Trump publicly mocked a disabled reporter and he still won the election.
He said his own disabled nephew should be “left to die” and he still won the election.
It’s no surprise to any disabled people that 2025 was ICE’s deadliest year on record.
This is a eugenicist regime.

Before Keith Porter, Renee Nicole Good and Alex Pretti… ICE killed a father after he dropped his kids off at school.
We didn’t hear much about it because he was undocumented.
They said he was trying to flee & shot him in the back of the neck.

This and the 「 joy ! 」 did it for me w/ Ds more than @kamalaharris.com arguing with trump over who is the bigger fracker and abandoning trans people and immigrants and chasing after racist Rs who would never vote for her and wanting to oversee 「 the most lethal fighting force in the world 」
The idea that she would have stopped the genocide (or would be “better” whatever that means when you’re taking about a genocide) is a fiction created by liberals to retcon her stance to make it seem like the people opposing her were irrational. But you told us how much you care about Gaza then.

People are asking a lot “how is this happening?” It’s happening the way abolitionists have warned you for decades it’s happening — you can’t dehumanize whole groups of people, pay for their brutalization & not expect for more bounty hunters to come.

ICE didn’t just kill Wael, they ensured his last months were full of suffering.
He knew he would die without his father.
His father was the person who made him feel safe.
Safety is a rare feeling when you’re disabled.

Covid is a social justice issue.
If you’re fighting fascism, you should care about Covid.
It’s a mass disabling event.
It disproportionally kills and disables marginalized people.
Mitigations cost money. Paid time off is rare. Healthcare is under siege.
