Good morning TOD family. Nerdy Wonka we are all so thankful for you keeping this blog and family together. I am so thankful for all who come to this site. Especially our information finders.
Two unofficial U.S. operatives—who pumped hundreds of thousands into Republican campaigns and dined with Trump—gathered repeatedly with top officials in Ukraine and set up meetings for Rudy Giuliani in a bid to help win the 2020 election, BuzzFeed reports. https://t.co/jl7aaWJDuG
FBI Director Chris Wray: FBI has made about 100 domestic terrorism arrests this year—more than last year. A majority of the suspects are motivated by some version of white supremacy, he says.
As if I needed another reason to discount this crazy person. Hawaii, REALLY!!???
A current House representative and former city councilperson of a midsized city telling a current Senator and former attorney general of the largest state in the union she isn't qualified to be President is… definitely something. https://t.co/W8boqhRxhV
I did, thanks! A couple of friends took me out for dinner which was wonderful. Sunday, Tally, Purpleshoesla, GGail and jojocat took me out for brunch and we had a fantastic time. I feel very, very blessed.
Hey everyone, the guy who said Obama was from Kenya, the guy who had to pay 25 MILLION dollars to settle a FRAUD lawsuit for his FAKE university, the guy who said 3 million “illegals” voted and his inauguration was the largest in history…that guy doesn’t make things up. https://t.co/oNUohN8FgD
There was a moment a few weeks ago that went unnoticed.
Speaking about Special Counsel Mueller :
Trump murmured, “He is conflicted…..”
And imo therein lies Trump’s opportunity.
Mr. Mueller may well be conflicted by a career of honoring past presidents,
a career of dutifully doing following military orders and decisions by his department bosses.
Well he is a private citizen now. That was part of the Katyal supreme counsel co-design.
What’s needed now is for Mueller to ignore ALL intimidation.
We need Mueller to wear that Superman cape (Joy said it in passing).
Mr. Mueller are you listening?
The window is fogging over. You can literally save the United States, the world, the planet, and
our future as a species. Tomorrow.

Oh goodie! Another lobbyist for the swamp he was gonna drain
BREAKING: US Army Sec. Mark Esper, a former defense industry executive, has been confirmed as the next US Defense secretary, ending 7 months of instability atop Pentagon. https://t.co/fn0ljeFOiP
Most food stamp benefits go to low-income white people, but the Trump administration will also be cutting food assistance for low-income veterans. 1.4 million low-income vets receive food stamps. Additionally, millions of poor senior citizens receive SNAP benefits. 4.8 million seniors are on SNAP. SNAP also helps 20 million children a month eat.
Republicans aren’t eliminating fraud waste and abuse. They are harming the elderly, disabled, and children.
The Trump tax cuts for the wealthy haven’t paid for themselves, so kids in America will go hungry because corporations were given a tax cut.
BREAKING: Trump has issued yet another massive regulatory attack on Food Stamps, again sidestepping Congress to force cuts by fiat—since he didn’t get his way in the Farm Bill last year.
More than 3 million people stand to lose food assistance.
Confirmed: Robert Mueller has asked that his longtime right-hand aide Aaron Zebley to be sworn in as a witness during Wednesday’s hearing with the House Judiciary Committee. Dems are weighing the request which has alarmed GOP.
After a last minute request from Mueller's team, Aaron Zebley will sit alongside Mueller at tomorrow’s Judiciary Cmte hearing as his counsel, according to a Judiciary spox. The committee is not updating its guidance to include Zebley as a witness. (W/ @mikememoli)
I wonder if anyone will point out tomorrow that the standard of proof for impeachment is not beyond a reasonable doubt and that one can be impeached for having been compromised by a foreign power by a preponderance of the evidence
Trump suing NYAG to stop the release of his taxes. What the hell is in those F*****G TAXES? My guess? The same Tax fraud and tax scheme he and his shady Judge sister participanted in which forced her to quit early for! pic.twitter.com/8QrUO8acOG
Never forget that Ilhan Omar was one of co-sponsors of the 9/11 Victim Compensation Fund, while Mitch McConnell and Rand Paul blocked the bill repeatedly befofe they lost the battle.
Here are a couple of articles backed by new research that are worth taking a look at: A new study on the Medicaid expansion my administration fought for under the Affordable Care Act—and how these policy decisions affect lives in real terms: https://t.co/Lj4g7lGFnq
Exactly. But they couldn’t stand the thought of a strong Democratic woman. I say we make them sorry for that.
@AdamParkhomenko I just came across this in my pics. Always a good reminder, especially ramping up to Mueller Testimony Wednesday. The Election of The United States of America was infiltrated & influenced by Russian’s at the request of Trump. HILLARY was our rightful President.🇺🇸 pic.twitter.com/LFLoMLrSet
"The lack of racial and gender diversity on the bench is driven by a host of factors — including the underrepresentation of women and people of color in leadership positions within the law, implicit and explicit biases." https://t.co/PPbAw6Z0HN
At Turning Point USA, Trump did in public what has long been done in private—teaching racism & fear to youth. He & his enablers aren’t just running for 2020. They’re working for generational change in policy & principles.

