We are a group of like-minded people that gather to discuss a host of topics from weight loss, to current events. Our thread celebrates liberal diversity, welcomes new friends, and respects all opinions. We count everything from calories to points but, we never count our chickens before they've hatched!

Just reviewing the morning news and shaking my head. Probably due to what is now the norm because of A-hole and his campaign/cronies/family/influence the world has forever changed.
Britain is royally pissed with us because "we" leaked some vital information about the investigation into the bombing in Manchester. Would this leaking have occurred before it became the 'norm' for leaking to become more important than protecting vital information or integrity?
In Montana some ridiculous Republican political candidate decided to strike out and "body slam" as well as verbally attack a reporter because he was fed-up with coverage. Since he was foolish enough to do this in front of several Fox News reporters the story may not go in his favor! But now it's okay to physically beat up/abuse/attack the press.
That's just today's news... tomorrow there will something different. I really hate that 'life as we knew it' seems to be heading down a sewer hole every time you hear a new story (healthcare, EPA, FDA, education, etc., etc.,etc)
Okay... on that cheery note... I turn this over to some gentle music and puppy videos!!

I am not surprised over the right's reaction to Colbert not being fired. Outraged! Pearl clutching gasps! Come on people, haven't you heard your heros on Faux News and the false and hateful things coming from Limbaugh, Coulter and other fanatics? Tit for tat. I'm delighted that Colbert is vindicated. If those comments were direct to Hillary or Obama they would be in full agreement and waving a great big thumb's up flag.

I think the one group of people the Trumpettes would not want to pizz off these days would be reporters...LOL..They seem to be the only ones willing to go out on a limb to get straight honest answers & they dig deep, hard & long for those answers...you assault one,you basically assault them all...I agree the world seems turned upside down & the damage that is being done everyday by the slashing JA & his cohorts are doing to this country is just mind boggling. The stupidity of the statements coming out of this cabinet is WTH everytime one of them opens their mouth. You tell the kid who comes to school hungry everyday, that poverty is a state of mind, or the Vet living on the street because of PTS that poverty is a state of mind or a couple living in their car because of job loss & inability to find suitable housing that poverty is a state of mind. And Betsy DeVos saying it's ok to discriminate against the gay community concerning private schools even when they are receiving federal funding.,.the slime just continues to ooze out of the WH ....😝

I was shocked that the Republican candidate in Montana that body slammed the reporter was not arrested on the spot. You have multiple eye witnesses backing up the reporters story. We should have seen a mug shot this morning. If I called the cops because my husband did that to me he would have been hauled off in handcuffs but apparently not in MT.
Listening to Tweety slam Nato nations in his opening speech. Shut up already.

And I don't know where the NYT got those pictures from but if you ask me the should not have published them. What was the point? Did people not investigating the case really need to see them? No.

Hello everyone! Joining in on the shaking my head in disgust that every time I think this administration can't do anything worse, they prove me wrong. Tweety just can't keep his big mouth shut and has to brag to all around where our nuclear subs are, what covert classified information he has, etc. He thinks this is his own personal game, and we are all just pieces to be moved around the board. It is truly disgusting. I'm glad to be back instead of spending my days at the hospital, but honestly I was probably better off when I really didn't know what was going on in the world because it just makes me feel sick to my stomach now that I'm hearing news again. A little late to the coffee klatch today, because took my mom for an eye injection this morning; but, now to settle into a routine until the next time our roller coaster decides to take a plunge.

Interesting. I didn't see any sign of 'the vapors' when the JA did all that disgusting bragging about sexually assaulting women. Oh, that's right. It's normal for men to sexually assault women. Boys will be boys.

I can't watch it. He's such an ass wipe. He doesn't belong at the grownup table. He doesn't even belong at the dog bowl on the floor. He needs to be in a rubber room. Do they still have those?

The person JA pushed aside is from a country that will be joining NATO in June. This Leader is also a guy Putin dislikes ALOT, so guess JA was trying to impress his buddy Putin by shoving aside a guy Putin is against. . There's always a Russian connection, isn't there, in every action JA takes. I hope this tape plays on 24/7 cycle on every place available!...

"So between the deer, the bunnies, the humming birds and the blue birds the yard feels like a Disney Movie. I expect the animals to be making me a ball gown any min. now."
LOL!
Anne, I'd love to hang out in your yard. It sounds like my type of place. We have garter snakes around here. Braveheart gets one every year and every year I have to take it away from him and place it in the park. Poor squirming little thing. I swear the snake plays dead until I pick it up then it comes alive again. Oh goodie! lol. Maybe it is a ribbon snake. They look exactly alike.
I love our yard. I've been complaining about the rain but this is first year our cherry tree has cherries and our apple tree has little buds. Our peach tree always has little peaches and our fig tree has buds too. Of course the wildlife will get to most of the fruit before we do but they always save us something.
Snow White, I mean Anne enjoy all that Life right outside your door!
