Strikes me we should stop asking GOP lawmakers what they *think* of Trump’s moves, only what they will *do* – or believe they should do – in response. As the “he will learn a lesson” comments showed, votes are all that matter.
Good evening, friends. Bringing a long post over I did just before this new thread. Thanks, NW, for keeping our doors open. We love you.
Okay friends, Have to share my experience from an hour ago of calling Lamar Alexander’s office (local). Will try my best to keep it short, but that may be impossible.
I called about the DOJ issue from the past two days. Had to hold for a couple minutes. Keith came on (Yes, we are on first name basis!). I gave him my initial message though do not remember specifically what was said, but ended it with the prediction that as of February 12, 4:35, I predict we will not have an election. (I meant a general election in November.) He smarted off with “Well, we are having elections today……..” It went downhill from there. I cursed and he yelled and cursed back at me. He said he would give the Senator my message. In 5 or 6 minutes, my phone rang and it was Keith calling me back to apologize. I “sort of” apologized too, then we had a fairly long conversation. I had Twitter open in front of me so able to quickly take things from there to make my points. Two different times after I hit him hard with truth and facts and then said, “You know that everything I have said to you is true and you can’t sit in your office in downtown Knoxville and deny ONE thing I have said.” Crickets, Crickets two different times. At one point he said he couldn’t give his personal opinion. I pointed out that everything that happens and the further we headlong into living in a full blown fascist and authoritarian country, it is going to affect you and your loved ones just like it does me and everyone else. You think because you are a Republican and who you work for will make things “okay” for you…….that you won’t be affected?! I am leaving out a lot of things, but this gives you the gist of how the call went.
When Keith first began apologizing, he mentioned how difficult these last two weeks have been and he just finally snapped and it happened to be at me. I affirmed that I was sure it has been a difficult two weeks, but asked what does he expect when he works for and is defending a senator with no backbone, character or integrity and puts party over our country. I didn’t say it, but thought “Gee, let me get out my little violin and have a pity party for you, Keith.”
Yep. One of the times when I let loose a string of facts on him was when I ended it by saying I am betting I am much more informed than you are………that I know a lot more details on what this dictator is doing every day than you do, Keith… …..that was another crickets moment. I almost felt sorry for him. Well, no, maybe not. 😳😩😂

Celebrating President Abraham Lincoln’s birthday today. My family is from Springfield, Illinois so it was very humbling for me to be sworn-in with the Lincoln Bible as the 14th Librarian of Congress in 2016. pic.twitter.com/WEkCZNSOTS
Yes! And Michelle Obama held it with gloved hands. Doris Kerns Goodman remarked that she needed to wear gloves as a protection for the Bible.
I specifically remember that since when I got home after going to the inauguration someone in a group I meet weekly with started talking about how Obama swore in on the Koran. She had watched Fox News. I had taped C-Span and watched it again on there before going to my meeting and the story about Lincoln’s Bible was told there.
So we have now made it almost 24 hours since the NH election and I have managed to turn off any television punditry. It feels good. I still support the candidate that I feel has earned my vote over a lifetime of public service.
if newspaper editorial pages aren't going to demand Trump resign for dismantling the DOJ and turning Barr into his consigliere, they're never gonna get the nerve to call for Trump's ouster.
reminder: 100+ newspapers demanded Bill Clinton resign for lying about an affair
TOD family, I’m spitting lighting bolts I;m so angry! Now Tom Steyer has an ad with the Fire Up/Ready to Go lady in SC. Has he or Bloomberg been to your ‘hood? Are we so gullible they they can just throw money at us and we fall for the okeydoke? WAKE UP BLACK FOLKS https://t.co/XkCW3FFxHU?amp=1
I didn’t know that. That bothers me, too and I’m not AA. What the hell is wrong with these people?? The ONLY person who could slightly get away with that, would be Joe Biden. Everyone else. No. Hell no.Just no. I agree with you, Gail. 100%
Thanks my Cheri ❤
Please point out these dubious tricks to you friends & co-workers when they say something favorable about either of these. Dazzling people with money & bullschit. Just imagine what they would do in the WH?

I don't care what John Kelly thinks. He disqualified any opinion he'll ever have when, before the separation policy, he said stealing children from their parents would be a good way to "deter" other families. He also likely knows things about Trump's corruption he isn't sharing.
Are we supposed to give this guy a parade for doing now what he should have done ages ago? I DON’T THINK SO!
Friendly reminder that John Kelly proudly worked for a traitor, defended wife beater Rob Porter, lied about Congresswoman Frederica Wilson, and agreed with caging children.
I wish he had at least half the balls of Marie Yovanovitch, Fiona Hill, Sally Yates, or Stormy Daniels.

