History doesn’t rhyme but it does something something

Do you make less than $360,000 a year? Your taxes are about to go UP. And you have Trump, Musk, and the Republicans to thank for it.

I'm not going to play this game of arguing if or not these people are giving a Nazi salute because that is the engagement they're looking for. They did it. And they need their teeth broken for it.

WAKE UP!!!!! It's all FEAR PORN. How many transgender athletes are there in the U.S.? Out of 510,000 athletes competing at the collegiate level, there are FEWER THAN TEN who publicly identify as transgender, Charlie Baker, the N.C.A.A. president, said in January

It's no coincidence that Musk's companies are soaring in value as the regulatory agencies that were investigating or suing them are being gutted. The DOGE agenda isn't about "efficiency" — it's about Musk freeing himself from any accountability so he can line his pockets.

“Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!”

What the actual fuck?! America, it’s time to rise. When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty!

This will go badly. Unlike Afghanistan or Pakistan trying to hit terrorists killing Americans, hit a “drug lab” and find you’ve killed 30 young women being forced to do semi-slave labor inside a friendly country.

Incredible stuff in here: They ID'ed him, in part, by going to court hearings and watching him post

Fun day going back and forth with Trump and Musk's minions and reeks on this website, where the owner loves free speech so much he wants to imprison 60 Minutes for a segment he didn't like. The world's weakest snowflakes. Brittle to the core.

Oh hell yeah give me the implant Mr Musk the big one the one called Masterful Gambit 3000

On the long list of shameful and personally revealing things Trump is doing, pressuring Romania to release the rapist sex trafficker Andrew Tate is certainly up there. Trump relates more to a criminal like him than he does our European allies, and making him an international embarrassment.

I get we all hate the fucker And I too am getting rid of my model Y next week for a Rivian But let this sign remind everyone. Some people need their jobs. Some people cant afford to trade their car in like me. And most of us thought we were saving the planet when we bought our Tesla

The Rich keep getting more corrupt. Russia reportedly sent a whopping $5 billion through banking giants JPMorgan Chase and Citigroup in a scheme to skirt US sanctions These big corporations will sell their childrens' souls for a buck #FUCKJPMORGAN #corruptbanks dailyhodl.com/2025/02/15/r...

This is where we are now: An elementary school at Fort Campbell has removed all books from its library that so much as *allude* to slavery or the civil rights movement. The wholesale erasure of history in real time.

1/29: First plane crash in 16 years in DC 1/31: Crash in Philly 2/5: Delta flight struck in Seattle 2/6: Flight wrecks in Alaska 2/10: Crash in Scottsdale 2/12: Military jet crashes in San Diego 2/16: Crash in Covington, GA 7 crashes since the WH congratulated itself for “restoring aviation safety”

This cartoon by @mluckovich.bsky.social is getting banned on Twitter. Because of course it is.

Captures it perfectly.

Evangelical friends: As someone who has read the New Testament cover to cover, allow me to observe that if you support Trump’s attacks on the poor, downtrodden and outcast, you are not a ‘Christian’ and you are not following the teachings of Jesus

Holy shit, I just learned so much about the INSANITY of what Elon is doing in Texas. Dudes literally trying to destroy a Native community’s lands 🤬 Submit a comment to TCEQ regarding SpaceX Permit to dump into South Bay. Instructions here: sotxejn.org/2024/10/24/n...

The Trump official currently dismantling USAID was caught in a secret meeting with a group of pro-Russian separatists in the Balkans. Those he met with are under American sanctions for trying to restart the Bosnian war in the name of Christian nationalism. 1/

Don’t feed your pets uncooked meat or raw milk, even if it’s frozen at some point.

For any Republicans out there-- don't you see what's happening? Your elected officials, drunk with power, are quietly and quickly getting filthy rich. And in exchange, they're cutting your Medicaid, cutting your education funding, cutting SNAP benefits, cutting medical research.

I just got a report that a terminated employee from another agency got their job back after replying to the termination email with their good perf appraisal. If you are still connected, might as well try. It makes for good documentation if nothing else. Let me know. So far only this one anecdote.

If you’re near Washington, MO, you can pay $20 to ask this all-white, all-male panel of Republican lawmakers questions. Honestly, if I weren’t five hours away, I’d pay to get in front of these folks.

I need people to play attention to this 👇 and to what I said on Thursday www.marketplace.org/2025/02/13/t... The destruction of politics is coming for the economy

Some federal employees who accepted Trump’s buyout offer are now being notified that their buyout has been denied, and they are being terminated instead.

History buffs will know that every authoritarian leader eventually converges on some version of: "I *am* the state. I can not break the law, I am the law, the law is instantiated in me." Our march to authoritarianism so far has been excruciatingly by-the-book. Hitting every beat. No surprises.

Headlines from today: Vice President Vance Accuses European Leaders of Censoring Free Speech White House Bars Associated Press From Spaces Like Oval Office and Air Force One

If Democrats are looking for a great, clear, forceful spokesperson while they are in exile from power, this is the person.

The Governor of Oklahoma saying "sayonara" is amusing, as the Oklahoma constitution requires state officials to communicate only in English. What a bunch of buffoons.

“The thing that I can’t get over is that the actual richest man in the world directed my fucking firing. I make $50k a year and work to keep drinking water safe. The richest man in the world decided that was an expense too great for the American taxpayer.”

You’ll never guess who’s a big Napoleon fanboy

“Stand back and stand by.”

A reminder. Democracy Docket's entire website is free. Democracy Dockets daily and weekly newsletters are sent to subscribers for free. The only thing Democracy Docket charges for is its premium content. That is how it is able to provide all of the free content to over 350,000 people every day.

This is a gross obscenity, using the official Twitter feed of the White House for hate-filled trolling. Fuck trump.

Plainly, Sullivan valued a few jobs over the life of our democracy and the rule of law.

The anti-trans freaks jumped from bathrooms to school curricula to women's sports to straight up discriminating them from the Army. Yet they won't do a probe of the military to purge out neo-Nazis and white supremacists.

I hate how in this timeline a pandemic broke us and as a result of it we've decided to steer the ship into another pandemic.

The IRS was a simple test for DOGE: was it really interested in efficiency and state capacity? If so, you support the tax enforcement, the biggest ROI in govt. Or did it want to minimize parts of the state that bothered billionaires? We have our answer. open.substack.com/pub/donmoyni...
