The fact that the president's doctors are giving him the dementia test over and over again -- tracking his decline, most likely -- and that the president keeps bragging about having to take that test should be a five-alarm fire.

Trump: "You know, the first question -- they have a lion, a snake, a giraffe, and a bear. And they say 'which is the snake?' ... by the time you get to number five a lot of people are left out on the road ... I get no credit for it."

President Trump temporarily waived clean-air rules for industrial facilities that spew cancer-causing gases. Then his appointees worked to gut the regulations altogether. Our investigative reporter Eric Lipton explains how corporate interests took power inside the EPA. Read more: nyti.ms/4il3336

Do yourself a favor and watch a bunch of these Obama clips from his rally today in Ohio. He is on fire, just the energy we need.

The average family that heats their home with oil is going to pay $1500 more this winter because of Donald Trump’s insane Iran War. Some people will go cold. Some may die. This isn’t hyperbole. This is the consequence of having a president who just doesn’t care about you.

The generality principle of the Rule of Law is its most essential concept. A class of people outside criminal law is incompatible with a law-based society.

You deserve politicians that aren't bought off by corporations. You deserve better than a war that we're fighting aimlessly that raises your gas and grocery prices. You deserve to look your kids in the eye and know that their country's going to be better for them.

Trump's Justice Department goes after blacks & Muslims. ICE goes after Latinos. Trump's allies at Meta try to undercut No Kings. The forces of authoritarianism are using racism, nativism, & intimidation to try to affect the 2026 vote. The public seems unimpressed. But will timid elites speak up?

For Mike Rogers to bring into question my commitment to the Constitution is beneath him. It's shameful. I'm proud to be an American. I'm proud of our Constitution that guarantees all of us the right to pray as we choose to pray.

🚨BREAKING: U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanche, in new comments Thursday, did not rule out that the Department of Justice (DOJ) could try to prevent a state from certifying its election results — a process over which the federal government has no authority. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Shooting at a car to stop a shoplifter is not justified. Even if no one was harmed, let alone shooting to death a 1 year-old baby.

JUST IN: The police shooting that killed 1-year-old Kohen Wiley as he sat in his mother’s lap in a Walmart parking lot in Senatobia, Miss., in June “was justified,” Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch’s office said on Monday. Her office will not charge the white officer who shot the child.

Talarico: "We just found out that [Elon Musk] is almost single-handedly bankrolling this effort to install Ken Paxton in the U.S. Senate and defeat this movement...Elon Musk wants our land. He wants our water. He wants his very own personal United States senator. He is trying to buy Texas."

Meta took down the No Kings organizing page today - the biggest day of protest this fall. They provided zero explanation. It stayed down for the entire afternoon until most of the protests were done. Outrageous. Put this on the January investigation list.

The first subpoena from the new Democratic Congress should be to Mark Zuckerberg, for taking down the No Kings Instagram account in the middle of one of the largest days of civic activism in American history. No Kings. No Courtiers.

Q: Will you disavow the Muslim Brotherhood? El-Sayed: Yes. Why are you asking the question? Do you assume that I wouldn’t? Q: Yes, because I have not heard you disavow them yet. El-Sayed: Have you disavowed them? I have not heard you disavow them yet.

X is owned by Musk. TikTok is blocking the Musk movie account. Meta blocked the No Kings account. This is why Democracy Docket is not built on SubStack or any third-party platform that could one day turn against it. It costs more to operate but is worth it. Subscribe now. demdock.com/4w6emld
