Itโ€™s amazing how all the reporting is just memory-holing this part

AZ AG Mayes: If I have to, Iโ€™ll take Speaker Johnson to court. There's no legitimate reason for him to refuse to swear her in right now. And it's not fair for Mike Johnson to be holding the state of Arizona hostage because he doesn't want to release the Epstein files.

"We're saving God"? That's some blasphemy beyond measure, gold-calf boy.

There is no bounds to their arrogance.

Tomorrow is a critical day for democracy in court. Compare how the Washington Post framed it vs Democracy Docket.

Right now, fearless, pro-democracy media is more important than legacy media platitudes. Sign up now to say informed. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

Tomorrow the Supreme Court will hear arguments in the most important redistricting and voting rights case of the term. Democracy Docket isn't just covering it for the day. It has been covering this case for years.

Support its vital work to help keep you informed. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

Any empathy here? Of course not. He makes it all about himself. No one with a iota of empathy would ever say this. Ever. Trump has no empathy. None. Zero. A person with no empathy is, by definition, a sociopath-psychopath (ASPD). Impeach. Remove. Convict.

Arrogant, someone who considers their status as law & constitution, believes whatever they say is correct, speaks by belittling others, Trump is a leader. Because of him, many countries that had good relations with the world have now distanced themselves. The American people need to think carefully.

MAGA Rage at โ€œNo Kingsโ€ Boils Overโ€”and It Quickly Backfires on Trump As Trump allies smear the coming protests, a good writer on MAGA skewers the absurdity of these attacks on large swaths of Americansโ€”and explains why our best recourse will be to turn out in force.

one of the reasons they're so mad at "no kings" is that they thought they were going to get a different kind of protest. they *want* the black bloc to be out there fighting with the cops. those are the images they've been trying to generate from "go." instead--

On October 18, millions of us are rising again to show the world: America has no kings, and the power belongs to the people.

Living a moral life in an age of bullies requires collective action; it cannot be done alone. Each of us must organize and participate in a vast network of moral resistance. From this solidarity we will grow stronger. This is what our current moment requires.
