Donald Trump is planning to use his attack on Iran to justify a power grab over voting in the 2026 midterms. The fact that the attack violates the Constitution won’t stop him from trying. It is our job to expose this plot and ensure that it does not succeed. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...

I am closely monitoring the ongoing military operations in Iran. International military actions have a direct and profound impact on Maryland’s families and communities. I served in Afghanistan and I’ve seen who pays the price when Washington rushes into conflict.

No votes on ANYTHING untill we vote on the War Powers Resolution.

I actually am unhinged enough to think it’s not out of the realm of possibility that he launches a war to distract from Epstein files and have a reason to declare a national emergency to suspend voting. It’s not as if lost lives matter to him.

THERE’S POWER IN BOYCOTTING!

Breaking MS NOW: An ICE whistleblower is expected to testify at a congressional forum today that the agency is "lying to Congress and the American people" about its training of new recruits. Ryan Schwank was an ICE academy instructor for new recruits before he resigned earlier this month.

Rice is not only precise but, in this instance, entirely correct. Democrats have no intention of playing by the old rules. Indeed, those rules no longer exist. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/susa...

So basically Trump can post that he’s sending a hospital ship to Greenland for no reason, then do absolutely nothing to actually send a hospital ship to Greenland because it was all a lie, and not one single Republican gets asked about it. That’s where we’re at.

“Today, the people of Merrimack and all of New Hampshire proved that organized, local voices are more powerful than a federal agency’s ruthless expansion,” she said. “This is a victory for us and all of New England but it is not the end of the fight.” www.bostonglobe.com/2026/02/24/m...

She’s making it happen, y’all. @jasmineforus.bsky.social is activating non-voters just like she said she would. “55% of the people that showed up on day one don’t normally vote in a primary. In fact, 20% of those voters were first-time voters.” 💥

🚨BREAKING: In a decisive win for voters, the Utah Supreme Court dismissed the GOP legislature’s appeal in the state’s landmark redistricting case — clearing the way for a fairer congressional map to be used in the 2026 elections. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

The Supreme Court ruled that Trump's "Liberation Day" tariffs are unconstitutional because they obviously are. If Trump tries to impose any other tariffs, Congress needs to impeach (and convict) him forthwith. If a President is permitted to disregard the Constitution then America is done for.

If your diplomacy sounds like a warning from a crime boss, you’ve already lost the moral high ground.

The first step to dealing with Trumpism is to ignore everything they say and only watch what they do.

Hope is not a promise. It is not a guarantee of success. It is the courage to act in the face of uncertainty. And right now, in this fragile moment for our democracy, it is the most important responsibility we share. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/what...

Is the regime trying to build an ICE detention camp near you?

Don't congratulate John Roberts or the Supreme Court. Congratulate Rick Woldenberg, the Chicago-area leader of Learning Resources, an educadtional toy company that had the courage to sue the president of the United States to save his family business. As well as everyone else who stepped up.

Never in a million years did I ever fathom when I resurrected the Epstein story in 2018 that it would lead to first arrest of a British Royal in four centuries. Not since King Charles I was arrested in 1647. open.substack.com/pub/jkbjourn...

There's a lot of cynicism right now, but Americans are organizing everywhere to reclaim the power of the pro-democracy majority: indivisible.org/get-...

Some Democrats plan boycott of Trump’s State of the Union

BREAKING — WE WON! DC Superior Court Judge Darlene Soltys ordered the DC Metropolitan Police to produce ALL body cam footage of the March 2025 DOGE raid on the US Institute of Peace within 14 days. Thanks to my @rcfp.org lawyers for their tireless work. Details on thehandbasket.co later today!

I watched the interview, and frankly, I don't understand why Trump and CBS got their knickers in a bunch over this. It was a mild interview with a nice man with a big smile. Not a lot to get mad or excited about to be honest. Is this how the thief-in-chief ensure the "right" people get elected?

