If MAGA Fascists believed their own lies they’d demand the national guard take over all their states with a permanent military occupation. But every MAGA accusation is a confession. Continue to call out their lies. (Invite yall to support my human rights advocacy www.qasimrashid.com/subscribe ❤️✊🏽)

Two headlines in the New York Times today.

Today was truly inspiring. Something happened that we’ve never seen before, you made noise in places that rarely see protests like this. Communities across traditionally conservative areas hosted historic turnouts.

Sign of the day…

Breaking: The Supreme Court announces that publication of Justice Alito’s dissent in the deportation case will be delayed as it is translated from its original German.

“Americans think they’re so special with their orange celebrity president. Well guess what? We have our own celebrity version of Don the Con. Meet Yolk Hogan, the leader of the Literal Party. -Literal Party Press Statement Photo: Yves Adams

I love Daredevil, but I had to suspend disbelief over the premise of Born Again re. Mayor Kingpin. The idea that voters would knowingly elect a convicted criminal who then subverts the rule of law and uses government to carry out personal vendettas seems a little far-fetched, doesn't it?

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

Grandpa Trump is hallucinating again. He claims: 📌Gas is $1.98 📌Grocery prices are “substantially down” 📌Eggs are easy to find and the price has dropped 92% None of that is even remotely true.

Ooops! Ooopsie! Did we do that? We didn't mean to do that. Definitely don't blame us for doing that. Oops! Day one funding freeze Oops! Ebola Oops! Nuclear security workers Oops! Bird flu Oops! PEPFAR Oops! HHS firings And on and on and on... Now this. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/18/b...

If we make it through this dark period with democracy intact, it may be because the administration's incompetence was greater than its depravity.

AmeriCorps volunteers were told to stop working on projects ranging from rebuilding homes destroyed in storms, to readying a summer camp for kids, to distributing supplies for hurricane recovery, and prepare to immediately travel back to their homes. www.wired.com/story/doge-c...

So the White House story is now: “We didn’t mean to threaten Harvard, because we didn’t mean to send the threatening letter we sent, but when Harvard rejected the threats we made but didn’t mean to make, we decided to threaten them twice more.” The country is now run by thugs and idiots.

Oh he was so close to being prophetic. So close 😑🖕

!! CALL TO ACTION !! #Booksky please join me in the fight to save our libraries. EveryLibrary is working hard to save the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), which is the federal agency charged with distributing Congressionally approved funds to state libraries and grant recipients.

Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries, in a letter shared with members, has requested a one-on-one debate on the House floor with Speaker Mike Johnson on the budget.

Nice try.

Moskowitz: When President Zelenskyy came to the White House, we heard a lot about what he was wearing. Oh my God, the precious Oval Office—he didn’t wear a suit! I mean, here’s a picture of Kid Rock in the Oval Office—he looks like he’s about to jump over 10 buses on the White House lawn.

#HandsOffProtests

Hosting the Olympics and World Cup are going to be impossible. What athlete in their right mind would risk coming to the US now?

It’s really, really hard to swallow losing $10T in market value to “fix” a $1T trade defecit.

Dear millionaires, You’re not billionaires. You’re not in the fuckin’ club. ~ The 99%

My law firm is currently litigating 50 voting and election cases in 21 states. I expect new cases will be filed this week. States with the most cases: AZ, GA, NC, NV, FL, LA, PA.

Why aren’t we demanding more attention to this event? Aren’t we entitled to know everything about the young shooter, his family and what the investigations revealed? This stunt stinks to high heavens.

60 MINUTES: “75% of the men sent to the El Salvador mega-prison had no criminal records… the only evidence Trump’s government presented against Andrys (a gay makeup artist) were pictures of his mom & dad tattoos…” Horrific. In all of our names. 🇺🇸 www.facebook.com/share/15wy7b...

The economy is in free fall. The markets are collapsing. Our soldiers are dying. Our sensitive information is being leaked over text message and gmail. Random people are being kidnapped and sent to foreign torture prisons. And Trump is fucking golfing.

Republicans in Congress can repeal every tariff tomorrow and take Trump’s tariff authority away from him. But they choose not to. So every Republican in Congress owns EVERY SINGLE BIT of this. You can’t hide from the voters forever.

At this rate, things are going to get much, much worse.

GOP Senators voted to cancel Donold’s tariffs on Canada. I almost forgot that Congress could rebuke him if they really wanted to.

Sign of the day…Chicago

In 3 sessions, S&P 500 futures have plunged about 15%. Legit market crash

Is this who we are? 😳🇺🇸

Unless it's measles. Or COVID. Or syphilis.

Yes, this is crass. But also…

you, a rube: “i want my kid to grow up to be a doctor or an engineer or a teacher” lutnick, a genius: “to make america great again your child will make iphones that they will not be able to afford”

“This does not just affect North Carolina,” Riggs said. “This is like dropping a match in a really dry forest. And if we let this kind of anti-democratic effort take hold, we will not be able to contain it. So this is a fight for the very soul of democracy. Today’s decision was deeply misinformed.”

Where is our humanity?

We’re building a #PeoplesMovement. Today, over 3 million people across the country stood up to say HANDS OFF our democracy. 
And history shows that when just 3.5% of the population engages in sustained, peaceful resistance—transformative change is inevitable. #50501movement #HandsOff #April5

WATCH: “Ron Vara is an anagram of Navarro.” @maddow.msnbc.com explains how Trump’s tariffs policy came from his economic advisor Peter Navarro, who invented a fake expert in his books to justify it🤦🏻‍♂️ 🤦🏼 And now markets are crashing 🎪 #TrumpTradeWar #AmericanBrexit

Of all the things he’s stolen from us, our national dignity is the worst.

She shouldn’t have to be out in the Kansas City cold, worried about her financial future. #HandsOff #KansasCity

There are 32m small businesses in the USA

I am enjoying seeing all these #handsoff protests springing up around the country in towns both big and small. It's a hopeful thing to witness in such dark, scary times. And I love these DC protest signs.
