There are several important cases before the Supreme Court about redistricting. The Texas case -- which is awaiting a decision -- will tell us whether Donald Trump's gambit to have Texas illegally gerrymander will succeed or fail. I am proud that my law firm is in this fight!

The BBC joins a long list of media companies now obeying in advance. I can't say I'm surprised or at this point even angry. It is a structural flaw in legacy media
All I can do is promise that Democracy Docket will never bow down or bend a knee. It will remain unapologetically pro-democracy.

NEWS --> BBC confirms to me that they did edit a line out of historian @rutgerbregman.com's speech. It called Trump "the most openly corrupt president in US history."
BBC also confirms this was done on the advice of lawyers. So Trump's threats worked.

Trump’s Fury at BBC Gets Unnerving Results with Pro-MAGA Edit Stunner
First, British Broadcasting Corporation execs resigned after Trump complained about a segment. Now the BBC edited out a line from a historian that was critical of Trump. Where does this end?

We have seen the Trump playbook before. In 2020 it was to pressure election officials to overturn the result of a free and fair election. Now it is to intimidate state legislatures to illegal redistrict. We defeated him the and we will do so again.

Benny staged a photo of what he said were 11 "rioters" who were arrested. Bovino tackled one of them for...nothing.
Only they weren't arrested. They were held all day, asked some Qs, then dropped off at a gas (petrol) station nearby.
These people don't show up on list of people arrested that day.

![On October 3, 2025, Secretary Noem spoke to agents at the Broadview facility before
they began their shift. She said:
When we leave here, we’re going to go hard. We’re going to
hammer these guys who are advocating for violence against the
American people. What they are doing is advocating to harm not
just you and your colleagues but your families and they’re doxing
your identities and victimizing people every day by the way that
they’re talking, speaking, who they’re affiliated with, who they’re
funded with, and what they’re talking about as far as consequences
for what we’re doing by protecting this country. So we’re going to
go out there and we’re going to make sure that there’s
consequences for the way that they’re behaving, and then we’re
going to prosecute them. We’re going to bring them to justice.
We’re not taking this anymore. . . . We’re going to give you guys
all the authority that you need to arrest these individuals who are
advocating for violence against you.

You’re going to be put in full effect . . . That crowd there is, is an
unsafe crowd on either side. . . . And when they resist, what
happens? They get arrested. So it’s now going to be a free arrest
zone. And, I’ll give them one warning that that’ll be for safety of,
of us and the Secretary to leave. So they’re getting it here as soon
as we leave.
Id. Secretary Noem finished by stating, “[m]ake sure that these individuals are not allowed to
conduct this kind of activity anymore.” Id.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:bbp2b224lro3bfnzcqwwnkfo/bafkreig2d3dv5uenevfeysdwtzufmkdzaesuprpyomamh3fmnnaq3xq3se@jpeg)
