As with veterans, the gutting of the federal workforce will target harm to employees with disabilities. These positions are a lifeline to independence, autonomy, social integration, and agency. We’re dismissing these exceptional workers for what, exactly?
An independent civil service is so important for so many reasons. One overlooked one is that it offers economic opportunities to people who would not otherwise get them from the private sector.

A Rockville woman with developmental disabilities was laid off from NIH after 30 years. What’s next for her is uncertain.
Andrea Geller loved her job in the mailroom at NIH. But after she was laid off, she's struggling to find a job accommodating her disabilites.

We, the daughters and sons of Tuskegee Airmen will continue to teach their important role in our collective history. Trump's "order" is racist trash. 🗑️My dad was an Airman and I'll be damned if they erase him and his fellows.

Great words for Tizzy as well as greene_tee from TikTok. When we can’t use the right words, it diminishes what it really is.
Words matter. By not calling it what it is, we minimize the experiences of survivors everywhere. It’s rape. And those who perpetrate it are rapist. And it is unacceptable.
The notion that we have a rapist in line to be potus is disgusting. I will never own that.

In 1961, Hamer was subjected to a hysterectomy without her consent during an operation to remove a uterine tumor. At that time, it was a common practice in Mississippi to forcibly sterilize poor African American women as a method of population control. /3

Hamer also bought 40 acres of land and established the Freedom Farm to supplement the nutritional needs of marginalized Americans. The Farm also supported housing development and a business incubator for people with work experience but limited education. /8

Tooo damn predictable
Going after NPR and PBS. Not surprised by it. Bastards.
After Musk positioned himself as a champion of free speech, he's taking extraordinary efforts to silence any honest criticism & independent research.
Now he's gunning for public media.
Does anyone see they hypocrisy & conflict of interest?

They will incite and then leak fake, superficial “scandals”. This is a smokescreen for the legal steps they will be taking towards totalitarianism.
