Iโ€™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

Biggest insider trading market manipulation scheme in history.

They aren't even bothering to hide it.

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 Trumpโ€™s call for the federal government to police what schools are teaching. Not sure how you return power but then donโ€™t return all of it.

If you want to eat the most expensive eggs youโ€™ve ever had in your life, you should have backyard chickens.

Donโ€™t get me wrong, I love them and have raised them, but they are an expensive hobby.

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