I can't tell if it's because I'm too NYC focused but does it feel like the news cycle spent more time crashing out on the fact that NYC picked a brown Muslim dude as is primary candidate then it did on a right wing extremist who shot 2 Minnesota legislators killing one, her husband and dog?

❤️ if you think buying Supreme Court decisions is corruption.

This is Trump's America.

Stepping back from the flurry of initial reaction, what is striking right now, is the Supreme Court is walking away from national baseline civil and constitutional rights and turning towards a state based civil and constitutional law regimes. Two problems strike me.

Susan Collins could stop this she won’t. Along with her votes on justices who took away Roe she has arguably done more to harm America than any single senator.

There are only three political positions in America today 1) I like the fascism 2) I'll acquiesce to the fascism (reasons for this one vary: cowardice, access, denial, misguidedly thinking that acquiescence is savvy, etc) 3) I oppose the fascism The rest is details

Thank you to everyone who stood with us today, in person and around the world online. Together, we sent a powerful message: America is not okay with this happening on U.S. soil.

I just did the math, and yes, this checks out.

Hungary banned pride and anything having to do with homosexuality. In response the country responded with the biggest pride protest in modern history. Orban is cooked. #3E

Orange Daddy gonna be big mad.

Enough! This is exactly why ICE should be required to identify themselves. If ICE looks like criminals and thugs, they should be regarded as such. 🚨 Yesterday, an L.A. man was arrested for impersonating a federal agent. Loaded gun, fake documents, cop gear and even blinking & blue on his car

This should be a constitutional requirement, in addition to not being an insurrectionist.

The Trump DOJ’s lawsuit against every federal district court judge in Maryland flew under the radar. It’s absolutely bonkers.

Take action today.

Since Trump is targeting blue states by denying them federal funds, blue states must stop sending taxes to the federal government. Let the red states fend for themselves and see how it goes.

🚨BREAKING: The latest version of the Republican reconciliation bill does not include provision that would have required those suing the Trump administration to post a huge bond if they won an injunction. A BIG VICTORY for Senate Democrats, democracy and the rule of law.

They did their job. They convicted criminals. They’ve been fired: apnews.com/article/jan-...

My daughter just sent me this I wish I was filthy rich I'd buy a full-page ad in every major publication Hardworking Decent People deserve our gratitude and respect Not being dragged off and beaten

Absolutely incredible turnout for Budapest Pride! So proud of all the organizers, including some old friends, who estimate hundreds of thousands— major embarrassment to Orban

Hey @schumer.senate.gov Democrats are “considering” forcing clerks to read the entire megabill on the floor?! This shouldn’t be optional. Force the full bill reading. No more “I didn’t know what was in it” excuses. Make every Senator sit through it and own it. @housedemocrats.bsky.social

Accurate

Viktor Orban banned pride events in Hungary, the people took it as a challenge and just had the largest pride march in their country's history.

Trump’s grip on power is growing and blue states are fighting back! On Wednesday at 5pm, Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker joins me in a live podcast for Democracy Docket members! Join the event, ask questions, and connect in the chat! sign-up now: hubs.ly/Q03v5x3c0

Budapest's streets overflowed with Pride marchers on Saturday, despite the Orban regime's threats of legal consequences. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

If it wasn't already clear to folks that same-sex marriage is in trouble with this Supreme Court, I hope the past week has driven that point home.

Never forget. We have to stop this cruel madness.

BREAKING: Zohran Mamdani, moments ago, talking about how he’s going to fix NYC. This guy sounds presidential.

Ok, so parents can exempt their kids from being exposed to LGBTQ books in public schools. Now what? What if a student has two moms or two dads? Can they not mention them at all? What if the teacher is gay? Can they not have a picture of their loved one on their desk? Where does this end?
