Now that the holiday celebrations are complete most of us on the Trump Train anticipate a whirlwind of activity and announcements from the Trump Transition Team in addition to a lot of FUN TWEETS!
.@SenWarren says she will run for re-election.
Looks like TRUMPS tweets are ‘traumatizing’ DC lobbyists.
From TRENT LOTT:
“A lot of our allies are very nervous about whether they can count on us,” said Trent Lott, a former Republican senator, now a lobbyist in Washington. “And a lot of our enemies now feel like they have a way in.”
He added: “The tweets unnerve me. I see how you can use that to go around and over the traditional media and how many people get his tweets. But it unnerves me because I’m kind of old school. I don’t put anything in writing that I don’t know who is going to see it.”
Lott said Washington tended to get much more done when people weren’t embarrassed. “I prefer to communicate with a wink and nod,” Lott continued. “I am an advocate of smoke-filled back rooms — I was very much an advocate over the years, the old conference committee meetings. That’s where I used to tell my colleagues, ‘We’ll fix it there.’”

.@MittRomney: "Trump has made a smart choice for education secretary.”
Sure would like to see this gain some momentum.

Term limit team-up - @RepDeSantis joins @tedcruz to push bill.
Looking forward to Judge Jeanine’s show tonight (I’m assuming it will be on).
FNC announced yesterday or today that Jesse Watters will have a weekly Saturday show, starting tonight. I think it does a great job - while he’s had shows, sounds like now weekly ones are a done deal :-) When they were on, they were on the hour just before the Judge’s.
Curt Schilling may run against her. Hard to beat a Dim in MA, but maybe he could.
Sen. Warren to seek re-election, repeats vow to fight Trump
“Democratic U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren said Friday she will run for a second term in 2018, signaling again that she plans to be one of her party’s fiercest critics of Donald Trump and the Republican-led Congress.”

Trump sent out another batch of tweets recently

have enough problems around the world without yet another one. When I am President, Russia will respect us far more than they do now and....
Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump 18m18 minutes ago
both countries will, perhaps, work together to solve some of the many great and pressing problems and issues of the WORLD!
I like the Michelle Obama’s Mirror/MOTUS posts - this one is pretty good.
Oh, You’ve Made Us Proud Honey!

I was looking to see what I could find on the big farewell party at the WH last night. As I posted on the above thread:
If you can stomach it - article and more pictures about the party here:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4097492/Inside-Obama-s-final-star-studded-party-Bash-goes-2am-Meryl-Streep-Mccartney-SJP-Chance-Rapper-dance-floor.html?ITO=1490
One comment in the article was that the Obamas would likely pay for it themselves - yeah, right, sure they will (I highly doubt it).
Josh Earnest all said, “’Over the years, the President and first lady have on occasion - not frequently, but on occasion - they’ve hosted parties at the White House for their friends,’ he continued.”
Not frequently??? What about all those weekly Wednesday (or whatever day) concerts???
Ha ha, the Obama’s would “likely” pay for it them selves, oh yeah.
They are flying down to FL for a WH aide;s wedding on the taxpayer dime today.....
I've been trying to sleep since 3am. No luck. Boo!
Hi Lysie, sorry to read about your lack of sleep, my wife has this problem occasionally........She takes a Tylenol PM which seems to help.
Yes, I read that. I suspect Obummer will get in at least 1 round of golf while he’s there - hope he doesn’t play on any of Trump’s courses.
“Thousands stand in line braving the cold [in Chicago] for tickets to Obama’s Farewell speech”
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/3511706/posts
This seemed weird to me - people couldn’t get in line before 6 a.m. and couldn’t get a ticked if they weren’t in line by 7 a.m. From post 41 by NautiNurse:
One narrow angle pic of the queue here:

hate when that happens... either the mind or subconscious is in overdrive.
Thanks for the gorgeous breakfast setting my friend
Only thing that helps here is hot cocoa.
Or milk and crackers
Lysie, sorry to hear about you sleep issues. I have them now and then, it’s the pits!
If you get the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries channel - there’s a Murder She Wrote marathon on all day tonight - wrap yourself up in fleece or an afghan and lay on the sofa watching TV - maybe that will help. Spaghetti/pasta often makes me sleepy. Hope you get some good rest today!
First thing I did was look for pics in that thread and could not find any. the article with pics you linked was dated Jan 2nd......... ???
