MAGA: "Ha ha ha ha! New York City just elected a socialist. We are going to turn Zohran Mamdani into the face of the Democratic Party, a bogeyman, and a weight around the necks of all Democrats! Stupid play, suckers!"

TRUMP: "Mamdani is wonderful. He's going to make a great mayor."

MAGA: "What???"

No one is covering the GOP's scheme to rig congressional maps for 2026 as closely as Democracy Docket. It is providing gavel to gavel coverage of the ongoing hearing over whether the Texas gerrymander will be in place for the midterms.

Why do headlines say "norms shattered" when what is meant is "laws broken" or "Constitution violated"?

There are credible reports that federal agents may be replaying the 2020 playbook and surging into Portland with the goal of provoking conflict and violence in my hometown. I am in close contact with state and local officials to monitor this activity.

Ossoff: He never should have been confirmed by the senate and he needs to resign. It is one thing to be a skeptic or a reformer. It is quite another to be a fool…

Vaccines save lives. So why has the U.S. Government canceled over $1.2 billion worth of contracts to develop mRNA vaccines?

The official word is that they want to invest in "whole virus" vaccines instead - but that's 100-year-old tech, takes longer to develop, & can't adapt to changing viruses.

mRNA vaccines can be modified and produced cheaply and quickly. This doesn't only help us respond to pandemics better, it enables researchers to rapidly test different treatment strategies for many diseases such as cancer. Cutting mRNA funding slows all of health research and makes us all sicker.

Budzinski: Families making over $700,000 a year will see a boost of $12,000 almost entirely from tax cuts. Shockingly, households making $23,000 a year or less are set to lose about $1600 a year, mostly due to deep cuts to Medicaid and food assistance

Zohran Mamdani won because people are sick of:

1. Calculate-and-play-it-safe Democrats;

2. Christian Nationalism;

3. Republican xenophobia and their ICE Gestapo;

4. MAGA’s islamophobia; and

5. Politicians who talk about culture wars instead of the issues that affect ordinary people.
