This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

Here is the ad the Washington Post refused to run about Elon Musk this weekend. And here is the ad the Post was happy to run by a rightwing group funded by Musk that smeared me in October. I started Democracy Docket to be fiercely independent and prodemocracy. Check it out. www.democracydocket.com

67 fake bomb threats on Election Day 2024. Almost all of them targeting heavily Democratic cities — which had lower turnout than in 2020. Many of the threats were clearly traced to Russia. And the mainstream media and establishment have somehow COMPLETELY FORGOTTEN.

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.

Raskin: "Elon Musk, you may have illegally seized power over the financial payments systems of the Treasury, but you don't control the money of the American people. The US Congress does that under Article 1 of the Constitution ... we don't have a fourth branch of government called 'Elon Musk'"

The Trump Tariffs are ILLEGAL. He does NOT have the unilateral authority to amend trade agreements with Canada and Mexico. He needs Congressional approval -- and he does NOT have it. The tariffs should be challenged in court -- and overruled by Congress. NOW.

all I know is that had President Biden forced out the FAA chief under pressure from his top adviser and his corrupt motives, and then the next week there was a plane crash that killed more than 60 people, Republicans would be howling that it was an impeachable offense.

Not a day passes that someone doesn’t tell me that they are exhausted or, more candidly, afraid. It is okay to be tired and understandable to be afraid. Courage doesn’t come from being well rested and feeling safe. It is found in overcoming those emotions. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-a...

If Hunter Biden had pooped out in the open in Nancy Pelosi’s office and then smeared it all over the walls after hitting a police officer with an American flag, Trump would’ve been the one to pardon him.

Trump pardoned Jared Kushner's dad while Jared worked in the White House, then yesterday appointed Jared's dad as an ambassador, but Polis didn't have the same energy for that. Pathetic stuff that I for one won't soon forget.
