Pro-Trump billionaires now own X, Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, the Washington Post, CBS, Fox, and the WSJ.

And it's about to get worse. Trump wants China to sell TikTok to a couple of pro-Trump billionaires who could do to it what Elon did to Twitter

Corporations, law firms, media companies, and some Congressional Democrats would rather surrender to Trump than fight.

Here’s the thing

Trump is a weak president pushing an unpopular agenda.

Dems should be picking fights, not shying away from them

This is very bad news. Louisiana won't even defend its own map in SCOTUS. It abandoned its own Black voters.

Those of us committed to defending the VRA are now entirely on our own. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Every decision by every Democrat can be traced back to how they answer one question

Just how dangerous is Donald Trump?

My law firm is currently litigating 52 voting and election cases in 23 states. This includes the Ohio case we filed on Friday night and the redistricting case challenging Texas' new congressional map.

I am thankful for our clients willing to wage these fights. They, not the lawyers, are the heroes.

Trump is gaslighting America about the economy. Today, he declared that Inflation was over. Well, the data and the price tags say something very different.

Here’s why he won’t get away with it

ProPublica identified more than 150 products that were exempted from import bans since 2013. Our list provides the names of the drugs or ingredients and their manufacturers, many of which are no longe...

Do you know how much CEO pay has skyrocketed since 1978?

100%? 500%?

Try 1,085%

Meanwhile, the $7.25/hr fed. minimum wage hasn't budged in 15 years and the tipped min. wage has been $2.13/hr since 1991.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.
