The Starlink-Ukraine Scandal, Phase 2

Alarming — 🇺🇸 Senator @chrismurphyct.bsky.social denied access to military facilities in the Middle East: “Unprecedented. Hegseth is trying to cover up the extent of the damage from a war spiraling out of control. This should be unacceptable to everybody, Republican or Democrat.”

❗️REPOST if you stand with President 🇺🇦Zelensky!

Sunday Night Football: Tetairoa McMillan's big night powers Panthers to 32-26 victory.

Michael Whatley ran the RNC for Trump. He turned up in three of our four investigations this week and still trails in every September poll we found. Trump's friends can write the checks. They can't make North Carolina like him. www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/trumps-sen...

“No one thinks self-regulation is enough,” Bill Gates said, calling for laws, law enforcement, safeguards, & monitoring for AI. Trump wants the industry to regulate itself🙄 We refuse to hand Big Tech a blank check to unleash tools that can put billions of lives at risk.

Working in Charlotte NC! Formerly working I should say.

A very long week in court. So, I am setting a another ambitious goal this weekend of 1000 new Democracy Docket subscribers. No spam, or unwanted emails. Just information and analysis about what is happening to voting and elections. Link: demdock.com/4w6emld

North Carolina: @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social, @samsteindc.bsky.social, @jvl.bsky.social, and @timmiller.bsky.social are coming to Charlotte on October 18 for a live show with special guest @petebuttigieg.bsky.social! Get your tickets now:

Mike Rogers' estimated net worth in 2013: $380,000 Mike Rogers' estimated net worth in 2026: $14,600,000 He cashed in and sold out Michiganders.

ESPN used to be a place to go for sports highlights, player insights and funny anchors. And now it's a douchebag roid case in a tank top screaming about the betting lines.

We're fighting a highway expansion here in Charlotte, but our elected officials are helping the state extort us instead of fighting for their constituents.

Paul Krugman has a great substack about this 'not up to international standards' ground beef the moron is bringing in. 🤡'S announcement came one day after a closed door meeting with a billionaire Brazilian rancher whose beef the EU said NO WAY.

Politicians in DC want to divide us. They pit us against each other while they help themselves and their billionaire friends. Michael Whatley will do whatever it takes to polarize us so he wins in November, but North Carolinians know they deserve better.

Sounds interesting Monroe and Charlotte NC: North Carolina Democrats's event, “Labor Day Weekend Rally: Win Up & Down the Ballot — with Special Guest Gavin Newsom” - sign up now to join me! #buildingblue www.mobilize.us/ncdems/event...

1. A Senate Republican super PAC tricked a grieving father into appearing in a political ad. A GOP operative targeted A SUPPORT GROUP FOR THE PARENTS OF MURDER VICTIMS offering an opportunity to speak about their children and gun violence. 🧵

This! 👇🏽

This is the caging I was talking about in my video on how Republicans cheat every election.

This is unspeakably sad to read. This should be on national news. We did this. . . for what?

#NC Roy Copper is running for US Senate and his message is simple-Your grocery bill went up because a computer decided it should. His plan: ban the algorithms that set your food prices, block the mergers that kill competition, & end the tariffs farmers pay. Vote for Roy! #ResistanceUnited #Pinks

We should not be trumpeting "poll results" as an indicator of election results. Look at what happened with the Hong-Crowley race. She supposedly had a 20 point lead going in. The ensuing "divisiveness" between factions of the Dem party making headlines is a disaster that must STOP.

Here's a great idea that's going around! Let's all send Dr. Fauci a thank you note! To let Dr. Fauci know there are Americans who appreciated his work immensely!✊🏻💙 Pls re-post this far & wide💙 #Pinks

Tales of everyday corruption. Pete Hegseth cancelled the $400,000 contract for making uniforms for the Blue Angels on the grounds that the contract with "The Sewing Box" was DEI since the firm is Black-owned. Instead, he awarded it to a Trump donor for $1,690,000, a 325% price increase!

If it's pretty obvious by now, I think ESPN has slowly become the FOX News of sports

Do NOT skip judicial races. #judicialracesmatter 👇👇👇 We must elect a person of integrity to our NC Supreme Court. This is NOT an option. Look at the track of Justice Anita Earls' opponent, Sarah Stevens. She is the AUTHOR of the MONSTER voter suppression bill that just passed the NC Senate (HB958).

YES!

Read Paul Krugman's article today if you get a chance.

Vote

Hurling F-bombs at an 85-year-old scientist who won’t fight back doesn’t make you tough. Staying silent after your own daughter accused Rep. Max Miller of holding a gun to her head, pushing her against a wall, and fracturing your granddaughter’s collarbone makes you a coward.

Good job Dr Fauci!!

Heads up: Taylor Farms lettuce is sold under these brand names: Marketside (sold at Walmart) Earthbound Farm (owned by Taylor Farms) Cross Valley Farms (owned by US Foods) Private labels for Target, Whole Foods (365), and Amazon Fresh. AVOID ALL OF THEM

How much more evidence do we need to prove these morons haven't read the bill? No proof of citizenship needed at OG.

Do you know how hard it was for Kentucky to get a Dem governor? I theoretically understand your point, but long game: you are lacking a voting Republican right now, which is good and maybe Beshear is thinking about Kentucky rather than his political aspirations.

Through the NC Department of Commerce’s Renew NC Single-Family Housing Program and state funding to nonprofit partners, we have repaired and rebuilt more than 1,000 homes in western North Carolina.

ESPN laying everyone off so they can pay Stephen A & Pat McAfee 9 figures is exactly why ESPN sucks now. Every media outlet (sports or otherwise) prioritizes carnival barkers despite consumers rejecting them. PTI is ESPN's most-watched daily show for a reason.

Charles Barkley contributed to MAGA Jay Feely's campaign in Arizona. So disappointed to have to add him to the ever growing list of MAGA supporters. 😔

The fact that VP JD Vance and Richard Grenell went to Romania—on behalf of the Trump Administration— to advocate for Andrew and Tristan Tate, who by all accounts, were rapists running a coercive sex ring, then permitted them to come to Florida, should be a crazy, crazy scandal.

Pvt. Isabella Gonzalez and Lt. James Feehan identified as the two soldiers killed in Jordan. A word for Hegseth and MAGA.

Hell of a policy Tom. And where is the $50,000?

WTH?

A North Carolina GOP operative has resigned from a state elections oversight role after the State Auditor’s office was caught aggressively attempting to influence how counties picked their early voting locations. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Who knows this killer???
