@lavernecox.bsky.social : Trans people are less than 1% of the population. Trans people are not the reason you can’t buy eggs… I think you’re focused on the wrong 1%. #TheView

We have to stay focused…
Trump is trying to “flood the zone” so we focus on a few outrages that we find most offensive and lose sight of the big picture.

Trump targeting people with disabilities is dishonest and unseemly. There’s no evidence that had anything to do with Wednesday’s plane crash, and the law requires that any person with a disability must be qualified for the specific task and “able to perform the essential functions of the job."
People with intellectual disabilities do lots of jobs — but they don't direct air traffic
After the fatal crash over the Potomac River, President Trump blamed diversity hiring. But that's not how disability hiring works.

Still not watching the inauguration live, tho. Joining with millions of others who are NOT tuning in. Flat out refuse to add to his “crowd size” in any way.

I invite you to do the same.

Have a meaningful #MLKDay! ✊🏽🤎✊🏽
