Apparently, Trump sycophant Pete Hegseth failed to grasp how despised his arrogant speech before military officers was. So now he wants to go after heroic veteran and astronaut Sen. Mark Kelly for speaking up for the Constitution? Can’t wait to see this former Fox weekend host out of a job.

Republicans like Bill Cassidy and Lindsey Graham are panicking on healthcare. DO NOT BELIEVE WHAT THEY ARE SAYING. Their plan is a non-plan and does nothing to fix our broken healthcare system.

Marjorie Taylor Greene never got “the joke that MAGA is about anything more than manipulation”—her failure to do so may be her one service to the nation, David Frum argues.

Fantastic news!

I had the pleasure of meeting Doug in Chicago during #DNC2024.
He’s the real deal, folks, always willing to lend a helping hand (like agreeing to speak with Women Forward on the spot), and he truly loves the state and people of Alabama!

I’ll help from Texas!

The BBC joins a long list of media companies now obeying in advance. I can't say I'm surprised or at this point even angry. It is a structural flaw in legacy media

All I can do is promise that Democracy Docket will never bow down or bend a knee. It will remain unapologetically pro-democracy.
NEWS --> BBC confirms to me that they did edit a line out of historian @rutgerbregman.com's speech. It called Trump "the most openly corrupt president in US history."

BBC also confirms this was done on the advice of lawyers. So Trump's threats worked.

New piece:

Trump’s Fury at BBC Gets Unnerving Results with Pro-MAGA Edit Stunner
First, British Broadcasting Corporation execs resigned after Trump complained about a segment. Now the BBC edited out a line from a historian that was critical of Trump. Where does this end?

This is decades of Republican health care policy in a nutshell.

They are in lockstep when it comes to taking away Americans’ health care, but can’t manage to come together to offer any ideas that would make health care more affordable for all.

Thanksgiving dinner is going to cost you about 10% more this year, according to a new report.

Many Americans voted for Trump because they thought he’d lower costs. He has totally failed.

You have to ask, why was Witkoff chosen for this critically important role of special envoy to Putin? He had no diplomatic or foreign policy experience. No education on those subjects. So of all people, why him? I think what we all surmised is clear - Putin wanted Witkoff.

It's way past time to #EndCitizensUnited. Robert Reich just posted a way that avoids SCOTUS and a Constitutional Amendment.

I just wrote this letter to my State AG. I encourage everyone to write to theirs.

Sen. Mark Kelly told NPR "it just doesn't make any sense" for him to face a military court-martial after he and other Democratic lawmakers released a video reminding active-duty troops that they don't have to follow illegal orders.
Sen. Mark Kelly: Trump and Hegseth don't 'understand the Constitution'
Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., and other congressional Democrats released a video last week letting service members know they can refuse illegal orders. Kelly is now being investigated for misconduct.

This - Bondi damn well knows she's using an illegal, unconfirmed lawyer, to file charges that were PUBLICLY incited (none will pass muster).

Hold em all to account.
The incompetent Attorney General, pedophile protector Bondi, should be disbarred along with the grossly incompetent Halligan. Contempt for the Court.

Chaco Canyon is one of the most important living cultural landscapes on the planet and we have long called for its permanent protection. It's not about the past–it’s about the generations to come. I’ll continue to fight for it because it is a place worth protecting.

Trump and Republicans have thrown millions of Americans off their health care and laid off thousands of federal workers. All while costs skyrocket and working families struggle to put food on the table. I’ll keep fighting to lower costs and protect New Mexico's federal workers.
