I started Democracy Docket in 2020 to be fearlessly independent and unapologetically pro-democracy. The threats have changed since then, but its commitment has not.

It will never bow down. It will never compromise. It will never will never obey.

I may be the only lawyer targeted by Trump willing to speak on camera, but for me it wasn't a choice. All of us have an obligation to speak out against what Trump is doing.

Opposition is growing against the Trump-Musk chaos regime—and we’re not letting up.

I’ve spent like 3 hrs joy scrolling in social media this evening post #HandsOff protests and rallies. It’s giving me life to see people come together! This is a moral moment, not left or right, but right or wrong.