ARTICLE 640: That said Donald Trump, President of the United States, unmindful of the high duties of his office, and his oath, did, in a public speech, endeavor to impair and destroy the regard and respect of the good people of the United States towards their lawful elections. https://t.co/lfRw8tZ7od

My God, what an inhumane travesty. This country will suffer for these horrific transgressions against CHILDREN.
One of the reasons they did that is because the children would cry, and the older kids figured out that when they cried the guards got angry. So the best thing they could do was to protect these children. It was protecting all of them. pic.twitter.com/T5pyG85LzC
Uniform clothing for #FlintKids is pouring in. Our whole third row is full of packages. I’m still collecting uniforms for kids here, they go back in 3 weeks. Children’s Place has uniforms 60% off and you can get a full uniform for about $13 and send it right to me. pic.twitter.com/GxNfW6ilkB
I bet the TRMS staff that no one would put the fact that Bijan Kian was a Trump Transition official in their headline about his felony convictions today.
Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg revealed that she traveled with retired Justice John Paul Stevens "in the last week of his life" to Lisbon, Portugal, for a conference where the two justices attended meetings and visited museums, vineyards and castles https://t.co/6B7nt2RlZB
It turns out that 10 million is the urban population of Afghanistan. Trump may be relying on an actual plan drawn up by some genocidal maniac that calls for the destruction of that nation in order to “save” it. This deserves further serious investigation. https://t.co/8KQvW5KkYF
So, here it is. If you follow me on here, if you know me in real life, then you know I'm obsessed with the year 1619 & how the start of slavery in America has shaped everything in our society. So, in Feb. I pitched to @NYTmag a project to examine, in this 400th year, the legacy.
To anyone out there who feels like the world is stacked against them, know that I'm rooting for you to succeed and reach your full potential. pic.twitter.com/vXlKnFhbZz
Economist Raj Chetty is not only identifying the decline in opportunity we’ve seen in recent decades—but trying to reverse it. Inequality, like many problems we face, is as vast as it is complex. But this article left me a little more hopeful: https://t.co/CcsXpVVfkP

This is a pivotal moment in our nation’s history, and I believe President Trump presents an existential threat to our democracy. I am, therefore, calling for the immediate opening of an impeachment inquiry of President Donald Trump. Watch my full statement below. pic.twitter.com/3PfEt0HCZN

How many millions will you terrorize, torture and murder, Don, in order to try and distract the few remaining #WhiteSupremacists who support you that you aren't a TRAITOR & absolutely SHITTY Biz dude?
Hope you realize when you're whimpering to #Putin you're being recorded.
Mueller destroys the president's "No collusion, no obstruction" mantra right out of the gate.Nadler asks, did you totally exonerate the president. Answer: No.
Robert Mueller: "Over the course of my career, I have seen a number of challenges to our democracy. The Russia government's effort to interfere in our election is among the most serious…This deserves the attention of every American." https://t.co/CXfCvYspNV#MuellerHearingspic.twitter.com/bmezST2GY8

In case you missed Stephen Miller’s uncle on RM last night. Worth reading. Perfect ‘I got mine, Eff you!’ Story. In other words, perfectly Republican

Look who’s got his tighty whities in a wad:)
Sweet 🤣. Suck it Gym Jordan.
That SOB should be in JAIL right now, not Congress!
And he’s stupid enough to use a sports reference, reminding everybody about the Gym Jordan sh*t.

Someone should
OH YEAH! I’m with them!!
AMEN TO THAT…

Excellent work!!
Dancing-With-Underage-Girls remembers Puerto Rico:
“I owned the Miss Universe contests and pageants, and we had them in Puerto Rico twice.
And I’ll tell you, we had tremendous successes. In fact, they said literally 100 percent — this never happens — almost — I think it was close to 100 — but 100 percent of the island itself was watching. They liked those pageants.’

That’s the backside of Bitch McConnell walking right past Jon Stewart without a word
Mitch McConnell is a nasty MF, forgive my language please.
Exactly. But they couldn’t stand the thought of a strong Democratic woman. I say we make them sorry for that.
This makes me livid on so many levels. The Electoral College screwed up ROYALLY. I would bet every penny I have that there were bribes.
Count on it
Perfect

Nerdy, Thank you so much for posting Beating The Odds Summit with FL Michelle Obama.
Greetings, TOD!
My God, what an inhumane travesty. This country will suffer for these horrific transgressions against CHILDREN.
How about going away, you damn soulless creature. The Big House far, far away. 😏

This is how one in the media gives no play whatsoever to stories about the Orange Shitgibbon. You go madame newscaster!
