If New Yorkers are wondering who will fight back against Federal overreach, we have visible evidence today that Zohran Mamdani and Brad Lander are the candidates that you should rank 1 or 2 Lander literally resisted federal overreach and Mamdani showed up immediately to have his back Fuck Cuomo

And the person who turned up to support him with no notice is the Muslim dude who have cross endorsed each other and who the msm has been going into overtime to cast him as antisemitic

For the folks talking about the "3.5% rule", remember that after you come out for a rally you also need to take part in organized, effective resistance. Materially disrupt things. Make trouble. Create support networks to feed your neighbors and bail out protesters. Don't show up just one day.

Not all disabled people have family or friends who can take care of them. Charities are woefully ill equipped to provide the level of care many of us need. Being abandoned for being sick is common, and it’s not our fault. Disability is not & has never been a moral failing.

Cuts have consequences, illustrated. As seen on TV 📺

It still blows my mind that everyone would rather be sick all the time than mask. I haven’t stopped masking and I don’t intend to. We live in a different world now. Your facade of normalcy is cracked with constant airborne illness.

Really hard to want to go to pride events because I know I will just get grouchy. People won’t be wearing masks. Events won’t be accessible. Palestine won’t be included. No effort is made to cater to anyone that isn’t white and able bodied. I am sick of lack of intersectionality in Pride.

Disabled people are begging for your solidarity right now. This admin is embracing eugenics at break neck speed. They’re setting the stage to blame us for our disabilities so they can remove access to care, social supports, medications & more. Fight back (and wear a mask when you do!)

In 2012, Trayvon Martin's murderer, George Zimmerman, was acquitted. As part of the response, the world marched and screamed because Black lives matter. This movement for Black lives set the stage for 5 years ago, 5.25.2020, amidst the peaking pandemic,

Crockett: They have nothing to show for it except for those top earners being able to have their next trophy wife or buy their next yacht, or get their next plane, that doesn't work for me. And that obviously does not work for my constituents.

There was one thing RFK Junior said today that made a lot of sense so I’m gonna share it:

staffers are still cleaning up the Kristi Noem mess after she got gutted/filleted by @chrismurphyct.bsky.social this is A MOMENT. #MustWatch 🧢 @trumpfile.org

Everyone in the past was neurotypical, which is how we got things like this single-author, eight-volume encyclopedia of ferns

Sesame Street had him pegged back in 1988.

If you think disabled people are less than, you’re part of the problem If you won’t wear a mask because our health isn’t your responsibility, you’re fuelling eugenics If you’re concerned with whether people are “faking” to get below poverty line supports, you’re making it harder for us to survive

Good Night World

we need to spend more time with @repdangoldman.bsky.social's clip. not a single penny toward disaster relief but TONS OF YOUR CASH to "protect" drumpf's golf habit 🧢 @mrsquirrel.bsky.social @zentrixter.bsky.social

Federal police state incoming

Pritzker: As a Ukrainian American Jew who built a holocaust museum… let me say this to Donald Trump: Stop tearing down the constitution in the name of my ancestors. Do not claim that your authoritarian power grabs are about combatting anti-semitism.

In an ideal world every disabled person would have a care coordinator for their treatment or management. The amount of admin we, or our carers, need to do is extortionate and unmanageable for so many.

All our relations 🆘💙🇺🇸

Volz: I’m 102 years old. I taught for more than 20 years and have always been a great believer in American independence and good taste. We have a president who has no dignity and no sense of the dignity of a human being, especially one who is old and expects to die any minute.

You can eat all organic food, drink green juice every day, do yoga, get vitamin D and touch grass… and still become disabled. Wellness culture can’t save you from disability. What’s worse, most wellness “gurus” will blame you when you become ill. Wellness culture is toxic & eugenics adjacent.

Difference?

Raskin: The president derives his powers only either from the Constitution explicitly or from an act of Congress and Congress certainly has never given the president the power to relocate prisoners to foreign countries and there's nothing in the constitution that remotely vests that power…

“I had Covid & I’m fine’” Minimizers will crow about how “mild” their infections were. If you speak with them more, they say how tired they are. That they get sick more often. They can’t taste or smell. Mask up. Every Covid infection is a roll of the dice. You could end up permanently disabled.

This is our moment in history to stand.
