FDR won 42 states in 1932, it wasn't by pandering to Hoover voters. Then Republicans called him a socialist for 4 years. Then he ran for reelection and won 46 states

We need a way to be able to filter them out

H Street fest.... Love seeing all the DC residents out enjoying the city. DC is for its residents. Not the federal politicians. #FreeDC

A school of fish riding WMATA. Hope they got free fare. @washprobs.bsky.social

Got my COVID vaccine. DC council gave folks 90 days to get their vaccine without a prescription. CVS let me do it today. Walgreens refused me yesterday. Hopefully the CDC will loosen the rules after the ACIP vote yesterday. Get your vaccine to protect yourself and to protect your loved ones.

Who would have guessed? Smh

A man caged by ICE was found dead in his cell inside a Long Island jail 18 hours after arriving there.

I genuinely cannot believe that Ezra Klein said we should run pro-life candidates in Kansas, Ohio, and Missouri; three states that recently held abortion referendums where the pro-choice side won!

I am not so eager for the left to win that I'll go along with folks who are willing to trade marginalized peoples' rights to do it. I cannot and will not sell my soul.

The amount of energy these folks put into respectability is disastrous

On Sept. 15, Israeli forces fired on a clearly marked MSF water truck delivering 10,000 litres in #Gaza City’s Sheikh Radwan. Destroying infrastructure while making humanitarian aid nearly impossible is not just cruel, it’s illegal.

The rise of remote work coming out of the pandemic led to a historic rise in employment rates for those with disabilities. Return to office policies, in general, could reverse that trend." Thanks @emilypeck.bsky.social for interviewing me. www.axios.com/2025/09/17/c...

So when is mainstream gunna say the word fascism?

🚨ICE Alert 🚨ICE has been spotted at the intersection of 14th St NW and Missouri, with various arrests since this morning. Please avoid the area if possible.

You can always choose who you give your money to

When we need brave folks to fight fascism, we get centrists fighting those attempting to fight for freedom. "I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate...who is more devoted to “order” than to justice." Rev. MLK Jr.

Re-upping this: Especially if you're in the first category, pregnant and struggling to get a Covid shot or confused by federal guidance, I would love to hear from you. [email protected]

Highly suggest you read some of the persons work before scheduling a coffee with them to talk about their work. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Broke clock is eventually right

Meanwhile, Brian Kilmeade, who advocated killing all homeless people, still has a cushy Fox job.

if Jimmy Kimmel's political humor is too hot for you to handle, I'm not sure "snowflake" even cuts it as a term of derision for the level of fragility you've achieved

Pathetic.

Enjoyed speaking at the first annual Disability Economic Consortium symposium. Threats to disabled people are threats to everyone.

The fear of the word socialism has been utilized to force low income folks to vote against their own needs & concerns. It's important to understand that many of the programs we rely on, from public ed to firefighters & roads are all based on socialist principles. www.teenvogue.com/story/gen-z-...

Ta-nehisi Coates piece is excellent. Please read. www.vanityfair.com/news/story/c...

A second mass shooting of a homeless encampment in Minneapolis. Five more people died. Meanwhile, congress is working on passing the ability to jail homeless people for up to 30 days or charge them $500. It bans camping on public property. abcnews.go.com/US/people-hu...

Do they realize that just because they delete it doesn't mean it disappears?

This is a good question. How can any of congress trust the administration to follow the law around funding if they are already not following it?

Brian Kilmeade stated homeless individuals who are resisting mental health treatment should be given "involuntary lethal injection, or something. Just kill ’em." This weekend, there was a mass shooting of a homeless encampment. It barely made a blip on the news. www.startribune.com/shooting-sou...

Two likely lynchings in Mississippi yesterday. Trey Reed Cory Zukatas We need an outside independent investigation.

Big dog on campus

I dont think people quite understand that we are going back to openly utilizing the ugly laws on both sides of the political aisle. How do we rebuild empathy & compassion into the general population and in particular those w/ any amount of power. I will not accept that we are doomed.

Sadly too real

Wow a big step

You can find me searching for all the unique squirrels in DC

Excellent point

From supporting the genocide of Palestinians to supporting Kirk. Selma Blair decided to go down an awful path.

WSJ must retract the information stating the bullets had trans messaging.

Immigrants, people of color, and Trans folx all taking a deep breath. We live in a world where every headline puts you on edge, waiting to see if your community will be targeted by politicians, media, and society just because you exist.

Good news

As I think of 9/11, I think of what Palestinians are facing everyday. It must be terrifying to be waiting for the next bomb to drop.

Good advice from the wise Link

Gun violence affects us all. It's not a left or right issue. It's an issue for all humanity.

One terrifying thing about the Tylenol RFK lie is it could eventually cause women to be incarcerated for child abuse. Tylenol is one of the safest over the counter drugs to help bring down fever and RFK is going to make things much more dangerous.

It’s Disability Voting Rights Week! I’m researching voting rights for people under guardianship & looking to speak with someone currently under guardianship who cannot vote. We can connect however works best for you, & I’ll send questions in advance. DMs welcome and reposts appreciated!

‼️ FREE LEQAA NOW ‼️ The Trump regime’s outrageous detention of Leqaa Kordia is designed to sow terror and stop people of conscience from calling for Palestinian freedom.
