Western North Carolina's natural beauty is irreplaceable. Data centers strain water resources, raise utility bills, and cause noise pollution. I support a 1-year moratorium on new data centers because these facilities are not good neighbors. #NC11 #WNC #DataCenters

BREAKING: Davey Hearn reflecting pool prosecution dismissed WITH PREJUDICE That means the case cannot be brought again  Huge victory for Davey, for us at @democracydefendersfund.org & our legal team colleagues Washington Litigation Group and Steptoe--& for rule of law More to follow!

Finding Backrooms frightening largely due to all the unanchored furniture.

Don't fall for it. (Credit to @groundworkcollab)

I have a specific request for those of you who follow me on Bluesky: I built Democracy Docket on its own tech stack. That means, signing up takes an extra step. I promise you it’s worth it. If you haven't done, now is the perfect time! If you have, please share this with others. demdock.com/4w6emld

Please don't overreact to Roberts Court decision on the contemplated USPS ballot moves They simply held that the injunction came too early in the process, before there was a final rule👇 Now we HAVE a final rule & we will litigate it. I'm as confident in our arguments here as in any of our cases!

The judge ordered briefing on whether the dismissal should be w/ prejudice, meaning the case could never come back You dismiss w/ prejudice when there's a risk of repeated harassment & bad faith Look at Trump's social media & tell me that risk isn't real More on @ms.now👇 -TN

Even though David Hearn has been exonerated, his legal team says they're still seeking access to full grand jury transcripts, including instructions given to jurors leading to indictment. They think this could reveal that prosecutors misled the grand jury: newrepublic.com/article/2141...

Yet, he voted for the guy. Total coward. "Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-La.) seemed not fully sure about how the new U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanche might approach November’s midterms." www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Abdul is solidly to my left, but there is not a single policy in his agenda that is “socialist,” much less “communist.” I get buzz words are fun, but these are actual ideologies that actually mean things. Abdul is objectively neither.

So the solution is to give them more power????

The bipartisan House Ethics Committee on Monday recommended that Rep. Chuck Edwards (R-NC) be censured for his behavior towards two young women on his staff.

Something about that seat man – Edwards' predecessor was the scandal-ridden Madison Cawthorn. Texts that will make you physically uncomfortable, personalized Adam Sandler puzzles, "approximately 30" types of ice cream ahead (if you dare): talkingpointsmemo.com/news/house-e...

You know Liberty University is a valid academic institution because they sponsor a racecar.

If Trump didn’t attack Iran, they’d have had a nuke 5 years ago. Amazing job Mr President

LET’S GO, CANES!!!

I mean, Trump is infamous for bankrupting cansinos after all www.politico.com/news/2026/05...

Why did you side with the GOP's anti-trans crusade? www.huffpost.com/entry/8-demo...

Pubs *still* trying to pretend to be the pro-police party while also trying to make the Jan 6 cop beaters millionaires

Boom. Vulnerable House GOPer says he's going to try to kill Trump's slush fund via a legislative option. This confirms what I argue below, that this is an impossible thing for vulnerable Rs to defend.

Senator Barasso’s (R) office just told me they are there to hear “actual” constituent concerns just before hanging up on me when I just called and asked where he stands on the $1,776,000,000 fund to payout 1/6 cop beaters Fucking shameful

very funny that this guy is literally like “tax the rich? that is the n word to me, personally” www.nytimes.com/2026/05/05/n...

Crazy that a sitting Senator would come out and just admit they are guilty of multiple felonies like this

We did! We passed a bill to fund the Secret Service and TSA and FEMA 100-0. If Speaker Johnson would just call it for a vote, it would pass. That’s the problem.

JD Vance in 2020: “My growing view is that too many American Catholics have failed to show proper deference to the papacy, treating the pope as a political figure to be criticized or praised according to their whims.” www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

The Trump admin admonishing others to be careful when talking is something

This has been a very hard week, I imagine, for the survivors of Swalwell's rape and abuse. Understatement. They are heroes for coming forward given how the power structure discourages it. Yes, even among Democrats. Who knows how many more ppl would have been harmed if he had become governor. 1/

Vance has never “opposed” the war an Iran! He has publicly supported it from the beginning and every step along the way. The idea that he privately opposed it and that should be considered his official position is absolute garbage.

Donald Trump is deranged. He must be impeached and removed from office. Republicans who don’t stop him will have blood on their hands, and anyone who carries out an order to bomb civilian targets will be complicit in war crimes and will be held accountable.

Wonder where he stands on this today?

this really is the crux of it all, you know? yeah. jefferson didn't. but i do. and i'm alive. and i can act.

one thing the trump era has made clear, i think, is that the american people themselves are far more committed to the values of our founding documents than our elites

The gall of this cretinous plonker to invoke the safety of children.

Abolish ICE. There’s no reforming it. There’s no compromise. There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.

I guess Bill Cassidy’s strategy of occasionally tweeting mild and generic criticisms isn’t curbing the administration’s deadly policies. Shocking www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

BREAKING: The two federal immigration agents who fired on Minneapolis protester Alex Pretti are identified in government records as Border Patrol agent Jesus Ochoa and Customs and Border Protection officer Raymundo Gutierrez.

Just asked Tim Scott’s office if he supports and believes in the Constitution. Yes they said. Then asked if he thinks peaceful protesters should be gunned down in the streets by federal agents. They said they could not answer that.

A retired Minneapolis couple who had guns pointed at them by ICE in a church parking lot. "They were obviously not trained at all. I've known many police officers in my life. These people were right off the streets." "They had the professional demeanor of criminals." ht: @paulgraham.bsky.social

lol Chuck Edwards’ office says he of course supports the second amendment but has no comment on the president and multiple high ranking goons of his saying it’s effectively moot

Was just on the phone with Marriott/ Bonvoy about a guest exposing himself to the world from their top floor hallway window at the Maple Grove Minnesota Springhill Suites. The woman tried to put me to a higher level but they apparently said they didn’t want to take the call +1 (800) 627-7468

Yeah fuck this bullshit

State terror has arrived..gifted article… www.nytimes.com/2026/01/24/o...

Fucking hell. Trump et al out here calling everyone terrorists but the NRA singles out Tim Walz as being responsible for the federal jack booted thugs murdering people on American streets because of his words