Once again, in this Democratic primary, I wish I had the kind of money that I could donate to a candidate to keep them in the race.
I wish I could write a check for VP Joe Biden. He needs to pay the staff and have an operating campaign structure.
I do not know who are VP’s prominent supporters, (influencers), who can encourage people to donate. I feel that VP needs to make another direct plea for donations which is from his heart (no edited video).
For anyone else who supports Joe Biden, could we at least send out positive messages to encourage him, his staff and supporter to keep focused on the race?
One person has also advised that if you are on Facebook, post encouraging and factual information about why you support VP. Apparently, most people get their news from Facebook
Good morning. I also support VP Biden, but they contact me at least 3 times daily, even after I may have given the day before. Must ignore most emails/texts.
Hi, Linda! I, too, am back to supporting Biden. Have already donated twice this week; however, since I’ve now committed to NO discretionary spending (not going to continue boosting minus 45’s economy), and have a few extra pennies, I’m going to make another donation today in your honor.
Thanks for all you do and for all of your thoughtful contributions in this village.
Oh God! Thank you very much! Anything you can spare helps.
For millions like me, this election is for survival. I have no doubt that in the decisions that matter most, VP will come through for the marginalized or the people who need his help most. He will not need to be reminded or prompted to know the people who need his help.
Done! I actually made two donations, one in your honor and the other is in memory of my Grandmother who would have been 132 on yesterday. As a kid, I thought it was so neat that she shared the day with Abe Lincoln.
He needs to make his money work… and now out. This is not ok. This is Bloomberg’s NYC.
To all you defending Bloomberg, look Tyquan in the face and tell him to just “get over” what happened to him, that he was just collateral damage in a righteous crusade, that the violation of his rights, body and humanity are things you can live with. HE WAS JUST A CHILD!!!! pic.twitter.com/9yVcRlOwUb
This needs to be shared with everyone. Especially our representatives that were chosen by the people to work for THEM, not this fraud administration!! Anyone with a twitter account should work to make it so. This is important!!
YES! Thanks JER for posting this. I need someone like Pete to say “Relax”. He has the right connections.
This Bloomberg guy is making me see red! I see that he has now thrown his money at the black General Contractors and black State politicians and they are singing his praises. They have forgotten who he really is. But Pete has said “Relac People” and I’m going to chill and keep working for VP Joe. 🙂

Please. Spare us WaPo describing Trump as “simmering with rage”.
I don’t care what mood he is in, real or pretend.
He feels small.
So small he has to control others, work himself into a lather, and stamp his little feet. Pls don’t quake in your boots. The tirade will end the millisecond after he has verbally abused someone or something = classic abuser behavior. He feels better afterwards. But the episodes get closer and closer together when they’re reinforced. Trump has lots of daddies and protectors like Barr and Putin to help him feel better because he’s a broken little man. Now he may feel left out of the spotlight by Iowa and NH and the voting process. Eh if he needs a good simmering…let’s show him who is simmering out here!
Senator Blumenthal to O’Donnell:
“Lawrence it is almost impossible to exaggerate the crisis that we face here.
“Simmering rage” from a President who is unleashed and untethered to the law. Joe
Scarborough…asked if the president can investigate any journalist, could he arrest us tomorrow? And the truth is every American is potentially in danger of this kind of retribution and revenge if the president uses the justice system as a tool of political or personal vengeance. And that kind of crisis is deeply dangerous. It’s ugly, it violates the ethos of the department of justice for the AG to be the President’s political henchman.”
CIC.Mentally.Unfit.
Bloomenthal to O’Donnell:
“Barr should resign because he is acting as Trump’s political operative.”
GOP keeps showing how they’d happily take out American democracy.
Hey maybe they’ll get to be oligarchs like the kool Russian oligarchs in Putin’s Mafia state…visions of sugarplums and oligarchic theocratic U.S. government run by the super rich?
-Btw republicans are complicit, not just “spineless”.
Excellent thread. I could hear Denzel narrating like DeNiro in The Irishman. Man, turn this into a movie: Eyes will be opened, pearls clutched, Oscars flying, hearings will be called, funding granted… nah, that ain’t gonna happen. But at least they’ll know.

Imo we are there!
We cannot “wait until the ballot box”. Things are moving much too fast for that!
One of the big reasons given by Dems for embarking on the impeachment process was the looming election. What changed? Um the entire future/death of democracy (globally) is in our hands.
We need Pelosi and Nadler to act asap in response to Barr-Trump-Stone’s blatant evisceration of the rule of law.
Waiting for the election = too much time for Trump/Bannon/Miller/Koch/Putin et al to trash us way beyond fixing.
Imo we cannot wait until March 31 for Barr to piss around,
lie, insult and obfuscate at his hearing in Congress = Time is of the essence like never before.
Trump crossed the line. Barr crossed the line. Imo we must respond right away. We cannot be TIMID any more. Mueller went 2 easy on Trump and now the Putin boys are emboldened. BARR is the DOJ lynchpin, the key between us and Autocracy. Imo Barr would freak out and back down as he did before.
-Barr has already shown he doesn’t want a criminal record on the books.
e.g. Why weren’t those who avoided subpoenas arrested?
(Like the Trumputin party) we must go on the offensive, run rings around them, put them back on their heels and on the defensive all the way to the election. This is not the time to be timid or buy reports about his “simmering”. Let us remember what GOP did to Susan McDougall:
In 1996 Ms. McDougal was shackled and taken away for 2 years for lying in the Clinton trial. And she spent some of that time in solitary.
Thank you @JoeNBC for expressing how I feel about @JoeBiden. I have spoken often of how he helped me to deal with my loss, as only a person like him could understand. Whatever happens, I am one of the lucky ones who has been touched by his decency. https://t.co/6TNghnRCfO

