In the days of yore, this would end a political career. A DNI firing intel officials who reported something in contrast to a president trying to abuse emergency powers. We're the frogs and the water is at a rolling boil, folks.

NY Times' strategy is games and puzzles.🧩 WaPo is hobbled by its owner. 🙅‍♂️ CNN is rolling out a weather app.🌦️ Democracy Docket's focus is democracy, voting and elections.⚖️🗳️ Sign up now! hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0

Mike Lee’s “Obscenity” bill would ban sexual content nationwide using faith-based standards. It’s not just about porn—it’s about control. Project 2025 wants to criminalize art, identity, and queerness. This is their moral law. #MomSky #WeAreTheStorm

Don’t forget, Chauvin’s state crimes can’t be pardoned - and that’s the longer of the two sentences. Also don’t forget the people who support that murderer.

According to Trump, manufacturing needs to be American made, but Air Force One can be from Qatar? Do I have that right?

There's always a tweet.

Portugal is taking online disinformation and fake news seriously. As part of a broader attempt to encourage media literacy, it’s offering 15-18 year olds a free digital subscription to a range of respected newspapers and magazines as well as online upstarts that don’t spread lies. (Monocle)

I’m shocked, shocked I tell you

Yes, I'm pissed about the jumbo jet too. But this is actually the most important story today.

Trump is celebrating police week, but pardoned all the January 6th rioters that attacked Capitol Police officers

No, you’re not crazy. They are deporting brown people and importing white people.

Good morning to everyone but the most corrupt president to ever exist, who is at this moment selling out his nation to the funders of terrorism so his boy can sign another $2 billion deal. Oh and Tom Holman

We strongly advise the public not to do this, it’s unsafe. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. posted photos of himself and his grandkids swimming in Rock Creek, a Washington waterway so contaminated with sewage runoff that swimming has been banned citywide for over 50 years.

The numbers are in. The evidence is overwhelming. And the silence is deadly. It’s time Democrats started calling this what it is: a decades-long criminal conspiracy to seize power by any means… hartmannreport.com/p/americas-l...

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what the 34x convicted felon & adjudicated rapist Trump did.

Looking forward to talking with @anandwrites.bsky.social on Substack Live today at 12pm ET.

If South Africa is a sovereign nation, how are we able to send our own planes we paid for to transport white Afrikaners to the U.S., but simultaneously unable to send a plane to return Abrego Garcia et al?

Article I, Section 9, Clause 8: “no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.”

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

Oh for fuck sake!

Honestly? The $400M plane from Qatar is quaint compared to his crypto scam, memecoin con, insider trading, and tariff shakedowns.

Bribery in plain sight.

Could you imagine the response if a democratic president said they didn’t know if they had to uphold the Constitution? How fast would the articles of impeachment be drawn ? 20 minutes at the most

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.

AOC: "We need to be talking about ICE agents and the cowardly policy of covering their faces

🇺🇸 “Rolling Stone reached out to all 53 GOP senators after the president said he didn't know whether he needs to honor the nation's founding document. None replied.” www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

So many videos are circulating of ICE agents acting with cruelty and aggression. Behavior that eerily mirrors the “domestic terrorism” they claim to oppose. No one is forcing them to act this way; it’s a choice.

Another rainy Saturday morning #teslatakedown Watertown, MA 5/10/25. Joyful group this morning defending democracy!

Our trade deal so far is no tariffs on Rolls Royces and Bentleys and our refugee policy is white South Africans only.

HALLELUYAH! Finally, someone has the courage to take on the grifter, antivaxxer, and lunatic RFK Jr. Thank you Senator Alsobrooks.

AOC: We need to be talking about ICE agents and the cowardly policy of covering their faces — and, in many cases, their identification… The idea that we’re going to allow a paramilitary force to bloom, one that isn’t accountable to the Constitution… we’ve got another thing coming.

“Do not assume that your voice does not matter. It does. You also choose truth by what you read, how you choose to spend your time. If people no longer care about reality, authoritarians learn that they can do whatever they want.” www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Having now watched the footage and interview two of the members who were there, the amount of armed, masked federal agents surrounding three members of Congress and a mayor outside the ICE facility was totally unnecessary; the only possible reason for it was intentional escalation and intimidation.

On lies. From the @profgalloway.com podcast

Today, I announced the first-ever bipartisan Public Lands Caucus. Growing up fishing New Mexico's rivers taught me the importance of protecting our lands, waters, and wildlife.

Me, every time someone mentions Stephen Miller.

Is this who we are? newschannel9.com/news/local/f...

This is irresponsible and dangerous. As new grandparents, we are highly concerned, as are the new parents whose son was in NICU for nearly two months after being born by emergency C-section, that the "Safe to Sleep" program has been terminated by the NIH. #ProudBlue #DemVoice1

White parents vs white trash parents (Part 1 of 3)

A man who holds the title of President of the United States, who took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution, who then says he doesn’t know if he’d uphold the Constitution, is unfit to be president and should be removed.

Things the president of the United States said on meet the press today: He doesn’t know if he has to follow the constitution He’s fine with a recession Americans can do with less Small businesses are just “a couple of little businesses”

NY17 Constituent and local social worker Emily Feiner was singled out and forcibly removed during Rep. Mike Lawler's town hall.

Nothing to see here. Just @emilyjaynef.bsky.social being forcibly removed from NY-17 Rep. Mike Lawler's town hall tonight for having the temerity to act like a citizen of the United States. Hero.

😡

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work. snyder.substack.com/p/twenty-les...

Texas conservatives who've championed book bans & anti-LGBT policies suffered big losses tonight in school board races. And They seem to have lost their working majorities to pass their policies in big school boards. I tracked these results in FOUR boards tonight. So a 🧵 on each ICYMI.
