It’s been two years since one of our founding Board members, #JudyHeumann, left us. To honor her legacy, you can help save the disability rights law that she helped get passed. Our partner, DREDF, created a resource to stop the attack on #Section504. lnk.to/tvbart [Image: CommunicationFIRST...

Just a reminder: Your representative works for YOU. Every member of the House is back home this week for recess. Republicans must feel the heat for their complicity in the Trump-Musk coup. Democrats must know we’ve got their backs when they fight back. Let's get to work: indivisible.org/musk...

They were discussing Mary Poppins on @alltherightmovies.com and they mentioned that ‘A Spoonful of Sugar’ was inspired by one of the composer’s sons getting the polio vaccine in a sugar cube. A bright, cheery, classic song that sprang from the eradication of a horrific disease.

The beliefs and policies that disabled people are a burden and are better off dead than disabled are not an abstract devaluation of disabled people. They are discrimination. They are eugenics. They are genocide.

The 50501 Movement has planned protests at all 50 state capitols and the U.S. Capitol on Presidents’ Day at noon. While mainstream media isn’t covering it, many YouTubers have stepped up to provide coverage.

Even worse incompetence: they accidentally fired, then apparently today un-fired, hundreds of the people who manage America's nuclear weapons.

Gov. @andybeshearky.bsky.social joined a nationwide lawsuit to protect Kentuckians from Trump’s devastating federal funding freeze that threatens the well-being of families across our Commonwealth. We’re going to fight back no matter what it takes.

Trying to get clarity on DOGE. Today, Press Sec. Karoline Leavitt said information about what DOGE is doing is on the DOGE website. But it is not. A White House spokesperson has clarified to me that she was talking about the X DOGE account, not the actual DOGE website.

I was at a local fundraising event last night and an acquaintance came up to me and said it's good to see you "out." I'm used to older folks saying crap like that to me. In their day we didn't get out much cause we couldn't. This guy was around 40. WTH? I don't think it's ever going to get better.
