I just said, "I just want to get in my housecoat and drink red wine while switching back and forth between @CNN and @MSNBC depending on who is making fun of Trump more."
I'm really concerned about myself…I've never said "housecoat" in my life.
Yeah, that’s right. Donald Trump, who’s the subject of two criminal investigations just appointed an actin’ Attorney General who’s under, surprise, surprise, a criminal investigation.
Looks like all the crooks are either in jail or the Trump administration.
The White House has done more to punish Jim Acosta for gently brushing aside an intern, than they've done to punish Saudi Arabia for torturing a journalist and chopping his body up into little pieces with a bone saw. 🤷♂️

The appointment of Whitaker as Acting AG, someone with a history of attacks on Mueller, is a transparent effort to interfere with the impartial administration of justice.

Hi Meta. Responding to your tweet on twitter Mary asked if maybe Pete would do a book of pics (like these?) with funds going to help wounded vets, so I directed it to @PeteSouza. Maybe we can retweet it a couple of times in the hopes it lands beneath Pete’s eyes. We can’t have too many ‘picture’ books of Pres O! 😉
Dear @PeteSouza, is this a possibility? You can be sure enough of us (despite already having 'Intimate Portrait', ' The Rise of BO' and picking up 'Shade' 4 Xmas) would buy this one too. I also like the idea of funds supporting wounded vets. What say you? https://t.co/rQUZiIhu1R

Trumputin trying to play god on CA forest fires, fear-mongering and threatening “No more federal payments”.
No quick answer on forest fires. Controlled burning is the answer for thousands of years of fuel build up. But cutting down forests is not. The Brazil president-elect Bolsonaro wants to privatize and bulldoze the Amazon for profit – yes eviscerate the LUNGS of the world! We need our forests for infinite reasons. In CA: Without them you get deadly mudslides for one thing.

Fallout of Dicktraitor’s plan to pull out of U.S. Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty with Russia:
Macron today “We need a Europe which defends itself better alone, without just depending on the United States, in a more sovereign matter.”
In response little Russian tweeted: “President Macron of France has just suggested that Europe build its own military in order to protect itself from the U.S., China and Russia. Very insulting, but perhaps Europe should first pay its fair share of NATO, which the U.S. subsidizes greatly!”
:-Trump wants to leave Europe open game for Russia but doesn’t want it to defend itself. Yeh all the iffy around a Putin meeting…what are
the odds.
And apparently Macron and possibly Merkel both ventured out for similar remembrances … close to where he said he couldn’t go for “logistical reasons” and r-a-i-n … so he’s lying again. He’s a total embarrassment to our country and not deserving of being anybody’s commander in chief.
Today, I joined our delegation of Canadian veterans at Vimy Ridge — to thank them for their service and to pay tribute to those who made the ultimate sacrifice in the name of our freedom.

So Friday that racist lying bigot is going to stand before the press and accused President Obama of letting down the Military. He claim to care about the military,but he refuse to go visit our troops over seas, and now he decide not to go visit the WW1 US military cemetery.
His helicopter was NOT Grounded. They fly in far worse weather. He lied as usual to get out of doing something he has no interest in. He is there to visit Putin and nothing more. He doesn’t care about Vets.

Orange Satan might love good or bad stories about him and is NEVER embarrassed as long as he sucks up all the oxygen in the world. His sycophants will eventually get embarrassed from the bad press trying to defend the indefensible. Keep talking about how worthless he is, what a liar he is, fact check is ass, call him out in real time. Once his followers get tired of him and they are, he will go down in flames.
He feels no patriotism personally, and so he has no respect for those brave Americans or the soldiers of WWI from our Allied countries. It was just something on his calendar, to get him out of D.C., where – coincidentally – it was possibly going to rain.

I’m balling like a baby! I love and miss her so much:) She is so genuine and such an inspiration to so many. Much love to our Forever FLOTUS:)
From all I have been able to calculate, in the end, Ds will have this Senate Seat.
LMAO.
