The vast, terrifying scale of Trump’s detention state

A majority of Americans disapprove of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s job performance and the federal government’s evolving vaccine policy, according to a poll released Thursday by the nonpartisan health organization KFF.

“When authoritarians seize power, it is crucial to recognize courageous defenders of freedom who rise and resist.”👇

Happy Nobel Peace Prize day to all who celebrate! 🕊️ In a brilliant and well deserved move, an (1) antifa (2) Latina (3) woman, María Corina Machado, wins for her work promoting democratic rights in Venezuela.

“This is a movement…This is an achievement of a whole society…I am just one person.” The beautiful humility of Venezuelan pro-democracy leader, Maria Corina Machado, the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize recipient.

“I’m trying to put this delicately,” Perry said. “There has been evidence submitted that the very presence of federal agents, that the way they’re interacting with the populace, is itself the cause of violence.” { gift article } wapo.st/4nJP5sQ

President Trump and Elon Musk spent $15 billion to fire 200,000+ federal workers, and now 750,000 more are furloughed without pay. This was never about efficiency – and we’re making sure everyone knows it.

Trump just said some federal employees “don’t deserve to be taken care of.” That’s not leadership, it’s cruelty. Hundreds of thousands of Americans are working or waiting without pay, and the president seems proud of it. We need a leader who reopens government, not one who weaponizes it.

We are witnessing the most lawless behavior by a leader in American history, just daily, extraordinary abuses of power. National Democrats must speak out in a loud and clear voice against Trump's escalating authoritarianism. It is time now.

This was magnificent.

Every word he says here is a lie. Every word he says here is a lie. Every word he says here is a lie. Every word he says here is a lie. Every word he says here is a lie. Every word he says here is a lie. Every word he says here is a lie. Every word he says here is a lie.

The malicious prosecution of Attorney General Tish James is baseless. And the indictment is not worth the paper it is written on.

Heroin addict. Serial adulterer. Road kill collector. Swimming in bacterial-dangerous waters w/ his grandchildren. Anti-Tylenol (pro-pain). Anti-circumcision (excuse for fixation on genitals). Demonizing autistic people. Anti-vaxxing propagandist. Hooligan. Yeah, that guy. Impeach and remove. Now.

What do you call a political system where those in power refuse to seat a duly elected member of the opposition party? Not a democracy that’s for certain.

Good. Damn good.

Veteran voices are needed now more than ever in California, necesitamos tu voz. On the ballot: Proposition 50, the “Election Rigging Response Act.” #Prop50 protects fair representation and defends our democracy against this administration’s attempts at election rigging.

All servicewomen serving in combat roles already have to meet stringent gender-neutral physical standards. But Secretary Hegseth is intent on smearing those women as unqualified — and pushing all women out of military service.

BREAKING: A federal judge has temporarily blocked President Trump from deploying federalized National Guard troops into Chicago. This ruling reinforces what we already knew: It is illegal for the president to use manufactured emergencies to send soldiers into our cities.

Washington Post vs Democracy Docket. If you value independent, pro-democracy media over the false neutrality of legacy outlets, support Democracy Docket by subscribing today. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

If anyone knows where this path leads ….

In a democracy based on freedom and the rule of law, we don’t jail public officials—or anyone—because of policy disagreements. We need everyone to repudiate this nonsense because a president cannot act as a prosecutor, judge, jury and dictator.

Yesterday: Trump bragged, "We took the freedom of speech away." Today: New reporting on Trump's plans to go after opposition groups. In 9 days: We mount the largest peaceful protest in modern history to say, loud and clear, that America has no king. nokings.org

The most common response I hear from Dems is, ‘what happened to her?’ What happened is she wanted to run for Senate, wanted Trump’s endorsement first, and Trump told her not to run because she couldn’t win. Since then, different Marge. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Rep. Jamie Raskin has sent letters to four of the nation's largest banks demanding information related to "more than $1.5 billion in suspicious financial transactions flagged by the banks tied to sex trafficking crimes committed by Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell and their co-conspirators."

Rebecca has 92K followers including Gaetz, Loomer, Massie, D’Souza, Sen Schmitt, Rep. Cloud. Broke with Trump over Epstein.

I think even Marsha knows this.

“.. Foreclosure rates have surged across the country and are up almost 20% from this time last year.” www.realtor.com/news/trends/...

This guy was Antifa, pass it on.

A data hoarder set up a searchable archive of the Epstein docs released by the House Oversight Committee. Used OCR and a self-hosted AI to analyze and categorize them. Actually useful bc the docs were released as disorganized jpeg files in a giant Google Drive www.404media.co/data-hoarder...

Caller: Hearing you say that everyone is smiling in the cities where troops and the National Guard have been deployed feels dystopian and insane

He should accept the golden trinkets he already grovelled and bowed down to the Saudis for and realize that the Nobel committee can't be bribed or bought.
