Senator Bernie Sanders will administer the oath of office to New York City’s Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani during his public swearing-in ceremony at City Hall on January 1. trib.al/ylTzosO

Delighted to hear! To Trump…⬇️

I'd rather drink goat's blood.

Today I wrote about 60 Minutes' decision to obey in advance and why it represents the sad end to the storied franchise. We are in desperate need of strong independent media. You can help Democracy Docket be a part of it by becoming a premium member today. hubs.ly/Q03CbHTt0

Since I’m getting “what did I miss” from alot, Paramount Plus, owner of CBS spiked the El Salvador CECOT prison story yesterday on 60 minutes because it made the White House look bad. Cancel paramount plus Censorship. Bari Weiss

Have you ever heard someone go off, and their words are so perfectly chosen, so well said in that moment, that you’re in awe? You think, “There’s nothing to add here,” and you applaud in your head. That’s exactly this. Pure perfection. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

New York, this moment belongs to you. Please join us for the Inauguration of a New Era on January 1, 2026.

Agree 💯 👇

It means our system is quite broken and needs to be fixed, tout de suite!

Since we all know what they’re up to, gosh, if only there was a branch of the federal government that could legislate and make laws to prevent this from happening now and in the future…😐😑

Tapper: This is one of the documents the DOJ released. It’s 100 pages. It’s all black. That’s the transparency we’re getting.

tRUMP’s Dept of Justice continues with gaslighting the American public and the survivors of Epstein’s exploitation of young girls. Release ALL the Epstein files unredacted.

Meiselas: What do you make of his attack on you? Warnock: As we say in Georgia, God bless his heart. If he’s not sleeping in Cabinet meetings, he’s watching cable news and tweeting at his political adversaries. Man, you’re the leader of the free world. People actually need you to bring relief.

Today is the deadline to release the Epstein files. The DOJ is refusing to comply. This is about justice for survivors and holding participants and co-conspirators accountable. The Epstein Files Act is the law, not a suggestion. Release the files. Immediately.

Walz: "It's very clear that the entire federal government is weaponized against Minnesota. They're threatening us. And this is what happens when you have a floundering presidency and it's about those ballrooms. Now we're back on transgender folks."

So Fabulous - we need more Native Americans in politics Go Paulette - SO Proud

Jack don’t agree to another hearing unless it’s a public one for all to witness and see! Jack knows Jim is corrupt as hell!

Ro Khanna threatens prosecution for anyone who attempts to scrub the Epstein Files as his bill to force the release of those files goes into effect tomorrow.

Didn't get what they wanted.

Rick Grennel achieved a dream today by denying a Black woman her vote.

Speaker Mike Johnson says his entire worldview comes from the Bible. But he’s about to kick 2 million Texans off their healthcare right before Christmas. If you aren’t loving your neighbor, then keep Jesus’ name out of your mouth.

Phang: If Maxwell is so worried about the grand jury records coming out, can you imagine the treasure trove of information against Maxwell, Epstein, and others that’s being held in the total Epstein files?

The White House says the Kennedy Center board vote was “unanimous”… BULLSHIT. @repbeatty.bsky.social, a Congressional member of the board, was on the call. They muted her and didn't let her voice opposition. This is beyond absurd, totally illegal, and a disgrace to the memory and legacy of JFK.

NB: When I, a professor of law, profess that an act is unlawful, I am not doing it to inform the lawbreaker, but rather to inform you, the reader. So the question “what, like you think he cares?” is inapposite. The question is whether *you* care. I think you should, which is why I bother.

We now have a bipartisan majority of members of Congress demanding a vote to extend ACA tax credits and keep health care affordable for all Americans. Speaker Johnson, bring this legislation to the House Floor immediately or step out of the way.

Warnock: He's got a lot of nerve saying that I'm using faith to divide people. This is a man who literally had protesters gassed and beaten down so he could hold up a bible in front of a church.

President Zelensky: ‘We must keep exposing every single Russian falsehood, because truth restores justice.’ Sir, yes sir! 🫡

AOC: I want to remind you where the real crime is. It's in the oligarchs taking $170 billion of our money from health care and food assistance and public programs and taking that and funneling it into a secret police program.

[email protected] : Were you satisfied with the answers you’ve gotten so far in this classified briefing on Venezuela? AOC: Oh, hell no. It was a joke. This was not a serious intelligence briefing. This was the communication of an opinion.

EXACTLY 👇 THIS !

The sooner we realize that our elected representatives have never acted on the public's behalf. The sooner we can vote in those that will.

Dr. Leila Denmark co-developed the pertussis (whooping cough) vaccine. World's oldest practicing pediatrician until she retired at age 103 (after 73 yrs). At the time of her death at age 114 & 60 days, she was the 5th-oldest validated living person in the world & 3rd-oldest in the US. #WomenInSTEM

Wise words

Crockett reminded them and stated the pure clear FACTS. This is who should run our country. The rest do not have the spine to fight like she does. Jasmine thank you for showing how it’s done. WHAT A BADASS. MEN this is how it’s done. Everyone learn from her. www.tiktok.com/t/ZTrqP9DAH/

Wishing you and yours a very happy 100th Dick Van Dyke-mas.

Then don’t look now cause it’s a viper’s nest…

Hmmmmmm consequences…

Texan here, I concur. We live in the definition of oppressive political power and the Handmaid’s Tales. We have 2 potential lifelines if we lose this from all the bickering, more women and children will die. Then the GOP wins again.

“When this administration calls you a criminal illegal alien, what do you say?” karoline leavitt’s Nephew’s mom: “I’m heartbroken. I’m heartbroken for my son. I don’t even have a parking ticket… it doesn’t make any sense. I’m just as lost as you are.”

Hmmmmm…haven’t seen this one. Will have to check it out.

NEW: A judge ordered DOJ late Friday to return materials it seized from Comey friend Dan Richman, calling their rummaging through the documents a flagrant abuse of his constitutional rights. w/ @joshgerstein.bsky.social www.politico.com/news/2025/12...
