I know from experience: When we fight, we win. This week, we stopped the GOP from stealing a North Carolina Supreme Court seat. Democracy Docket reported every update on this case. Subscribe to its free newsletters for the latest on all the lawsuits to come: hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0

Linda McMahon, Secretary of Education, sent Harvard a letter. They graded it. Bwahahaha.

I speak out because the stakes are too high to stay quiet in the fight for democracy. Looking to get off the sidelines? Sign up for Democracy Docket to receive updates on the latest headlines and opportunities to get involved. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0

A man who holds the title of President of the United States, who took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution, who then says he doesn’t know if he’d uphold the Constitution, is unfit to be president and should be removed.

North Carolina Sen. Thom Tillis, a GOP swing vote, informed the White House on Monday that he would not support the president’s nominee, Ed Martin, to serve as U.S. attorney for Washington, DC. Thank you, Sen. Tillis. I'll grateful for any Republican willing to vote against Trump. .

GOP Sen. Thom Tillis says he has informed the White House he will oppose Ed Martin’s nomination to be the U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia, a likely fatal blow to his already improbable chances of confirmation. Not only has Ed Martin been a staunch advocate for January 6 attackers,…

God blesses him!

. The President of the United States just took a $2 billion bag from a UAE-backed crypto firm. That’s not business it’s a bribe. A sitting president is getting paid by a foreign government. This is treason in plain sight. And y’all quiet? Hell no. .

Clear that he actually hates Americans

Thinking about devastating cuts to NSF: US gov-funded science has been the engine upon which most of the tech wealth was generated. But the oligarchs (currently hoarding much of that $) think it’s their own brilliance & not the accident of standing close to the scientific engine that made them rich.

I stand with science

Maybe democratic leaders need to make it clear now: if you’re a nation that engaged in absolute corruption with the Trump family, you will absolutely pay a price when he is out of office. Our people deserve better

Because movie tickets weren’t expensive enough.

He's also the president who killed things like this. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...

FOR PROFIT PRISONS‼️ It exists because there are folks who make a lot of money from the private prisons!

This is from The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson aired on May 20th, 1977. Carl Sagan says something very important, a strong message that didn't lose any validity since then.

A Mother Jones investigation based on firsthand accounts from ICE detainees in Texas reveals how Venezuelans were nearly removed from the country under the Alien Enemies Act without a chance to contest the allegations against them.

We can't rest until government is restored as an instrument for the people, not our homegrown theocrats, kleptocrats and oligarchs.

I am disappointed to learn that Petco has launched a "pilot" program selling egg-laying chicks for $5.99 in its Long Island store. They are marketing these chicks as a solution to egg prices, but not educating buyers about the care, protection, and long term commitment raising chickens requires. 🧵

Sen. Ossoff: Who out there in the American public is sitting at home demanding that we shut down cancer research and Alzheimer's research?

This is a widely inaccurate & dangerous mischaracterization. The vaccine was developed in fetal cells obtained from two elective abortions in the early 1960s. There is not abortion debris floating around in the vaccine. And the Vatican has okayed its use. RFK Jr. is again spreading disinformation.

On April 24, ICE agents broke into a home of a family of US citizens in Oklahoma. The family repeatedly said we are citizens, you have the wrong people. ICE terrorized the family, ripped apart the house. It's not "other people" that this is happening to. It's us. Open your eyes. Wake the hell up.

NEW VIDEO: Donald Trump has been in office for 100 days and is creating new threats for Democracy every day. Senator Chris Murphy joins me to discuss what he is hearing from voters in deep-red districts across the country and we can all do to fight back. youtu.be/Jw9uUbMnA6E

Ron Johnson: "I'm hearing an awful lot from manufacturers in Wisconsin. If this thing drags on, the tariffs remain high, their businesses will be put out of business."

The so-called “moderate” GOP position on Medicaid cuts is no cuts above $500 billion. Hello? That would mean 18 million children and 2 million adults with disabilities lose health care coverage, according to the latest estimates. What’s “moderate” about that?

Please ask Schumer to step down from leadership and replace him. We need fighters at the helm now!

He lost Dave again.

Detainees at an immigrant detention center in Texas have sent the outside world a desperate message: SOS. A drone captured the image of 31 men banding together, using their bodies to form an SOS in the dirt yard of the Bluebonnet immigration detention facility. Just days ago, dozens of Venezuelan…

Ahem

April 28, 2025: Migrants are making SOS signs out of their bodies so drones can see them at our country's concentration camps.

Your kids get a max of two toys and then grow up to work in the same factory as their father and grandfather screwing in tiny screws. It’s called The American Dream.

Ok I am completely broken by this. The Hague and UN need to see this. #Texas

Senator Bernie Sanders once told me that the biggest stories are often the ones that no one is discussing. For the past three weeks, we’ve been covering the fact that freight volumes and truck volumes have crashed. It was plain to see. Today we are seeing this play out as the major story!

1. Clay Jackson, a Texas lawyer, provided basic legal advice to an immigrant family fearing deportation Then, two officers visited him at his home, accusing him of "obstructing an ongoing immigration investigation" Then, after speaking publicly, he was fired from his job at a Fortune 500 company
