The Inside Story of Five Days That Remade the Supreme Court www.nytimes.com/2026/04/18/u... They should all resign

This Epstein drop is HUGE and utterly disgusting. I don’t see how this man is allowed to remain in office. Where are the evangelical leaders, the soccer moms, the folks stocking up on eggs, the farmers, the small business owners. Decide. Who are you?

“.. U.S. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard speaks on the phone while standing inside a vehicle loaded with boxes outside the Fulton County Election Hub and Operation Center after the FBI executed a search warrant there.” @reuters.com

The president of the United States had his Justice Dept. raid an election office and seize ballots in order to cast doubt on an election he lost. Yet, this is treated by legacy media as just another normal day. I founded Democracy Docket because you deserve better. Subscribe now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

If this is accurate, Good was killed by a bullet fired after there was any conceivable argument Agent Ross was in the path of her vehicle, which means there was no legal justification for using deadly force. But DOJ says there’s no reason to investigate. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/21/u...

A year into Trump’s second term and the nation is visibly destabilized. Internal divisions have hardened into open conflict, state and federal authorities are at odds, and our allies are quietly preparing to defend themselves from us.

Trump is using ICE to terrorize our cities. He is using DOJ to target his political opponents. He will eventually try to steal the 2026 election. I started Democracy Docket to be fiercely independent and unbowed. Become a member now to help support its work and to stay informed. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

Murphy: The United States Congress should not fund a Department of Homeland Security that is not obeying the laws of the United States of America

They don't seem to realize that the video of them abusing a legal observer is probably worse than whatever video the legal observer had already obtained of them.

Bill Clinton releasing a statement saying 'release the Epstein files, you cowards' was not on my bingo list.

The CBS investigation portrays a modern concentration camp, similar to the Soviet GULAG (like CECOT, an acronym): sadistic guards, 24 hour lighting, isolation cells. Americans once opposed this inhumane system. The Trump administration sent innocent people there to suffer.

The full spiked 60 Minutes CECOT package, clean & subtitled. 1/5

the vice president is a klansman

"If Trump wins, the Fed’s vaunted independence to set interest rates without political interference could crumble," Bryan Mena writes | Analysis

Fortunately, all these losers are even more unlikeable than Trump. If the country is already pissed about Trump trying to be king, imagine the backlash when folks discover the Nerd Reich’s plans.

@nbcnews.com @nytimes.com you aware of this and reporting on it? If not, your complicit

No Kings, For the love of America.

The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city. This is not a joke. This is not normal. Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

YAAAAAAAS

Dear America: welcome to your (hidden) national 18% sales tax.

Yes, they are Nazis. (see: Stephen Miller) Yes, these are concentration camps. (see: Alligator Alcatraz) Yes, they will come for everyone. (see: “Unhumans” book) This is fascism. It’s up to us to stop it.

Breaking News: Gov. Gavin Newsom of California sued Fox News, accusing it of defaming him in coverage of a phone call he had with President Trump this month.

@nbcnews.com @abcnewsbot.bsky.social you all should be covering this

Less than 45 minutes after President Donald Trump thanked the National Guard "for a job well done!" Mayor Karen Bass clarified on social media "the National Guard has not been deployed in the City of Los Angeles."

OMFG!! This is real:

A CNN investigation has found that in just five months, President Donald Trump dismantled the safety net that has for years protected miners from lung disease, aided those already afflicted and kept miners safe on the job. cnn.it/4kvCKHe

Estimated DOGE savings: $16 billion. Projected addition to budget deficit from House bill over next decade: $3 trillion to 5 trillion @axios.com www.axios.com/2025/05/30/d...

Earlier this month, a three-judge federal panel ruled that the state’s new redistricting map passed by Alabama Republican lawmakers in 2023 violated the Voting Rights Act (VRA) and the 14th Amendment to the Constitution by intentionally discriminating against Black voters.

WAPO: “.. Trump initially said it was Qatar that reached out and offered him the luxury jet free of charge. In fact, it was the Trump administration that first approached Qatar this winter about acquiring the plane ..” @washingtonpost.com www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

The Trump administration just sent the Secret Service to my house for posting "8647" on social media. They are literally redefining phrase as threats just so they can go after their political opponents.

President Donald Trump signed an executive order directing the Corporation for Public Broadcasting to end federal funding for America’s two biggest public broadcasters, which have faced a series of attacks from the White House and Republican lawmakers accusing them of biased reporting.

The campaign to curb bird flu on the nation’s farms has been slowed by the chaotic transition to a new administration that is determined to cut costs, reduce the federal work force and limit communications www.nytimes.com/2025/05/01/h...
