@sanders.senate.gov on the opportunity cost of war: "All over this country, people are sleeping out on the street, can't afford housing, can't afford healthcare. We are the richest country in the history of the world... We need to provide a decent standard of living for every man, woman and child."

Six years in, the future of democracy is still on the docket None of these attacks on our elections were getting the attention they deserved. In October 2019, I decided to do something about it.

As large as Democracy Docket has grown, it still needs to scale larger and faster. The decline of legacy media and the rise of right-wing media have made our mission more critical than ever. In this arena, size and influence matter enormously. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/six-...

Trump’s Pay-to-Pardon Scheme
Trump’s Pay-to-Pardon Scheme Corporate executives who defraud nursing homes? Pardoned.Reality TV stars who evade millions in taxes? Pardoned.Thousand

Last year, lobbying firms raked in over $5 million from clients hoping to secure a pardon from Trump.

Turns out his pay-to-pardon scheme is quite lucrative. Watch. https://youtu.be/NflcWXdV-B0?si=0fAnSic2HAFVRmfN

Markwayne Mullin’s views on the value of life stop at the birth canal.

β€œIn Oklahoma, we’re not going to be killing babies.”

Oklahoma ranks near the bottom in maternal care, infant mortality, healthcare, and education. For Markwayne, once the baby is born, they’re on their own.

Venezuela, Iran, Cuba, Greenland, Canada, and on and on and on. Lindsey Graham says they are β€œmarching through the world.”
They don’t care how many US soldiers they get killed. Meanwhile, they’re building concentration camps at home for Americans to die in. What will it take for people to wake up?

Glad this was vetoed. We agree this bill injected politics into a function of government that should remain nonpartisan. Governor Katie Hobbs vetoed SB1439, which would have created a special β€œTurning Point” license plate and directed $17 of the $25 fee to Turning Point USA.

Have you seen the commercial that brought down Kristi Noem?

Make no mistake: the AI boom, and data center construction it requires, is nothing more than a massive giveaway to Big Tech oligarchs at the expense of our environment and our states’ public resources.

Our leaders should put communities before Big Tech's bottom lines.

It turns out the U.S. did a β€œdouble tap” attack just as emergency responders were arriving at the girls’ elementary school. This is what the Russians do routinely in Ukraine.

That’s a war crime under international humanitarian law.

Trump is clearly rattled by American voters. He has repeatedly attempted to cast doubt on election integrity, even as the only notable evidence of voting fraud that emerged tied back to Elon Musk’s own operations.

Common sense: Elected officials shouldn’t be able to use insider information to line their pockets on prediction markets.

Let’s get my bill passed and BAN this corruption!

Trump’s Ballroom Corruption Exposed Is this the most corrupt thing a president has ever done?

Over 97% of public comments submitted to the commission reviewing Trump's ballroom oppose his White House vanity project.

So who is this monstrosity even for?

Rep. Lieu calls for a new investigation into Epstein’s death after released documents show a prison guard responsible for checking on him deposited $5000 into her account 10 days before his death and googled him right before he was found.
