and he has NEVER shown a symbol of intelligence EVER.
NO WORDS.
When you gut the EPA what the hell does anyone expect? No one there or encouraged to go after violators.
President Barack Obama greets the crowd during a Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee rally at the Anaheim Convention Center on September 8, 2018 in Anaheim, California.
Talk about crowd fired up! PBO in support of Josh Harder, TJ Cox, Katie Hill, Gil Cisneros, Katie Porter, Harley Rouda and Mike Levin: Saying midterms are a chance to “restore sanity….All across the country you can feel the energy…We”re going to kick off our bedroom slippers and put on our marching shoes.” “As a fellow citizen, not as an ex-president but as a citizen, I’m here to deliver simple message and that is that you need to vote because our democracy depends on it.” “When people don’t participate, that vacuum is filled with lobbyists and special interests.” “This is a government for everybody, it’s not for sale, that’s what we believe in.” Fave prez hath spoked.
She’s so beautiful!
She’s gorgeous.
Without any she says, “She sure looks a lot like my (younger) granddaughter. 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂
Fliroda is Just one example. It happens in most States.
😳
Florida.
John Oliver pointed out that the vast majority of disenfranchised former felons are in the state of Florida. The governor of Florida headed a company that paid in 2002 the largest fraud settlement in US history – for Medicare fraud. How could he be allowed to vote there? And how can any Floridians, especially a senior citizens, ever explain how explain why they voted for him? Thank you, John Oliver, once again.
There is something very very hinky about each iteration of this entire story.
On this twitter thread it show how it is impossible to open another units’ door with the wrong key. So now the DPD is saying the door was not closed and that is why she walked in with her gun pulled. They are changing the story to fit what is best for the PD and this officer. How can you spin a guy who is a professional working for a Big 3/4 CPA firm as a thug or bad guy. There will be NO police mug shot. The people who live there are calling DPD B.S. Where are his co-workers? Why aren’t they stepping up to give witness to this man’s character?
SO, in addition to the key fob red light that blinks when you’ve got the wrong apartment, the apartment numbers are lit up like this day and night. How do you get so confused that you wind up killing someone?
There is more to this story than the DPD is telling the public or the family. Unless she also has a red door mat, she lives so close that she mistook the number, she went to put the key in (red light would still come on) and the door was unlocked. Why would his door be ajar or unlocked. Plus, if true, it came out she was banging on the door saying “open up”. Very fishy.
Yeah, more fishiness……….
Still makes me cry. I miss him so much!
I’m one of those people.
We placed our order today.
MY POTUS
OH? Do SHARE! He really IS Valdemort!
I hope Floridians see that – and NEVER VOTE FOR A RUSSIAN REPUBLICAN AGAIN!
Every day another GOP rock is turned over to show another Russian connection. This is simply too amazing to be coincidence.
It’s totally amazing that it’s all going on, been going on, and we’re finding out about it only under trump. Which is possibly the only reason we have to put up with trump, but we’d rather not, TYVM.
Agreed. Whatever she did in the past will be ignored for this vote alone. She better chose wisely.
From some in New Zealand.
The storm coming from this WH is equally dangerous. Unlike those storms coming from the Atlantic, the WH storms seem endless!
Somehow, reading that tweet supposed from Don the Con makes me laugh. That’s one tweet he did not prepare on his own. No one is insulted in it or belittled or libeled. Can’t possibly be from Don the Con’s little fingers.
New post.

DAMN and Double Damn…..watching Maddow’s that last segment on Trump’s plan to declassify info re: Or’s investigation between Putin and Russian Organized crime…just think of all the pople he will put in jeopardy….how many people’s lives will be in danger….how many of the international intelligence community will no longer trust us with information….Crickets from the GOP leaders in Congress…in fact they will leading the way to leak the info…
