In Big Oil's Pocket . . . China will bury America with its highly successful green projects, while old man Trump, stuck in the past era of stinky polluting coal & oil, sends our soldiers off to war for oil in places like Venezuela.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court just denied the Trump administration's desperate effort to deploy National Guard troops in the Chicago area. This is a huge win for the rule of law.

Proud to build and lead a bipartisan coalition with Rep. Jeff Hurd and @bennet.senate.gov & @hickenlooper.senate.gov — joined by more than 80 of our colleagues in the House and Senate — to protect NCAR in the FY26 NSF appropriations bill. We will not stop until NCAR is protected — period.

Happy 85th birthday, guitarist, vocalist, and songwriter Jorma Kaukonen. 🎂 #HotTuna #Airplane

Biden tried to forgive student loans. Trump is going to seize their pay. Any questions? These 2 CNBC headlines really say it all about who Trump cares about👇🏽😕

If you want to understand why election denialism is so important to MAGA, you need to understand that it is the movements foundational myth. I wrote about this today. Become a member today to access this and all Democracy Docket premium content. hubs.ly/Q03CbHTt0

Sean Duffy says he now has veto power over appropriations passed by Congress and signed into law. He is the dictator over infrastructure funds. If you do something he doesn’t like, you lose the funds passed by Congress. bsky.app/profile/atru...

1 - the exec branch can't decline to spend $ Congress appropriated 2- the fed govt can't use federal $ to extort states over policy/political disagreements 3-the fed govt can't use federal $ to impose conditions unrelated to the funding program 4-the fed govt can't use federal $ to coerce states

The thing is, they can do all of these things as long as Congress sits by & does nothing. Folks look at you like you’re crazy when you say we’re in the midst of the worst, most unprecedented Article I constitutional crisis in 🇺🇸 history, & yet here we are. All of this is happening because 👇

I hope it's clear to everyone by now that Trump's play over and over again is to yell "National Security!" and pretend as though that gives him the right to act like a dictator

I'm not a conservative commentator. No one pays me $150m to spike stories for Trump. No major network will make me the editor in chief. I am just a lawyer who fights for democracy and built Democracy Docket from scratch. For $10 a month you can help it do its vital work. hubs.ly/Q03CbHTt0

Trump wants to put his name on everything -- except the U.S. economy.

Here's the thing: if 60 Minutes had just aired the CECOT episode, it would simply be added to the pile of atrocities committed by the Trump Administration. Now it's escaped containment and become an issue unto itself. Like the Epstein files, it's not the crime, it's the coverup.

Should have stayed home with your 20 kids Phillip. Colts suck. 🤡

One of the revelations in the 60 Minutes CECOT story, as sourced by the UC Berkley students, is that Kristi Noem's torture porn video was filmed in a different part of the prison - not with the deported Venezuelans, but with domestic criminals from El Salvador.

This Trump announcement of a new ship program is...omg He's gone. He's just gone bye-bye.

He is covering up extrajudicial killings. He is covering up kidnapping, trafficking & horrific detention. He is covering up child rapes. He is covering up stealing classified documents & selling them. He is covering up details of his coup attempt. He is covering up who he’s really working for.

ICE agents illegally break into a woman's bathroom in a NY nutrition bar manufacturing plant. "Pull up your pants," says a male agent. The agents only had a warrant to review employer documents. They didn't have a warrant to search for, detain, or arrest anyone there.

"we'll give you $3,000 to stop contributing to our economy"

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

The President’s retribution against Colorado is absolutely shameful. Donald Trump shows us how sick and deranged he is—denying families disaster relief in a time of need. Colorado won't bow down to a wannabe King.

#GVerse This is the 60 minutes preview for its episode canceled without explanation but undoubtedly because the government censors don't want you to hear about it.

#MAGACultMorons 🤡

60 Minutes, dead at 57. The murder weapon was Bari Weiss.

1.3 million people from Colorado voted for donald. #MAGACultMorons

Thought they’ll gladly ship your money off to Venezuela but only to kill fishermen and the occasional cocaine dealer

Bari Weiss and RFK Jr are exactly who we said they were.

Basically, the Deputy Attorney General of the United States taking the 5th on national TV to avoid answering why he did one of the most disgusting things any DOJ official has ever done in US history.

We were doing it for 230 years before Con Man Trump showed up. If the poor guy can't run the country with The People's representatives and impartial judges checking up on him like the previous 45 presidents did, then he can't run the country.

I’m so thankful that Joe Buck and Tom Brady work for different networks. I couldn’t watch a game called by both of them.

This photo has been removed from the DOJ Epstein webpage. By whom? For whom?

I love this for them.

DNI Gabbard responds to recent Reuters reporting

Goldman: This guy is so clearly trying to follow the Putin model—using the government to make money, making sure his allies control the most important companies in the country, including our media companies, doling out money by deregulating their industries, and taking money from them in return…

Pam’s DOJ? No way?!? 🙄

Inspired by the THOUSANDS of Coloradans who showed up today in Boulder to rally together as we work to save NCAR — we will not back down!

No, this needs to be the mission of every single person who claims they don’t support Republicans. All of you. Every last one. And when you actually do that work your very own selves, you’ll be providing the foundation of support necessary for our next Dem president to get shit done.

Michael Tracey and Matt Taibbi teaming up to defend Jeffrey Epstein

On the one hand, they have redacted Trump’s name from the Epstein Files. On the other hand, they have put it on the Kennedy Center.

For a man that regrew his ear it’s strange that his hand is always in recovery mode

Nobody works this hard for this long to cover up something this bad unless they are guilty.

Three years and one month from today, I’m going to grab a pickax and pull those letters off that building, but I’m going to need help holding the ladder. Are you in? Applying for my carpenter’s card today, so it’ll be a union job!!!

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.

Tyler Adams has a torn MCL and is expected to miss "two or three months", per Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola 🇺🇸 A rough break, but with a home World Cup on the horizon it could be worse. Wishing him strength and a speedy return. Here's to the comeback 💪

Democracy Docket vs Washington Post. It has never been more urgent to support independent, pro-democracy media. hubs.ly/Q03CbHTt0

surprise, surprise. DOJ will release docs over a rolling production over a few weeks -- violation of terms of Epstein law but who's to stop them. Big point is timing -- remember first spin of Mueller Report by Bill Barr? What comes out first will be big influence on public perception.
