Not an Extremist

Your daily reminder that those opposed for diversity, equity, and inclusion are in favor of sameness, inequity, and exclusion.

I do think Acton should go as hard as possible on this. "Elon Musk is paying millions of dollars to bombard your TV with lies by a rapist pedophile and his insane enabler wife. Don't let him win."

Two thoughts: This false, despicable ad is proof that Vivek Ramaswamy knows he is about to lose to Amy Acton. No mother who loves her daughter would do this. Her complicity reveals her.

Hope this provokes the biggest example of the Streisand Effect in the entire history of Streisand Effects. To Hell with both Musk and TikTok.

X is owned by Musk. TikTok is blocking the Musk movie account. Meta blocked the No Kings account. This is why Democracy Docket is not built on SubStack or any third-party platform that could one day turn against it. It costs more to operate but is worth it. Subscribe now. demdock.com/4w6emld

What a dishonest false equivalence. Actual censorship vs. coverage you don't like.

There is a suspected outbreak of the plague in Russia. Yes, you read that right. And we cannot trust RFK Jr. and the Trump administration to be prepared to deal with this. We need a Democratic public health doctor in the US Senate.

This is the mpls star tribune. It really would be nice if the NYTimes etc write clear, truthful headlines like this

Leaked audio of Ken Paxton: Q: Do you think Trump is a bit of a drag? Paxton: To be honest with you, when we did that midterm convention, it dropped our numbers. Everybody’s numbers dropped. Yeah. Not good.

Streisand Effect, Activate.

There’s lots of empty land in and near Mar-a-Lago and Bedminster, and for that matter at the very spacious estates of the tech oligarchs and the nice campuses of the tech companies. Those seem like easy places to put data centers.

Target paid its CEO $21.8M last year — 794x the median Target worker's pay of $27,506. Target has also spent $13.9B on stock buybacks since 2019, while remaining among the largest employers of Medicaid and SNAP recipients in America. This is what I mean by a rigged economy.

Make no mistake—this is Mike Rogers' position on data centers. He's got up to $2.6 million invested in companies cashing in on the data center boom, all while Michiganders watch their utility bills soar.

On this I cannot disagree. Mainstream media and legacy media have been bought and paid for and are willing turning a blind eye to an obvious coverup. No one is willing to go to the hospital and find out the truth? Shameful.

The national debt just surpassed $40,000,000,000,000. Meanwhile, Trump is focused on building a lavish ballroom featuring Italian carved columns.

The stupidity of the Trump and his military commanders is world class. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/14/u...

This is alarming: ICE will spend $20M on electric shock gloves for its agents. This comes as ICE whistleblowers continue warn of new recruits' lack of training and violent backgrounds. Meanwhile the social safety net is gutted — just to funnel billions to Trump's masked thugs.

No matter where we are on the political spectrum, we should all be able to agree: Our privacy should never be traded for profit.

CBS reports that Ashley Moody did precisely what the entire GOP has accused Tim Walz of doing -- and yet, somehow, that crack fraud task force has not arrested the GOP nominee for Senate. www.cbsnews.com/miami/news/f...

A multimillionaire Republican senator told Americans to endure soaring energy costs for “a few more months.” Now a conservative budget expert is calling the message political malpractice. #JohnKennedy #GOP #IranWar

Huge corporations like Amazon, Walmart, and Uber are among the top employers of SNAP and Medicaid recipients. Meanwhile, their CEOs are raking in multi-million dollar pay packages. How is this not a bigger scandal?

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court DISMISSES Department of Justice lawsuit seeking to compel Kentucky to provide the DOJ with access to its complete statewide voter registration database. DOJ is now 0-17 in these case. Elias Law Group remains undefeated. www.democracydocket.com/cases/kentuc...

Mamdani continues to show how right-wing and even centrist narratives about NYC + him as a Democratic Socialist Mayor are total bullshit. I suspect this will get virtually zero coverage by the billionaire boot-licking outlets. www.nyc.gov/mayors-offic...

That’s the mantra that the Dem. Party should be adopting instead of wringing their hands and running to failing consultants. Listen to Heather Cox Richardson’s June 25th podcast where she reads the 1956 Rep. Party’s platform that could have been written by Mamdani. #news #following #EconSky

Anytime any respectable journalist mentions our two chief negotiators with Iran, Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff, they should note both receive sizeable paychecks from Middle Eastern nations with deep equities in these talks. It is a fundamental corruption.

MELONI, to Trump: “.. my popularity is none of your concern. I suggest you focus on yours.”

Axios: "If Paramount Skydance's deal with Warner Bros. Discovery goes through, Bari Weiss would oversee all news editorial across both CBS News and CNN."

SCOOP: An internal Microsoft strategy document says that the plan for its just-announced “Scout” personal assistant AI is to “make people addicted” to the tool before rolling out additional functionality, 404 Media has learned.

Canada turning red is the geopolitical version of your golden retriever finally biting you.

Reminder: Jon Husted has taken $552,225 from corporate PACs, accepted $116,892 from Epstein co-conspirator Leslie Wexner, and is embroiled in a $60 million bribery scheme. #MostCorrupt2026

Not enough people know this. It's why our country is in such a mess. #politics #Republicans www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...

Calling the Voting Rights Act “far-left partisan Democratic legislation” is what happens when historical ignorance meets bad faith. Reagan reauthorized it in 1982, Bush signed an extension in 1992, and George W. Bush signed its reauthorization in 2006.

Sherrod Brown has won the Ohio Democratic Senate primary. He will run against Trump-endorsed Republican Senator Jon Husted, who supports cutting Medicaid and has taken over $115,000 in donations from Jeffrey Epstein associates.

Ex-OpenAI board member Helen Toner says AI companies are "deadly serious" about building machines that outperform humans at everything and they don’t know if they’ll be able to control them.   So why hasn’t Congress taken meaningful action to regulate AI?

🚨 WOW! BIG news here! Jerome Powell says he will remain on the Fed board after stepping down as chair—a move not seen since 1948. He specifically pointed to legal pressure from Donald Trump and the need to ensure Fed independence. Trump’s attacks have backfired in a big way.

Today Trump had his FCC seek to strip ABC's license if they don't fire Jimmy Kimmel over his joke mocking Trump and had his DOJ indict James Comey over a picture of seashells he posted in May 2025 mocking Trump. The GOP is 100% on board with this. Our freedoms are on the ballot this November!

This is from right wing "journalist" Jack Posobiec who has access to the White House. He clearly called for murdering President Biden in 2021. Why wasn't he charged by Trump's DOJ for doing exactly what James Comey did?
