Two cases and the grease that breaks democracy The obvious lesson many are drawing is that ordinary citizens are more reliable protectors of democracy than judges in black robes.

What happened in Fulton County last month is a tragedy for the future of free and fair elections.

If we want to prevent the scales from toppling over altogether, the events of the last month must serve as a necessary wake-up call for the federal judiciary, Marc Elias writes.

Trump’s Relentless Self-Promotion Fosters an American Cult of Personality

I suppose it’s good that the NY Times wrote this, but they need to get beyond style issues and warn the public loudly that Trump is building a dictatorship. I’m not alarmed about golden statues — I’m alarmed about concentration camps and masked government thugs executing people in the street.

Trump recently suggested that he is getting ready to issue a new anti-voting executive order. Last time he issued one, we sued and won. If he does it again, we will sue and win. Trump knows this. It is why he and his allies hate and attack me.

I will never back down or stop fighting for democracy.

Responding to Latest Email Release, Paul Weiss Chair Expresses 'Regrets' Over Epstein Interactions | Law.com Brad Karp and Jeffrey Epstein corresponded about getting Karp's son involved with a Woody Allen film, among other topics, the records show.

Paul Weiss partners had no courage when this guy bent a knee and bowed down to Trump so I assume they won't do anything now. But every one of them with bear the mark of shame. www.law.com/americanlawy...

How Trump’s return is pushing the media to self-censor “A lot of the guardrails are down,” says veteran journalist Margaret Sullivan.

The Trump administration has arrested Don Lemon, proving what @juliannemcshane.bsky.social wrote last year:

Trump disdains the press. And that hatred has consequences.

☠️

Naming someone is not doxxing. They aren’t undercover. They aren’t intelligence agents overseas. This is outrageous - we are supposed to be a free Republic and these people want an authoritarian police state. Lawsuits should be filed & ranking Dems in Congress should act.

Watch the pattern:

A killing.
A narrative.
A label that turns a citizen into an enemy.

And suddenly, accountability becomes “propaganda,” and dissent becomes “extremism.”

This is how democratic norms erode — one word at a time.

PSA: If Bill Kristol can say this dems should be able to say it

📌At his core, Donald Trump is nothing but a weak, fragile baby who was never loved, and has spent his entire life making that everybody else's problem.
Taking a secondhand Nobel Peace Prize and calling it his own, has to be the single-most pathetic thing I have ever seen.

This sounds insane, but given who we’re talking about, it tracks.

@milestaylor.bsky.social says Stephen Miller told him that “if Trump won reelection, it would be a shock and awe blitz…and one of those things he would look to do is invoke the insurrection act.”

Watch all of this!

Disqualified Trump appointee Halligan accuses judge of 'gross abuse of power' for questioning her authority Read more here.

If any private lawyer acted this disrespectfully towards a federal judge, we would be facing bar proceedings, court sanctions or both. The fact that Trump administration lawyers continue to act this way is a disgrace. It is time for judges to put an end to it. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

One ICE thug pulled his gun, only one. None of the other thugs saw a threat.

Chuck Schumer needs to go.

His time is up.
His voice is weak.
His power is gone.
His role is insignificant.

Democrats need
A voice of truth and power
A leader of significance
A hero

This is what state-regime media looks like.

CBS News ran a segment gushing over Rubio — calling this his “moment" and saying: “Florida, once an American punchline, has become a leader on the world stage. Marco Rubio, we salute you! You are the ultimate Florida Man!”

Ah yes. A million Epstein documents, released on Christmas Eve. Because accountability pairs best with holiday distractions.

How Trump is Building a Violent, Shadowy Federal Police Force Trump’s DHS appointees have dismantled civil rights guardrails, protected agents’ anonymity and encouraged them to wear masks, threatened groups that stood in their way, and overwhelmed legal challeng...

Six months after ICE apprehended 47 people, including nine kids, in Hays County, Tex., County Judge Ruben Becerra said DHS has ignored his attempts to get answers:

“We’re not told why they took them, and we’re not told where they took them. By definition, that’s a kidnapping.”

Update: DOJ haw now sued 18 states.

My law firm has already filed to intervene to defend voters in 13 of the first 14 cases. We are working on the remains 5.

This is an insane effort by DOJ and we are a small firm. But we are committed to protecting free and fair elections in 2026.

More soon.

Didn’t the FBi pull a lot of personnel from anti terrorism to put them on deportations?
