I'm not a conservative commentator. No one pays me $150m to spike stories Trump doesn't like. No major network is making me the editor in chief.

I am just a lawyer who fights for democracy and built Democracy Docket from scratch. For $10 a month you can help it do its vital work. hubs.ly/Q03CbHTt0

Yet another reminder that when billionaires take control of media, it’s not a win for free speech.

It’s a win for oligarchy.

The super-rich won't hesitate to sell out the American public if it means getting merger approvals or deregulation that helps their bottom line.

I don’t think I’m being alarmist. If anything, I worry that we’ve become so inured to Trump’s madness that we’re not alarmist enough.

Elon Musk has begun funding the GOP's House and Senate campaigns for the 2026 midterms.

Musk — who threatened to launch a third party and support challengers to Republican incumbents during his dispute with Trump earlier this year — is now firmly back in the GOP's camp.

This is the moment when more than 30 million Americans received affordable healthcare in 2010.

Today, Republicans have voted to make healthcare UNAFFORDABLE for more than 40 million.

The #RepublicanHealthCareFailure and greed will cost thousands of lives.

Vote and make Trump a lame duck in 2026.

47% of Americans say they will have to cut back on Christmas.

Trump shrugs!

The ACA subsidies are set to expire 12/31/2025.

Trump rolls eyes!

“Affordability” is a real issue, not a Democratic Hoax as Trump thinks he can con you into believing.

It’s a sad, sad state of affairs when the Republicans refuse to negotiate at all and leave us all footing the bill with higher prices and worse care.

Instead of lowering premiums, Republicans chose instead to rip away healthcare funding, kick millions off insurance, and close rural hospitals.

Why? So they could give their billionaire buddies a tax break.

Today, they’ll have an opportunity to do the right thing. The American people are watching.
