Some of us didn’t melt down on the Sunday shows. The President can continue writing checks he can’t cash — we’ll continue meeting him in court every time. Thank you @democracyforward.org.
Attacks on voting rights will not be tolerated. Lawyers will be working every single day to protect the right to vote – and the American people will step forward too.
@skyeperryman.bsky.social joins @theweekendmsnow.bsky.social to discuss.

Removing President Trump’s name from the Kennedy Center branding is just the beginning.
The courts and the American people will continue to see through his unlawful schemes.

This week, we joined hundreds of content creators who are using their platforms to advocate for good at Trending Up Con.
The internet is a powerful force — and we’re committed to continue bringing the fight for democracy to new audiences alongside creators.
Unlawfully censoring “the soldiers’ paper” is an insult to the members of the armed forces who dedicated their lives to protecting our constitutional principles – including freedom of speech.
That’s why we’re suing to protect Stars and Stripes in court.
As the Trump-Vance admin is attempting to evade accountability and create one of the most brazen abuse of taxpayer funds in modern history, we are seeing two senators — a Democrat and a Republican — join our fight to oppose this corrupt slush fund.
A DOGE team member signed a voter data agreement with an organization the government's own filings say tried to undermine state elections. Skye Perryman of Democracy Forward tells us all about it in today's new episode: https://youtu.be/1D0AHiUmXRA
Over the last few years, I’ve heard from so many people who care deeply about what’s happening in our country but aren’t sure where to start.
That’s why I wrote Ordinary People, Extraordinary Times.
The court's ruling reaffirms: the federal government cannot shut down lawful immigration pathways based on political targeting, fear, and discrimination.

We sit down with Skye Perryman to talk about what happens when democratic institutions are tested and ordinary citizens are forced to defend them. A lawyer who left corporate practice to help build Democracy Forward, she explains how her organization has challenged government actions in court while uncovering allegations involving DOGE, Social Security data, and election-related activities. We discuss voting rights and why legal victories alone are not enough. She says the future of American democracy will depend on whether people demand change rather than waiting for institutions to save them.
