No money for pediatric cancer research but there's $1.7 billion for people who beat cops and smeared feces on the walls of the US Capitol.

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 for free and share its content with everyone you know. Thanks. bit.ly/4a7l1TR

#OTD in 1966 Dad delivered his speech "Don't Sleep Through the Revolution" in Hollywood, FL, and warned that the greatest danger is staying passive while injustice advances. That warning echoes clearly today.

In a sane world, we'd be discussing giving a million dollars to Jeffrey Epstein's victims and not to the traitors on January 6.

“Everything You Do Is Being Recorded” - The Atlantic This is where we are now.. Excellent article, scary AF.

The stories & photos from today’s voting rights marches in Alabama deserve to be seen by people who weren’t able to stand there in person. If this piece moves you, please share it widely & help make sure these voices aren’t lost in the noise of a crowded news cycle. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Supreme Racism. A political cartoon by Bob Whitmore about the Voting Rights Act and the U.S. Supreme Court.

A former federal judge RIPS apart Trump's $1.7B slush fund for January 6th rioters and political allies in a new court filing. Trump shouldn't be able to sue himself and steal our tax dollars. I'll make a prediction and go over the rebuke today at Noon PT / 3 ET here: www.youtube.com/live/6cmnPw6...

I quoted the Virginia Constitution and Republicans are losing their minds.🤯 Jonathan Turley suggested I am a "radical" and "Jacobian" for literally quoting the Virginia Constitution's Bill of Rights.😂

It’s a good thing Roberts assured us that SCOTUS is

No one is representing the people in this presidency.

Feeling overwhelmed with all of this. LISTEN. Another Louisiana resident (Marshawn is the only name we have) testifies against the state’s racial gerrymander, speaking truth to power up and down the hearing room and predicts how this story will end. Speak your truth, fight and believe.

President Obama: “We pulled it off without firing a missile. We got 97% of their enriched uranium out. There’s no dispute that it worked and we didn’t have to kill a whole bunch of people or shut down the Strait of Hormuz.”

Looks great so far! 🙄 The No-Bid Contract That Is Turning Washington’s Reflecting Pool Blue www.nytimes.com/2026/05/08/u...

Yeah, his justices NEVER: *Make political statements on conservative podcasts & speeches to right wing groups *Use the shadow docket repeatedly at the president’s behest *Accept lavish gifts from Republican millionaires *Fly “Don’t Tread on Me” flags at their home www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

In California, we’ve tied a lot of betterment initiatives to gas taxes. It seemed ok when everyone thought we were quickly moving toward cleaner energy & EVs, but since the Republicans in the Federal govt block our efforts to move away from fossil fuels, it’s not working out for us very well..

Thank you for posting this @deechan17.bsky.social Everyone should take 10 minutes to read this today.

The best outcome for the US and for South Carolina would be to (once and for all) give this toxic, lying, corrupt, warmongering a$$hole the boot.

At this point, I think he is just trolling us.

Three rulings hang over Supreme Court: Dred Scott 1857, Plessy 1896, Callais 2026. What makes Roberts a bigger villain than his predecessors is that they were perpetuating & codifying horrid practices, Roberts overturned 60+ year settled law to reinstate Jim Crow against will of The People.

Sarajevo safari hunters ‘competed to kill prettiest women’ - The Times of London I have no commentary here except this is a real article, and I never really knew this kind of evil was so prevalent. I guess we should be thankful that the wealthy in America just want us to be poor?

Yesterday, a caravan of about 13 cars drove from L.A. to the California City detention center - 100 miles each way. Then we joined a rally in town, and heard about all the people who've died there, including a 16 month old baby. Each center makes about 800K A DAY. It's CECOT on our shores.

Our Supreme Court is anti-democratic, anti-constitutional, and corrupt.

Is anyone else watching @maddow.bsky.social right now? Wow, things seem very dire, my fellow Americans.

The US politics are best thought of as the Democratic Party are cleaners. They clean up the mess of Republicans then the voters get angry because the problems are not fixed by Democrats quickly enough, the voters then elect Republicans to break things again.

Israel Said It’s Applying the Gaza Model in Lebanon. This Is What the Devastation Looks Like. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

fixed it :D

It appears that our great experiment with democracy is almost over. If we are unable to win back the majority in the midterms, & also make dramatic changes toward freedom, civil rights, term limits for Congress & Supreme Court justices, I’m afraid we’re cooked. Everyone must vote blue.

JFC, why are we allowing this to continue??

HUGE! If you can trust anyone on this platform, its @marcelias.bsky.social

Well, the Supreme Court did it again! Tipped the scales in favor of Republicans. So horrifying watching our civil rights crumble before our eyes.

Follow the money. #TrumpCorruption

@nytimes.com calling this illegally awarded contract “highly unusual.” It’s breaking the law. It’s ILLEGAL. When will the press stop whitewashing trump’s sprawling corruption? Firm Building Trump’s Ballroom Got a Secret No-Bid Contract for a Nearby Job www.nytimes.com/2026/04/25/u...

I ask again..

Our country is so fucked. Thank Christ we have people like Rep. Stansbury trying to fight her hardest for our nation.
