The problems with MAID in context.
Human euthanasia cannot be considered as a standalone question, because like everything else, it has to exist in the worst societal contexts – some that are a reality right now.
Steve Bannon to the left of NPR on Medicaid cuts.
Medicaid funding is a foundation of a great deal of Northeastern Pennsylvania, but we can’t be complacent that our politicians won’t take marching orders from tycoons like Elon Musk. More uninsured people racking up medical debt they can never ever pay off never made anything better in America for those people or anyone else. NPR […]
Harming disabled people was always part of the project.
I’m really concerned because a lot of people I talk to, or see posting in forums or on social media, seem to not realize that disabled people are being targeted by anti-DEI and anti-woke policy. I keep seeing people saying things like that they’re stopping funding for disability services at schools and such because “transition” […]
Schools don’t have to overturn ADA compliance based on White House central government DEI edicts.

Neera Tanden’s missteps and the disability justice information space.
A reputation that was never that great. Neera Tanden has been accused of Hatch Act violations while working at the White House. This embarrassment is not unexpected sadly. Government Executive – Senior White House official violated the Hatch Act, OSC says A filing with the Merit Systems Protection Board alleges that Biden’s domestic policy advisor […]
From pandemic denial conspiracy fictions, to anti-trans… extremists took over yet another school board in Pennsylvania.
This seems to be a recurring theme, and the school board anti-trans bathroom garbage and Black history book bans, is also tied up with pandemic misinformation, and it’s connected to the election disinformation and people involved in January 6th stuff. It all seems to be part of the same political movement in opposition to public […]
