I love nature and art. Dark-eyed juncos and McKay's buntings. Native plants, mushing, reading, writing, watercolor, glitter, and art messes. Justice.

Mamdani Chooses His Words Carefully After Alleged Terror Attack

One day the NYT's editors will read these stories again and be ashamed of themselves. Mamdani called the attack "heinous," "criminal," "reprehensible," "terrorism," and "the antithesis of who we are." The insinuation that he's conflicted about this is disgraceful. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/09/n...

Long-time buddies Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols were out for a pleasant van drive in Oklahoma when, all of a sudden, their lives would change.

There are seven American dead from Iranian drones. We told Ukraine β€œno” when they offered us their drone defense in August that we’re now begging for.

Unacceptable

So when are Republican lawmakers going to admit this president is endangering not just the U.S. but the entire globe and stop him before he does even more damage?

Markwayne Mullin is the same dude already under scrutiny for suspicious stock trades.

And he’s supposed to run America’s national security.

β€’ No government security experience
β€’ No law enforcement background
β€’ No intelligence work
β€’ No military service
β€’ Not even a bachelor’s degree

Rand Paul: "As far as reasons for the war, there have been many different ones floated, but none have been very convincing... we were told their nuclear weapons were obliterated, and now we're told their nuclear weapons are just moments away from being a bomb. I don't think the arguments are valid."

This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

We must get big money out of politics. It’s the root of all evil in Washington.

Leaders of both parties should be calling for Witkoff's immediate resignation after these remarks. He is a Russian patsy, a traitor, and this has just gone for too long. It is has to end.

Trump has now conducted 42 boat strikes, killing nearly 160 people.

Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it.

He’s unilaterally acting as judge, jury, and executioner.

This is a danger to us all.

It was a lie, not an opinion. A blatant and obvious lie. Something he knew was a lie. And not just another one of the hundreds of lies he tells every day - a lie about the killing of at least 175 people, mostly girls who were attending school. bsky.app/profile/acyn...

BREAKING: As many as 150 U.S. troops have been wounded in the war with Iran, according to sources familiarβ€”far higher than the Pentagon’s publicly disclosed figure of just 8 seriously wounded troops. The true toll of this war is already far worse than the public has been told. (Reuters)

Murphy: "Literally in my other ear I'm listening to Ted Cruz on another network explain why this mission is so essential to destroy the nuclear program. I may have to walk over there and tell him the admin is now briefing that getting rid of the nuclear program has nothing to do with this mission."

Iran may be activating sleeper cells outside the country, alert says The U.S. has intercepted encrypted communications believed to have originated in Iran that may serve as β€œan operational trigger” for β€œsleeper assets."

β€œThe U.S. has intercepted encrypted communications believed to have originated in Iran that may serve as "an operational trigger" for "sleeper assets" according to alert sent to law enforcement agencies.”

I was called an alarmist when I mentioned sleeper cells. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Trump says US Navy sank Iran's warship off the coast of Sri Lanka because "it's more fun" to sink ships than capture them.

"You have to believe that was accidental, despite the fact it was hit twice, 40 minutes apart. It looks very much like a double-tap.”

Tucker not buying Trump’s lie about the girls’ school bombing.

That sound you are *not* hearing is Donald Trump rebuking his pal Vladimir Putin for providing Iran with specific locations of American troops to kill them.

Instead, Donald is *easing* sanctions on Russia.

He is despicable.

Trump told us who he was in 2012. Will we finally believe him today? Trump has always been an election denier. He has always vilified voting. He has always started with lies, escalated to the courts, and ultimately embraced violent rhetoric.

One of the most important things I have written in a while. I hope you read, learn and share. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...

Let’s get one thing straight: We are not a Christian nation. We are a nation where you are free to be a Christian.

Your religion guides you, not all of us. It’s as simple as that.

Totally normal that the #2 person at the DOJ civil rights division is asking me about a trial court denying our motion to intervene in a case DOJ is going to lose on the merits.

He clearly does not want you to stay informed by subscribing to Democracy Docket. Here is the link: bit.ly/4qmEiFz
