Many of you are asking how you can help me. My only ask is this: Spread the word about the threats to democracy and how we can fight back. Tell everyone to subscribe to Democracy Docket and share its content. Thanks. bit.ly/4a7l1TR

@cwebbonline Appoint a new Senator. Or let them know you want to speak with McConnell. In person.

MAGA grandma calls ICE on Hispanic workers—for repaving public road. "None of you are legal, I looked," she says. "You're all illegal—ICE is coming." "I'm from here!" "Go back to where you came from!" All while abusing her dog—visibly choking him with leash as she flails arms. Incident occurred on Ponds Edge Drive in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania—about 25 miles southwest of Philadelphia Geremias doesn't have an account on this platform—so posting first full length and credited video here to help raise awareness.

@Brcremer "Democracy In Chains" by Nancy MacLean. They are changing the laws so it won't matter who is in charge, if they don't want a change it won't happen. 70 year history/lead up to the MAGA movement.

America has never been susceptible to communism. It has always been susceptible to fascism. Know your history. Know your context. Know smokescreens when you see them. The threat of communism has always been a smokescreen used by fascists in America.

Union leaders were some of the first people sent to Dachau. The unions were all replaced with the German Labor Front which had the same logo as DOGE—14 teeth and all.

The law does not require legal proof, to initiate the process. If the Governor believes the seat is vacant, he can call the election and start the process. Republicans would then file and injunction and be required to provide proof. If they do, the process ends, no harm no foul. The Governor could also take any number of other actions: -Requesting Capitol Police preform a welfare check. -Formally write to request the Sergeant-at-Arms locate the Senator from Kentucky for matters of State business. -Request Kentucky State law enforcement investigate, on grounds of concern of defrauding the State of Kentucky. -Summon a grand jury and through the Kentucky AG investigate potential crimes such forgery, falsely exercising the Senators authority, unlawful concealment etc. We do not know when McConnell’s health became so bad, that he was not making his own decisions. Therefore there is ample legal grounds for the Governor, not only to know his current health status, but the full picture of his health. If McConnell was not of sound mind prior to the event, the Governor must ensure none of his staff were issuing decisions on behalf of the Senator, using public funds, using office funds, or enacting Senate business without the Senators authority.

So, where are the bloviating Benghazi banshees now?

Tough but fair.

@RYP__ Trump mentioned 6 stories underground.

Question. Am I looking at three floors, approximately 25 feet high? Most underground? AI estimates three floors totaling 44-48 ft and 50- 78,000 sq feet total.

Always nice to be reminded periodically that our ambassador to NATO was once involved with a scam company that marketed toilet seats for well-endowed men

Every weekend, my parents stand in Times Square for Ukraine. Sometimes the crowd is small. But as long as they are there, Ukraine is not forgotten.

Why is JD Vance in Kentucky?

@Gianl1974 I hope they show how Lindsey Graham disrespected Michael Fanone and others afterwards!

The brutality inflicted on those officers is about to be broadcast at a scale the White House can't spin away. Millions will see what actually happened. Three-time Oscar winner Sean Penn is writing and directing a film about a Capitol Police officer caught up in the January 6th insurrection — and Bradley Cooper is set to star in what is shaping up to be one of the most politically charged films in years. The untitled Warner Bros. project centers on a real cop whose identity is being kept under wraps, but Penn was spotted sitting alongside outspoken hero officer Michael Fanone at the 2022 House Select Committee hearings. Fanone was a one-time Trump supporter who was beaten, tased, and dragged into the crowd on January 6th — and who has spent years trying to make sure the country doesn't forget what happened to him and his fellow officers. Penn, who wrote the screenplay, has described the film as "an unexpected story about friendship." Don't let the soft framing fool you. This is a man who called Trump "an enemy of mankind" and showed up to the Jan. 6 hearings as "just another citizen" to see if justice would be served. He's been working on this for years. Production is targeting mid-2027, pending Bradley Cooper's schedule — he's currently attached to the Ocean's Eleven prequel with Margot Robbie. Warner Bros. is acquiring the film, fresh off its Oscar sweep with Penn's One Battle After Another. Here's what matters: Trump pardoned the people who did this. Many of them ended up back in jail. He called them warriors, hostages, patriots. He called January 6th "a day of love." And now the world is about to be reminded of the actual truth.

If we nominate Trump, we will get destroyed.......and we will deserve it.

@GabrielSterling Didn't he ask Raffensperger for absentee ballots to be thrown out or not counted? This is your area of expertise, so you must be aware. The hypocrisy in the GOP is off the charts, I wasn't expecting it from you. Maybe you know something I don't, but I think the Senator did harm.

Sad news. Sen. Lindsey Graham passed away after a brief illness. Prayers for he and his family. wsj.com/politics/linds…

Michael Fanone's take on Lindsey Graham is one of the most powerful I've read:

I have questions: Why does a “sudden illness” require the FBI? Did you find a bullet labeled with “ANTIFA” near the body? Will you see Lindsey in Valhalla?

I’ve found countless coffee cups with people’s names left on our streets. If someone knowingly litters like this, should there be consequences? Santos, do better. What do you think the punishment should be? Share your thoughts in the comments. 👇#CleanLAWithMe #starbucks #LosAngeles @Starbucks
