Not only are the Congressman’s remarks not a threat but Martin was a defense attorney for people who actually did threaten government officials - the Jan 6th insurrectionists! - and works for a president who has made multiple violent threats (2nd Amendment people and Hillary, folks, remember that?)

According to ProPublica, dozens more pregnant and postpartum women have died in Texas hospitals since abortion bans were implemented, compared with maternal deaths in the state immediately before the pandemic.

And to think just four days ago, after lecturing the Europeans on free speech, JD Vance was in my Twitter replies lecturing me about free speech too. Oh the shamelessness! This is who they are:

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

I don't think the Dems can stop the firings. But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?

Never forget.

If you didn't know... • Exxon • Moulton/Coors • Walmart Have funded Heritage Foundation (#Project2025) for YEARS #Boycott

The 'find out' phase is here.

It's going to need Republicans to grow a pair to stop the 🍊 🤡

Indiana in the moment. Yesterday's high 16, today 30.

HE is not the law. When he uses words like "we" or references himself in the first person you know how bad it is.

Now he needs to wake up about the fire fighters he is trying to fire.

Jasmine Crockett is shredding this solo. But it’s past time for the rhythm section to enter this song already.

We are now finding bird flu in deer mice and house mice in Washington State. H5N1 is advancing along the evolutionary ladder—affecting birds, mammals, and humans. This is not speculation; it’s a timeline.

Congressmen when they are asked if they will cut THEIR budgets and lay off staff as well:

Someday, business schools are gonna study the overnight queer migration from Target to Costco as a textbook example of understanding your customer base.

An hourly reminder that DOGE is not about Elon Musk cutting government money waste, it is about wasting more government money on Elon Musk. Here is Elon cutting NASA, a government agency that his private company competes with for federal funding. They aren't even bothering to hide the corruption.

An important point to keep in mind.

I wrote in January that "Donald Trump will insist on using the powers of the state to attack his political opponents." It has already begun. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/ther...

Happy President's Day to 1-44, and 46! 45 & 47 is Not My President.

The GOP Taliban wants to take away women’s right to vote. HR 22 SAVE Act with its narrow and ambiguous language is their ‘master plan’ to erase women. Dig in. Hold the line. Bombard your Reps. Raise hell! Stay loud! #EndTheWarOnWomen #SheShed www.rawstory.com/raw-investig...

Trafficking is a central theme of the QAnon worldview, with the idea that Trump would act to stop it when in office. Instead...
