This is the most important political, legal and democracy story right now. Yet, it has garnered relatively little coverage from legacy media outlets. The outcome in these cases may decide whether we have free and fair elections in 2026. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/as-...

As Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis stated in 1933; “We can have democracy in this country or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of the few, but we cannot have both.” Today, at a time of unprecedented income & wealth inequality, his words ring truer than ever.

We lost more than that his last year as president. Not that anyone members that part. All we talk about is how people were forced to wear masks and kids had to go to school via computer for a few months. And it was hard to get a haircut. The 1.3 million people who died are completely forgotten.

All those private meetings between Witkoff and Putin are really paying off for the Kremlin.

At some point in the future, Witkoff should be prosecuted for this.

I see that CBS chose not to air this part. It probably explains much of what they did decide to air.

If major U.S. law firms had not so quickly surrendered to Donald Trump, this spring, his lawlessness might have been curbed, Fabio Bertoni writes.

TRUMP IN JULY, discussing plans to build a ballroom beside the White House: “It won’t interfere with the current building. It’ll be near it but not touching it — and pays total respect to the existing building, which I’m the biggest fan of." THE NEWS TODAY: Trump is demolishing the entire East Wing.

It certainly appears the United States murdered an innocent fisherman who was a husband and father to four children, claimed he was a "narco-terrorist," posted a video of the execution, and then made jokes about it

GOP hypocrisy perfectly summed up in two posts. Remember: it's only socialism when it's for school lunches or to help poor people, not when it's a bailout for those in overwhelmingly red states who are getting f**ked by #TrumpTariffs

"Not taking the mickey” Today’s @theageaustralia.bsky.social cartoon

In light of some of the discussions about Tyler Robinson, it's important to remember that people can be legally sane yet deeply mentally unwell at the same time. Many criminal defendants and convicts fall into this category, including the current president of the United States.

Again - the reason that the Good Friday Agreement locks in the ECHR is that the UK had repeatedly been held accountable by the European Court of Human Rights for human rights breaches during the Troubles - while national courts had failed to do so, even upholding miscarriages of justice

Watch every second of this. Our worst fears are here. With Trump’s new bill, the police state is no longer looming—it’s official. Expect more raids on a massive scale, shattered families, and a brutal crackdown on humanitarian protections.

again Swan, because he is not trained in the US interview school of obeisance to power, was able to ask follow-up questions and confront the president with facts.

Horrific scenes in #Gaza, with hundreds killed just for seeking aid; people are #starving and forcibly displaced; and senior Israeli officials use dehumanising language, proposing to concentrate Gazans into a mass detention camp. This has to stop and we must prevent #genocide. youtube.com

Files can’t be blackmailed. Files can’t be extorted. Files can’t be pardoned. Files can’t be bribed. Nothing can substitute for the release of all of the Epstein files.

Those on the high court often exercise caution in their choice of words. That is why it was striking when she used an audience of lawyers to deliver a stern message to the legal profession: stand up for democracy, take on the hard fights and do whatever you can to win.

No one gives someone a $400 million dollar jet for free without expecting anything in return. Be serious.
