NEW: @hillaryclinton.bsky.social doesn't mince words. When she told Democracy Docket that the GOP is a "cult" that "can't win a fair fight," she meant it. To Clinton, the answer to fighting back against these Republican tactics is obvious: Democrats need to play a game of their own.

Hillary Clinton: Trump’s GOP ‘can't win a fair fight’
“[Trump] can't win a fair fight and his Republican Party, which has become a cult answering only to him, can't win a fair fight,” Clinton said.

BREAKING: In a win for Alabama voters, a federal court blocked the state from enacting its 2023 congressional map, which would have diluted the voting power of Black Alabamians, from being used in the 2026 midterms. The ruling will likely be appealed directly to the Supreme Court.

Following massive backlash over the leaked terms of Trump’s Iran negotiations, Trump is now claiming he told his team not to rush a deal because “time is on our side” — while once again attacking Obama, who actually managed to secure an Iran deal without starting a war or shutting down the Strait.

Instead of using the millions of dollars Congress approved to fund America 250 celebrations, the admin diverted that money to President Trump’s private “Freedom 250” fund. The president may be ok selling out to wealthy donors – but the people will not foot the bill. We're investigating the truth.
