Thanks Nerdy Wonka for this place.
Hi MtM, and ‘Good evening’ to you. Just rolling in to see what’s been simmering all day.
Hi, everyone. š
Good afternoon VC. Havenāt been able to check back in till now. The day has been simmering. Thankfully we are having beautiful fall weather here.

Congrats, Marilyn! Treasonous fake POTUS must be removed!
This is all so scary. We are losing our country.
You think she will officiate my wedding, let me go fine a groom. š
ā¤
heh…so cute.
Have to work tomorrow, so ‘Good night/day’, All.
….when you’ve got the flu and you’re still awake thinking…
Did the Rogue Kid Killer fake president know that Mr. Khashoggi was going to be murdered in advance?
Unfortunately, you may be right. (Hope your flu symptoms go away, pronto!)
thanx J’Ob.
Hope youāve got some good drugs and good soup. Feel better soon!
thanks Dudette! making some soup!

I so look forward to seeing Walker lose.
Koch protegĆ©e and puppet Scott Walker reminds me of that mummy in the movies that keeps lumbering on. Could he be any more anti-democratic and amassing all the power to the Governor’s office. Trump’s mini-pharaohs must go.
All heroes.
Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!
Unless they were completely inoperable, don’t understand why these very expensive planes weren’t moved.
I can’t understand why the Air Force did not fly the planes to another AF base. Seems like negligence.
Sears was blazing all kinds of trails back in the day.
If only Sears had gone on-line before Amazon they might still be with us. Those catalogues were everything if you lived in a little rural town!
Yep
This is awesome…..great info
Good morning everyone.
May your day be as great as you are hoping it is
Sweet. Good evening to you!
Peeps, print out this list for Election Night countdown:
MORE of this, please.
What a complete MESS.
Republicans are racist bigots,
THERE NEEDS TO BE A CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT GUARANTEEING EVERY CITIZEN THE RIGHT TO VOTE
I am trying really hard not to communicate negative messages to some members of Team Resistance but …. Heavens help me to hold my tongue;
I wish all in opposition of the corrupt republicans can focus their participation (songs, stories, pronouncements, meetings, legal advocacy, political ads etc) on the upcoming election;
So Little Lindsey suppose to be upset about what is going on with the missing journalists, if I could tell LL anything I would tell him to go talk to his lying racist, sexists, money grabbing golf buddy how upset he claim to be. What ashame the United States have a President who is trying to cover up a murder for Saudi Arabia. The journalists was a Saudi his life don’t matter, if it was a white journalists Trump would be all over tweeter ( I guess). When it comes to MONEY, even being white would come in second to Trump.
Morning people:)
awesome!!
I thought it was pretty catchy and inventive:)
Haha! Love it!
Fabulous!!
I think that’s a great idea. I wonder if the League of Women Voters might get interested. I’ve been so disappointed in their lack of interest in that mammoth problem of vote suppression in this country. I suspect that the organization is not so independent as they want to be seen as. Hmmm.
I have to say it out loud, right now. I will not be truly content and pleased unless we take the House AND the Senate. The thought of McConnell still in control there makes me crazy. He does tremendous damage to our country DAILY. We need to push hard!
Share THIS!!! They’re coming for your SS and Medicare!!
The rising debt is a direct result of the tax cuts for the rich. It has nothing to do with entitlement programs mostly used by the poor and working class. It’s disgusting that Republicans are pushing to cut these programs.
I’m with you 5,000 % on that, df! We MUST get McConnell out of there, and take back the Senate.
My girl….McSally is a trump sycophant. The dark money ads against Kyrsten Sinema are off the chart. They are so sick and outrageous that they are truly absurd. That said, many people will believe them because they WANT to believe them.
Yeah. I was wondering why they happened to have a BONE SAW with them for the interrogation!!! Accident my ass.
From what I’m reading, Khashoggi was cut up alive. The man was murdered. Trump should say that and make it plain that the U.S. will not tolerate such reprehensible behavior. But it’s Trump so he won’t.
Come on, GA!!

She is remarkable!!!
Oh yeh! šš¾
She’s magnificent! That dork standing next to her knew it. Ha!
I have an Uncle up there. Need to visit this museum the next time I visit him.
I’ve tried the early voting thing but it just doesn’t do anything for me, but my wife she loves to vote early so sometimes I go with her. I love the feel of going to the polls on voting day and standing in line and casting my vote. I love standing in line and trying to figure out who’s voting for who.
I’m the same way!! Everyone I know votes early by mail but I love getting in line early and watching everyone and thanking the poll workers. Crazy, I know.
I used to love that, too (I mail in now), but my favorite year was when my son and his oldest daughter (she was not old enough to vote then) and I went to the polling place together. My son kept kidding me that he couldn’t tell me which candidate he voted for (2008, presidential), because it was “private.” My granddaughter came along and watched us vote, and I asked the poll worker to give her an “I voted” sticker to wear. When we got outside in the Florida sunshine, my son started to sing, loudly, a line or two from “God Bless America” right on the sidewalk in front of the voters. So I had my hopes up on his choice. Finally, when President Obama WON later that night, he told me he’d voted for him and even though I knew he would, I cried. And also during that first announcement, the same granddaughter was with me and hugged me. And after President Obama won the second time, coincidentally she was visiting me on election night when the announcement came, and she looked over at me and said, “Crying? AGAIN?” #GoodTimes
Sweet.
Andrea Mitchell interviewed Pete today, and he was great!
Thanks Pete
Too funny. I feel a “big relief” – like “a weight” off my shoulders – having sent off my mail-in ballot this week. Until it’s completed and mailed, I feel a bit antsy, not sure why. Hooray!
I got my voter’s guide, followed by my sample ballot, which I’ve already completed. Straight up blue all the way. I’m hoping I receive my actual ballot before the end of the week.
I hope you do! Here’s a figurative toast to the exhilaration of finishing it!
YAY!!
Still part of the village my friends, just taking a break to give attention to family and mental health. I hope we can be here celebrating state, local and national victories on 11/6/2018. Thanks to all who are keeping this place alive and resisting/advocating in your off line lives.
See you on or before our victory party on 11/6/2018, CEB!
Remember when McConnevil ugly lied by saying the Dec 2017 tax cut would lower the deficit? Now he is “disturbed” by his party’s current exploding deficit (+17% since 2012. PBO cut it by two-thirds and GOP was still moaning). Today McC is giving it the same old routine about cutting SS and Medicare being the ‘only’ recourse. By the time climate change is eviscerating our species, GOP in Congress will be in the ground. If only we wouldn’t go on letting (the Saudis), big oil and empty tools like McConnevil decide the fate of our world.

