My latest about how Republicans are trying to steal an election in North Carolina and how it could usher in a new era of unprecedented election subversion. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/repu...

🚨Attention Members of the DC Bar🚨 Ballots went out today for key positions in the DC bar. Please vote for: Diane Seltzer for President Amanda Molina for Treasurer Note: Seltzer is running against Pam Bondi's brother. Get your ballot and vote ASAP.

Good morning. Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors. It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

Thread. Once again, everyone involved with doing this needs to be charged, tried, and go to prison.

As the author of a history of concentration camps, I would like to emphasize that this is a very bad idea, and we should definitely not do it.

NEW: The Supreme Court took 6 months to decide immunity, but just 6 days to effectively strip the rest of us of due process. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/the-corrup...

So, according to SCOTUS, the Trump admin can ship a person to a foreign gulag w/o due process of any kind, just so long as they have “access to due process” while detained in said foreign gulag, which of course they won’t. And MAGA actually thinks this shit will stop with people they don’t like?

donald sent a mob to kill me and my coworkers, if you support him after that, there will NEVER be any common ground between us and i hate you as much as i hate him. ✌🏽

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers. Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.

This is amazing, everyone should buy these to support an awesome rescuer in Oakland CA @catmanofoakland.bsky.social

Detain him with plainclothes masked men, send him to a Louisiana jail and don’t tell his lawyers where he is or you’re not serious about stopping shit.

Keep the Congressional switchboard number handy these days: (202) 224-3121

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific. If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

If you live in NC, call every Republican politician you know. Call every farmer you know and ask them to do the same When money walks , voters talk. Make sure they know this effects everyone in their town and state www.wunc.org/news/2025-03...

KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN. ☎️: (202) 224-3121 Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid. The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING. Call retiring Senators too!

Go ahead and stay silent. Let fear rule you. Watch injustice happen. Just don’t act like you did not know and accept that you are the latest in a long line of cowards who learned nothing from the past. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-c...

The Trump administration has deported a 10-year-old girl to Mexico who is a US citizen and is recovering from brain cancer. Her family was on their way to an emergency medical checkup when they were detained.

Everyone should be screaming like this! More of this, now please!

Some Democratic member of Congress should propose a bill saying that a POTUS may golf at government expense no more than, say, once every 14 days, and must reimburse the Treasury for anything beyond that.

"Randall hosted a morning town hall Saturday in Bremerton that filled up in minutes. Rather than turning the overflow crowd away, she immediately held a 2nd session. 'I want to hear from everyone who took the time out of their day to be here,' she wrote online..." www.advocate.com/politics/hug...

This affidavit, filed by a former Social Security employee in one of the DOGE cases, reveals a shocking exposure of personal info to DOGE operatives & possible compromise of parts of the system. Everyone should read this. Start at para 9. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Impeach this mofo.

This is insane. They are going to destroy the entire planet.

NEW: Tomorrow, The Daily Beans podcast will run without any ads in solidarity with the 2/28 economic blackout. We'll be forgoing any advertising revenue for the day. You can listen and subscribe for free: link.chtbl.com/TheDailyBeans

PLEASE: Watch what happened in Coeur d'Alene Idaho today. This is fascism. Unmarked cops. 1A violations. RESIST.

EISEN: ".. “How on earth would [Musk] have the information about the net worths of government employees? .. Either he’s making it up, which is profoundly concerning .. or he has gotten access to data that he has no business getting.” @huffpost.com www.huffpost.com/entry/musk-t...

If you are looking for someone to say that all is lost and the courts can't help protect democracy, you are following the wrong guy. If you are looking for someone who fights hard and will never give up, I'm here for you.

Imagine if @aoc @sanders.senate.gov , every dem, SIMULTANEOUSLY held Town Halls where they allowed grant and contract recipients to explain to the country what it is they do and why it's important Invite all media. Including RW podcasters. @spaces Flood the zone Call it a Day Of Transparency

You wouldn't dismantle the agency that protects consumers for corporate abuse and scams unless you wanted your rich buddies to be able to abuse and scam consumers.

This is the most important story in the United States right now. www.wired.com/story/treasu...

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

It is notable that Big Law is completely absent from the legal fights to protect democracy. In 2017, they bragged about their pro bono work for the resistance. Now, they are silent -presumably cowering in fear of Trump and Musk. Support the non-profit law orgs and small firms doing this hard work.

North Dakota Republicans have introduced legislation to declare themselves a Christian nationalist state by “acknowledging the Kingship of Jesus Christ.” This is a direct challenge to the Constitution.

Person interviewed says they feel helpless, and wonder what congress is doing Well, they literally just came back after a 10 day break. 10 days, staying home. The Dems had 3 months to make a plan, and haven’t. thehill.com/homenews/512...

no funding if it seems like the research MIGHT involve a woman or a nonwhite person

Wish I knew somebody who was in one of the two halls of Congress right now.

NEW: I'm hearing from federal employees that they're being told to file a FOIA request if they want their employee records. Meaning they've been locked out of their records and have to file a Freedom of Information Act Request to get them. If you got this email, please contact me. Signal in bio.

Your father would be so disappointed and disgusted by you. Tulsi Gabbard is Putin’s asset and John McCain hated Russia.

BREAKING: I’m hearing from several VA employees that they have been locked out of VATAS - thats how employees request leave - like administrative leave to file EEO complaints. It also shows your work schedule and OT. If this has happened to you, please reach out using the contact info in my bio.
