Sojourner Truth fought slavery through powerful speeches, activism, and legal action. Her “Ain’t I a Woman?” speech challenged racial and gender oppression, and her legal victory in freeing her son was groundbreaking. 164 days to Slavery Remembrance Day. #CountDowntoSRD

People aren’t just showing up—they’re fired up. The energy is with progressive leaders, not the moderates or corporate puppets.

My hometown of Waterloo, Iowa canceled its African American Read-In after Trump’s anti-diversity directives. So i got together some writer friends and I’m holding it instead.

Celebrate International Women's Day by interrupting men with your unsolicited opinions and taking credit for their work. If they get upset about it, be sure to tell them that they sound hysterical and should smile more.

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why. What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

He usually tries to at least open with broad vague lines that are “hard” to not clap for. He’s not even trying this time around.

Yeah thanking the Supreme Court for his excesses may not have the effect he hopes for.

This list is so long and taking up so much real estate in his speech it’s almost like they want to distract from their massive cuts to Medicaid

Trump backed GOP into a big corner with his “balanced budget” point. The ONLY way House GOP could even think about upholding their “no cuts to Medicaid” swing seat promises and their spending cut mandates is deficit spending and bad math. Now they have to gut Medicaid & hand it to Elon in public.

Folks, #Trump is lying. He just said his plan calls for “no tax on tips, OT, or Social Security.” But the Tax Bill the House GOP just passed has absolutely none of this. Zero. Nada. Nothing. But it does have trillions in new tax cuts for billionaires. #TrumpSpeech #SOTU

US Rep Al Green removed by Trump's Nazi while others sat and watched or jeer at him. He stood up to Trump and told him he had no mandate to disrupt Medicaid for millions of people. Make a list of which politicians you are going to keep. So far it's a short list. #3E #SOTU

Why is Al Green not the US president? If your representative is not matching your energy, they are not representing you. Drive them out and replace them. #3E #SOTU

Thank you for being our touchstone for all things legal and political. An increasingly inspirational voice among the noise that terrifies us. I read Democracy Docket when I’m feeling hopeless, scared, (& teeth gnashing)angry at this shitstorm. Your words shine a light on even our darkest days.
