The Trump administration planned to kick thousands of American seniors off of their disability benefits.

We pushed back — and now, they're backing off.

Public pressure works. Keep fighting back.
Social Security scraps plan to limit disability benefits after uproar
The policy would have fundamentally altered who qualifies for the two federal disability programs by eliminating or limiting a person’s age as a factor to consider.

Marjorie Taylor Greene has been hated by the left for years and never feared for her life. She’s been hated by the right for two days and had to hire security.

This morning I wrote to Democracy Docket premium members about why I always said we could defeat the new Texas map and the importance of not giving up on winning voting and election cases in court.

Trump on Jerome Powell: "I'd love to fire his ass. He should be fired. The only thing Scott [Bessent] is blowing it on is the Fed. The rates are too high, Scott. And if you don't get it fixed fast, I'm going to fire your ass."

Immigrants help feed and build our communities, they enrich our lives. I agree with Rep Swalwell (D-CA) we don’t need a Ivy League, investment banker nepo congressman like Rep Gill (R-TX) telling us we need more laws to deport people when DHS already doesn’t follow the law.

Jessica: This backfiring with the gerrymandering is a big deal. Trump asked Abbott to cheat for him. They try, they fail. And a Trump-appointed judge even helped with that. So now it looks like Republicans aren’t going to net any seats. It looks like Democrats could end up with an extra three seats.

It really is disgusting that Trump can insult, berate, single out, threaten, and demean female reporters on a daily basis for asking fair and legitimate questions and you can’t find a single Republican woman in Congress to say it is inappropriate behavior.

AOC: Trump has been saying the economy is booming, but it’s really only seven tech companies. They’re driving this growth in just one sector: AI.

So the entire economic growth can be tracked down to seven companies and their AI expansion…

Listen…If y’all want to talk honesty, then let’s be honest about all of it.

The promises, the hypocrisy, the receipts.

Because what you campaigned on and what you’re doing? Two very different things.

Trump didn’t need a discharge petition to release the MLK Jr., JFK, or Earhart files.

So why are the Epstein files the one set he refuses to touch?

Under a totalitarian fascist regime, the idea historically has been that anything you do to even mildly inconvenience agents of the totaliatarian fascist regime is automatically illegal and warrants extended custody and even imprisonment, whether or not it violates any statute
