The story Trump is telling about Portland is clearly 'untethered to the facts.' He is lying about our beautiful, peaceful city to justify a dangerous abuse of power & distract from his complete failure to make your life better.

The brave Secretary of War who had US service members literally rolling out the red carpet for Putin will now have them cleaning toilets on a Qatari Airforce base in Idaho. You think operational maintenance and housekeeping isn’t part of the deal Kushner cut? America First, baby.

THIS is how they steal the Midterms. If the systems are privately owned, even if there's an investigation the judicial fuckery will go so far beyond the actual election it might as well not even hit the docket.
How can we have free & fair elections if the counting machines aren't publicly owned?!?

No one is covering the GOP's scheme to rig congressional maps for 2026 as closely as Democracy Docket. It is providing gavel to gavel coverage of the ongoing hearing over whether the Texas gerrymander will be in place for the midterms.

First, it’s James Comey.
Now, it’s Letitia James.
Next, it could be any other Trump “enemy.”

The Trump-Bondi Justice Department is WEAPONIZED.

We’re outside of the Broadview ICE facility.

It’s clearer than ever before.

What’s happening in Illinois is an unprecedented, unlawful abuse of power.

“America First” means:
•$20B to Argentina to screw American farmers
•$38B to Israel for genocide
•$??B to Qatar for new Air Force base in Idaho

Meanwhile—US Service members stand in food lines because Trump’s government shutdown has them furloughed without pay. So much winning!
Are we great yet?🤔

Meiselas: Trump says he’s focusing right now on laying off the Democratic agencies and government employees, whatever that means. Again, completely pathetic behavior, and in normal times, this would be impeachable and/or 25th Amendment territory.
