I don’t remember anyone giving Jerome Powell a check for $100 million. Who gave it to Kevin Warsh, days before he was confirmed and why?

Many of you are asking how you can help me. My only ask is this: Spread the word about the threats to democracy and how we can fight back. Tell everyone to subscribe to Democracy Docket and share its content. demdock.com/4w6emld

If only there were a law that said: "Whoever makes or offers to make an expenditure to any person, either to vote or withhold his vote, or to vote for or against any candidate Shall be fined under this title or imprisoned" We could call it 18 U.S. Code § 597 - Expenditures to influence voting

There's no forgiving this. No living it down. It's a stain on our humanity. When all this is over, the monsters who did this should be pariahs. And the soulless thugs who cheered it on while dehumanizing Haitian immigrants should be reminded of what they did every day of their lives.

The situation in Haiti is terrifying. On Sunday, 150 gunmen swept down on a town to kill, rape, loot, and burn. 22 people were executed in a churchyard. 52 were taken hostage. Stephen Miller mockingly says Haiti is safe and ICE just sent its second deportation flight this month; with kids on board.

Probably more helpful to think of them not so much as “Canadian wildfires” but rather “climate change wildfires currently consuming Canada”

KEY: all three witnesses are being detained apart, and their story is consistent. They say that there were agents along the side of the vehicle but none in front. When you add the videos showing a lack of evidence of damage to the front despite ICE's ramming claim, ICE's story is falling apart.

So Trump got a 'free plane' from Quatar, in exchange for 'deals' for his family ( and himself) through the authority of the Oval Office. THEN Taxpayers paid OVER 900 MILLION. (almost a BILLION) to have that 'free plane' refurbished to AF 1 standards & luxury THEN Trump gets to KEEP THE PLANE

traffic stops, workplace operations, and in public spaces. The surge appears to be national rather than limited to a single region. If you or someone you know lives in one of these communities, stay informed, know your rights, and follow trusted local updates as enforcement activity continues.

Then Trump blew it up over a voter suppression bill that isn’t going anywhere. I care about housing costs, Mr. President. So do the families in Southern California and across the country getting crushed by rent and mortgage payments. We’re going to get this done with or without you.

“Vote blue no matter who” goes both ways, friends. Progs call out centrists for saying it. Now centrists are calling progs out for saying it. Stop letting billionaires divide us.

Sometimes silence speaks louder than words.

Update: The $5,000 DOGE check? Never sent. The $2,000 tariff check? Dead — Supreme Court voided the tariffs. The $2 gas? Groceries UP. Utilities UP! Housing UP! Drugs UP. Wars ongoing. Trump didn’t forget. He lied. 🗳️ Tuesday. June 2nd. #Vote #OrangeCounty #California #VoteBlue

Republicans are changing the map despite it being very very close to the midterms. They will do anything they possibly can to avoid free elections

VoteHub@votehub.com

NEWS — Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee (R) has called a special session on May 5 to review the state’s congressional map. The state’s sole 🔵 district, TN-09, is expected to be targeted to create a 9–0 GOP map. The move would spark a Section 2 VRA legal fight after the Callais decision.

Bragging about being the only president repeatedly asked to take a cognitive test… Right.

Trump: We should give Newsom a cognitive test. I took 3 of them. Aced all of them, by the way. You know, I'm the only president to take a cognitive test.

EXCLUSIVE: Newly obtained documents provide the clearest evidence to date that DOGE planned to share sensitive voter data with an outside political group trying to overturn elections. However, there are key details that remain blacked out:

Trump celebrates political violence when it serves him. He mocked Paul Pelosi’s hammer attack, suggested Mark Milley deserved death, posted himself with a bat aimed at Alvin Bragg, and watched for 187 minutes as his mob attacked police and chanted “hang Mike Pence.” This is a monster.

While your gas prices are skyrocketing, Big Oil executives have cashed out $1.4 BILLION in stock in a single quarter, a 15-year peak in insider selling. In one quarter, Chevron’s CEO sold $104M, ConocoPhillips’ Chairman & CEO sold $54.3M, and Baker Hughes’ CEO sold $33M.

DOJ demanded voter files from all 50 states. DOJ sued 31 states for refusing their demand. My law firm intervened to protect voters in those cases. DOJ is now 0-5. My firm is 5-0. Lesson: When we fight we win.

A powerful man sexually pursuing a young woman who works for him is oppressive. It immediately limits and reshapes her future to her detriment, whether she is physically forced into it or not. It’s coercion either way, and that is why it’s so wrong. It’s an abuse of power.

ICE detention deaths are now occurring at a rate of roughly one every four days. Three weeks ago that rate was one every six days. The pace is accelerating, and Congress has not launched a single investigation.

Please read and share. The “grassroots” support for the SAVE America Act is a lie. The campaign pushing this bill is being run by Cleta Mitchell and Scott Presler, two of the most notorious election deniers in the country.

Newsom: He’s a weak president — and that weakness is now on display globally. The only card he had left was these tariffs. His entire economic policy has been mass deportations — and that’s beginning to unravel. His broader economic policies have obviously been aided and embedded in these tariffs

Serendipitously, as my hat spraypainted by the then-Prince Andrew is part of an exhibit on women writers at @thehuntington.bsky.social , I unearthed a letter of apology to me back then from a British woman about Andrew: "He is a spoilt, over-indulged, petulant drag on the nation ... "

BREAKING: The House passed the so-called SAVE America Act which threatens to upend our freedom to vote. The bill could disenfranchise millions of eligible voters by requiring documents like passports or birth certificates to register to vote and forcing voter roll purges. The Senate must reject it.

Trump tried to corner Canada. PM Mark Carney didn’t blink. He didn’t fly to Mar-a-Lago to kiss the ring! Instead he did what no Canadian leader has done in our lifetime. He told the president of the United States to go to hell! Now that’s how you handle a bully! #SheShed #DefendersOfDemocracy
