He has made a farce of the office of the presidency, and is bent on destroying everything that’s been accomplished over decades of work, especially…

I am joining the disability march because I feel strongly that though I cannot physically walk in the march, my heart and my spirit are moving me so that I am here with you today, my brothers and sisters. We are one family calling for universal healthcare for us all, universal human right for us…