The degree to which Michael Bloomberg is using his fortune to fundamentally alter & manipulate U.S. politics to his personal advantage extends way beyond ads. I've worked against him, covered him as a journalist & worked with his top aides. Here’s their playbook: (1/17)
BREAKING: The US Senate just voted 55-45 to limit Trump’s military authority against Iran. Great. Now limit Trump’s military authority against every other country in the world.
This is 100% true. You can take it to the bank. Dementia is dominating everything w/ Trump now. What’s sickening are his enablers thinking Hope Hicks can buy them more time. He needs to be removed & receive neurological evaluation & caregiver assistance that eases his decline. https://t.co/bzXk88AXAt

Good Evening TODVille.
Good evening!
Greetings, TOD! ❤️
Thank you, Nerdy. Trevor is so right on this.
Good evening, friends. Bringing a long post over I did just before this new thread. Thanks, NW, for keeping our doors open. We love you.
Okay friends, Have to share my experience from an hour ago of calling Lamar Alexander’s office (local). Will try my best to keep it short, but that may be impossible.
I called about the DOJ issue from the past two days. Had to hold for a couple minutes. Keith came on (Yes, we are on first name basis!). I gave him my initial message though do not remember specifically what was said, but ended it with the prediction that as of February 12, 4:35, I predict we will not have an election. (I meant a general election in November.) He smarted off with “Well, we are having elections today……..” It went downhill from there. I cursed and he yelled and cursed back at me. He said he would give the Senator my message. In 5 or 6 minutes, my phone rang and it was Keith calling me back to apologize. I “sort of” apologized too, then we had a fairly long conversation. I had Twitter open in front of me so able to quickly take things from there to make my points. Two different times after I hit him hard with truth and facts and then said, “You know that everything I have said to you is true and you can’t sit in your office in downtown Knoxville and deny ONE thing I have said.” Crickets, Crickets two different times. At one point he said he couldn’t give his personal opinion. I pointed out that everything that happens and the further we headlong into living in a full blown fascist and authoritarian country, it is going to affect you and your loved ones just like it does me and everyone else. You think because you are a Republican and who you work for will make things “okay” for you…….that you won’t be affected?! I am leaving out a lot of things, but this gives you the gist of how the call went.
Thank you for doing what we all need to be doing.
Seems like cocktails will be in order tonight
When Keith first began apologizing, he mentioned how difficult these last two weeks have been and he just finally snapped and it happened to be at me. I affirmed that I was sure it has been a difficult two weeks, but asked what does he expect when he works for and is defending a senator with no backbone, character or integrity and puts party over our country. I didn’t say it, but thought “Gee, let me get out my little violin and have a pity party for you, Keith.”
He did that because he knows you’re right. That is all. Going to get harder and harder to ignore for him. You did good, girl:) keep after them
Yep. One of the times when I let loose a string of facts on him was when I ended it by saying I am betting I am much more informed than you are………that I know a lot more details on what this dictator is doing every day than you do, Keith… …..that was another crickets moment. I almost felt sorry for him. Well, no, maybe not. 😳😩😂
Don’t feel sorry for him. I’d start in on his moral compass and values next though…. but that’s me:)
😍😍😍Yay Taylor!
She is soooooo adorable!
Loved initial Instagram post. One determined young lady, taking no nonsense from anyone. Snap! 💞
Didn’t President Obama get sworn in with Lincoln’s bible
Yes! And Michelle Obama held it with gloved hands. Doris Kerns Goodman remarked that she needed to wear gloves as a protection for the Bible.
I specifically remember that since when I got home after going to the inauguration someone in a group I meet weekly with started talking about how Obama swore in on the Koran. She had watched Fox News. I had taped C-Span and watched it again on there before going to my meeting and the story about Lincoln’s Bible was told there.
I believe he did for both inaugurations.
So we have now made it almost 24 hours since the NH election and I have managed to turn off any television punditry. It feels good. I still support the candidate that I feel has earned my vote over a lifetime of public service.
Me too. Not wat hung any talking heads. Not Rachel. Not LOD… none of them
Not watching. Why does my phone make up stupid shit? I can do that all by myself without any help from my damn phone!! 😂😂

Oh, absolutely!
I am really surprised at how quickly people seem to forget what the core issues are and are quick to jump on the bandwagon.
I have a feeling that some folks who doesn’t follow politics could mistake the Bloomberg ad with PBO as an endorsement for Bloomberg by PBO.
Which is up to us on social media to call it out. Call the local black radio station, write to the black newspaper. It’s “we” who we’re waiting for!
Much deserved
