After 10 long days, the hearing challenging Texas' gerrymandering ended. By the end, all of legacy media had vanished. But Democracy Docket stayed to keep you informed about just how far Republicans went to manipulate the state’s maps.

Trump and Johnson could be protecting military paychecks. Democrats have a bill to do it. But their top priority is blocking the release of the Epstein files.

Hey -- folks:

If any of you are on TikTok, there's someone pretending to be me using "joannebfreeman" -- and supposedly, even asking for money.

IT'S NOT ME.

I've just reported them.
Please do the same.

Nothing says America First like bailing out Argentina while making healthcare unaffordable for 20+ million Americans.

Or signing an Article 5 protection treaty with Qatar coz they bribed you with a plane, while screwing over longstanding NATO allies.

Folks, I think America First might be a scam.

We should tell Trump that Obama went to school at the Electoral College, and he'll just dismantle it.

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

The news of the week makes it sadly clear that the legacy media is fully capitulating. I started Democracy Docket in 2020 to be fearlessly independent and pro-democracy.

It will never bow down. It will never give in. It will never compromise

Our democracy is not self-executing. It depends on us all as citizens, regardless of our political affiliations, to stand up and fight for the core values that have made this country the envy of the world.

Yes, RFK Jr is a monster. A cruel, ignorant, pathologically dishonest, conspiratorial monster. And it’s not surprising RFK Jr is where he is now. A cruel, ignorant, pathologically dishonest, conspiratorial monster chose him, nominated him.

Vote in 2026 like your life depends upon it. Bcuz it does.

J.B. Pritzker is 100% right.

Please listen to him, pay attention, and join us in speaking out against authoritarianism and to protect free and fair elections.
Pritzker on Trump sending troops into cities: "He has other aims other than fighting crime... he would like to stop the elections in 2026 or frankly take control of those elections. He'll just claim there's some problem with an election and then he's got troops on the ground that can take control."

This notion that Republicans are coasting right now and the wind is beneath the sails of Donald Trump is just not true.

Joni Ernst is not going to run for reelection in Iowa. There was a special election in Iowa earlier this week and the Democrats have now broken the Republican super majority.
