Members of the military are supposed to be loyal to the Constitution, not the president. Changing that seems to have been the point of the Friday Night Massacre. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

I'm sitting in a restaurant and Radio Ga GA starts playing. So I naturally did the overhead double clap during the song. Nobody else did. People looked at me like I was weird. Screw them.

Why are people drawn to RFK's false promises? Why do they have so little trust in medical institutions and why are they willing, even eager, to see them dismantled? We've enforced desperation on millions of now very manipulable people––and we're all now paying for it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CxG...

I am grateful that so many people found my open letter to Elon Musk moving and want to share it. Some well meaning people are just cutting and pasting it on their social media feeds. I would appreciate it if people would link to the version posted on @democracydocket.com instead. Thanks. Marc

1/🚨Trump has spent his first month in office launching an all-out war on the federal government—gutting agencies, violating laws, and daring the courts to stop him. We’re already seeing a constitutional crisis unfold. Let’s break down the key moves. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue

Is anyone surprised? We knew the bans would have these results. #USDemocracy www.propublica.org/article/texa...

When are we going to stop this unelected Nazi who's actually running/ruining our government? #USDemocracy

A small victory but a victory for Senate Democrats nonetheless. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue

Corruption isn't normal. KEEP UP PRESSURE ON EVERY GQP ELECTED... FEDERAL & STATE. Send support to Dems fighting back, share your ideas for resistance. Keep up your own resistance activities & do even more with www.fieldteam6.or/all-voluntee... demcast.com/team/ #USDemocracy #DemVoice1

Gqp extremists plan to cut YOUR Medicaid to give the very rich tax cuts. You good w that? Keep pressure on Congress! Call out GQP. Dems need out support, ideas & energy. Pressure outside gives folks in the building courage. (202) 224-3121 #DontCutMyMedicaid #usDemocracy #DemVoice1

"But as we’ve repeatedly said, the United States is not a startup. The federal government exists to do all of the things that are definitionally not profitable, that serve the public good rather than protect investor profits." #USDemocracy www.wired.com/story/doge-i...

The Republican war on health care is alive and well. Republicans have one goal in mind: rip away coverage for millions in order to provide tax breaks for their billionaire friends. #DontCutMyMedicaid #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

We see it alright... #USDemocracy

1/8 🚨 Google’s Real-Time Bidding (RTB) system is exposing sensitive data on U.S. military personnel, judges, & government workers to foreign adversaries & ANYONE with the resources to exploit it. This is a national security crisis. ⬇️ #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue

A remarkable resemblance between Patel & the Unabomber, Ted Kaczynski, whose reign of terror lasted from 1978 to 1995 when FBI Director Louis Freeh & Attorney General Janet Reno brought him down. We had people of integrity in leadership then. What’s next? More terror?? #USDemocracy #BlueCrew

The GOP Tax Scam is here. MAGA is stealing 880 BILLION away from healthcare - (that's 92 million people) so that the wealthy can buy some more yachts. #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory Don't Cut My Medicaid

As the GOP pushes their Tax Scam they plan to kill health care coverage for children and the poorest Americans. All so their billionaire donors can profit. Don't Cut My Medicaid #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

The president is absolutely lawless, surrounding himself with people of no moral character, & a cheering horde of MAGA zealots who have already proven they are violent & the threat of violence keeps the cowardly elected Reps in line. It’s up to us #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue

Again: WHERE are our lawmakers? A convicted felon has launched a war on the American people & our constitution. Power in the hands of a weak, vengeful man is the most dangerous thing. They have authority to stop a rogue president. Yet they refuse to act. Why? #Opposition #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

Some people aren't afraid of him. Kudos to Gov. Mills of Maine. #USDemocracy www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

Trump admin has turned its back on long-standing allies,undermining Ukraine’s sovereignty & cozying up to adversaries like Putin.This betrayal not only endangers global security but also signals a dangerous shift in America’s role on world stage. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue

SOME businesses are going to boom…

#LiveBlue #USDemocracy OPEN LETTER TO PRESIDENT ZELENSKY DEAR President Zelensky, DO NOT SURRENDER! Do not listen to the dictators, Trump and Putin! Trump has personal reasons to sell out Ukraine and cozied up to Vladimir Putin, the war criminal with an ICC warrant hanging over his head.

Talk about "didn't earn it." Caine is the definition of a white man being promoted to his highest level of incompetence. #USDemocracy

Send this to family and friends who thought Project 2025 was a farce, or who thought Trump was telling the truth that it wouldn't be implemented. #USDemocracy www.project2025.observer
