Start every day with this reality: EVERY HOUSE SEAT and 33 Senate seats are up for election in 2026. THAT must be the focus. Let’s get disciplined. #LeaveNoPowerOnTheTable ballotpedia.org/United_State...

Correct, Harvard today the rest of the universities tomorrow

This should be seen as evidence of the crisis: federal judges fear that Trump will order U.S. Marshals to stand down on securing the safety of judges whose decision they don’t like. This is just devastating. www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

"Patriotism versus betrayal" - my latest video on the current political moment. Take a look and let me know what you think. With written analysis too. 👇 www.hopiumchronicles.com/p/patriotism...

We are all paying for the Supreme Court’s near-total immunity ruling written by John Roberts that’s unleashed Trump and convinced him he can do anything without consequences.

Courage and commitment

Q: "What would have happened to you if you had shared battle plans like this when you were a pilot?" Rep. Mikie Sherrill: "Like everyone else except Pete Hegseth, evidently, I would've been court-marshaled and drummed out of the military. This is absolutely ridiculous."

He’s such an idiot

Just in case those of us fighting for democracy in court didn't need another challenge, Big Law turning collaborators is here and growing. My firm and others continue to fight. We will never back down. We will never bend a knee. We will never obey.

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration. So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives. So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

Organize and push back!

Really enjoying the dumbest people in America crashing the markets because they’re scared of mad king Donald Good work everyone

Howard Lutnick, Trump sycophant, is an embarrassing buffoon. We should trust Trump on tariffs? We should believe he knows what’s good for the economy? Take this nonsense as fuel for the resistance.

This was beyond good and made me think hard about my own attitudes. Billy Ray starts about minute 18 and is worth every second.

Today's pod: @jonlovett.bsky.social We discuss...all of the terrible shit + his trip to canvass for the WI Supreme Court Race. And I almost make him cry (again). Enjoy! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/j...

"Like the idea that people now are fleeing communism, and then we are treating them as if we are the communist autocrats, where you get no due process, you have no rights, and we just send you into a fucking gulag in another country. It is just absolutely enraging." - @timmiller.bsky.social

Listen listen listen. And then they came for YOU.

WTF?

All you need to know about Twitter

So obviously people are noticing and not pleased with the Trump Elon agenda

I did this little video on trump invoking the alien enemies act

We use costplusdrugs.com for an expensive medication we get for 30% less than our Medicare plan.

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. “What can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.

If you vote for this Republican Funding Bill, you are complicit in all that DOGE, President Elon, and Trump does.

Four times in the past week, Trump has interrupted a press pool Q&A to ask, "Who are you with?" On one occasion it was because he loved a Breitbart correspondent's puffy queries. The other three times, though, he bristled at more serious questions from more serious outlets.

they get it. good for them.

Here's the truth: The billionaire-owned legacy media has backed down on calling out Trump's attacks on democracy. But Democracy Docket never will. If fearless, proudly independent journalism is important to you, please support Democracy Docket's work today. www.democracydocket.com/member-me/

If you are a member of the D.C. Bar, please be on the look out for your ballot. And VOTE for Diane Seltzer for D.C. Bar president.

Eternal shame for the Trump sycophants who support his disgraceful, deadly betrayal of democratic Ukraine to side with Putin. The blood is on their hands.

Worth a watch: As videos of angry voters at GOP town halls circulate, worth noting that Democrats are holding them too. Tom Suozzi, who represents a Trump +5 district, got a standing ovation today: “I’m Mr. Let’s Work Together. But after what happened at the White House yesterday, I’m pissed off.”

The Daily Mail is Super in the tank for TRUMP so This is actually kind of surprising.

who told this pampered asshole he has the right to speak to anyone like this?

Happening so fast
