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

Is it safe to assume that Russia itself now has access to computers at the US Treasury, IRS, FAA, FBI, CIA, etc.?

(📢) MAJOR BREAKING NEWS: The Daily Beast publishes a sourced allegation that Trump has been a Russian spy since 1987 and then—possibly under some form of threat—deletes it. But in an act of unusual heroism, it left it up long enough for Wayback Machine to capture it text. Here it is (please share):

Current mood

It's nearly 5am and Republicans just rammed through their pro-billionaire, anti-middle class budget blueprint. In order to pass massive tax giveaways for billionaires, they're going to defund Medicaid, slash veterans benefits, & force kids to go hungry. Make sure everyone knows it.

A whooping 83% of Americans oppose Trump pardoning violent J6 rioters. EIGHTY-THREE PERCENT!!!

Take J. Edgar Hoover and then make him 30 times worse. The whole nation will suffer for this folly. Suffer so much more than anyone yet realizes. This was a critical benchmark Trump had to hit to advance his plan to destroy democracy. Everyone who voted for Kash Patel should live in infamy forever.

Elon Musk is such an ignorant, arrogant, deluded, narcissistic loser that he actually thinks that baseless, fact-free slander and adolescent name calling will stop Democracy Docket - some of the best, most effective lawyers in America who protect our Constitution, Rights, Freedom, Law, Justice....

The battle of our day is no longer about Democrats versus Republicans or left versus right. The choice right now is democracy or dictatorship. And we're sliding faster than I ever thought possible into the latter. Everyone must choose which side they’re on. Now.

Thank you for speaking up, Governor Pritzker.

Can you believe that many Biden voters in 2020 didn’t vote or voted for Trump in 2024? A big reason? Because she was a woman, and some didn’t think a woman could lead the country. 20% said they didn’t vote for Harris because of her gender. Why did Harris’s gender and Asian descent affect her votes?

God Smite The King.

There is zero chance we are going to let Senate Republicans pass the most pro-billionaire and anti-middle-class budget we have EVER seen the easy way. I will not sit by quietly while they try to take food off families' tables so they can put more fuel in private jets.

Trump posts a fake Time magazine cover with a crown on his head and a headline calling himself a king, while falsely attacking President Zelensky—who is courageously fighting for his country’s survival—as a dictator. This is sick and disgusting rejection of basic human values.

The disturbing part of Trump declaring himself THE KING isn't that he did it, it's that his followers want him to be a king. They've completely abandoned the fundamental precepts of democracy in favor of total centralized control by a new American royal, because they both hate the same people.

Baldwin: "Last night, the president said 'I'm not touching Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, VA, I'm not touching them.' By this morning, he endorsed the House budget resolution which paves the way for massive cuts to Medicaid."

No foreign actor has ever posed greater danger to the United States than that faced today from Trump and the Republican Party. The enemy is inside. And I use the word ‘enemy’ deliberately.

They want the immigrants perceived as criminals that he's deporting, and not the refugee. Not the hard worker trying to feed their families and make a better life. This is as much for show as his expensive military aircraft he wanted to use instead of cheaper commercial flights... I'm disgusted!

Trump is flagrantly violating the law by freezing funding that Congress appropriated—causing real damage & chaos. I pressed Trump's Secretary of Labor nominee if she would commit to simply following the law. Watch her response.

📌Your (our) social security information is being compromised as I type this. 📌It is one of the biggest stories in United States history, and for the life of me I don’t understand why it isn’t being treated this way. 📌Fucking sirens should be blaring. It is a full-on emergency.

Did you protest today? Olympia, Washington.

Protest today in Olympia, WA

The Washington Post should not have to run this ad - if you believe the reporting of the Post's own employees, "fire Elon" should be the position of the editorial board.

Ruling by Judge Chutkan in the DOGE TRO and more resignations in NYC. My very hasty write up! statuskuo.substack.com/p/some-break...

BREAKING: Reports say that Elon Musk and DOGE will gain access to IRS systems at any moment. Horrible.

The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?

This guy (Muskrat) is taking us for a ride and like all authoritarian and fascist movements around the world in history, corruption is at the heart of it. It's all about allowing people who have lots of wealth and power to seize even greater parts of the national wealth.

😃

Elon says it’s a crime to release the names of his shitler youth squad. Fuck him. Here they are.👇

"The resignations we have seen in the last 24 hours of high-ranking Department of Justice officials constitute the biggest scandal to date facing the Trump administration." A must-read new piece from former U.S. Attorney Harry Litman.

Gov. Hochul will have to remove the Mayor. This is unconscionable.

US Attorney Danielle Sassoon’s single voice of principled protest should become a chorus loud enough to drown out the weasel-like treachery of Emil Bove on behalf of Elon Musk and Donald Trump’s co-presidency. Everyone needs to read her eloquent words: big.assets.huffingtonpost.com/athena/files...

Only in America can a rich asshole who killed a bear cub, dropped it in the middle of Central Park, and did a bunch of other stupid shit—including spreading misinformation about vaccines—rise all the way to Secretary of Health and Human Services.

You're doing great. This is hard. Take some deep breaths. Call a friend. Take a walk. Watch a silly video. Spend some time caring for something or someone. Make something. Do a puzzle. Do you have a warm beverage? ❤️

I won’t stop posting this.

I miss how nice and normal the last 4 years were. It was nice to have a president who's a kind, benevolent grandpa who likes ice cream, not a criminally insane Nazi who likes to torture people.
