Records obtained by ProPublica indicate that food banks across the country were expecting more than 27 million pounds of chicken, 2 million gallons of milk, 10 million pounds of dried fruit and 60 million eggs that never arrived. (Published October)

The days of thanking veterans today and forgetting them tomorrow has to come to an end.

notable but not surprising that Fetterman chose Fox & Friends as the place to promote his new book

Fire Chief Dick Durbin, showing up at the four-alarm inferno with a coupon good for one (1) discounted glass of water, redeemable in three weeks.

Screw Prager U and apparently also Harper Collins.

BIG NEWS: Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva will finally be sworn in as a member of Congress tomorrow. She is likely to be the 218th vote on the Epstein discharge petition, which would force a full vote to release the Epstein files in their entirety.

The biggest democracy news of the day and its only 11am! www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

A couple months back, I was curious as to how Bill Pulte was able to obtain Lisa Cook and Letitia James' mortgage documents. Today, the WSJ reports that he was actually under investigation for how he obtained them. www.wsj.com/finance/regu...

Joan Little’s 1975 murder trial inspired a national campaign for racial justice, prisoner’s rights, and survivors’ rights to self-defense.

I want some fucking answers about how eight Senate Democrats agreed to put our money in the pockets of coup-plotting Senate Republicans.

Vance has been harder on his wife than he is on the Hitler lover, who often refers to him as "fat boy" and his wife by a racial slur. Makes Ted Cruz look like Costner in The Bodyguard.

BREAKING: A whistleblower tells House Judiciary Democrats that convicted sex offender Ghislaine Maxwell is in the process of seeking a commutation of her 20-year prison sentence from Donald Trump. tinyurl.com/582addcc

Kaine on why he thinks just getting a vote on healthcare is a win: "We're the minority party, but everybody will get to see who is standing for them when it comes to lowering their healthcare costs"

This is another Trump crime against humanity.

@sanders.senate.gov: "Even if by some miracle you got 60 votes, where do you think that amendment would go? Speaker Johnson has made it very clear that he's not going to entertain it. Trump would never sign it. So it is an empty gesture. It bothers me that people want to raise false hopes."

"Maxwell has received custom meals personally delivered to her cell, after-hours time in a private exercise area, access to a service puppy, and private meetings with visitors arranged by the warden, complete with snacks. Visitors were allowed to bring computers..." www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/d...

HER DAUGHTER IS RUNNING FOR CONGRESS AND SHE STILL DID THIS?!

Because this is a brand-destroying action by Senate Dems.

Would love to see some reporting on how the airline lobby put on the pressure.

Heads up: The Supreme Court has agreed to decide whether federal law prohibits states from counting ballots that arrive after Election Day.

From street marches to court battles to the ballot box - we’ve challenged the power of this exceptionally unpopular president. The lesson from each success we've had is that we need to ramp the political pressure up, always up, not back down, now more than ever.

It’s not.

Mark Kelly notably declines to endorse Chuck Schumer as the leader of Senate Dems going forward

Q: So Dr Oz said that-- JEFFRIES: Who? Nobody who is serious in this country takes Dr Oz seriously.

The President wouldn't last five minutes as an air traffic controller, and after everything they've been through - and the way this administration has treated them from Day One - he has no business shitting on them now.

The US Supreme Court has acted like it's one of Kim Davis's many husbands and kicked the "Marriage is Sacred, Y'all!!!" hypocrite to the curb. Glory!

It’s time for new leadership

Speaker Johnson has literally said he's "not promising anyone anything." For once, I believe him.

Yeah, but that was before air travel was in trouble and the senators were personally affected, see

Seriously.

#BREAKING: Over no public dissents, #SCOTUS denies Kim Davis's petition asking the justices to overturn Obergefell v. Hodges (which recognized federal constitutional protections for same-sex marriage): www.supremecourt.gov/orders/court...

BREAKING: The Supreme Court denied an attempt to challenge Obergefell v. Hodges, the case affirming marriage equality nationwide. Our freedom to marry remains the law of the land.

fresh off caving, Sen. Jeanne Shaheen is going on Fox & Friends

Dems have spent the past two months saying they're fighting to address the crisis of spiking healthcare costs and now they're caving for a deal that does nothing to address healthcare costs ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I've looked at all the details of this deal to end the shutdown reached by a small group of Senate Democrats. I've talked to a number of friends on the Hill to see if there's anything I'm missing. Sadly, I am not. This is a shit deal. It's a betrayal. It's cowardice.

do the water fountains in the Senate building just run straight lead

Utterly clueless.

Governor Gavin Newsom on Twitter a few moments ago Regarding Democrat Senators who caved Agree with you Governor 💯

The arrogance of a Senator who is not even running again to take the lead in undermining the Caucus and the voters.

Trump is in the booth on Fox's NFL broadcast attacking Biden. Woof for all involved.

Hold the line.

if you have Dick Durbin's cellphone number, the time to share is now

Bullies gain power when their misconduct succeeds in causing righteous people to yield in the face of wrongdoing. That’s why voting for Trump's continuing resolution - without any protection against his health care cuts or his growing illegality - is a mistake. I voted NO.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person. The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person. People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives. And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.
