Israel cuts off humanitarian supplies to Gaza as it seeks to change ceasefire deal

Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” He goes on to ask if we suffered childhood trauma and concludes by suggesting we are suffering from “generational trauma.” This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

Just a sitting President of the United States applying to register the name of the President of the United States as a trademark for, among other things, "creating an on-line virtual environment for exchange of digital collectibles featuring images, sound, videos and texts of Donald J Trump"

Bernie Sanders is 💯correct: "And in their pursuit of more power, more control, and more wealth, they are determined to not allow democracy and the rule of law to get in their way."

The Ballard Partners appointed Trump AG Pamela Bondi has filed false charges against the State of New York, Gov. Kathy Hochul, AG Letitia James, and DMV Commissioner Mark Schroeder. Prior to becoming Trump's AG, Bondi refused to charge Trump after a $25k bribe. #SpookyConnections

And there it is. Republicans have proposed a $4 trillion debt limit increase. Four trillion dollars.

NEW: A military fighter jet has crashed into San Diego Bay. This is the sixth plane collision and the second military collision since Donald Trump took office.

Staffers at the nation’s cybersecurity agency whose job is to ensure the security of U.S. elections have been placed on administrative leave, jeopardizing critical support provided to state and local election offices across the country.

A coalition of news organizations said in a court filing that video exhibits from a Jan. 6 riot case had "disappeared" from a government platform that provided access to evidence used in court.

The wonderful Mike Luckovich

Hearing that DOGE went into the Dept of Education today and shut down almost the entirety of the department's in-house research arm, Institute of Educational Sciences, cancelling contracts totally about $900m.

The Trump administration has ordered the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to stop nearly all its work, effectively shutting down an agency that was created to protect consumers after the 2008 financial crisis and subprime mortgage-lending scandal. https://buff.ly/42NeEl6

Reporters should repeatedly ask Trump if Musk has approved his plans regardless of whatever he announces

300 babies. That’s how many now have HIV because Elon Musk’s DOGE froze USAID’s lifesaving HIV/AIDS programs. Workers can’t distribute meds. Babies can’t get treatment. And Musk? He’s bragging about “feeding USAID into the wood chipper.”

Hey Merrick Garland, fuck you forever. Through your inaction, you enabled this blitzkrieg against the rule of law and democracy.

1. Anyone who has read reports in the Associated Press, the New York Times, CBS News, CNN, USA Today, the Los Angeles Times, NBC News, or Axios would be under the impression that the Trump administration has offered 2 million federal workers a "buyout" offer. IT IS NOT TRUE

A toddler, his mother, and his grandmother — all American citizens who were born in Puerto Rico — were detained and taken to an immigration detention center by U.S. officials in Milwaukee after they were overheard speaking Spanish.

Thanks to George Conway for posting Caroline Kennedy's letter so everyone is informed about RFK Jr. Please repost far and wide.

I’ve been watching episodes of “Designated Survivor” lately and all of the politicians citing their dedication and sacrifice to the principles of democracy sounds sadly naive and quaint in light of our current government.

On the @pbsnews.bsky.social former GOP congressman and veteran Denver Riggleman expressed his disgust at Trump's decision to pardon violent criminals who attacked the Capitol on Jan. 6th. He said Trump's pardons were admission of guilt for his involvement in the attack. youtu.be/lUej13G0G50?...

Please rub it in my face that I didn’t vote for genocide. Please keeping shaming me for being anti-genocide, I just hate that

Pardoned Jan 6 rioter is now at large over allegation of soliciting a minor: REPORT

UnitedHealth has overcharged some cancer patients for medicine by over 1,000%. An FTC report finds that OptumRx, United Health's pharmacy benefit manager, has made billions by charging patients a huge markup for life-saving drugs. www.yahoo.com/news/unitedh...

She has an 80% approval rating. She blows the entire narrative of incumbent parties faltering. Turns out leftist populism is popular. The centrist neolibs who punch left keep us from this in the US.

Possibly the best clap back against ignorant antivaxxers.

This 2019 story feels relevant today. Did it end with the 737 Max—or was it policy? Cutting costs to near-minimum wage shouldn’t be priority over lives & safety. 📌 Boeing outsourced 737 Max software coding to $9/hour engineers, laying off in-house talent & subcontracting offshore to save money

Reports say that the suspect who drove into the crowd of people killing 10 and injuring 30 in New Orleans' French Quarter is 42 year-old Shamsud-Din Jabbar. He is an American citizen who was born and raised in Beaumont, Texas, a U.S. Army veteran, and a real estate agent based on this video on YT.

An NYPD officer has been arrested for rape, assault, and strangulation. Samuel Sierra, 35, allegedly attacked someone close to him in a case of domestic violence. City records show he made $167,584 last year.

Israel nearly killed the head of the World Health Organization. Has any Western government commented on this yet? Can you imagine their response if it was Iran or Russia?
