If you are a good journalist and you value people who show you respect and integrity, you should grant your audience the same:

You call a lie a lie

You call a criminal a criminal

You call treason treason

And

You call fascists fascists.

THERE ARE NO 'BOTH SIDES' ABOUT THIS.

Not everyone is comfortable attending a protest and that’s okay.

There are lots of ways to be involved:

🔹Donate
🔹Postcards to voters
🔹Volunteer
🔹Speak the facts

Just be safe.

Pritzker: "You just heard a tidal wave of lies from the VP. It's a bit shocking. And you heard over & over him just making things up. There's a reason why the judge here in federal court said that they admin lacks credibility and why even the Nobel committee chair said the admin lacks integrity."

Heute gibt es einige Presseberichte zum neuen Global Tipping Points Report. Dazu hole ich hier nochmal ein dreiteiliges Video zu komplexen System vor. Es ist schwer, zu sowas Bezug zu finden. Aber man muss das auch gar nicht voll verstehen. Es reicht einzusehen, dass wir alles riskieren. Echt alles.

Sebastian Seiffert @sci-ffert.bsky.social · Jun 10

Ein Kernelement komplexer Systeme ist Kopplung. Spätestens da wird es ganz schwer zu begreifen. Und gleichsam unfassbar riskant. Denn gekoppelte Instabilität von Systemen, die unser Leben & Zusammenleben erst ermöglichen, führt zum ultimativen Kipppunkt: den, wo wir nicht mehr hinterherkommen.

The problem we face is they push violence, aggression at every step. We outnumber them 4:1, but all media/gov/tech/oligarchs are on their side. Any retaliation would be over hyped, creating full martial law. So we have our 5th, largest protest by far, on Sat. To show peacefully our scale & ability🇺🇸

JORDAN: Comey is where weaponization all started. 9 years ago he took the dossier--

BASH: But that's not what he's being prosecuted for

JORDAN: I'm just saying, you want to talk about weaponization, that's where it started

BASH: So this is retribution then

It looks like Trump is manipulating the Stock market again and I’m hearing that his billionaire friends including himself and Republicans made millions while other people lost everything they had including those with Crypto! This is something that he’s intentionally doing! 🤬

Kelly: I really worry about those aviators, drone operators, special forces guys that are in the Caribbean right now striking these boats and whether or not this is legal..

There’s no authorization for the use of military force. The Congress has not given that to the president. He hasn’t asked.

The most dangerous form of government is theocracy.

Because the only thing worse than a tyrant is a tyrant who thinks they're on a mission from God.

Never forget that when Bondi was appointed, Democracy Docket immediately called her out while The Washington Post gave her a thumbs up.

If you value independent, pro-democracy media that won't bow down or obey, support Democracy Docket today. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0
