Good morning, TOD! Nerdy, there are not enough adjectives, in any language, to adequately express my gratitude to you for keeping our home open. THANK YOU!
REMINDER… What do black women want? To be taken seriously as a proven electoral force that must be wooed — if you want to win. https://t.co/mpiyXXLorI
Hi folks. Not sure if this will connect as I’m sitting on the balcony being bombarded by reggae music on one of those all-inclusive vacations I’d heard others talk about. The ‘ocean view’ is fantastic!
Here’s hoping, wherever you are’, you are having a good Sunday.
Thank you as always NerdyW for your continued commitment to our community. It’s much appreciated.
For you, Ms world traveler, this is a piddling trip to Runaway Bay! It’s been a lot of quiet (when you stay away from the noise like i have) fun though. 😊
Heeeey! That’s wonderful vc! What a great time for a nice vacation! 🌞🏝🏖🕶👙🧉I’m so happy for you!
Now spill the beans – where are you (and why am I not there with you)?
Hi D-ette, I’m basking in the Caribbean sunshine. Well, actually I’m really watching others bask while I do my quiet observer routine from the balcony. As for why you’re not here – I figured since you already had all the heat you needed I’d leave you behind to keep an eye on the snow I left in my driveway. 😏
We shall see – all depends on whether I feel so inspired over the next couple of days. Don’t forget DesertFlower never did teach me to swim. 😉
Come to think of it I haven’t seen any swimmers; just a lot of sunbathers and flesh-paraders, but to each her own.
He apologized for racist stop and frisk LAST WEEK. Like we’re supposed to just be like OKAY MIKE bc he’s trying to buy the nomination? There’s something so offensive to me about this!
If you wanted to run you should’ve been doing the reparative work for at least a year!
Just remember: A president who would betray his oath of office by defying the election laws and directing all staffers to defy lawful congressional subpoenas will also betray every promise about your health care, your job, your pension, your well-being, your basic rights.
There it is. President Trump giving the game away that he's using his presidency to support his struggling golf business, which he still clearly considers himself to be running. pic.twitter.com/IFYnSgSrTb
I see we've gotten to the Howard Hughes portion of the program. He's just barricaded in his room in bed watching Fox TV, phoning Murdoch and Hannity and tweeting. Laziest fraud EVER. https://t.co/BGGrqfsr5Z
Good afternoon back to you and everyone else, regardless of time zone. 🥰😜 We have friends coming around 4:15. Will have some ‘heavy’ hor d’ourves before going to our yearly awesome, fantastic blessing filled Thanksgiving service at 6:00. Back to our house for soup (Chicken Corn Chowder) and salad.
Your periodic reminder that GOP Sen. Ron Johnson and 7 other Republicans celebrated July 4, 2018 in Moscow. Now he's pushing Russian conspiracy theories on Ukraine the CIA and FBI have identified as Russian disinformation. https://t.co/ZAJftzGxfD
This week I’ve had enough. I’m Bringing it on to all campaigns. #DefendDemocracy. ATTACK THE RUSSIAN NARRATIVE. CALL OUT REPUBLICANS WHO SPOUT OUT THE RUSSIA . The old ways of politics are over. #GetShoutyhttps://t.co/Q0WqhaxGBj
They knew this was a problem. They didn’t care. Sure looks like conscienceness of guilt to me!
A confidential W.H. review of Trump's decision to place a hold on aid to Ukraine has turned up hundreds of documents that reveal extensive efforts to generate an after-the-fact justification for the decision and a debate over whether the delay was legal. https://t.co/c0PJTuP7ld
Cipollone, who wants Mulvaney’s job, launches review that finds Mulvaney up to his neck in Ukraine scandal, and the results leak. The WH is not a fun place to work right now. https://t.co/xlufItHBRe
“Trump had made the decision the prior month without an assessment of the reasoning or legal justification, according to 2 WH officials”-this rationale fails to acknowledge he made it with the intent to force Ukrainians to announce a baseless corruption investigation into Biden.
What's in the emails? I'd be willing to be there is more evidence Trump's Ukraine policy had little to do with our national security & Trump used taxpayer resources on a "domestic political errand" designed to help him win in 2020.

NEW: The House Intelligence Committee is in possession of audio and video recordings and photographs provided by Lev Parnas. The material includes audio, video, and photos that include Giuliani and Trump.
🚨BREAKING: In his DAMNING resignation letter, Navy Sec Spencer tells @realDonaldTrump that he can’t obey an order he believes violates his "sacred oath" to defend the Constitution.
“I no longer share the same understanding as (Trump)…in regards to…good order & discipline.🔥 https://t.co/iYO3cmWwzU
This shows the depth of the gerrymandering problem. “Almost 60 million Americans live in a state where one or both chambers of the legislature is controlled by the party that won fewer statewide votes in the 2018 election.” Time to end this. https://t.co/OqdsG3wuKT
How did the Russian agents spread the internal information they stole from Democrats? They offered it up to political operatives and bloggers, who then farmed it out to mainstream journalists https://t.co/jYkuWWDHfMpic.twitter.com/KcjwkZBN7x
So the official story is Navy Secretary Spencer was fired for secretly promising Trump to do exactly what Trump wanted? Does that make any sense at all?
The steady decline in morale among members of the armed services, top to bottom, is playing out right in front of our eyes. This story is only the latest cause.
An interesting find by @jonallendc: When Sens. John Kennedy and Mike Crapo met with Hungarian President Orban in March, they stopped off in Ukraine, congressional travel records show. https://t.co/2q98Q3nl2Z
1/ Speaking of that, the idea that *anyone* inside the Trump Admin is "the Resistance" or "the Steady State" or ANYTHING other than complicit in his corruption, illegality, and overall fuckery is a risible lie.
Hoping that happens here. We are a nation that has taken so much for granted. It can all go away so quickly. Some already has.

