I'm not a conservative commentator. Billionaires won't pay me $150m. No major network is making me the editor in chief.

But I am a lawyer who fights for democracy. I did build Democracy Docket from scratch. And, for $10 a month you can help it do its vital work. hubs.ly/Q03CbHTt0

CNN: “An older couple making $85K/year will see their yearly insurance premiums jump from $7K to $25,000 — 30% of their income.” 😳#TrumpShutdown #TrumpHealthCareTax

This is what Dems are drawing attention to and want fixed. Now, not later.

Johnson Considering Not Bringing House Back Until Senate Passes Short-Term Funding Bill The speaker has argued that the House has done it’s job and there isn’t a reason to return until the government reopens.

*taps forehead* You don't have to swear in Adelita Grijalva and let the discharge petition hit 218 votes if you never bring back the House. www.notus.org/congress/mik...

In his Oval Office address on political violence, Trump lists the attempt on his life, the Scalise shooting, and attacks on ICE agents.

He does not mention Jan 6th, the attack on the Pelosi family, the Hortman murders, the kidnapping attempt on Gretchen Whitmer, or the fire at Gov Shapiro’s house.

We’re not going to be able to just vote ourseives out of this. It’s going to take a massive sea change with our politics, economics, and culture. And the people who committed these crimes are going to have to go to jail.

A TruthSocial post from Donald Trump, featuring an AI generated image of him in front of Chicago burning and under invasion with the words “Chipocalypse Now” near him stylized like the poster for the film Apocalypse Now. The text accompanying the post reads “‘I love the smell of deportations in the morning…’ Chicago about to find out why it’s called the Department of WAR 🚁🚁🚁”

The President of the United States just essentially declared a war on Chicago because — wait for it! — Black and Brown people live here.

This is not normal. This is not okay. And we are going to fucking fight back.

West Point alumni group cancels award ceremony for Tom Hanks The decision follows a series of political controversies involving the Trump administration that have rattled the prestigious military institution.

Can’t honor Tom Hanks, but does honor Robert E. Lee.

His military flyover of the Epstein Survivor's Press Conference was like when a little kid puts their fingers in their ears, saying "Nyah, nyah, nyah I can't hear you!"!
Pathetic, hugely expensive & hilariously ineffective.

Blowing up a boat that allegedly had drugs in it and killing alleged gang members in international waters without any due process is pretty clearly not legal.

Vice President of 🇺🇸: “I don’t give a shit”

A lawless regime.

Where are the red Make America Great Again hats out in the fields? You know, the same people who swore immigrants were “taking their jobs.”

Keep snatching hard-working folks who are just trying to support their families and don’t be shocked when this becomes the new norm.

Y’all, they’re gonna send ICE to polling places during the midterms to scoop up brown folks & claim they’re the undocumented voters they’ve been lying about for years. There’s no path to fair elections except some sort of resistance I just haven’t seen yet. 😓

RFK lied DIRECTLY to Senator Alsobrooks. He said he hadn’t fired any scientists.

RFK has fired over 3,000 scientists from HHS. It’s shameful. He must resign.

Kristi Noem spent $200M on ads for a self-deportation app that still has no data Those that used the CBP Home app, which the government spent $200 million promoting via nationwide ads, are meant to receive financial assistance of up to $1,000, and a free flight home

Their cruelty is only exceeded by their incompetence.
