It is wild that the Washington Post -- which claims "Democracy Dies in Darkness" -- has remained completely silent for more than a day about Trump's latest attack on free and fair elections. Support pro-democracy independent media. Subscribe to Democracy Docket today. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0
The Washington Post has been dead to me for a long time now.
Trust me, I think this guy is screwball too but I’m not sure what the angst is about voter ID…we must show 2pieces to vote in Canada, or your voter registration card and one piece of ID.
The goals of Bezos are found in his political rag's silence.
May I point out my mail-in ballot is...wait for it...PAPER!
Trump can go back to sucking Putin's dick ( not that he has not stopped)..elections run by state, not feds..go EF yourself you walking talking Bloated Haggis..
The Washington Post in cahoots with these traitors.
That's obviously not his body‼️
ozempic
One thing though, I will say, he's not wrong about paper ballots only.
He thinks paper ballots aren't a part of mail-in voting.
Yeah, after all who puts anything made of paper in the mail? 🤔
the WaPo died the day Bezos bought it. My family worked for the post for 100years, so it’s extra sad to see
Capitalizing every word... The interns are trying really hard to mimic Trump and are failing no matter what they do. This wasn't sent out by him.
Funny how he won without any of these restrictions, but now, the coward is running scared because he knows his administration's performance has been poor, and his agenda is failing
“Democracy Dies in Darkness” is the new WaPo objective. It is no longer a warning.
Maybe we could call it their ethos
Good stuff from the man who knows a thing or two about nightmares. bsky.app/profile/step...
States rights. No dictators.
Trump only believes in States rights when the State agrees with him.
Fuck WP. Cancelled my subscription long ago.
How much money does Amazon make shipping out MAGA merchandise and trump junk?
They’ve sold their integrity for access, like so many others. Let’s all remember that when the fever breaks.
The paper ballots make it easier to write "FUCK TRUMP" really big with a black marker.
WaPo is helping democracy die.
Because Bezos has sold his soul to the devil. The WP is a shell of what it once was and aspired to be. It’s
Is it really surprising Marc, because @washingtonpost.com REFUSED to endorse the ONLY pro-democracy candidate (the day this long-time subscriber cancel my subscription) AND has sucked up to a fascist ever since. When they show you WHO THEY ARE, believe them. #DemocracyMurderedInBroadDaylight
Doesn't help that Jeff Bezos bought the newspaper company.
The @tampabaytimes.bsky.social says democracy was over-rated any way.
Executive orders are not binding. You do not have to follow them. Nothing will happen if you disobey and unjust order. That is pivotal. FUCK TRUMP.
Ever since Bezos became a Trumpy, The Washington Post Lives in Darkness, unfortunately!!
Wish I could cancel WaPo again. Just let it die. Something better will replace it.
WaPo is just a ghoulish shadow of its former self. New motto: "Democracy Dies."
Mail in ballots are made of paper- ipso facto….
This is just one of the reasons I did not renew my WAPO subscription.
I doubt Trump has an ID (not to be confused with his massive id).
It isn’t the Washington Post anymore. It’s the Bezos Post and is completely in the tank for Trump.
Does anyone really believe the pumpkin-headed idiot texted that? It's not in ALL CAPS. It doesn't have 200 !!!!!!!!!!! It has some correct punctuation. It looks very suspicious to me. Thank you for your attention to this matter. DOW
Someone please explain to the doddering old clown that his "executive orders" are more useless than used toilet paper.
That’s wasn’t written by president Herpes.
And then you reduce the number of polling stations and shorten the times….
He thinks that paper ballots are Dumb & cannot be tracked... 🇺🇲🏳️⚧️🇺🇦🏳️🌈🇺🇸
Not so wild considering they came right out and said they were prioritizing capitalism
Media sends out a little of this and a little of that to let you believe that they are independently reporting….
Most states already have sort of I D to vote but stupid is as stupid does
I have never been asked for ID when voting in WNY
Jeff Bezos has sold (given) his soul to Trump. We can no longer rely on the Washington Post. Their motto is now a joke. Would that we had an alternative daily paper here.
The Washington Post hasn’t remained silent, oligarch Bezos has remained silent.
In darkness? The President hasn't been seen in nearly a week. The WH have falsified old photos as new, they have faked Trump tweets as written by Trump. It's pretty clear Trump has had a stroke and is not appearing in front of a camera anytime soon, if ever again. There is no going back from here.