I do not think that the GOP will or give up power….look what happens in the states…the GOP loses and then try to diminish the power of the incoming Dems…i am worried that they may refuse to to turn power over to a Democratic President…,..The peaceful transfer of power…
Trump and his minions are lawless…they defy the constitution at will…even those who know better…succumb to the lawaless ness…
the most recent is Trump’s firing the Sec of the Navy…
although the Sec did go out with defiance.. bravo to him…
Gaslighting: psychological manipulation seeking to sow seeds of doubt, makes victims question their own memory, perception, and sanity. It uses persistent denial, misdirection, contradiction, and lying. It attempts to destabilize the victim and delegitimize the victim's belief. https://t.co/5jVNUDu90j
Eight years. No scandal. No sexual assault. No nepotism. No racism. No fascism. No white supremacy. No treason. No abuse of power. No quid pro quo. No bribery. No extortion. No murder cover-ups. Just grace, love, and class personified. I literally forgot what it felt like.
President of the United States’ personal lawyer successfully sought out fugitive oligarch Firtash—with reported ties to Putin—for dirt on Biden in exchange for trying to get Firtash off hook with Barr.

He appears to be committing impeachable crimes in the middle of an impeachment. I understand the Democratic desire to keep this thing narrow, but he’s making it pretty close to impossible.
Reminder: A federal judge has said she will rule by the end of the day on whether former White House counsel Donald McGahn must testify before Congress.
Rep. Dina Titus of Nevada endorses @JoeBiden on @NewDay a major endorsement so far in this race. She's the first sitting member of congress from an early state to endorse.

I think we're supposed to believe that Trump's recent and sudden trip to a hospital for two hours and his decision to barricade himself in the residence are a coincidence. #IMPEACH
Do yourself a favor and read this. It will lift your heart, soul and mind.
I've read this story three times, and I think I'll read it again. I doubt I'm the only one who thirsts to see this degree of thoughtfulness in our country's leadership again.

Envious of you, Sis! Enjoy that view! To which country are you decamped; inquiring minds want to know???

As for why you’re not here – I figured since you already had all the heat you needed I’d leave you behind to keep an eye on the snow I left in my driveway. 😏
Haha! So there are like 15 countries in the Caribbean. Are you on land or a boat? Bond, Jane Bond. 😎
😉 I was on land in Runaway Bay, but now I’ve run away back home and am starting my after-vacation recovery.
Ah, so you ARE a female James Bond! 😁
😀
Hey international sis, you did make the trip, good for you. Enjoy it the best way you can. Bring back pictures. ❤
Yea, I found a deal. I like what I see tho I haven’t gone into the sea, or any of the pools for that matter. Pictures? What’s that?
I figure all went well with your shoulder as you’re here sending messages?
My elbow was first. Dip your feet in a pool somewhere girl!
We shall see – all depends on whether I feel so inspired over the next couple of days. Don’t forget DesertFlower never did teach me to swim. 😉

VC, have a great time.
TY, Terri. It’s nearing thé endroit but ital
Oops, I was typing English on the French keyboard and didn’t realize it.
Thanks Terri. It’s almost over but it has been both restful and fun.
Glad that it’s been both restful and fun. Enjoy the rest of your time there and have a safe trip back.

Yes. ALL of them! This is more for the American people to heed, not those criminals
The nation just blinks.

Thank you, Jesus, for Malcolm Nance. From his lips to the ears of every campaign. Keep preaching 🔥🔥🔥, sir.
They knew this was a problem. They didn’t care. Sure looks like conscienceness of guilt to me!
After the fact CYA’s….sounds like OBSTRUCTION.
What a garbage pit
The moral in the military must be hitting a new low.

Lordy, there are tapes. 🙂

Hoping that happens here. We are a nation that has taken so much for granted. It can all go away so quickly. Some already has.
We cannot wait until election day and certainly not until the inauguration.
Has anyone in TOD Fam heard from Linda (Citizen Global)? Could’ve missed her posts? Miss her comments. 💞
I feel as though we have heard from her, relatively recently. I love her comments, too!
Haven’t seen any posts from her and hope she is ok.
I thought I saw one the other day
Thanks so much! Hoping she’s doing well. 💞
This song was as important in 1971 as it is in 2019. Glad I found this video.
Goodnight TOD
