I knew I saw this somewhere before. Funny that it’s almost exactly what’s actually happening now.

@barackobama.bsky.social: "When I was POTUS, I suppose I could have simply unilaterally ordered the military to go into some red state and harass and intimidate a governor or cut off funding for states that didn't vote for me... but that is contrary to how I think our democracy is supposed to work."

Sanders: The other day, Trump said, “We are living in the best economy in the history of the world.” Well, he’s right — for him and his billionaire friends, he’s exactly right. But not for ordinary Americans.

Because DHS paramilitaries are masked, heavily armed, poorly trained, and have been terrorizing Americans for months. Because Americans don't want to vote at gunpoint. #holdfast

Sanders: The American people do not want this country to be an authoritarian society or an oligarchy. We have our differences, that’s what democracy is about—we argue it out. We don’t throw people who disagree in jail. We don’t intimidate the media. We don’t send ICE agents to shoot people.

Ask for the last election to be checked for fraud. Not the prior election. They are misdirecting. There are people. Who have found irregularities in the last election. Check that out Congress.

Ten out of eleven U.S. recessions happened under Republican presidents.
And yet part of this country somehow is indoctrinated into believing Republicans are better with the economy.
We need strong Democrats to reverse course in messaging.

The New York Times just launched a new "newsletter about the law and the courts." They are calling it "The Docket."
The Times may not care that Democracy Docket has been publishing "On the Docket" and "Daily Docket" for years, but I believe our 400,000 subscribers might.
More on this tomorrow.

🚨BREAKING: An election-denying former Donald Trump campaign staffer who was subpoenaed by the FBI over his role in the attempt to steal the 2020 election is now taking credit for writing the sweeping voter suppression bill passed by the House Wednesday that could disenfranchise millions.
Election denier involved in fake electors plot wrote much of SAVE America Act, Trump-aligned think tank claims
“I’m here to do everything I can to make this work,” Thomas Lane wrote in a December 2020 email to other organizers of the Trump campaign’s fake electoral plot in Arizona.

Someone was abducted at 10 AM by ICE on Central Ave. Their coworker says they’ve lived here for over 20 years, are documented, and have 3 kids who were born here.
Don’t be fooled by headlines when they’ve been lying to us the whole time. We still need you out patrolling until every agent is gone.

Attorney General Pam Bondi tells a member of a co-equal branch of government during a public hearing: “You don’t tell me anything, you washed-up loser lawyer.” The disdain for our own government is appalling. This administration is destroying our democracy.

So when Pam Bondi is asked why they don’t investigate the crimes in the Epstein files, she screams there is NO EVIDENCE THAT DONALD TRUMP COMMITTED A CRIME. You know what that means? She knows there IS evidence but won’t look for it. And folks, are hints about some of those kids getting murdered.
