Days after the WHCA dinner and legacy media still doesn't get it. Donald Trump is putting on a hat saying he's running in 2028, and they are sitting there eating a dinner.

This is why independent media like Democracy Docket is growing. Support its work. https://t.co/7W0yoPHmq2

If SCOTUS caves to Trump and guts mail-in voting months before the midterms, it will throw our elections into chaos.

That’s exactly what MAGA wants. The more Americans vote, the harder it is for Trump to cling to power.

Show up. Vote. We can’t let them win.

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

Putin

Last night Donald Trump released a declassified document that says his own intelligence community identified Putin as personally running an operation to defeat my father in 2020, built around a fake Burisma corruption scandal centered around me and executed through prominent Americans.

Trump tasked his personal lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, to fly to Kyiv and meet a known Russian agent.

The Americans who ran, laundered, and legitimized the operation:

Donald Trump. Rudy Giuliani. John Solomon. Joe DiGenova. Victoria Toensing. Lev Parnas. Igor Fruman. Chanel Rion. Sean Hannity. Steve Bannon. Miranda Devine. Ken Vogel. Ron Johnson. Chuck Grassley. James Comer. Jim Jordan.

To name a few.

An operation formally sanctioned by Trump's own Treasury Department on September 10, 2020, and expanded to include more named actors on January 11, 2021.

Oh, and don't forget the Russian-linked FBI informant Alexander Smirnov, who later pleaded guilty to making the entire Burisma bribery story up.

The record exists and we have all the receipts, and more.

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

Tonight, America watched the ramblings of a mad king.

Donald Trump’s address was not about the last election — it was THIS one.

Before a single vote has been cast, he’s already laying the groundwork to rig this election and convince YOU not to trust the results if they don’t go his way.

This is what authoritarians do. Don’t fall for it.

Organize. Mobilize. SHOW UP and VOTE in November!

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

I spent the last few months talking to people across the political spectrum, and to people who want nothing to do with politics at all. Here is what I learned.

We are not a divided country. We are a country being divided, on purpose, by an American oligarchy that profits from the fight. They’ve captured our government, denied our healthcare, looted our treasury, and saddled us with crippling debt.

I believe in a New New Deal. Healthcare as a human right. The right of every family to a decent home, and an end to endless wars.

And a dividend paid to every American from the AI economy, because these machines were built on the whole of human inheritance. That inheritance belongs to all of us, and not just to the handful of men playing God with our very existence.

And none of it happens if we just move on. Donald Trump, his family, and his administration are robbing us blind, not just of our money, but of our faith in one another, and they have to answer for it. Truth and reconciliation, not revenge. Then we break the system that let them do it.

The question is not whether we will lose our democracy. The question is whether we will fight to take back what has already been stolen.

I learned in recovery that you can’t heal what you won’t name. Neither can a country.

Crime is DOWN across the board in California and we just recorded the LOWEST homicide rate in state history.

[Democratic Wins Media @DemocraticWins]

BREAKING: CNN just aired a devastating montage of all the times that Donald Trump accused others of using their public office to make money. Donald Trump's net worth has almost tripled since he took office. Everything he accuses others of is an open admission.

🚨 BOMBSHELL! Top journalist Ana Kasparian completely exposes Representative Tony Nehls.

While he calls struggling Americans lazy, data reveals he missed a staggering 186 roll call votes.

He literally skips work while enjoying massive vacations.

The hypocrisy is staggering!

[Occupy Democrats @OccupyDemocrats]

BREAKING: Vibrio vulnificus — a deadly, flesh-eating bacteria with a staggering 20% mortality rate — is now being detected in multiple U.S. waterways.

And here’s the part you’re not supposed to ignore: this comes after the Trump administration dismantled critical water monitoring systems and gutted CDC programs that were tracking this very threat.

When you defund science and silence public health experts, Americans pay the price.

I am officially nominating Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) for the Nobel Peace Prize.

No President in History has ended the same war so many times.

Our Dear Leader has ended the war with Iran at least 38 times by CNN’s count.

No President has ever done this before.

And he is nowhere near finished ending it.

