Do the laws not apply to the rich and wealthy? Kleptocracy? Quid pro quo. Bribery. You name it. All of this is wrong and illegal. Shameful.

🔥 @timmiller.bsky.social : “You can’t tell me it’s a real democracy if by exec order the governor can nullify your vote… in Tennessee — the idea that NASHVILLE & MEMPHIS would not have representation? How is that democracy? That’s preposterous.” @GovBillLee @MarshaBlackburn

This entire thing is ridiculous, but Lee also demonstrated extremely poor generalship at Gettysburg that resulted in a third of his Army becoming casualties. He also didn’t take over command of the Army of N. VA until 14 months after the war started.

Stupid, ignorant...not usually words associated with the president.

In case you’re wondering, this is a real post.

The US should have a mechanism to recall a president, by the people.

There have been more mass shooters over the last 40 years than there have been non-citizens who have voted.

Weird for him to post this for many reasons, but one is the fact that he’s owned pools his entire life but has never been in one because he doesn’t want to be seen with his shirt off.

Why aren't Republican states letting voters decide on redistricting?

The House passed a bill that will finally allow families on SNAP to purchase rotisserie chicken. Unfortunately, it also cuts the program's funding by $187 billion.

What a sad, sausage party of losers, con men and dupes. Bye bye!

What is happening in Louisiana right now is both a redistricting power grab and a dry run for authoritarian election subversion this Fall. The governor has declared a state of emergency to suspend the congressional elections because he doesn't like the current map.

What an evil piece of shit. I cannot wait to take over.

It cost me $177 to renew my driver license today. Requiring certain ID to vote without making that ID easy, accessible, and free is 100% a poll tax.

Sen. Jon Ossoff on Trump: "I deeply and sincerely regret the immense damage that this incompetent president has done to our standing in the world...to our national power, to our economic power, and to our alliances through his and his team's rank incompetence, and amateurism."

🚨BREAKING: A new lawsuit is challenging Louisiana’s decision to suspend congressional primaries already underway — arguing the state is illegally nullifying votes and plunging an active election into chaos following the Supreme Court’s gutting of the VRA. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Why are we not more upset/angry about SCOTUS 86ing the Voting Rights Act yesterday? In a single illegal, immoral, poorly argued (Alito) decision they have disenfranchised Black, Brown and Indigenous voters. This should enrage all of us and have us determined to fight this as best we can.

REP. @aoc.bsky.social to Lindell TV on banning congress from trading stocks: “Insider trading in this institution is just horrible… people should not be coming here to make money. We need to force the issue." Anyone who won’t back this is unfit for office.

Another really long day. I am doing everything I can to spread the word about the threats to democracy and how to fight back. You can help me by subscribing to Democracy Docket for free and sharing its content. Thanks. bit.ly/4qmEiFz

There it is. Any questions?

Our current economy is rigged. It just is. A new report shows that 88 of the largest companies in America, including: Amazon Citigroup Haliburton Kohl's Palantir PayPal PG&E Southwest Airlines Tesla United Airlines Disney paid ZERO corporate income tax last year.

"Red State" is a con. No such thing. 57% of Texans didn't vote at all 2024. Any state where more than 50% of the people want so little to do with politicians they don't even vote, should not be called a "Red State" or a "Blue State". Most people in "Red States" aren't red at all.

Everything is so stupid and it makes me a little furious Thank you for your attention to this matter

Today’s SCOTUS ruling is a betrayal of our basic democratic values as a country—turning back the clock on hard-won civil rights victories. This isn’t just about Louisiana; this will have nationwide impacts on Congressional districting and voter representation for generations.

The Court's decision overlooks reality for a self-serving right-wing fantasy and it will live in infamy.

In the 24 hours since the Supreme Court's majority ruled to demolish the Voting Rights Act's remaining protections, Louisiana and Tennessee have already signaled that they'll redraw their congressional maps with the clear effect of shutting Black voters out.

Thom Tillis is doubling down on his latest Trump personnel ultimatum — that he won’t confirm for attorney general anyone who excuses the events of Jan. 6.

🔴PAY ATTENTION: The Governor of Louisiana is declaring an emergency to cancel an ongoing election so that his party can rig the rules moving forward. This is not just about redistricting... www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

🤡 Yuri Ushakov stated that Vladimir Putin directly told Donald Trump that Kyiv was resorting to overt terrorist methods by attacking purely civilian targets in Russia.

Some of Seattle's top NIMBYs live in the Laurelhurst neighborhood, where they have managed to force Seattle Children's Hospital patients coming by life flight to land a MILE AWAY from the hospital and transfer to ambulance because NIMBYs don't like the noise. www.tiktok.com/@voterondavi...

BELOW: Six good reasons why Supreme Court justices should not be appointed for life.

Republican voters don’t want to know the truth so they choose to consume propaganda. Elected republicans don’t have anything to offer the American people so they choose brainwashed voters with gerrymandering.

This all seems…questionable. But, regardless, it just underscores that the DOJ was full of shit when it said last year there was nothing left to investigate.

Donald Trump is now telling someone else to fix the war that he claimed he could end in one day.

🚨 THIS SHOULD SET OFF EVERY ALARM: Louisiana is about to pull the rug mid-election. Let’s be clear what’s happening. 📌Absentee ballots already out 📌Early voting starts May 2 📌Election day is May 16 And just days before voting begins, Gov Landry is planning to suspend the primary entirely.

Let's call the SCOTUS decision what it is: racist gerrymandering. Republican extremists are trying to choose which votes in our country matter.

NAACP - “Today’s decision is a devastating blow to what remains of the Voting Rights Act, and a license for corrupt politicians who want to rig the system by silencing entire communities. The Supreme Court betrayed Black voters, they betrayed America, and they betrayed our democracy.”

We are very far off the cliff here folks. 🇺🇸 www.reuters.com/world/us/lou...

Big fat whiny baby Trump. So sick of his daily BS!

Home runs hit off of Shohei Ohtani by the last 180 batters to face him during regular season games: 0.

They’re prosecuting a man for writing in seashells but not the men who systemically trafficked and raped children. Release the Epstein files.

as long as john roberts has his majority, there is simply no pro democracy reform that will survive the supreme court. none.

The Supreme Court is apparently only there to remove the rights of women and minorities, at this point.

The Supreme Court just weakened the Voting Rights Act, again. This wasn’t unexpected. It was warned about. And still… barely a headline. A quiet step away from protecting voters, and toward pretending inequality fixes itself. That silence matters. Do better, be better, Vote so we can stop this.

This newly insane, unprecedented legal stalling does nothing but delay our deal with the receiver to take control of InfoWars. We now expect new traps in Alex Jones' amoral war to deny paying the Sandy Hook families, but we're freshly surprised by the U.S. legal system's appetite to put up with it.

Dude. You’re literally in Texas. You are addicted to gerrymandering bro. 😭😭😭

To be clear about what just happened: The Trump administration sent armed FBI agents to abduct a 78-year-old doctor and former federal public health worker from his home and stripped him because the brainwashed right-wing base, hopped up on a literal conspiracy theory, wants scalps.