Sometimes, when people are sarcastic it devalues how intelligent they are. Some would read this post and think: well he just doesn't like conservatives and is uninformed. Meanwhile you've a Formal Education & are 1of the Esquires of Truth that works toward Free&Fair elections in the USA. ❤️🔥✡️🗽🦁✝️☪️🧲
Not everyone is aware of Brian Tyler Cohen. Not many people know You&Your firm've been working to dismantle gerrymandering in the USA. It's a silly word used to tell people how MAGA will make it so that some households hold a greater scale of electoral votes. Nothing will change without #Votes.🦁🧲
Not everyone understands Sarcasm, or when you use it to act like but 3times better than Criminal In Chief djt. Governor Gavin Newsom is this era's answer to the mechations of the confederacy. The demons changed their names but anti-USA they remain: unpatriotic MAGAts. 🚨🦅🗺️🫖🌺🐝🎼🪬🪄🐉❤️🔥✡️🌟🦁✝️☪️🐦🔥🎭🧬🧜♂️🏳️🌈⚖️🩵🌊🗽🪃🧲
Suppose the WP simply chose to completely surrender to Trump and serve him as stealth state media?
FUN FACT As of August 28, 2025, President Donald Trump (R) had signed 198 executive orders, 48 memoranda, and 83 proclamations In 2014, Barack Obama signed 31 Executive orders www.politico.com/story/2014/0...
Clowns
"Democracy dies in darkness," said the Post before it turned out the lights.
In this case, democracy is dying in the light of day. Just too many people have blinders on.
Says the moron who voted by mail.🙄
It's illegal and unconstitutional. It's also not in his power to do so. Ugh. What am I saying!!? When has that stopped him?
It was a prediction, not a battle cry.
"Democracy Dies in Darkness and Silence" where they are the silence.
There goes my vote.
A really great idea is to cancel Wapo subscription and send that $ to Democracy Docket. One is caving to Trump in A particularly nauseating way while these folks are fighting him at every turn. More bang for the buck!
It’s no longer a warning but their mission statement to ensure Democracy dies in Darkness
Democracy dies in darkness, but Bezos thrives in autocracy.
Did Trump actually write that?? It's readable, so I believe it's not his writing.
Just a reminder that mailing voting uses all paper ballots. Also, due to differing state and local elections and candidate names, no more than 10 or 20,000 people ever get the same ballot configuration, the ballots are identifiable as genuine, and cheating would require too damn much coordination.
Nothing wild about it at all. They’ve picked a side
They are compromised. 😡
“The Far Away Military” God he’s a fucking idiot.
"The far-away military" . . . um excuse, please but does he mean "deployed"? Because inability to find the correct word and substitution of words that are similar but incorrect is a HUGE indicator of dementia; in fact, it's one of the earliest signs. Can someone get him to draw a clock please?
and in the light of day... bsky.app/profile/ones...
Given all his golf club hotels I wonder how many places he votes?
I consider the owner of the The Washington Post, Jeff Bezos, one of the tech bros. They want a technocratic government. They don’t believe in democracy.
BOYCOTT the Washington Post
Their slogan is more of a promise than a warning. They're providing the cover that brings the darkness.
How sad. I subscribed for 30 years. Resubscribe, they keep saying, but give me no good reason to do it Bedsides, those dollars are already going to an increase to my NPR donations.
Do you know what he can do with his unenforceable Executive Orders? I like my vote by mail state. I voted for it. He doesn't have the authority to take my vote away from me, just because he & his ignorant sycophants don't understand how safe it is or how it works.
They didn't say they weren't going to be part of it.
It s probably they know it's a non story really because trump can't really do anything about voter ID or mail in ballots.
Hey. NFW the Felon wrote this. 🤡💩 Proper punctuation, upper and lower case. 🙄
I can’t believe the Bezos Post would do that.
It sounds like their Corporate Mission statement
So I need another ID to vote now?
The only way that GOP can win the next elections is by cheating and fixing the elections
Hey, Doofy. If you’re still alive hear me: I’ll be voting “Yes” by mail in CA to fight Texas’s fascistic power grab. No ID. But on paper. #justiceforVirginia
We are learning about the power of the press, how truth is twisted, and how it is used to brainwash and manipulate people. Journalists are divided into those who have integrity, honesty, and dignity, and those who don't. We have seen the collapse of the power of the press
The Fourth Estate has fallen. Our founding fathers intended us to have an informed electorate, but they have been captured by the current attention economy. It’s up to us to find a way out.
They have to. Their owner kissed the ring.
What a surprise WAPOOH does trump’s bidding.
The Washington Post has retired "Democracy Dies in Darkness" and has adopted, instead, the motto "Amazon: Become a Prime Member Now."
I think he’s either dying or has died. Pritzker has been bashing him all weekend. Not a word, not one word. Never! No posts from family in two days. Something is definitely a miss!
