And the DNC wants to undercut David Hogg's initiative.

A ‘Vladimir, STOP!’ post on Truth Social appears to be Trump’s secret plan revealed to end the war. We have never looked more foolish and pathetic.

This is the way to do it - collectively resist the regime.

@maddow.msnbc.com You will be missed! Will not be watching Jen Psaki.

Democrats, keep holding townhalls in red spaces. Our Republican Reps do not come home. They do not speak to us. They do not care about us. I know this, but I need my Republican neighbors to realize it. Come talk to them. Show them. Reach them. Rural Dem organizers on the ground can help.

I would like to know more about Cardinal Pizzaballa and what his take is on church doctrine: RE: pineapples on a large pie

Well, that's a damn shame! 😉

Donald Trump is against due process even though he has benefited from it more than anyone else. And Donald doesn't just get *due* process, he get *undue* process, thanks to a corrupt, partisan Supreme Court.

@democracynow.org Today you incorrectly claimed the UK SC ruling that "woman" in the Equality Act refers to sex means trans women will no longer be protected. They are still protected from discrimination on the basis of gender ID. But places & programs designated for women means biological female.

Cowardice is what makes collective action by Big Law nearly impossible. If your friend is staying at Skadden, he is familiar with what it feels like to be a coward.

People experiencing pregnancy loss in states with abortion bans told us they wished they had known what to expect and how to advocate for themselves. We created this guide for anyone who finds themselves in the same position. (Published Dec. 2024)

This Missouri town has fewer than 5K residents. 100 of them showed up to rally for abortion rights. Rural Democrats are here. We have always been here. www.columbiamissourian.com/news/state_n...

We don't have time to wait on anyone to save us. Not the Dems, not the courts, not the decent Republicans (there are like two.) Stand up where you are. Throw sand in the gears. Get in the way. Talk back.

Today transactivists pissed all over the Millicent Fawcett statue and held placards issuing death threats. Honestly, what is it going to take for people to see this for the explicitly antifeminist, misogynistic movement it is.

It is time for Trump to put up or shut up in Court. A FEDERAL JUDGE said “no evidence before the court connects Abrego Garcia to MS-13 or any criminal organization.” No one is vouching for one man. We are standing up for EVERYONE’s right to due process under the Constitution.

@vanhollen.senate.gov Thank-you, Senator Van Hollen. We need more like you.

BREAKING: New York State Attorney General Letitia James breaks her silence, responding to Trump's retaliation against her and hands him his ass. Letitia James is a fearless woman. Must-watch:

Gaza-based photojournalist Fatma Hassona was the main subject of the film "Put Your Soul on Your Hand and Walk." She was killed with her family this week in an Israeli airstrike, just a day after the film was selected to premiere at Cannes. Director Sepideh Farsi spoke with Democracy Now!

A federal judge in Maryland granted a preliminary injunction that bars DOGE staffers from accessing non-anonymized personal data at the Social Security Administration.

“[W]e’re also seeing…the favoring not of Christians per se, but of a CERTAiN KIND of Christianity. Trump & his people are aiming not to just work w/ the movement, but to shape the movement itself, to make it more faux-populist, demagogic & frankly authoritarian.” - @katherinestewart.bsky.social 1/

BREAKING: Federal judge rules that the Trump administration showed “a willful disregard” toward his order to stop deportation flights and will start criminal contempt proceedings. From: @jaknutson.bsky.social

COLLINS: Can President Bukele weigh in on this? Do you plan to return Garcia? BUKELE: How can I smuggle a terrorist into the United States? Of course I'm not going to do it. The question is preposterous TRUMP: These are sick people

I think about this all the time these days. What it must have been like then watching people knuckle under to the regime. Was it like it is now? People you thought you knew just folding, trying to well-position themselves in the authoritarian/fascist regime rather than helping to lead resistance...

Excellent article!

When I started Democracy Docket in 2020 my theory was to obsessively focus on democracy and the courts. No games, no lifestyle features, no false neutrality. Now with 400,000 subscribers that has become a reality. I hope you check it out and sign-up. newsletters.democracydocket.com/all-newsletters
