Many of you are asking how you can help me. My only ask is this: Spread the word about the threats to democracy and how we can fight back. Tell everyone to subscribe to Democracy Docket for free and share its content with everyone you know. Thanks. bit.ly/4a7l1TR

The next time you think one person can’t make much of a difference, just remember how much Donald Trump has fucked up literally everything.

One day America will have a real president again, there to serve the people, not feed his deeply broken ego. Can you remember what a real president acts like?

The idea that the President of the United States could publish an image of himself as the Messiah and no news outlet covers it is the biggest indictment of the American free press.

Trump and Hegseth learning in real time that sovereign countries are a lot harder to intimidate than battered wives and United States senators… Not the same thing.

Yep. Too bad. Hegseth is one of many things we tried to warn the country about.

Why is this only happening now? It should have been done decades ago. They won't pass it, they'll never give up the money they make while in office.

Gomez to Gabbard and Racliffe: "If the president can just ignore what you're doing, why do you even have a job? Why even advise him? You're saying the president can say tomorrow China is an imminent threat no matter what the intelligence says, and then he can take his own action."

Medicare for All - "That's socialism!" Social Security - "That's socialism!" Debt free education - "That's socialism!" Universal childcare - "That's socialism!" $1 billion per day on a war in the Middle East that no one wants, while millions of people at home struggle. "That's just how it is."

Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and it’s good she’s gone. But this doesn’t change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.

Trump & Co have been talking about US military action for weeks, if not months, and positioning the assets to do it - long before such intelligence ever could have become a factor. This is transparent nonsense.

The only question left by the Supreme Court decision on tariffs is: What the fuck is wrong with Thomas, Alito, and Kavenaugh? The Constitution could not say more clearly that only Congress has the power to impose taxes. Can't those three justices umderstand a simple, direct English sentence?

Collins stood silently in the Oval Office clutching a red MAGA hat as Trump told lies about our elections and repeated his call for the federal government to take over vote counting in certain parts of the country. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/susa...

Susan Collins hands Trump the 50th vote against free and fair elections

When it comes to free and fair elections, Collins is as conservative and anti-voting rights as they come.

The moon and Jupiter (green circle is not a UFO but an internal reflection of the moon in the lens!). Even though Jupiter is 82 times larger in diameter than the moon, it is 1,776 times farther away, allowing the puny moon to outshine it! No matter how small you think you are, keep shining! #Maine

It’s hard to believe a president would time an illegal military attack to distract the public’s attention, but today is the statutory deadline for DOJ to release its report on the Epstein file production. Maybe it is just a coincidence.

I don't think people are really processing the fact that the sitting U.S. President and his team — and maybe the Supreme Court — and maybe half the Congress — want to force us to accept that we should obey the President and not the Constitution. I don't know what news would be bigger than that.

Trump is making a conscious decision not to fund SNAP. This isn’t an accident — it’s intentional. It shows exactly how he feels about the American people: we’re disposable to him unless we serve his interests.

Never in the history of the US has any president openly and repeatedly called for the investigation, arrest & prosecution of his political opponents. While many continue to shrug these things off and normalize them, I will never stop pointing out that this is what autocrats do.
