I have seen a few questions regarding Democracy Docket: 1. It does not sell subscriber or member information or email addresses. 2. It is not part of Substack or ActBlue. It is fearlessly independent, unapologetically pro-democracy. Subscribe now. newsletters.democracydocket.com

“Sickening and heartbreaking” Someone who was at the Marge Greene town hall where folks who dissented were arrested/targeted/tased by police — who has voted for both parties — writes about what she saw 👇🏽

"Christians who sought asylum from persecution by the Taliban are being told they must leave immediately or be deported. "The news came in an email to a group living legally in north Raleigh... Apostles Church in Raleigh had welcomed them after the Taliban took over... www.wral.com/story/they-f...

We must BAN congressional stock trading.

Here is our government, just quietly disappearing things that scientists and the public use. Be loud about it. www.nesdis.noaa.gov/about/docume...

Many products sold in the U.S. are made in El Salvador. In response to the El Salvador president’s statements today, we’re calling for an immediate boycott of all Salvadoran-made goods. Please help by listing any products or brands made in El Salvador in the comments below.

Mike Johnson just voted to cut Medicaid. Nearly 40% of his district relies on Medicaid.

60 Minutes found no criminal record for 75% of the Venezuelan migrants the U.S. sent to a mega-prison in El Salvador. https://cbsn.ws/4lC4Vp5

“This does not just affect North Carolina,” Riggs said. “This is like dropping a match in a really dry forest. And if we let this kind of anti-democratic effort take hold, we will not be able to contain it. So this is a fight for the very soul of democracy. Today’s decision was deeply misinformed.”

My law firm is currently litigating 50 voting and election cases in 21 states. I expect new cases will be filed this week. States with the most cases: AZ, GA, NC, NV, FL, LA, PA.

Knock knock, excuse me… @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social

Burn it all to the ground and buy up the land and water and minerals at rock bottom prices. This a fire sale for the oligarchy. How do I know? They’ve already done it to rural America…

🚨BREAKING: Federal court rules that the Pennsylvania date requirement for mail-in ballot violates the First and 14th Amendments. Counties cannot reject ballots from counting undated and wrongly dated mail-in ballots. A HUGE victory for my law firm, our clients DSCC and DCCC and the voters of PA!

Pete Hegseth allegedly having a Russian email address is the least surprising thing I’ve read today.

Judge Susan Crawford has spent her career protecting the rights of all Wisconsinites. Over the years, she’s fought to defend abortion access, healthcare, and workers’ rights—and now, she’ll be a fair, common-sense voice Wisconsin deserves on the state Supreme Court. Vote for her by April 1st!

anyway calling these "war plans" when they were actually plans to blow up an apartment building full of civilians because the girlfriend of a guy we don't like lived there sounds more like "terrorism plans" or perhaps even more accurately "terrorism factory creation plans"

Duckworth goes on Fox and Baier reads her statement calling Hegseth a “f**king liar”

When some people see a Black pilot or a woman astronaut, they think, “Oh, they aren’t qualified.” When I see a Black pilot or a woman astronaut, I think, “Wow, they had to work their ass off twice as hard to get here —now that’s being more than qualified.”

I will fearlessly and unapologetically continue to stand up for democracy, no matter what the president says about me. Democracy Docket will do the same: www.democracydocket.com/member-me/

Please consider phone banking for the Wisconsin Supreme Court seat. If you have never done it before, it’s really simple and you can do it from anywhere using any phone. They provide a script and auto dial for you. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue www.mobilize.us/mobilize/eve...

Coastal and ocean cleanups are more critical than ever - but are also the last resort. Reducing fossil fuels, plastics, sewage, fertilizer, and pesticides, all while advocating for policies that protect marine habitats contribute to the health of our oceans. #WetTribe #TidetotheOcean #CoastalCleanup

Incredible to watch Trump officials expose their glaring lack of one single longstanding principle.

⚡️Musk calls Sen. Mark Kelly a 'traitor' over Ukraine trip, Kelly pushes back. "Elon, if you don't understand that defending freedom is a basic tenet of what makes America great and keeps us safe, maybe you should leave it to those of us who do," Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly wrote.

One year ago, I made this meme with my daughter in mind. What could have been… #BloodySunday

We are all in the debris field of a SpaceX mishap

Is it a coincidence that the president would just happen to set the world’s richest man loose inside all of the government’s computers—allowing him access to everything the government knows about you—at the same moment he could be preparing to impose martial law? www.sfchronicle.com/opinion/open...

As an American, I found this story to be jaw dropping.Trump and his bullying towards Trudeau and Canada sounds far more serious than I understood before reading it. He must be stopped. 🛑

Sure Trump fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs and the CNO....but they fired the top JAG's in the Army, Navy, and Air Force. Why would you fire the top lawyers in the armed services at night on a Friday? That's the part you should be freaking out about.
