Reports are that the incoming fascist admin will start mass deportations on Tuesday, starting in my home city of Chicago. I'll be sharing immigrant rights resources soon in a post. Subscribe for free at www.qasimrashid.com/subscribe Friends—protect yourselves & each other. It will get bad.

Trump on Jack Smith: "He puts people in very bad positions, like giving people death penalties."

The 11th Circuit Court of Appeals denied Judge Aileen Cannon and Donald Trump trying to block the release of the report on Donald by Jack Smith. So much losing for Donald today. 🍿

On it! Will give the list on @joy.msnbc.com The Reidout tomorrow night!

Get this out asap. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Jimmy Carter's funeral is today. I thought I'd look at an important part of his legacy. His anti-racism galvanized white evangelicals and revealed their ugly views decades before MAGA. www.salon.com/2025/01/09/h...

MAGA talk show host.

For the last 5 years, LAPD has received 3x the budget of LAFD. The department that coordinates these incredible emergency responses, the Emergency Management Department, gets about $4million - less than .1% of LAPD’s budget. When you talk to people offline about these fires, drop that in.

Shoutout to the Los Angeles Times reporters who are doing essential journalism under very difficult circumstances. They’ve dropped their paywall, but their ongoing coverage is a good reminder of why local newsrooms need support — and what we lose when those outlets are hollowed out.

$50 billion. “.. put this wildfire event into context, the AccuWeather estimate for the total damage and economic loss from the wildfires in Maui in 2023 was $13-$16 billion.” www.barrons.com/articles/la-...

NEW: The North Carolina Supreme Court issued an extended version of its order blocking the certification of a race for a seat on its own bench, which included extended, scathing dissents from Democratic Justice Anita Earls and Republican Justice Richard Dietz. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

January 6, 2025, by the numbers: ONE certification of election completed ZERO Dems rioting in DC ZERO Capitol Police assaulted ZERO walls smeared with feces ZERO fire extinguishers used as weapons ZERO people chanting "Hang Kamala Harris" ZERO fist-pumping Senators running for his life...

Unbelievable.

Happy New Year

Being Black in America is a crime.

When Patti LuPone says girl, we havin a New Year’s Eve party, you get out of bed and put on glitter. ✨🥂

Kyrsten Sinema's campaign spending looks fishy to us: $3,600 in the UK. $5,400 in France, including $2,800 at a castle in Burgundy. $3,120 to vendors in Italy. How does she explain that, when she's leaving office and not running again?

Democrats passed all this populist legislation, but weren’t able to transmit these accomplishments to the Voting public.

Not looking to politicize what happened in New Orleans in any capacity, however the lead in the investigation is none other than the outstanding men and women of the FBI. The same organization that Kash Patel is nominated to lead and wants to abolish. Think about that for a moment.

A Tesla Cybertruck caught fire in Decatur in DeKalb County, Georgia on New Year’s Eve. Authorities think it’s because of the battery. Elon isn’t having a good week.

'Wake Me Up Before You Go Go' by Wham was released nearer to the end of the Second World War than to today. Happy New Year everyone!

Here’s a New Year’s Resolution: Be on the side that reads books — not the side that bans them.

NEW: The RNC and North Carolina GOP filed a lawsuit alleging that 60,000 voters who cast a ballot in November were not properly registered to vote. Republicans want election officials to contact these voters to verify their identities or reject the ballots. www.democracydocket.com/cases/north-...

70% of the world’s population has universal healthcare, but not the US We are the only highly developed nation without it Our healthcare is twice as expensive as the average wealthy nation US ranks last among industrial nations for deaths that could be prevented with timely access to healthcare

This is a BFD

Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) is inviting a guest to the Jan 6 electoral vote certification at the Capitol on Monday DC officer Daniel Hodges, who was beaten during the US Capitol siege

Bragging about having a steak dinner after 15 people were brutally murdered with dozens of other people in the hospital is not the win you think it is. You’re just evil, disgusting and immoral.

Ahem!!!

Donald Trump uses people. When they are no longer useful to him, he dumps them. Now that Donald doesn't need their votes any longer, MAGA is going to learn this lesson the hard way.

Over 10,000 people appear before New York’s parole board each year, with the average hearing lasting just 15 minutes and, for the 60% of people who are denied, typically no guidance given on how they can secure their release in future. boltsmag.org/new-yor...

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget

Texas--with one of the country's strictest abortion bans, highest maternal mortality rates, and the most women without health insurance--faces an "epidemic" of abandoned babies, some being found in ditches and dumpsters wapo.st/3ZXDbks

Each time I have sat down to write something since the election, I am bothered by this recurring phrase that I simply cannot get out of my head. So, I am going to just say it out loud: we are on our own. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-a...

I will post this everyday for the next 4 years as a reminder that Jan 6th was a day of insurrection.
