To be fair, turning a blind eye to abuse is kind of Gym’s thing

“Should Max Miller resign?” Jim Jordan: “He’s a good man. I’m helping him get re-elected.” Kasie: “He’s accused of throwing boiling water on his ex, held a gun to her head, fractured their daughter’s collarbone…”🤔 Jordan: *stammers helplessly as she plays his Platner comments*

Hinojosa: That is Greg Abbott’s record. That’s why the polling shows people want change. They know Greg Abbott. They know he’s been there 12 years, and they will not elect him to another four. That’s the opportunity we have in this election.

It's all about priorities. The tech bros gave politicians a lot of money.

RFK Jr yelling at Dana Bash sounds like a rabid dog barking

Also, heads up: going to try to do an AMA tomorrow evening. Sorry for the late notice - I’ve been absolutely swamped this week/weekend

I love this. Every blue state should be doing everything in its power to max out the vote.

Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger announced Friday that she has restored voting rights for 66,085 people who otherwise wouldn’t be able to vote due to past felony convictions. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

We are watching, in real time, the biggest fuck-up by any president in the history of the United States of America.

Some really encouraging Senate polls… 📍Georgia 🔵 Jon Ossoff: 56% 🔴 Mike Collins: 43% 📍North Carolina 🔵 Roy Cooper: 53% 🔴 Michael Whatley: 44% 📍Ohio 🔵 Sherrod Brown: 53% 🔴 Jon Husted: 45% 📍Iowa 🔵 Josh Turek: 50% 🔴 Ashley Hinson: 46% Keep organizing. Keep fighting.

The GOP is desperately trying to rewrite history, but just a reminder that Donald Trump was president during the lockdowns, and he awarded Fauci a presidential commendation for his work on COVID. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

This was intentional. First drones, now missiles. Russia is gauging NATO’s (specifically the US) response to these violations. Every time they strike far Western Ukraine, they get data on Polish operating procedures - alerts, jets scrambled, communications with allies, etc.

Another late night preparing for what comes next in the fight for free and fair elections. Thanks to everyone who has supported Democracy Docket this month. If you haven't yet signed up, now would be a great time to do so. demdock.com/4w6emld Thanks. Marc

The postponed Blanche confirmation vote is a win in and of itself. A big win. History will remember that we made our voices heard, and that his own party rejected him. That matters!

I'm old enough to remember when polio put my friends into iron lungs. We dutifully lined up at school to get vaccinated. We eradicated the disease. We protected the common good and saved lives. What RFK Jr. is doing to public health in America is a disgrace.

Ken Paxton hasn’t debated in over a decade. I wonder why. Maybe it’s because he’d have to explain how his corruption crisis became Texas’ affordability crisis. James Talarico is ready. Paxton is still hiding. Debate him. Or keep running.

Hey I know inflation is out of control and a lot of folks can’t afford basic necessities, but at least we’re tackling waste fraud and abuse by buying… *checks notes* 250 Escalades for the government.

Biden depleted our stockpiles. It’s a lie that our stockpiles are depleted. The people leaking this should be in jail. This is some insane mental gymnastics even for Mike Waltz

WELKER: Is America backing away from a larger attack bc our stockpile has been depleted? WALTZ: We have to take a step back. A lot of our stockpiles were depleted because of Biden WELKER: But you acknowledge they're depleted? WALTZ: No. And the people leaking this nonsense deserve to be in jail

Why is ABC doing false stories based on Russian propaganda?

Mitch McConnell hasn’t been seen or heard from in 6 weeks(!) in the hospital. Yet he still has a job, still getting paid, and getting unlimited world class healthcare. The man who voted against a living wage, against universal healthcare, and against guaranteed paid leave—is now getting all three.

HOMAN: I wouldn't say that mistakes were made. We'll see. BASH: Well, we've seen with our own eyes that mistakes were made. Deadly mistakes were made. At least 5 of them.

Happy 1st Birthday Blue!💙

The momentum is real. Voters are done with the chaos, the cruelty, the corruption, and the grift. In 100 days, we’re flipping the House, holding the line, and sending a message that can’t be ignored. Organize. Donate. Vote early. Talk to everyone you know. #BlueWaveIn100Days

In 75% of US industries, fewer corporations control more of the business than 20 years ago. That's especially true in the food industry. Just four corporations control 54% of the fresh-cut salad industry, including Taylor Fresh Foods. We're seeing in real time the danger of monopolization.

Unbelievable. They clearly don’t understand the Iranian regime if they think economic pressure is going to work. Iran understands they have the leverage here. They’ll keep playing Trump like a puppet until he gets all the way in, or all the way out of the war. Hopefully out.

There are now 100 days until the midterms. Trump will only get more unhinged and more authoritarian over these next few months as he feels his power start to slip. It’s up to us to overcome whatever he throws at us and deliver a victory so decisive no one can undermine it.

My latest: I often find myself imploring the pro-democracy community to take action — to unite around an idea, a lawsuit or a strategy to protect free and fair elections. newsletters.democracydocket.com/building-com...
