Just a reminder that when the Trump people refer to "Marxism" they mean it the way jeering segregationists protesting the integration of schools meant it. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Tomorrow, my bill repealing the ban on same sex marriage will be heard in House Judiciary at 8am. The ban on same sex marriage has remained in our state constitution since the early 2000s, despite being deemed unconstitutional for the last decade. It's time to remove it.

Again, this is clearly illegal, in violation of the requirements of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act and the Administrative Procedure Act. Universities need to fight back, NOW.

The Department of Defense deemed a story about baseball hero and civil rights leader Jackie Robinson's time in the Army as "DEI" and deleted it.

One of the best pieces of advice I received when I started a law firm in 2021 was to focus on “the shark closest to the boat.” When you feel overwhelmed, step back and focus on the threats that pose the most immediate risk. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/the-...

Although she applied it to an individual, arguably, Arendt's "banality of evil" applies to the broader experience of living under authoritarianism. Mostly, you're still clocking in, running errands & living ordinary life while the regime targets, terrorizes & takes over.

From a source: “Just had a co-presenter for a buildings research conference bow out. She’s a dual citizen and the FBI came knocking to ask her about her involvement in coauthoring chunks of the Paris Agreement. Climate science is being literally (and I mean literally) criminalized.”

Zohran Mamdani—the NY assemblyman who went viral last week for publicly confronting Trump's Border Czar—raised more than $840,000 over the last two months and has more than 16,000 total donors to his mayoral campaign, per the NYT. Hell yea.

They claim they can snatch people up, put them on planes, and deport them to a country run by an authoritarian, where those people will be forced to work slave labor at an inhumane prison. All without due process, and in defiance of federal courts. The hypotheticals are over. This is the nightmare.

1. In one of the most extreme anti-trans bills of 2025, a bill in Arkansas would make "contributing to social transitioning" of trans youth against the law. It asserts extraterritorial jurisdiction, applying to social media and more. Latest from Mira Lazine. Subscribe to support our journalism.

I’m not leaving the Dem party. I’ve been here for 33 years. If guys like Schumer wanna vote with republicans, THEY can leave the Dem party and join the GOP.

Chuck Schumer Helps Pull Democrats Back From Brink Of Courage

It may be minor in the face of the overall coup, but the fact that Jimmy Carter spent years building homes with Habitat for Humanity and Donald Trump has frozen their accounts for receiving funds from the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act, but somehow Jimmy Carter was evil and the felon is a Christian.

I'll correct this: The government runs out of funding Friday at midnight, leaving Democrats to decide whether to help Republicans ACCELERATE DESTROYING THE COUNTRY or block the bill TO FORCE THEM TO NEGOTIATE.

People like Tim Walz, AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Chris Murphy, and Pete Buttigieg are the future of the party. The old guard like Chuck Schumer need let them take the reins. It’s clear Schumer doesn’t have what it takes to stand up to Trump in this moment.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable. Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes. Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

I think this is right, and I don't think it will be particularly ideological. E.g.: I don't necessarily see eye-to-eye with AOC on economic issues, but at the moment I'd follow her into Hell if that's what it takes to burn the GOP to the ground, because that's the only fight that matters right now.

Extraordinary moment — Nancy Pelosi issues a statement calling on Democratic senators to reject the House funding bill, i.e. to defy Chuck Schumer. "Democratic senators should listen to the women," she says, referring to Murray/DeLauro who want a 1-month stopgap bill instead.

I'm sorry I just find it incredibly hard to believe that Schumer alone and five odd lackeys are the only ones who have a read on what the shut down will mean and all of the unions, the house and all of their constituents are reading it wrong

KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN. ☎️: (202) 224-3121 Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid. The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING. Call retiring Senators too!
