This is some lovely infographic design

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

This is scary too!!

Get. Him. Out. Of. Our. Government.

Most of us know Musk is despicable. Before I saw this list I had already heard about most on this list. When people show you who they are, believe them. There’s not any exceptions.

And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.

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

This is coming next.

This is not normal! As if federal employees didn’t already feel threatened enough—sure, let the brown shirts have guns; that’ll certainly boost compliance.

Exactly this.

its amazing the way conservative arguments fall completely apart in court when there are actually penalties for lying

Do the dumbest trumplings finally get it???

From James Taylor. #Ukraine

Talk about a rigged system.

Key document- Ukraine doesn't owe us a dime for their protection. We demanded they give up nuclear weapons after the breakup of the Soviet Union and in exchange we agreed to support them against any act of aggression.

While Republicans are trying to gut Medicaid, Democrats are fighting to save it. We know that healthcare is a human right, not a privilege for the wealthy. #DontCutMyMedicaid

We seem to be living in a time when a person does a fascist salute and it is possible to say, ‘yes, but *was* it a fascist salute?’. These times too will pass but only if truth is spoken clearly and bravely.

Don't give up. It's hard. No doubt. Probably much harder for you than the rest of us, but we're all in this together.

As Trump empowers Russia and the far right, he is laying the foundation for undermining democracies around the world. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/feb/20/trump-musk-oligarchy-russia-far-right

"As we navigate the sheer quantity of hate and unconstitutional extremism found within these orders, it’s essential we not let this blitzkrieg distract or deter us." - Keith Thirion

some talking points other than the obvious if you need them: - this is governmental overreach - this increases the chances of having to strip at the airport for *everyone* - what about intersex people - this is wasteful and inefficient and a dumb use of government resources

There are basically 5 ways to accumulate a billion dollars: 1) Profiting from a monopoly 2) Insider-trading 3) Political payoffs 4) Fraud 5) Inheritance Don’t believe the self-made myth.

We fucking knew it. ‘Krasnov’

Dear @politico.com your ethics have gradually eroded but this is utterly untenable Your White House "Bureau Chief" Dasha Burns cannot be MC'ing an event at the CPAC Fascist Fest. Cannot. Disqualifying. She's done. You're done. Apologize and atone (H/t @atrupar.com)

“I just wanna say trans people are beautiful. We are never going to stop existing. I’m never gonna stop being trans, a letter on a passport can’t change that, and fuck this administration.”

Ya. Things are being done backwards

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath. I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

We have strict taxpayer data protection laws for a reason. No executive orders or billionaires are above those laws. And this situation could delay tax refunds—devastating millions of Americans who plan their budgets around timely refunds.
