Watch: Warnock, Durbin reintroduce voting rights bill named for John Lewis Democratic Sens. Raphael Warnock (Ga.) and Dick Durbin (Ill.) are set to reintroduce the Senate version of the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act of 2025, which would replace the 1965 Voting Rights Act. The duo introduced a similar bill last year seeking to “strengthen our democracy by reestablishing preclearance for jurisdictions with a pattern…

We applaud the reintroduction of this important legislation that will safeguard our democracy.

As politicians in Texas and across the nation target communities of color for their own political gain, the time to be loud in defense of democracy is now.

Killing Democracy—And Not Bothering to Hide It The assault is happening in plain sight, from the Epstein case to Texas reapportionment to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

"It seems as if the authoritarian assault on the long-established and seemingly solid institutions of American democracy has reached a critical point....liberal democracy is being killed not in darkness but not in darkness but in broad daylight."

The strength of our democracy and who our economy works for are intertwined.

We cannot talk about one without the other.

If we don't fight for our democracy, we're doomed to lose it.

Vocabulary word of the day: gerrymandering

And it has no place in our democracy.

This is the plan! ⬇️
Midterms are not going to save our Democracy!

If America Were Still a Democracy... Things Would Be Very, Very Different

Our job is not to preserve democracy in America. It is too late for that. It is to restore democracy in this country. We still have a chance. But time is running out. My latest. open.substack.com/pub/davidrot...

The Boss is right – our democracy is under attack.

Hey, Jake Tapper! White House aides are covering up the president’s decline! I look forward to your book about it!

Trump isn’t gonna like this.

Donald Trump's approval rating collapses with rural Americans Rural voters have long been a cornerstone of Trump's base, and any slippage in their support could have major implications for future Republican success.

Some expected. Some surprises.

Harvard Will Not Comply With a List of Trump Administration Demands Federal officials said Harvard must enact “merit-based reform” in hiring and admissions and report international students who broke rules, among other steps. Harvard called the demands unlawful.

If Trump can disappear them, he can disappear you. With no court to verify anything the Trump regime alleges, you could be arrested and sent to a prison in El Salvador for having views the regime dislikes

A shocking statement — suggesting that only “fraudsters” would be concerned if their Social Security check didn’t arrive.

It’s the latest in a long line of comments from the Trump Administration that show their disdain for working- and middle-class Americans.

Some other examples…

Secretary Lutnick: You are a billionaire.

Maybe your mother-in-law wouldn't complain if she didn't get her Social Security check, but tens of millions of seniors struggling to survive would.

They're not fraudsters. They earned it.

How out of touch are you not to realize that?

@msnbc.com How bout you cowards cover some of the protests going on in small towns all over the country?!

@cnn.com How bout you cover any number of the hundreds of protests that are going on around the country? Or are you too scared?! Cowards

NO on cloture.
NO on cloture.
NO on cloture!
Wake up! This is serious!

Democratic senators: if you vote yes on cloture you are collaborating with Trump and Musk

If the fact that X doesn’t even have Schumer trending in the top 30 doesn’t convince you Elon musk is evil - idk what will #Schumer #Schumer’s#cloture

If voicemails are full, you can also email these staffers in Schumer's office:

mike_lynch [at] schumer [dot] senate [dot] gov

meghan_taira [at] schumer [dot] senate [dot] gov

I've said before that people think leftists enjoy being right. It sucks, actually. I do not want to be proven right, that the national Democratic party is cooked, by them voting for cloture on the CR. I don't get anything out of it, I don't have a podcast to promote, things just keep getting worse.

AOC is SPOT ON! A vote for Cloture is a vote for the BILL—no hiding behind procedure! Senate Dems must STAND STRONG, PROTECT Medicaid, and REJECT this attack on working Americans! NO on Cloture, NO on the bill! The people SEE through the games—FIGHT for them!