Consider the source. Ignorance doesn’t know facts!
It’s the Washington Post! Synonymous with the New York Post imo.
Do they continue to claim it?
I think Stephen miller is posting on Scump’s social media accounts.
Go to hell Trump!!
And somehow they keep electing the same guy.
Legacy media would like to avoid Trump’s attention, thereby lulling America into complacency!
You sure that’s his tweet? There’s no thank you for your consideration in this matter. 🤦🏻♀️
It’s not him. He’s gravely ill. It’s Stephen Miller.
Its predictable. Exactly what we should expect from corporate suck-ups. Shit-eaters spewing out garbage.
No Donnie. You don't get to decide.
#WashingtonPost killed democracy in darkness!
Trump dies in darkness too apparently
That schmuck cannot curtail our voting rights by executive order!
You misunderstood. “Democracy dies in darkness” wasn’t meant to be a warning, it’s a mission statement.
That was good. And accurate.
Bezos. Not surprising at all.
Didn't Trump mail in his ballots?
He did this almost verbatim in March. What's going to BE in this hypothetical new Executive Order? "No... But I MEAN it!"🙄
Democracy only gets slightly ill when an oligarch owner executes editorial control to promote his interests.
The WaPo ethos is an enigma, oh wait, it doesn’t exist anymore, never mind. How’s the LA times doing?
*claimed
Hey @washingtonpost.com since nobody else will tag you, any thoughts on this?
He can go fuck himself. Washington has been mail in voting as long as I have lived here and never had any issues. You don’t even get to register without being verified. This is just such bullshit.
Washington-Oregon-California-mail in voting works & is easy-which is exactly the problem for iL Duce…
I think Oregon moved to mail-in only voting by way of a citizen initiative. multco.us/info/brief-h...
Also Colorado. I live within walking distance to the post office and 3 drop boxes! I love mail in voting. I travelled for business before we had all mail in in WA, so I voted absentee before mail in. I sometimes missed seeing the old ladies at my polling station!
Marc, they haven't used that slogan since about the time they decided not to endorse for president. That's the day they decided democracy was expendable.
Along with the New York Times and CNN, they’re waiting (and hoping) for “REAL NEWS,” like a new Joe Biden gaffe to surface!
spelled too correctly to be his tweet
Bezos has promised not to reveal.
Not his decision to make for Virginia or any other state!
He forgot to say he is the only one allowed to count the votes.
Now his post note his sign off
Marc .... I am issuing my own Executive Order declaring Trump's Executive Order NULL AND VOID !!!!! I'm also ordering all men to wear their underwear backwards! and to wear it on the outside! (So we can check)
Sorry, Marc. The slogan was edited slightly to Democracy Died in Darkness
Washington Post -- "Democracy Dies in Darkness" - That is when Kathryn Graham stood up to Nixon Those days are long gone
You can not stop state from doing mail in ballets you fucker head.
Just was thinking of the film, "Schindler's List." Where the guy tells the SS, "I'm an essential worker!" Then they shoot him in the head. Any "essential voters" in here?? I'm one.
WaPo died in darkness when Bezos put a stop on the endorsement for President last Fall.
Wouldn’t voter ID help Democrats if it means he’ll finally shut up about voter fraud? Can just show and vote like it’s done in other countries.
The WaPo died in the daylight.
He didn't write that. No fuckin way. Punctuation, no spelling errors. That ain't him
Democracy dies in conflicted financial gains.
Demand that LICENSE PLATES be required, as the Exalted Nit Wit wants!
Executive Orders are NOT AUTOMATICALLY LAWS!
So - keep in mind - when you mail in your ballot, you are not showing a voter ID, are you? This is how he plans to do away with mail in voting. Generally, Arizonans (and citizens of other states. I just happen to be in AZ) ❤️ LOVE mail in voting. Not good. And super sneaky, as usual.
This was not written by him. There’s commas and other punctuation. Not him.
Want to know what's really happening in the US? Read a foreign paper like the UK Guardian. WAPO, NYT? Stenographers
Propagandists.
Maybe the wapo catchphrase is a PLAN!
Does 'silence' count as 'darkness'? because I think silence definitely counts as darkness.
Mail-in ballots ARE FUCKING PAPER, dumbass!!!!
Also, Shitmouth has no legal authority to make such an Executive Order.
Far away military????? Clearly the synapses are not all firing up there. Must be the hat.
Mail-in ballots are paper ballots, fool.
Likely the Post won't attribute anything current to Trump until it can establish with certainty that the man still lives. The Post lawyers are afraid both that he is alive and that he is not.
