I prefer my news not to be sanewashed. Imagine all the people reading Marc’s headline(s). Do you think they would start waking up from this nightmare, partially created by media that literally paid the government to keep trump off their back? Please subscribe if you can. The truth is out there.
Appeasing the gangster, it is.
Do better @washingtonpost.com. You know what this is. Don't frame this as some kind of honest strategy.
I remember when WaPo’s slogan was Democracy Dies in Darkness. Their slogan now is WE ARE THE DARKNESS.

Democracy Docket
Okay. Dilute the seats and let them be more purple. You may be surprised, Missouri.
I hope every democracy loving Missourian has plans to protest on the steps of the Capitol in Jeff City. A huge event is planned for 9/10. At least 2 buses are chartered from STL and I know more fromKC. Not sure if they are voting before or after but might be worth going on 9/3 as well for the start.
WaPo is owned by Bezos now right?
YUP
That's what we call a rhetorical question!
He basically said that citizens of Missouri are too stupid to vote their own values.
imagine that
He's been telling his supporters that for years...they're just too mentally ill to comprehend
Definitely not the fucking WaPo.
Funny how having billionaire owners softens a paper's tone to mush.
There's a lot of us that are one bad day from murdering these fascist shit-stains. Matter of time. They'll get what's theirs.

And that is why I quit Amazon.
I would like to see a news station that challenges FOX. It could be done. Put the truth out there, do investigative reporting and debunk the conspiracies 24/7. People are angry. Give them an alternative. Invest in Democracy Docket so they can build a bigger platform and reach more people.
Honestly, what’s been getting me through the dark days that began January 20, 2025: Bluesky, Marc Elias, Heather Cox Richardson, the handful of politicians taking real action against authoritarianism. @marcelias.bsky.social @heathercoxrichardson.substack.com.web.brid.gy Thank you!
Who do I trust? Let's just say, when I canceled my @washingtonpost.com subscription, I immediately redirected those dollars to a recurring monthly donation to @democracydocket.com. Every day is a good day to cancel your #WaPo subscription.
As legacy media ditches the best, it inhances the independents. Go ahead legacy, put another nail in your coffin. You are spiraling the drain!
This is the descent into civil war. When voting power is taken away from the people and everything is rigged we are no longer represented we are subjugated.
Marc Elias is right about everything.
YES!!!
If you're doing conservative, Republican hubristic rhetoric I think one is meant to say that about oneself, so Marc Elias might say "Marc Elias is right about everything." But if you're just saying, in general, then that's fine. Yes. Pretty much seems to be the case.
That needs to be on a hat!
Who?

Love you Marc. Signing up for premium member!
😘
Yes, he is, and we can not thank him enough!
Yes he is, and he has an awesome avatar too.
Followed Mark D. LaDue for that.
WAPO is now a MAGA shill Democracy is dying in broad daylight
I had a WaPo subscription for over 25 years. Canceled it as soon as Bezos sold out independent journalism.
Jeff Bezos’ Washington Post can’t be trusted anymore. Jeff Bezos is part of the tech bros, like Elon Musk (very quiet lately) and Peter Thiel. They want JD Vance to be the next president of the U.S. and replace our democracy with a dictatorship.
A stark difference. WaPo has fallen so low so fast. I don't miss my WaPo subscription at all and am happy to support Democracy Docket.
Same Bezos ruined truth in reporting
All the dollar gen billionaire Bond villians are in on this regime.👹👹👹
I'm not a fan of gerrymandering, but we have to save our country.
We're the only ones who can.
"When they go high, we go low" isn't working. Our infighting, apathy, and playing by the book got Trump reelected.
It is time to exercise your strength to survive the trump regime. When YOUR country is being accurately compared to Nazism, oppression, racism and gestapo leadership, you MUST determine what your legacy to your children will be. GET TF UP
Democracy Docket! Thank you @marcelias.bsky.social
Wa Po Represents Only Billionaires, And Anyone That Is Not Making A Billion Dollars Should Stop Wasting Their Money On A Tabloid That Is Only There To Kiss Butt With Billionaires.
Cancelled Post (and NYT) over a year ago. DD for me.
Based solely on those headlines, the WaPo. I know that won’t be popular but I prefer to not have the headlines start with a partisan conclusion even if it’s my team. Report the facts and I’ll form my own conclusions. DD’s headline makes me think everything there is slanted.
We passed Nonpartisan Citizen Committee to draw our districts. We limited the legislatures acceptance of lobbyists money too. Enshrined it in the constitution and they ignored it. Just like they are now with earned sick leave.
To the WaPo it's just all part of the horse race of politics. It's just a game! They have abandoned the entire concept of right/wrong, constitutional/unconstitutional or legal/illegal.
embarrassed for my state. Missouri
You, obviously!
Bezos Post
GOP offers Americans the chance to meet Jesus ! .......versus...... GOP threatens to kill all Americans ! Which style of "Journalism" do you prefer ?
The Washington Post has become a joke of zero utility.
Democracy Docket. Hands down.
I already subscribe to democracy docket. Never miss an article by Marc Elias.
I follow DD and also get my US news from abroad.
That's easy. YOU !!!!!
Trump and his lackeys dangerous & corrupt MO: declare baseless "emergencies" When Trump policies backfire they claim sabotage by the deep state, "judicial coup" or that statistics are wrong. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pGFr... www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTmr... newrepublic.com/post/199856/...
Not @cnn.com
“The effort to create a new GOP-leaning state” Is garbled and untrue - the state has leaned GOP for a quarter of a century. Fun fact: it really does matter where you live now.
Missouri is trying to strip powers from the voters. Thanks Democracy Docket for telling the truth
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Who's ever covering it, it's still unconstitutional in Missouri for them to do this according to the state's Constitution. So they're going to have to figure out how to make it legal.
Independent media ALWAYS and thank you!!
I trust YOU!
At this point if the Bezos Post said the sky was blue, I'd still look out the window to check.
Hmmm....blue states are doing it with voter approval. Red states are doing it behind closed doors and ramming it down our throats.
Correct Very important point!
Can't read the WP, won't read the WP. Big part of why we are where we are.
Why subscribe to sugar coated news?
TRUMP DEPENDING ON DEMs: To prevent the 2028 election Trump calls for 100 new House seats by redrawing GOP maps, ending mail-in voting giving a 6 to 7 seat advantage. DEMs Response: Well, "I" prefer to keep fair and independently drawn maps intact and hope for court intervention. #MAKENOISE
