I’m starting to think some of these folks aren’t voting on economic anxiety or the price of eggs.

Where are their fathers? Why aren’t they involved with their churches?

Why is everyone criticizing Janet Mills’ age (she’s 77) but nobody seems to blink at Bernie running for reelection at 86?

White “fauxgressives” on this app are still trying to make Harris responsible for 80 years of US foreign policy and tomorrow . . . the SC will make it just that much harder for Black folks to vote . . .

Tomorrow the Supreme Court will hear arguments in the most important redistricting and voting rights case of the term. Democracy Docket isn't just covering it for the day. It has been covering this case for years.

Black people end up dead in these scenarios.

If men with guns and masks tried to pull me out of my car, I'd fight back. Courts should reject any claims by the government that this is aggression by the person being detained, resisting arrest, or that they're a flight risk.

Black men/women have been murdered for decades for doing that.

Your flippancy about it while sitting in so much privilege is truly offensive.

White voters could end this anytime and yet here we are- in danger because of whites but you keep being brave.

Your white audience loves it

“The dynamic of easy racism and casual cruelty played out in often dark, vivid fashion inside the chats, where campaign talk and party gossip blurred into streams of slurs and violent fantasies.”

Heartbreaking: Neo-soul legends Angie Stone and D’Angelo both passed away in 2025, just 7 months apart. Stone died in March at 63. D’Angelo died today at 51. They shared a son together. An entire generation’s soundtrack, gone. Rest in power to both 🕊️💔

If all you have is "but Janet Mills in in her 70s!" (but elect Bernie when he's 89) you will need more than that to explain why you prefer a 0-experience ex-Blackwater mercenary over a woman who has twice proved she can win both the Left and moderates in Maine to defeat Collins.