Uh Oh…Trump tweeted today: “For the record, I have no financial interests in Saudi Arabia (or Russia, for that matter).”
Uh Oh…”Robert Maguire, the research director of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, has dug up a video of Trump bragging about wealthy Saudis who put money into his properties. āSaudi Arabia, I get along with all of them,ā Trump said during a 2015 rally. āThey buy apartments from me. They spend $40 million, $50 million. Am I supposed to dislike them? I like them very much.ā (Brad Reed, Raw story)
Uh Oh…”Additionally, documents obtained by the Washington Post earlier this month showed that Saudi money has been pouring into flagship Trump hotels that had been experiencing steep declines in revenues ever since Trump launched his political career three years ago.”
…Does it seem to you like he’s in the oven on about 350?
I think the oven temp is 666, and he is dancing with the devil š
Totally!
Also think Jared owned a building in NYC (which I think he had to sell) that was #666.
Love her.
Here’s to a better day for our country tomorrow, TODville! Goodnight.
He has the right to not forgive that awful, racist woman. I hope she suffers severe consequences for falsely accusing a child of sexual assault.
THIS THEAD:
I feel super nervous about the midterms and super nervous about this. I hope the gods of good will, good deeds and truth are on our side.
It won’t be a ‘nothingburger”
hello…we should be given notice….
Morning everyone. We need the Senate, too.
Wow! I’ve never known people to be chopping so many onions so early in the morning where I live. š Thanks, pkayden, for making me go look for the kleenex box before I’ve had my morning coffee.
But, seriously, this man is so amazing. My brother-in-law died of ALS. It is a horrible disease, and to see this man fighting so hard to speak his critical message and using his precious energy to go door to door is truly energizing for me to continue the fight to get our country back. I am passing this on to everyone I know, because as meta stated above, I am super nervous about this election.
And good morning everyone. I hope you all have a lovely and productive day today.
The animals in the Saudi Consulate took Khashoggi into another room and cut him up while he was still alive.
“The source said Tubaigy started to cut up Khashoggiās body on a table in the study while the journalist was still alive ā and the killing took seven minutes….Tubaigy put on earphones and listened to music as he” did so.” āThere was no attempt to interrogate him. They had come to kill him.ā
“The screaming stopped when Khashoggi was injected with an unknown substance.” (Getty, raw story)
What did this man possibly, possibly have done to deserve this death beyond all imagining?
The culture of base cruelty to human beings: We must end it right here in the U.S.
Re-unite the children and families being tortured by Trump. Get him out of office before he feels empowered to bump people off in our
own country. Clearly there are no limits to what psychopaths can do.
Let’s find out what Trump knew ahead of time:
The international plan and premeditation to lure Khashoggi into the Saudi Consulate and kill him.
have a good day everyone.
I was already feeling beyond enraged by the cruelty of the scumbag-in-chief and these republicans ….. and I felt that I could not have more intense feelings;
but this Mr. Kashoggi murder and mutilation has sent my mind and emotions to a place I do not know how to describe!!!
I do not know how his family and friends are dealing with this exceptional cruelty -beyond barbarism … and all for what?? because someone is writing criticism of you????
this is another example of how much evil some people are capable attaining

Good morning, TODville.
My sister lives in NC and reports today (an hour ago): “Just came back from Early Voting at the Board of Elections office. I am happy to say I was number 234 and the clerk said they have been packed all morning with early voters.” Go, Democrats! We got this!
WHAT WAS KHASHOGGI GOING TO EXPOSE?
Saudi – and imo likelyTrump – were extremely threatened by something Khashoggi had done or was about to do.
His petition to the court was denied. Poor thing!
LOVE LOVE LOVE this. Just the moment we all need right now.
Running behind, but had to thank you so much, Sheila, for putting a huge smile on my face this evening. I love his “who still think the earth is flat” comment. Scared my cat cuz I screamed so loud! Thanks for this post.
New post.

Giant Trump deficits accomplished…Check!
Oh very disturbing: McConnevil keeps saying the (+17% deficit since 2012) created by his own party is “very disturbing”. Yeh we’re damn disturbed. And disturbed about McConnell who is funded by Russia issuing the predictable threat to cut the SS and Medicare that Americans have earned. But we know their game and the Fact is Medicare + Medicaid = 4% of GDP.
FACT: “OVER HALF of the deficit comes from the Bush ($488 billion) and Trump tax cuts ($164 billion) – with military and war costs responsible for more than the remaining half.” Trump tax cuts predicted to cost $3 to $7 trillion over ten years and estimated $5.5 trillion in revenue loss. (CRFB). Corporate profits keep going up while corporate tax revenues have dropped by 31%. Kushner didn’t pay any taxes and guessing similar Trump.
…S.T.F.U. McConnevilovich.
