I guess one way to distract people from your friendship with a sex criminal is to claim that you are friends with a political murderer.

-My firm won TX redistricting case.
-Trump's bogus RICO against me was in 11th Cir.
-Accused in deranged opinion of being a Soros puppet.

I write about all of this and more tomorrow. Join Democracy Docket now to receive. hubs.ly/Q03CbHTt0

Border Patrol is monitoring US drivers and detaining those with 'suspicious' travel patterns The U.S. Border Patrol is monitoring millions of American drivers nationwide in a secretive program to identify and detain people whose travel patterns it deems suspicious.

Border Patrol is spying on citizens who drive in the US and pulling over anyone they deem suspicious. They are desperately trying to hide it from the public. apnews.com/article/immi...

It seems the pay is great but I don’t think there’s enough money in the world to make it worth having your entire identity be “whiny loser bigot”

What a difference 30 days makes.

I think Stormzy has doubled in size. Look at him go!

This is pretty amazing. This guy just won a solid victory in Bucks County, PA, one of the most important swing counties in the country, by *explicitly and deliberately* making his race *all about* nationalizing ICE raids. Confirms the point about this now being a winning issue for Dems.

@sarahkendzior.bsky.social has been saying that for years. She’s written books about it. This was years in the making.

AOC: Trump has been saying the economy is booming, but it’s really only seven tech companies. They’re driving this growth in just one sector: AI.

So the entire economic growth can be tracked down to seven companies and their AI expansion…

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen.

Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

@ericswalwell.bsky.social YES!!! Do it!

I am spending Saturday night writing about all the people Trump is targeting with politically motivated criminal investigations and prosecutions. Legacy media has largely whitewashed these stories with both sides coverage. Subscribe to Democracy Docket now, because I never will. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

This picture says everything about the state of our nation right now, peaceful clergy being arrested and forced face-down on the pavement.

Whether they realize it or not, all these CEOs getting in bed with Trump for short-term benefit to exploit his transactional corruption are self-inflicting long-term reputational damage to themselves personally and their brands. The stink of Trump never washes off.

Meet Sue Gordon, the Former Deputy of National Intelligence Who Podcasts About Trump’s “Vice and Graft” From Her Living Room The veteran intelligence officer and ex-Trump appointee is fighting for democracy—while she fights for her life.

““It’s all tied to vice and graft…The problem is you have a president who’s a narcissist. He doesn’t believe in anything except making money and having power.”

Other folks have said it, but let me just note that:

(2) millions of Americans are abandoning current media outlets and looking for new alternatives

Seems like a sure-fire business opportunity here?

This isn’t an attack piece. It’s a reality check. If you’ve ever believed trump was fighting for regular Americans, this article will change how you see everything.