This local Wolfdog joined an Olympic ski event and triggered the finish-line camera. This is Nazgul. He snuck into a cross-country skiing sprint this morning and raced the homestretch with some competitors before being escorted home. 14/10 someone get him a medal

Rep Ted Lieu claims what 99.9999% of the world already thinks — the unredacted Epstein files contain allegations of Trump raping children. 😳👇

Major MAGA podcaster BREAKS from Trump, SLAMS Pam Bondi over the Epstein Files. Nicolle Wallace, David Frum, and Alex Wagner react to mounting MAGA outrage over Epstein files. WATCH: www.youtube.com/watch?v=9GX8...

Illinois has eliminated its bill backlog and debts. Illinois has enshrined reproductive rights. Illinois has reaffirmed labor rights. Illinois has rebuilt its infrastructure. Illinois has prioritized our children’s education. Illinois has invested in our future — with more to come.

Billionaire Tom Pritzker is out as executive chairman of Hyatt Hotels after his association with rapist and child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein was revealed in the latest release of the Epstein files. Meanwhile, the pedophile mentioned over 1 million times still has a job — Trump.

Ghislaine Maxwell, a convicted child sex trafficker, gets gardening time, sports, therapy dogs, and spa products in prison. Migrant children in custody are sleeping on concrete floors without enough food or clean water. Our priorities are so fucked.

If the American people allow this child-raping piece of to shit steal the 2026 midterm elections, our country might NEVER recover.

We really have to hurry this up This regime is killing everything good about America (I know we keep calling it America but we’re only the USA and not all of the American countries) We can’t wait 3 years Too many have died already Too many lies are being told #TrumpEpstein #DeposeHim

“I’ve never protested before - but I just watched 4th & 5th grade kids run away from our own government.” 😕🇺🇸💔 (From @crindivisible.bsky.social )

🇨🇦🇺🇸 My American friends it’s a Democratic Super Majority in the Senate that can end it all… Achieving 60 seats in the Senate this Midterm would be a Herculean feat. But they could remove them ALL!!!…

USA hasn't done anything FOR Ukraine, except to cost them more distruction, and loss of life. Zelensky is right... Without security, they might as well continue fighting. Because it only means Russia will not be held to account, as they are permitted to go without now. Russia owns 200k war crimes

Help us contact voters in key states and connect them with their Members of Congress to demand that ICE’s terror tactics be stopped for good.

📽️NEW: Trump is escalating efforts to undermine the 2026 midterms by openly embracing voter intimidation and federal interference. @marcelias.bsky.social lays out actionable steps to stop election subversion, from banning mass voter challenges to denying officials who interfere with voting immunity👇

On Feb 12, our community gathered to "Love Your Neighbor." With incredible turnout, we assembled over 440 care bags for unhoused neighbors in Greenville. The energy was hopeful and determined. Thank you to everyone who packed, donated, and made this possible. We are stronger together.

Like 75% of the US Olympic curlers are from Minnesota. A lot of them curl out of two clubs in Saint Paul, one club is in Frogtown, a neighborhood that has been very heavily targeted by ICE. These curlers are good neighbors.

“A sultan from the UAE, who sent a “torture video” to Epstein, attended Trump’s first inaugural…The same country where the royal family secretly bought half of the Trump family’s crypto venture. Sultan bin Sulayem was one of six men whose names were redacted...” www.youtube.com/watch?v=7sYM...

we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad

Now we learn the billionaire owner of a bridge that will compete w/the new Canada-MI bridge met with Lutnick right before Trump issued his threat to shut down the new bridge. The Trump admin is a lawless mafia gangster extortion racket existing to enrich oligarchs at our expense.

5-year-old twins were denied bond because lack of assets and property. Are. You. Fucking. Kidding. Me. 😡

"They had driven almost seven hours from Froid, a town of about 200 people in the northeastern reaches of the state, to back one of their own..." www.newsfromthestates.com/article/comm...

What will it take? How many more horrible examples do we need? Why isn't one instance alone enough to bring these people down?

@mayor.nyc.gov, show us if you never forget. They knew the air on 9/11 was toxic. But they sent us in anyway. NYC must release ALL 9/11 files remaining and reveal the truth to all of us first-responders, our families, & the public. Our friends are dying. Help us make sure the world never forgets.

Facts for MAGA-fascists.
