Just an incalculable loss from which we won’t soon recover.
Alice was the best of us and I hope we all do (or keep doing) the kind of good work that burnishes her memory.
Fuck ableism. “Don’t let the bastards grind you down.”

While we wait for the 9th (and now 7th) Circuit to address the issue of guard deployment, I keep coming back to this. If Portland's "facts on the ground" are legally sufficient to deploy military on our streets, the days of whimsy as protest are over. Because why bother. 🧵 1/x
The coming national horror is that if Portland's *truly* minimal level of protest justifies federalizing and deploying troops, they can and will be federalized and deployed anywhere the President wants and whenever he wants.
My initial read on this argument: Judge Nelson is eager to disagree with his 9th Cir. colleagues that federalizing the NG is reviewable at all.
He's also eager to disagree with Judge Immergut that the Portland protests were small and under control.

If people just got comfortable saying disabled and disability and reckoned with these as neutral identity markers, without the implied pity and assumption that they’re some kind of punishment that remove a person’s possible contentment or humanity, we’d be better off. But instead we get ableism.
