They’re not going after criminals. “Criminals don’t get up and go to work and pay their bills.”
These are not criminals; they’re hard-working people.

It’s been a pleasure working with Lex and everyone in the politics vertical at Teen Vogue. I’m heartbroken that my column, Disability Visibility, is gone. Teen Vogue was one of the few places that published disabled journalists regularly. I just spent the last 2 months working on my next column
I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.
certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

The progression of more & more divisive language in our politics (& actual governance) has closely followed the progression of concentrations of power. 👇Divisive rhetoric is NECESSARY in order to grab power in this system. It used to be divisive on policy. Gingrich made it personal. Now … the worst.
