Meta is renewing its threats against employees, telling them today that they will hunt for leakers and tolerate zero leaks.

Want to know how that is going? Three Meta employees who I’ve never spoken to before just cold messaged/emailed me offering me to be sources.

TikTok is now officially shut down in the US. I believe the ban by Congress violates the First Amendment, clauses 2 – 5. It also seems to violate free enterprise and laissez-faire. Even more troubling is the prospect of TikTok reopening under the convicted felon and his rules: quid pro quo, folks!

Why this day & these actions were not a deal breaker for millions of Americans is beyond me. It proves over & over how morally bankrupt MAGA is.

Being a traitor against your country is not a positive character trait.

I hope the Dems step up tomorrow, non violently.

They have to be silent. If there is evidence, it must come from the right agency & be irrefutable. If a party brought it forward, it muddies the legal waters, creates more dissent.

My first principle for the new year: When it comes to issues involving democracy, I do not seek compromise with Republicans. There is no middle ground between a firefighter and an arsonist.

Each time I have sat down to write something since the election, I am bothered by this recurring phrase that I simply cannot get out of my head.

So, I am going to just say it out loud: we are on our own.

If this cartoon is available, @democracydocket.com would like to publish it on its site.

If not, I hope @anntelnaes.bsky.social would be willing to create another one for Democracy Docket to publish. anntelnaes.substack.com/p/why-im-qui...

Robin Williams was a man I often tell others we didn't deserve. He was brilliant and could make you laugh as well as think critically, and much like George Carlin he helped to shape the way I think.
Robin Williams in Man of the Year, this scene feels especially poignant right now.
