“Congress has never passed a voter-suppression law like this before,” @seanmorales-doyle.bsky.social , director of the @brennancenter.bsky.social voting-rights program, told Democracy Docket.

No lawmaker in Congress should be able to own, buy, and sell individual stocks. We need to ban congressional stock trading—and I've got a bill for that.

A Delaware judge finds the right-wing network aired false and defamatory statements about Dominion Voting Systems' role in the 2020 presidential election. A jury trial is slated for late April.

Only a mentally ill person would think they can be a draft dodger, consistently insult veterans, active duty military, and dead heroes, and think they deserve to have a military parade in their own honor… Just sick!

Saturday night massacre at the IRS. Your data is no longer confidential.

The Trump administration’s rollback of the ATF’s zero-tolerance policy benefits gun dealers who knowingly sell firearms to traffickers and criminals. Trump’s making it easier for gangsters to get guns and harder for us to keep America safe.

TODAY: The House is expected to vote on the GOP's voter suppression bill. We must stop H.R. 22 to protect fair elections in 2026. We’ve seen the damage of similar laws in states like Kansas and Arizona, where thousands of eligible voters were blocked from registering. Call your representative ASAP.

The stupid... it b-u-r-n-s...!!! 🔥 🔥 🔥

MUST WATCH: The DOJ sent ARMED MARSHALS to Liz Oyer’s door. Her crime? Preparing to testify before the Senate. She defied them. She called it out. Liz Oyer says this was intimidation — plain and simple. And she’s not backing down.

Some Democrats keep voting for Trump’s nominees after the Trump Administration leaked its own war plans in a Signal group chat. Dems must treat Trump like the authoritarian threat he is and use every inch of power to fight back. This is about more than bad nominees: indivisible.org/campaign/tru...

NEW: Global drugmakers’ stocks have dropped across the board after President Trump reiterated plans for a “major” tariff on pharmaceutical imports.

🚨 NC Voters: Your Vote’s on the Line 🚨 65k+ ballots could be tossed in a tight race unless voters prove their ID. The court paused the order—but only for now. 🗳️ Check the list: terrymah.github.io/challenge 📣 Tell your people. Act within 15 days!

I agree. They obstructed justice. They had a job to do and they failed.

We wouldn’t be here if SCOTUS had allowed the January 6th trial to go forward as scheduled.

Dearborn attorney Amir Makled, who is representing a pro-Palestinian demonstrator who was arrested at the University of Michigan last year, stood his ground. He didn't give up his phone to the border patrol. eu.freep.com/story/news/l...

At least 20 people lost their lives over the weekend as storms ravaged the country. Meanwhile, Trump & DOGE have terminated 1,000 employees from NOAA — the agency that provides severe weather forecasting and warnings. Make no mistake: these cuts put people's lives in danger.

In years to come, the people who did this will be the ones who will go to jail.

Kill a white millionaire, get the death penalty. Kill two black protesters, get invited to CPAC to be celebrated.

Senator Bernie Sanders is going off on the Senate floor: "Today, it is 31 days and counting with absolutely no humanitarian aid getting into Gaza...That is a clear violation of the Geneva Convention, the Foreign Assistance Act, and basic human decency. It is a war crime! You don't starve children!"

So proud of #democratsabroad who turned out in numbers everywhere!
