**Image description:** An infographic about visible and invisible disabilities on a light gray background.

At the top, the text reads "SOME DISABILITIES LOOK LIKE THIS" above a row of seven stick figure icons showing people with various visible mobility aids and disabilities: a person standing, a person using a cane, a person using crutches, a person using a wheelchair, a person using a walker, a person using a cane, and a person using a prosthetic leg.

Below that, the text reads "SOME LOOK LIKE THIS" above a single stick figure icon of a person standing without any visible mobility aids or indicators of disability.

At the bottom, the text reads "Just because you can't see it, doesn't mean it's not there."

The image raises awareness that many disabilities are invisible and not immediately apparent to others.

Another night in embattled Portland. After they pepper sprayed the frog, the inflatable cartoon legion of antifa has only continued to multiply. When history writes of this moment, they will say the revolution began with the puffy animals.

I hope the Gaza ceasefire holds, though history makes it hard to believe it will.

Meanwhile, Trump’s showing how small men wield power, targeting Letitia James out of pettiness and spite.

He’s thrown everything at her and she hasn’t flinched.

That’s real power.

NY AG James knows where her faith lies as she eloquently stated, fear and faith cannot occupy the same space. No weapon formed against her will prosper, especially the Pedo-President’s weaponization of the justice system. Let’s talk about it.

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.

I am not fearful — I am fearless.

We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

This evening, Israel’s government approved the first phase of a ceasefire deal, which a Hamas negotiator said came with U.S. guarantees that the war “has ended completely.”

Many Palestinians are celebrating that this genocide might finally be at the beginning of an end -- but what comes now?
