Those who seek to create registries of people with disabilities are never on the right side of history.

Auschwitz was not a single camp. It was 40 camps...in Poland.

Hitler sent people to die in foreign prisons without a trial.

Do you get why we call you nazis now?

I hope you can take the 18 minutes to watch this. I spent over 50 hours on this video, making sure I got every detail right.

I dismantle every single argument Trump and his people have made. No fake humility here.

Will be adding the Substack now.

When I think about RFK Jr. and his stance on autism, I can’t help but think about how his aunt was lobotomized because she had an intellectual disability.

I bet Trump has a team of people working on how to make the Pope’s funeral all about him.

Florida State University shooting live updates: Active shooter reported on Tallahassee campus

Active shooter reported at Florida State

Active shooter on Florida State’s campus. Reports of multiple hospitalizations.

Every shooting breaks my heart, but having received two graduate degrees from FSU, this particular one hits close to home.

We cannot let mass shootings continue to be normalized.

Enough is enough.
