- This is NOT unprecedented. On this day in 1917, Congress passed the Immigration Act to block “undesirable” immigrants. A ban on Asian, Mexican, & Mediterranean migrants. Meanwhile white migrants were given land via the Homestead Act. Trump wants to revive this fascism. Do not let him.
- I feel for individual journalists. I have zero empathy for the Washington Post. Despite the cruel layoffs, their Editorial Board is spending this morning defending ICE fascists. Un-subscribe to them. Subscribe to independent voices that actually uphold human rights: www.qasimrashid.com/subscribe
- Having hoarded $240B, Bezos could do both, but this otherwise sums up the last week. Anyway, if there were any doubt before—legacy media is dead. I welcome your support to my non-billionaire funded human rights newsletter at www.qasimrashid.com/subscribe
- Every single person needs to listen to the testimony of Aaliya Rahman, a disabled woman whom ICE dragged from her car, tortured, and nearly killed. This is fascism, and it is critical we stand united to stop it. Abolish ICE and prosecute its perpetrators. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jrDJ...
- A reminder that Bezos has zero financial need to layoff these journalists, and is only doing so because he wants to destroy the 4th Estate. Invest in independent voices.

- You literally JUST voted with MAGAs in favor of Trump’s budget. Had you and the 20 other Dems who betrayed working people voted with the Democratic Party, Trump’s bill would have failed. No matter how much you try to spin it, your votes don’t lie. You’re pro Trump you shameful hypocrite.
- The Israeli gov has finally admitted that the data from the Gaza Health Ministry on the number of Palestinians killed is in fact accurate. I continue to be astounded by the shamelessness of genocide deniers. And I fear that the actual number of Palestinians killed is far greater.
- Here's an effective way to fight back against ICE fascists. As ICE terrorizes cities nationwide, a group of city prosecutors are coordinating their efforts to criminally prosecute ICE's abuses. You can confidentially support them via the ICE Accountability Fund: app.oath.vote/donate?p=ice...
- Going forward, barring super specific circumstances, I'm retiring the term "white supremacy" to describe Trump & his sycophants—because there's nothing "supreme" about them. Instead, I'll use the term "white narcissism," because they arrogantly and falsely think their skin color makes them better.
- Hey everyone. My current congressman @repbillfoster.bsky.social wants you to know that "as the top Democrat" he has an open mind about a man all over the Epstein Files. Moral bankruptcy doesn't begin to describe this man.
