America needs to know THE FACTS. @ericlipton.nytimes.com

The Trump admin is gearing up to use AI to delay and deny Medicare benefits for seniors. This is outrageous and should be a national scandal. We’re talking about a backdoor effort to privatize Traditional Medicare and cut benefits. I introduced legislation to stop it.

"In 1,000 days of war, Russia seized less than 1% of Ukraine's territory and failed to achieve its strategic goals." - Finnish President Stubb. He also noted that the Russian economy is stagnating: zero growth, exhausted reserves, high interest rates, and inflation.

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

THIS is NOT what ethical, members of a Global Community would allow to happen. A narcissistic Predator-in-Chief, muscled by a malicious, self-serving Republican Party, are perpetrating Mass Starvation. Unconscionable, America! @duckworth.senate.gov @amyklobuchar.com @repdean.bsky.social

NEW: @annamaria.bsky.social spent time at a maternity ward in Kakuma, Kenya, after the Trump administration cut funding for food rations there. New mothers told her stories about their pregnancies as they were left to starve.

BREAKING: We are suing Trump & his cronies to restore the Kennedy Center’s lawful name We @democracydefendersaction.org are proud to represent Kennedy Center Trustee @repbeatty.bsky.social w/ our friends at Washington Litigation Group Congress named the Kennedy Center & only they can change it

U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1 trillion. Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government. Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed EIGHT straight audits. This is the military industrial complex on steroids.

If you're having trouble watching other versions, here's an Internet Archive link for the 60 Minutes CECOT segment suppressed by Bari Weiss in the U.S.

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

BREAKING: WATCH the full 60 Minutes CECOT segment here. This was sent to me anonymously. It appears to be the segment CBS' Bari Weiss killed. www.muellershewrote.com/p/watch-the-...

it's odd to see the people who can accurately assess Bari Weiss isn't a good journalist and failed upward into her role as chief brunchlord, but can't take the additional leap to realize this is part of an active plot by extraction class media ownership to actively destroy journalism and consensus

This is so ridiculous, even for this absurd administration.

Great discussion point for SIL. @barbmcquade.bsky.social

Courts are using originalist arguments to expand executive power, weaken long-standing rights and protections, and entrench inequality. It’s crucial that lawyers push back. Our new guide shows you how. bit.ly/4iQ1v0B Art Credit: Adrià Fruitos

Breaking news: Trump is citing “national security” to halt all active work on offshore wind projects Five giant energy projects, countless jobs at risk My story explains how the argument has legal weaknesses and comes from an anti-wind policy doc I reported in January

This Yglesias piece in the NYT is horrifically bad. Almost every "fact" it cites is provably false. At best it is cocktail party banter from a pundit who knows nothing of energy. At worst, it was cut/paste from oil industry talking points. So, a rebuttal: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/18/o...

President Stubb: The Russian economy is actually not doing that well.They have zero growth,they are out of reserves,they have high interest rates&high inflation. It’s not improving.I think one of the things that hit the Russian economy quite hard were the American sanctions on Lukoil and Rosneft.

This is madness. Freezing offshore wind projects in progress will waste money, cost jobs, make electricity less reliable and more expensive, and will cause health harms given that fossil fuels will be used instead. www.politico.com/news/2025/12...

Line 5 is owned by a Canadian company and transports the nastiest, filthiest Alberta tar sands oil across the northern United States and then across Michigan so it can reenter Canada without any risk in Canada but all the risk for the US when it fails. End line 5!

Must-read piece by Jeff Mankoff, on the enduring fragility of the Russian political & economic system. It’s vital for European security that W leaders support Ukraine enough to exacerbate & then exploit Russia’s weaknesses, & aren’t deceived by RU propaganda into thinking RU victory is inevitable.

Legacy Media, like the @nytimes.com , sadly, is an oxymoron of epic proportions. Mission Statements defining the most ethical goals have been shredded by amoral wealth at the top. @ericlipton.nytimes.com @marcelias.bsky.social
