We chose ActBlue as our donation processor because they follow all the rules and have systems in place to prevent fraudulent donations, like requiring donors to affirm US citizenship/residency. Trump knows he can’t outlaw his opposition, so he’s trying to kneecap it by cutting off its funding.

This is what I wrote in December 2024 and what I continue to believe today. Trump is a bully and bullies prey on the weak. They understand the power of fear and exploit it. Capitulating to Trump makes you more vulnerable, not less. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/now-...

Warnock: Georgia officials said they were sorry but their hands were tied, you can’t vote the first weekend of the runoff after the holiday so I decided to untie them, I sued them. And I won… They appealed asking for emergency relief. Emergency relief from what? People voting?

The fact that he had to make this video should terrify people, but it won’t. This isn’t a party issue anymore. None of us are safe, no matter what you think. Apparently educating people of their constitutional rights is grounds for arrest now. I’m so tired.

Australia first implemented compulsory voting, requiring that all eligible citizens vote, in 1925. Turnout skyrocketed immediately, from 60 percent in 1922 to 91 percent in 1925—and it has since stayed at roughly that level. boltsmag.org/compuls...

INCREDIBLE NEWS!!! Last night I joined @balint.house.gov and an amazing group of Dem legislators to demand Mohsen's release and stand with all those who are unjustly and unconstitutionally detained. Truly amazing to see him free, and humbling to witness his courage in the face of Trump's attacks.