It’s a record worthy of the Nobel committee’s recognition. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

Another one of @MirandaDevine’s favorite sources is going to jail.

Miles Guo got 30 years yesterday for a billion-dollar fraud.

He was Steve Bannon’s business partner. Together they built GTV. GTV pushed the doctored photos and smears about me. They built the Laptop from Hell narrative. Devine made it famous. Guo even had a Mar-a-Lago membership.

He joins Alexander Smirnov. Six years for fabricating the Burisma bribery story that drove the impeachment inquiry against my father. Smirnov admitted he made it up.

And Gal Luft. Still a fugitive. Indicted for acting as an unregistered Chinese agent after paying a Trump adviser to push Beijing’s line in public.

All three came after me and my father. All three are liars and frauds. All three served the interests of Donald Trump. And they are just the tip of the iceberg.

Follow me on Substack where I’ll be sharing the whole story soon.

.@elonmusk says that no one can name a person who died from his aid cuts. In fact, I've met the kids who are dying, and I've talked to the families who lost children. In my columns, I've cited many, many names of people who have died because of Musk's aid cuts. A few examples:
*Yamah Freeman was a 23-year-old woman who died in childbirth because Musk cut funding for the diesel for ambulances in her part of Liberia. She couldn't get to a hospital and died as people were carrying her there. I talked to her parents and sister in their village.
*Gbessey Kiadu, age 1, died of malaria because of his cuts to malaria medication in Liberia. I talked to his mom in her village.
*Ibrahim Koroma, an infant, died of AIDS in Sierra Leone after he interrupted HIV supplies. I talked to health workers who cared for him.
*Achol Deng was an 8-year-old girl with HIV in South Sudan who died when Musk cut funding for the health care worker who provided her medicines. I talked to the healthcare workers.
I could go on and on. In almost every village you go to in South Sudan, Uganda, Liberia, Sierra Leone or other countries I reported in, you find people dying because of aid cuts. I challenge Musk: Come with me on a reporting trip, and we'll talk to these moms and dads, and you'll see the dying children themselves. I think if you see the kids whose lives are at stake, maybe you'll change your mind.

🚨BREAKING: In the Chicago suburbs, an ICE agent assaults a teenager for filming his vehicle, and pointing out that it illegally has no license plate.

In the video, a U.S. citizen is peacefully filming an ICE vehicle, that is sitting in a parking lot. He walks to the back of the SUV to document that it has no license plate.

That’s when the ICE agent jumps out, screaming, “Get away from my vehicle!” while aggressively charging toward the teenager.

The teenager immediately backs away, but the ICE agent keeps walking at him, tries to trip the teenager , and continues yelling… even though neither of them are anywhere near the vehicle anymore.

Filming government officials performing their duties, in public, is protected by the First Amendment. That protection doesn’t disappear just because the official doesn’t like being recorded.

An officer also can’t lawfully use physical force simply because someone is filming them. Using force, to stop someone from recording, is a violation of that person’s constitutional rights.

And let’s not ignore the reason the ICE agent got out of his car in the first place...

Illinois law requires vehicles, driven on public roads, to display valid registration plates. This ICE vehicle is not following that law.

So, if your first instinct, when someone records your conduct, is to assault them… you’re proving exactly why the public is recording in the first place.

.@Ossoff: A few years back, this degenerate political staffer named Brandon Phillips had been convicted of multiple crimes for some brutal violence. This kid was such a mess that he had to resign from the Trump campaign. But Congressman Mike Collins thought he'd make a great chief of staff. Mike only fired Brandon after the head of a super PAC threatened to cancel millions of dollars to Mike's campaign. So Brandon's gone and Mike Collins promotes a young man named Kip to be his new chief of staff, but then it's revealed Kip's been briefing Nick Fuentes, the Hitler admirer. And Mike's okay with this. Kip's still on the payroll. Mike Collins is a bigot and an anti-Semite under federal investigation for the illegal misuse of tax dollars who lacks the judgment and integrity to serve in the United States Senate.

Just saying…

48 million Americans have a substance use problem.

8 out of 10 don’t get treatment.

The crisis isn’t addiction. It’s access.
