The RIFs that began Friday will reportedly cut 65% of CISA’s 2,540 employees, one of the dumbest and most dangerous moves imaginable. CISA defends the nation’s cyber and critical infrastructure. Destroying it now only makes sense if you’re afraid of election integrity.

Remember to vote 11/4/25! Vote every Republican out! Governors, state assembly, senate, highway department, dog catcher….

Protect the political maps from being rigged!

Vote!

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

More than half of ALL government shut down days in the history of America have come under just one president.

Simply put, the man is a terrible leader.

Good people need to start outing their ICE family members, neighbors, and community members.

They need to be made into pariahs in the places decent Americans gather.

@repstansbury.bsky.social: "This is gangster activity. The president is trying to shield pedophiles by calling and threatening members of Congress. We need more members of Congress, whether it's the Epstein files, the shutdown, health care, democracy, the rule of law, to just fucking do their jobs."

Little Johnson you are like the little kid who puts his hands over his ears and starts talking loudly saying I can’t hear you!

In the end you and Rump have laser focused the country on the fact that the maggot republicans are aiding and abetting sex traffickers and child rapists!

Vote 11/4/25!

Define a false equivalence! Bot sides are not the same!

Robert Reich @rbreich.bsky.social · 16h

The mainstream media loves making it seam like dysfunction in Washington is coming from both parties.

Hello?

Much of the GOP no longer accepts the rule of law, or the norms of democracy, or the legitimacy of the opposing party.

Enough of the false equivalence.

Lock her ass up! She and the MAGA POS involved in stealing our votes are a primary reasons to vote in force on 11/4/25 to stop the corrupt gerrymandering and protect our future votes! Vote now or our votes may not be worth the ballots we write them on 11/3/26!

Vote!

Dear WH Press Corp
You should be ashamed of yourself.
Start demanding answers. Portland isn’t on fire. Chicago isn’t at war. Seattle isn’t thanking him.
ANTIFA isn’t assaulting ICE agents
Hold him accountable for the lies.
Refuse to ask anything else until he answers these.
Demand the proof

Remove Little Johnson now!

After 10 long days, the hearing challenging Texas' gerrymandering ended. By the end, all of legacy media had vanished. But Democracy Docket stayed to keep you informed about just how far Republicans went to manipulate the state’s maps.
