We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.
When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

No one is covering the threats to our democracy like the 20-person team at Democracy Docket. No venture capital, no corporate overloads, no compromises. Just pro-democracy news, information and analysis.

🚨MAJOR BREAKING: In a major lie, Trump claimed that Obama and Comey “made up” the Epstein files.
FACT CHECK: The first federal Epstein probe was under George W. Bush. The second? July 2019 - UNDER TRUMP. Obama had ZERO to do with it. Share to expose Trump’s lies!

Your Prime Day reminder that half of Amazon warehouse workers struggle with food & housing costs.
A third have had to rely on government assistance like SNAP — which is about to get cut.
If Bezos can spend $50M on a wedding, Amazon can afford to treat its workers with dignity.

This is an important reminder: even the LAPD acknowledged yesterday that everything was peaceful.
Then Trump brought the chaos.

This is not ok!!!
It's so weird how AI is inevitable and amazing but only if we let it steal everything and be completely unregulated.
New from 404 Media: Republicans are trying to cram a ban on AI regulation into the Budget Reconciliation bill, which would stop states from regulating AI entirely for 10 years.

Spinning is a natural behavior that helps clean their fur and dislodge trapped air or food. Otters rely on pristine fur for insulation in chilly waters. 🦦

If you think a just-fertilized ovary is entitled to life but are indifferent to what happens to a kidnapped 4-year-old with cancer, sent to a dangerous country without meds, you don’t give a fuck about the lives of children. You are just in a cult that fetishizes being against abortions.

If Kilmar Abrego Garcia had only beaten Capitol police officers half to death with a Trump flag on his way into pissing on the halls on Congress while looking to hang a Vice President—he’d be free right now.

NEW: The specialist unit searching for Ukrainian children kidnapped by Russia has been AXED by Elon Musk.
Just when you think he can’t stoop lower.
19,500 children have been stolen from Ukraine & sent to Russia. The unit at Yale had already rescued 100s - but its funding has now been halted.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

International Women’s Day is almost over, but THE ABCS OF WOMEN’S HISTORY by Rio Cortez, illustrated by Lauren Sommer, is relevant and wonderful all year long! It’s a bright, bold book that centers the changemakers, troublemakers, and BIPOC who have driven all of our history forward. Check it out!
