Not to mention the slashed budget at the CDC and all of the DOGE cuts

The Pentagon just failed its 8th consecutive audit and still got approved for a $1 TRILLION budget without blinking so I'm gonna need every corrupt hypocritical politician complaining about made up food stamp fraud and forcing drug tests and work requirements on poor people to shut up forever. Thx.

Today I host two amazing guests. Ali Partovi has built a remarkable free app called Sway, which takes the power we collectively have and applies it towards actual voting booths. And running for Illinois Comptroller—Karina Villa—if elected, would decide how our tax dollars are distributed.

Saying “Free Palestine” is considered antisemitic but dehumanizing Muslims as less than dogs is considered free speech for which this MAGA member of Congress will face zero consequences whatsoever.

"You keep hearing the House will flip Blue in 2026. But here’s the real question: “What kind of Blue will it be?” Corporate-friendly? Or people-powered?" CI Courage Candidate Salaam Bhatti @salaambhattiva.bsky.social on why the primaries REALLY count. salaambhatti.substack.com/p/the-primar...

Hakeem Jeffries says he will always support the incumbent Democrat over a primary challenger AND he says he will continue to take AIPAC money even when AIPAC is targeting the incumbent Democrat. You can't do both Mr. Minority Leader. It's literally overt hypocrisy & it's killing the party.

Make sure that these kids know: this is what the REPUBLICANS are doing. They LIKE DOING IT. Democrats have to be clear: we will FIGHT to stop them! (Looking at you, Chuck and Hakeem)

snip: This is not the first time Senate Dems have claimed they wld stand firm, only to collapse at the moment of consequence. ... you can help stop this shutdown, work to abolish ICE, & work to end the cycle of Dem capitulation. Apply immense pressure. It is the only language (they) understand.

Are we great yet? Our children are running terrorized because armed deadly agents of the state are chasing them and terrorizing them. This is modern day slave catcher mentality. This is not freedom. This is fascism. This must be abolished. Abolish ICE. Period. youtube.com/shorts/g9J3y...

Muslims barely make up over 1% of Americans. It’s safe to say there is a zero chance that Shariah Law is ever established in the U.S. But yes, anti-Shariah hysteria is rooted is pure bigotry.

No, “shariah law” is not taking over and anti-shariah bills are grounded in stupidity, not the Constitution. Watch as I dismantle the ignorant bigotry and Islamophobic hate from Georgia State Senator Greg Dolezol in just about 2 minutes. youtube.com/shorts/QjRvv...

The federal government is barreling toward yet another shutdown. This crisis was entirely avoidable. Here’s what Democratic leadership must do to stand their ground this time. www.qasimrashid.com/p/another-sh...

MAGAs keep whining that we have "TDS" because we won't stop demanding full unredacted release of the Epstein Files. I'll tell you what, I'd much rather be accused of having TDS than actually having their PDS—Pedophile Defender Syndrome. But it's definitely not a cult. smh

Saturdays, I share the articles and interviews you may have missed during the week. Here's your weekly recap of Let’s Address This. Plus a Dad joke.

I think there's very strong evidence that Trump is currently committing genocides at home and abroad, and I think the evidence will only mount.

It's the Trump administration's moves to Make America White Again.

I know we aren't surprised! The regime hates anyone who isn't white, a pedophile, or Christian.

It would be better if those who are all about their white culture, just return to their family's country of origin. We have a wonderful multicultural society and we'd like to freely love our neighbors.

A strong case for the likelihood that the Trump regime is committing genocide domestically. But confronting this would also require Americans - including establishment Democrats - to acknowledge that both Biden and Trump administrations have enabled the #GazaGenocide.

This is a well written, logical discussion on whether the US is in the midst of a genocide 😣

Remember when we told you it was never about “come here legally”? The Trump regime is expanding efforts to strip citizenship from foreign-born Americans — folks like me. It was always about developing a white ethnostate ruled by fascists.

As a human rights lawyer, I cannot ignore this potential conclusion. Genocide is defined in binding international law. When evidence suggests conduct falls within its scope, we have a duty to examine it, not dismiss it reflexively.

Free speech! No state media! The FCC must follow the law! Call your senators ( 202) 224-3121 to oppose the NextStar TEGNA merger! It takes 5 minutes.

This Trump nominee is a disgrace; white supremacists shouldn't be in our government—but already are.

Donald Trump is nominating actual N*zis and white narcissists to the State Department. This isn’t unprecedented. Sadly, it’s a revival of the centuries of racism that has infected our country. youtube.com/shorts/cosmu...

This year, Ramadan begins Feb 19. I'll have a lot to say once the holy month begins. For now, I’d like to share preliminary thoughts and why this is my favorite time of the year. Read, subscribe, and share your questions. They’ll help inform the articles & videos I produce this blessed month.

The Republican Party is a fully fascist dictatorship. Change my mind.

"this bill would force those deployed abroad to come home just to register to vote in person. That’s right. Supporters of the SAVE Act want soldiers stationed overseas to abandon their posts just to jump through bureaucratic hoops to reregister to do what they’re already registered to do securely."

Think how diabolical the results will be. If this passes, some people will say, "well, just get your birth certificate, then." How many of us were born in "red" where the county records person is a GOP elected and will slow-roll your ability to get your birth certificate. Poll taxes are illegal.

Republicans are misogyists. Full stop.

Republicans are pushing the SAVE Act not to stop voter fraud, but to disenfranchise millions of women & minorities. Since 1992, women have voted blue by 4 to 13 points. Rather than change policy to earn women's votes, they're changing rules to prevent women's votes. That's dictatorship. That's MAGA.

Trump doesn't care about farmers. He doesn't care about anyone except himself. Farmers are going bankrupt?...Trump says: oh well, nobody to blame but yourself, you should have worked harder You can also blame Democrats because they are against Trump's trade war that is killing farmers in the US

In the 2024 election, approximately 85 percent of U.S. farmers indicated they planned to vote for Donald Trump. 👍

Over a million times!

And yet these morons will continue voting for him. Smdh

Under Trump's first year back in the White House, U.S. Farm bankruptcies rose 46% in 2025. The last time farm bankruptcies were this high was way back in 2020—when Trump was President. Who woulda thought that a failed businessman and convicted fraudster who promotes tariffs could do this???

Today I went live with award winning educator George @theconsciouslee.bsky.social of Houston, TX. In our most watched Substack live ever, we discuss Trump's push to build concentration camps in TX, the connection between these camps and the historic reality of enslavement and genocide in the U.S.

Rep To Khanna lays it out

After reviewing the Epstein files, Rep. Ro Khanna went on the House floor to demand accountability & read aloud the names of the wealthy men who have committed horrific abuse of children and faced zero consequences. This is the leadership we need right now. Watch his full remarks and my response.

Please take a couple minutes to listen to Qasim's warning

🚨🚨🚨I.M.P.O.R.T.A.N.T.🚨🚨🚨

Time to join Sway, if you haven't already.

I know everything is on fire right now but please take 2 min to watch & share. We are on the cusp of losing our free speech & enacting state media because FCC Chair Brendan Carr is pushing through Trump’s NextStar TEGNA merger. youtube.com/shorts/QQFkc...
