Eileen Laubacher is a Navy Rear Admiral, served on Biden's National Security Council, and importantly, she's running against Lauren Boebert. Let's elevate Eileen Laubacher to ensure that she can reach as many Coloradans as possible ahead of November 2026. If you can, contribute here:

They really think their mass firings had nothing to do with the problems we’re now seeing.

“The costs of opposition are surmountable. And importantly, the descent into authoritarianism is reversible. Pro-democracy forces have successfully resisted or reversed backsliding in recent years in Brazil, Poland, Slovakia, South Korea and elsewhere.” www.nytimes.com/2025/05/08/o...

I’m confused at why local governments and law enforcement are ignoring ICE’s lack of jurisdiction and authority and just letting them do whatever. If a branch of the federal government is stepping on state’s rights then where are all the ppl that screeched about that shit since the damn Civil War?

Just to be clear, Qatar wouldn’t gift a $400M luxury jet without being promised/given something in return. The United States is in grave danger with this deranged criminal tyrant in the White House. Fuck you to all who chose to endanger us all by sending him back there.

Oh, so if the Qatari prime minister dismisses controversy surrounding Trump plan to accept gifted jet -- then it's clearly OK? WRONG: It's pure corruption in broad daylight. When will the adults in the judiciary branch step up and slap this bitch down -- hard?!!

Can he? Isn't that supposed to be decided by congress?

Hey NY Times-- It is still a "fringe theory" -- every court has rejected it. There is still a "broad consensus" -- John Eastman is a disgraced lawyer under indictment. The only thing that has changed is the Times.

In case you missed it. The "gift" of the plane from the Qatari royals that will serve as the new AF1 is a bribe. YES. A BRIBE. Pass it on.

The gift is bad enough on its own, but can we talk about how insane it is to use a foreign-gifted jet as *Air Force One* Air Force One has a lot of capability that a luxury jet simply doesn’t, and that’s before we even consider the obvious spying/bugging/security concerns.

Going out now to Democracy Docket members! hubs.ly/Q03jcjqV0

73% of mothers with kids under 18 are in the workforce. More than flowers or brunch, working moms need: -Paid family leave -Equal pay -Universal childcare (But get your mom flowers, too)

Dear White Women, Are you ready to FULL-ON Karen ICE agents in your community? DEMAND to see the manager? DEMAND to see the warrant? Ask them if they know WHO they’re talking to? FILM it all? No. Really. Are you ready to do this? Our job is to spend our privilege - EVERYWHERE it is useful.

Local city councils need to start placing serious restrictions on local law enforcement’s interactions with ICE. NO local police force should assist in any activity not supported by official warrants signed by a judge. WE control city councils. WE can elect members who respect the law.

Listen to Cory.

We are in trouble. Please make it known in the broadest way ever!

As we begin another week, my law firm is litigating 52 voting and election cases in 23 states. Democracy remains on the docket.

"Under the annual appropriations act, lawmakers are permitted to enter 'any facility operated by or for DHS used to detain or otherwise house aliens.' The law is clear that members of Congress are not required 'to provide prior notice of intent to enter a facility'..." www.cnn.com/2025/05/10/p...

I also find yelling in the car to be very therapeutic 🤬 🤬

Gulf of Mexico of course

Yes he Lied to you all.. 👍 It's what he does best..🤡

This is representation. Thank you, @reptedlieu.bsky.social

You mean to tell me that Chicago gets to claim Michael Jordan, the first Black President AND the first American Pope? Good lord you ain't going to be able to tell them NOTHING.

Well, well, well. The Acting FEMA Administrator said eliminating FEMA wasn’t in the best interest of the American people — and guess what?!?! They FIRED him. I guess that’s what happens when you stand up to your power-hungry “boss”.

If guilty people don't have Due Process rights, then innocent people don't have Due Process rights, because we don't know if they're innocent or guilty until we have a trial or hearing.

Democrats—led by Rep Maxine Waters and others—walked out of a crypto hearing, which led to it being shut down. Waters objected “because of the corruption of the president of the US and his ownership of crypto and his oversight of all the agencies.” More here: www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/horrible-n...

Walz: We don’t need to run government like a business, because we’re not in the profit-making business. We’re in the business of improving lives and looking toward the future. And second, this guy has a proven track record of being an absolute failure.

Walz: When did government get to tell you how many dolls your child has? Government just big enough to fit in your bedroom, your womb, and apparently now in your toy chest.

I expect several new pro-voting lawsuits to be filed this week. The best way to stay informed about these new cases and everything happening to democracy in court is to sign up for free to Democracy Docket. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0

It is about time. He has taken full advantage of his position and is corrupt to the core.

Auchincloss on Fox News: "What I'm seeing is a president who is more interested in the valuation of his memecoin than he is about people's 401ks. What I'm seeing is a president who along with Howard Lutnick is self-dealing on crypto instead of worrying about the strength of the US dollar."

Australia told their far right Trumpees to get lost last night. Ran them completely out of town, just like Canada. A wave of rejection is starting for these guys all around the world — America’s next.

House GOP votes to allow ICE to deport even US citizens! They voted AGAINST protecting citizens from unlawful detention. Demand your Senator stop this: bit.ly/hellorep. Join us in the streets for May Day to defend democracy: www.FiftyFifty.one @meidastouch.com @ericswalwell.bsky.social

THE COST OF TRUMP Screenshot from the Port of LA live webcam 1:30 PM PST. This is not normal: Empty docks. No workers. No movement.

LET'S SHARE THE CRAP OUT OF THIS!

Donald Trump is an aspiring despot intent on destroying American democracy. The people with the power—and the constitutional obligation—to stop him are the Republicans in Congress. Their failure to act is a constitutional crisis and a stain on their legacy that will never be removed.
