Democracy is being defended in the streets, courtrooms, and council chambers all across the country—by people who refuse to let Trump turn America into a dictatorship. Rep. Jamie Raskin just called out how unfit for office Trump is and the regime’s propaganda machine is trying to bury it. Hit the ❤️ like button and re-stack this edition right now to help us break through their noise. We’ve been fighting Trump since 2016—we’ve contacted Congress millions of times, we run one of the biggest social media campaigns against Trump ever, and we fight their lies by spreading the truth. We run on no ads and no billionaires, which is how we stay independent and answer only to you. And we need all hands on deck—join us as a paid subscriber today SIX COUNTIES. THREE JUDGES. ICE LOSES.
The Trump regime’s deportation machine runs on local cooperation—turning taxpayer-funded facilities into federal processing centers. Colorado spent years building a wall against it. A 2019 law bars local police from holding people on ICE’s request alone. A 2023 law bans local governments from contracting with ICE to detain immigrants. Six of Colorado’s reddest counties decided those laws shouldn’t apply to them, and sued the state. They lost in trial, and only one county appealed. Then on April 9, a three-judge panel unanimously said no. In their ruling, Judge Timothy Schutz wrote: “The County is mistaken.” Without local jails, the regime’s deportation machine has nowhere to put people. Colorado just made sure it stays that way. IDAHO BANNED THE FLAG. BOISE DIDN’T.
Idaho’s GOP legislature spent two years trying to remove the Pride flag from Boise’s City Hall. On March 31—Trans Day of Visibility—they finally got it down. A $2,000-per-day fine has a way of forcing compliance. Boise had other plans. One week later, Boise didn’t replace the flag. Instead, rainbow stripes went up on flagpoles, rainbow lights shone on City Hall at night, and signs appeared in windows reading “Creating a city for everyone.” The law said no flags—it said nothing about this. City Council President Meredith Stead said: “We are taking [the flag] down because the law forces us to, but our commitment to every person who has looked at that flag —and felt seen—does not waver for a single moment.” The GOP Rep. who designed the law says he has no plans for another bill. Two years of legislation and Boise is now more visible and more defiant than it was before they started. The GOP lost. TRUMP’S EPSTEIN LAWSUIT THROWN OUT
Trump sued The Wall Street Journal for $10 billion last summer, trying to kill a report that said he sent a creepy and sexually suggestive birthday letter to Epstein in 2003. The letter, bearing what looked like his signature, was released by Congress after they subpoenaed Epstein’s estate for it. On Monday, US District Judge Darrin Gayles threw the whole case out. His verdict on Trump’s legal argument was brutal: “This complaint comes nowhere close to this standard. Quite the opposite.” Trump spent nine months trying to use a $10 billion lawsuit to crack down on press freedoms and make that letter disappear. It didn’t work. The courts won’t let the regime bury it. And we won’t either. Release the Epstein files. All of them. Now. RASKIN DEMANDS TRUMP’S MEDICAL RECORDS
Rep. Jamie Raskin sent a formal letter Friday to White House physician Navy Captain Sean Barbabella with three demands: a full neuropsychological assessment of Trump, a complete report on every medication he’s taking along with their cognitive side effects, and Barbabella’s testimony under oath before Congress. Deadline: April 24. For years, Raskin and others have warned that Trump is unfit for office. Now, as Ranking Member of the House Judiciary Committee, he’s making it official—in writing, with a hard deadline, and the full weight of congressional oversight behind it. Raskin didn’t mince words. “When the President of the United States threatens to extinguish a civilization on social media, rants about combat missions with children at the Easter Egg Roll, and drops profane tirades on Easter morning,” he wrote, “we have indisputably entered the realm of profound medical difficulty and concern.” Raskin is refusing to let Trump sweep the truth under the rug, something we’ve proudly been doing since 2016. This Friday, April 17, Raskin will join us live on Substack at 1:15pm ET to go deeper on all of this and more. The Trump regime has the White House, the House, and the Senate—for now. But momentum is on our side, and the resistance movement is stronger than ever.

Who else LOVES being a part of the resistance! Always! I LOVE BEING A PART OF THIS RESISTANCE!! 🙌❤️🇺🇸 This is the kind of week that reminds us why we fight every single day. Raskin putting Trump’s fitness on the record, Colorado slamming the door on ICE, Boise turning a forced defeat into a full-city rainbow statement, and Trump’s Epstein lawsuit getting thrown out. The resistance isn’t just holding the line—we’re advancing. Proud to be part of this with you all 🔥 What a great way to start the day!!! Kudos to the resistance... keep the momentum going! OMG energizing. Absolutely! I love the way that Pope Leo is fighting back. Ooh rah! Pope Leo could literally cause the fascist regime to shit bricks by coming to the US and meeting with ("name that person(s)"). One thing to use social media, but now literally come and not literally spit on the regime by defying them with his presence. He is the most popular figure in polls so take advantage of it. For his own safety, he should stay far away from the USA. Plus, he should quadruple his security protection as he visits that island (can't remember its name) on July 4th. The Trump regime might try to harm him there. Wishing peace for Leo! YES! I would like to see more faith leaders follow his example and speak up. He's standing his ground admirably💕 The great thing is, in many cases, we’re shutting these prisons down before they even open. And in other cases like in Colorado, we’re simply telling them they can no longer arrest just anybody and drop them off at our jails—unless we agree to it. It means ice won’t be able to just go out and round up whoever they want and sort it out later. These are huge wins for the resistance. It’s about trying to preventing more of exactly what you’re talking about from happening!! There was a recent report of a visit to one of the 'facilities' that included the observation of pregnant women, as well as those who had given birth and were caring for infants. Children are included in too many facilities. No pre-natal care, no post natal care, rotten food, contaminated water. In good conscience, how can FOR PROFIT COMPANIES brag about PROFITS when providing such inhumane and frequently violent conditions? Don't you wonder WHY people voted for a LUNATIC who frequently spoke of his FRIEND, the non-existent HANNIBEL LECTER? Or ranted about ELECTRIC BOATS? He told you he was going to DEPORT PEOPLE - you didn't listen! Never mind the INHUMANITY - you lost HEALTHCARE and FOOD due to this LUNACY! You lost a FUNCTIONING GOVERNMENT! Expertise, experience and protections were FIRED! It was all included in PROJECT 2025! How many more countries will the ORANGE TURD invade or BOMB? Who's next? CUBA? CANADA? GREENLAND? Buyers' REMORSE doesn't matter after making an uninformed VOTE! I encourage people to listen to some of those experts who are speaking out on NPR & PBS! Also check out DAILY DOSE OF DEMOCRACY! |
