NEW: In a win for voters, a federal court dismissed a right-wing group's challenge to Pennsylvania's voter roll maintenance practices, which sought to disenfranchise over 277,000 voter registrations. The case was dismissed and cannot be refiled. www.democracydocket.com/cases/pennsy...

I spent so many years covering propaganda anticipating this exact moment and so many of my peers bought the paid-for contrarian line that even covering disinformation was somehow, itself, censorship. Now we're at the event horizon. Celebration is protest is riot is justification for a police state.
This took a while to get done, but I've chronicled my day among the protesters in Los Angeles, and the idea that this is anything but a celebration of cultural heritage and a firm, nonviolent demand to protect family, friends and neighbors is totally ridiculous. prospect.org/justice/crie...

Trump's has promised 10 "Freedom Cities" on federal land. But the Network State isn't about "freedom"—it's about escape. Billionaire bunker systems to opt out of democracy and public accountability. www.techpolicy.press/trumps-gaza-...

NEW: Trump’s DOJ is “court-baiting”: forcing the judiciary to make potentially unpopular decisions that are necessary to protect constitutional principles — then attacking them for those decisions. Experts say it’s straight from the authoritarian playbook. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

FYI: Someone made a viral TikTok video about Freedom Cities. It starts: "I'm not a journalist, don't quote me on this, this is just a rumor..." Then it makes some very strange, improbable claims — mixed in with real facts — on the topic. That's called misinformation, and it's harmful.
Trump’s “Freedom Cities” are part of a tech billionaire-backed plan to replace democracy with corporate rule. It’s called The Network State, and it’s already underway. Got 5 minutes? Here's what you need to know www.youtube.com/watch?v=CCj_...
