trying to imagine how loud the calls for my firing would be if i didn’t know who FDR was
a good example of how the world is getting dumber. the new politico playbook writer didn't know who FDR was until a reader told him about that whole "new deal" thing. this newsletter is read by every important person in DC.

Got my first "Violating an Executive Order" and "I'll make sure you lose federal funding" parent threat today for teaching "DEI" books in our upcoming "Liberty and Justice" themed unit. Even in "Blue" Massachusetts we're dealing with this.
Anyway, don't obey in advance, and don't obey later.

People seem to need periodic reminders. Neutrality is not a virtue when bullies are one of the sides.

We’ve been erased: all disability observances have been removed from Google Calendar.
This is another example of how the disabled community is being shoved back into the shadows.

OF COURSE Greg Abbott is suing to get rid of Section 504!
I’ve never, in my entire life, met a man who hated himself and his community as much as this man does.

Disabled vets struggled to qualify for housing assistance because HUD counted disability benefits as income.
Today, the House passed the Housing Unhoused Disabled Veterans Act to change this. As an original co-sponsor, grateful we’re closer to getting more vets housing.

There are literally people walking around who need a wheelchair, but don't have one.
How? Ambulatory wheelchair users exist. The Disability Fairy who gives out free wheelchairs does not 🧚.
So judging physical disability based on the presence/absence of a wheelchair is nonsense.
