I’m sick and tired of the tragedy narrative for people with disabilities. Everyone should watch this short documentary. Dr Bentley is an inspiration. youtu.be/3zZicfThv8A?...

Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game. The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.

Pritzker: "No one in the administration -- the president or anybody under him -- has called anyone in my administration or me. It's clear that in secret they're are planning this invasion with US troops."

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration. So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives. So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

A friend drove two hours today for her breast cancer chemotherapy only to learn it was canceled due to NIH cuts. Clinical trial ended midstream. No treatment, no restart, no plan, no information. Her bro-in-law's chemo was also canceled.

In Wisconsin public schools are reimbursed for about 30% of Special Education costs. Private voucher schools are reimbursed at least 90%. Private schools are not required to follow the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act. learninmyshoeswi.org #education #wisconsin #publicschools

While she emphasized returning power to local governments, she also echoed Trump’s call for the federal government to police what schools are teaching. Not sure how you return power but then don’t return all of it.

If you want to eat the most expensive eggs you’ve ever had in your life, you should have backyard chickens. Don’t get me wrong, I love them and have raised them, but they are an expensive hobby.

Since Congress’s allotted funds have already been improperly unallocated, U.S. citizens are questioning whether they are legally required to continue paying federal taxes.

I subsist on Social Security Disability/Medicare/Medicaid/SNAP. Medicaid pays the majority of my medications. Due to my disabilities & chronic illnesses I rely on 38 different medications annually. 1 of my medications for Lupus has slowed the progression of the disease. Without access I would die.😔

If members of Congress—like Rep. Grothman —are this clueless about what the man who is dismantling our government is saying and promising, they don’t deserve to keep their jobs! This woman is in his face, begging him to wake TF up—and he just walks off. Pathetic.

Under no circumstances should anyone willingly go to a wellness farm gulag, nor should anyone else allow anyone else to be sent to one. They would be centers of torture and slavery where people will die en mass.
