As Americans we all swore to “never forget” 9/11/2001…but apparently Nebraskans and other MAGAs only remember the Islamophobia and general racism. I’m not surprised, but I’m even more disappointed in them.

I don't take tips on virtue from a man who used a pic of his stillborn child for a GoFundMe campaign for his children's burial garden named "Lincoln’s Place" when the project was never built, and Ogles repeatedly refused to disclose what happened to the tens of thousands of dollars donated.

James Talarico: Ken Paxton has been dodging debates all year, and it's why today I'm challenging Ken Paxton to a debate on Fox News. He's been running from accountability his whole life, and it's time to stop running.

6 weeks from the election & suddenly Republicans pretend to care more about their constituents than cultish obedience to Trump. But 5 minutes after the election they’ll be right back selling you out so they can get a signed hat in the Oval Office or a dinner invite to Mar-a-Lago.

JIM JORDAN: Blanche said it's dead. I don't know what else it takes. HUNT: Well, you're a lawyer! Don't you ever tell clients to get it in writing? Isn't that legal 101? JORDAN: I'm not a lawyer either

WHOA!! Rep. Zach Nunn (R-IA) just STRUCK a person asking him a simple question about rural hospital closures. Reporter: Do you still think rural hospital closures are a myth? Nunn: I said I'm with a constituent. You should protect their privacy! *SMACK*

This is unbelievable. A new lawsuit states that the Trump administration shared the names and immigration records of Iranian asylum seekers with the Iranian government, allowing Iranian officials to identify people they wanted returned.

Donald Trump is lying again about elections. You might recall this once lead to a violent insurrection in the Capitol where police officers were attacked and injured. I realize the legacy media wants us to say this nicely, but they can go fuck off. Support Democracy Docket instead. bit.ly/4qr0jTS

When I chose this silly name I thought it would make people laugh, I never expected it to confuse a vast subset of slack-jawed MAGA Republicans. I am NOT the actor Liam Neeson. Jesus you people are dumber than fucking landscaping rocks.

Sometimes I forget how many people I hate, but they always seem to remind me.

Trump and Hegseth know exactly what happened with the bombing of the girls school. This “investigation” is a smoke screen because they know the attention span of our media cycles, so they will drag it out until they stop getting asked about it. Which is usually 48 hours or so.

Today was an important day for the opposition movement. The law firms that stood up against Donald Trump threats won. Those that capitulated and collaborated with Trump will need to explain to their families, clients and future generations why when democracy was at stake they were such cowards.

The President boasts of "no tax on tips", but this expires in 2028. He boasts of "no tax on overtime," but it is taxed, and the break expires in 2028. He boasts of "no tax on social security," but it is taxed, and his break expires in 2028. He also passed tax cuts for the rich. They're permanent.

Anyone currently involved in federal immigration enforcement, every officer, every bureaucrat, every lawyer, every judge, is a member of the most evil group of people this country has seen since Reconstruction. Darkness personified, every one. Doing this to children is beyond depraved.

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast. The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me. But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

Pam Bondi couldn’t even come prepared for her own staged temper tantrum. this is the nation’s “top law enforcement” official btw 🤡 maybe she became a lawyer because the acting career didn’t work out!!

What a perfect downfall for the “would-be” first trillionaire.

Is Elon a pedo? We couldn't say. Did Elon repeatedly try to invite himself to Epstein's pedo island 5 years after Epstein served time and registered as a sex offender? Yep, he sure did. Do people who aren't pedos beg to party on pedo island? 🤔 #TeslaTakedown
