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.

It’s the Feds making Portland look like a war zone— not the protesters.

And honestly, these protesters are brilliant. They’re flipping the whole authoritarian cosplay on its ass!

Guess that Qatari jet wasn’t a “gift” to Trump after all.
Screenshot of tweets. Mike Madrid writes: “Joe Biden was criticized for a Chinese balloon flying over our airspace. They’re giving Qatar an entire f’ing air base.” Below, Aaron Rupar’s tweet quotes Pete Hegseth saying on Fox News: “I’m also proud that today we’re signing a letter of acceptance to build a Qatari Emeri air force facility at the Mountain Home Airbase in Idaho.”

Hegseth and this administration do not want people to use mail in ballots which means most military officers will lose their right to vote as well if they don't stand up for their rights against this administration.

Federal employees across the government are now receiving layoff notices, a devastating outcome of Trump’s political games. It’s outrageous that he would use people’s livelihoods as pawns to “score political points”.

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.

“Illinois governor says we’re provoking actions that are unlawful,” Miller said on CNN. “If I put federal law enforcement and National Guard into a nice sleepy Southern town, is anyone gonna riot?”

A helpful visualization of how House Republicans spend their time.
Pie chart displaying how House Republicans spend their time. The chart is entirely green, signifying Republicans spend all their time on vacation, and no time working to stop the government shutdown, release the Epstein files, or lower costs.

If anyone can vote by absentee or mail in ballot, they should do that instead of by machine and then hand deliver the ballot to the town office and put it in the box if they can. F the postal service, computerized machines that are hackable & corruptible GOP officials.

Police and National Guard protecting their right to protest as well. Without it, they will have less freedom and they know it. We are all in this together.

I just watched the video of the Portland Cop threatening to arrest an ICE agent if they drive their truck through a crowd. Now I see this where the General of the Oregon National Guard says if they get called up they will protect the protesters. People are fed up.

Brigadier General Alan R. Gronewold made the comments to state lawmakers Sept. 30, and they drew notice on social media this week.

Donald Trump has been illegally shutting down the parts of government he doesn't like and firing tens of thousands of federal workers since Day One.

Republicans’ shutdown doesn't give him any more power to create chaos.

It’s workers and the American people who will suffer.
