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...

It's time for the Trump to be removed by way of the 25th Amendment.

If you’re looking for villains in the erosion of democracy, remember that the corporate media spent weeks obsessing over Joe Biden’s choice of footwear, but when Donald Trump declared that he’s above the law they basically shrugged and moved on.

In case you’re having a bad day, new polling shows Assistant President Poopy Pant’s approval rating and personal popularity are going down faster than Lauren Boebert’s hand at a kid’s musical. Happy #PresidentsDay indeed.

Antisemitism is a canary in the coal mine signaling the erosion of democracy. Ask yourself why Musk and Vance are so invested in the success of Germany’s far right.

Trump and DOGE accused federal civil servants of fraud (with no evidence). Meanwhile, they're halting enforcement of a foreign anti-bribery law, dropping criminal charges against Eric Adams, and pardoning a former governor who tried to sell Obama's Senate seat. Hello?

Fact check: nearly 70 percent of US money for Ukraine actually went to US defense industry to replenish the stocks of OLD stuff that went to Ukraine to use. Much of which we would have paid to destroy as their lifespan expired.

NEW: Donald Trump fired a bunch of veterans today while simultaneously hindering care for veterans. In a month or so, republicans in Congress will cut food stamps so these veterans won’t be able to feed themselves or their families. I wonder how many of them voted for Trump.

In case you still believe that Usha Vance is a victim here, she happily accepted a seat on the Kennedy Center board. In Handmaid’s Tale, the Wives enjoy their places of status right up until they lose a finger. Under his eye.

You know, the rest of the White House Press Corps could collectively decide to not attend briefings, pressers, or pools until their AP colleagues are reinstated with access, but that would take a modicum of courage and integrity in this moment, wouldn't it?

No one HAS to do illegal, corrupt, wrong things, They CHOOSE to. Or not. Bravo to the SDNY and Main Justice Lawyers who are showing America what it is to defend the rule of law. What a contrast to sniveling Rs in Congress.

Most Americans still have no idea about how F'd this country is about to get. I think if they knew it would be too overwhelming to process so they prefer maintaining the delusion, "It won't be that bad." It'll be very bad, folks. Hold on to your butts.

Manhattan’s U.S. attorney resigned just days after being ordered to drop the corruption case against New York City’s mayor. So did the two men who led the unit in DC to which DOJ sought to transfer the case. This is what public integrity looks like.

Danielle R. Sassoon, Manhattan’s acting U.S. attorney, resigned on Thursday rather than obey a Justice Department order that she drop a corruption case against New York City’s mayor, Eric Adams, that she had championed, according to three people with knowledge of the matter.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social It's being said in, the Republicans budget there's two trillions worth of social program cuts in it, and I have not seen a Democrat on TV explaining to the American people, what the Republicans are trying to do. Why not?
