Dear MAGA making fun of people with Down Syndrome. Maybe you should go out of your way to meet one? They have unconditional love and count on people around them to be kind and guide them through this life. This is my son James Tate and he will melt your heart. #T21 ❤️ Image
He gets into trouble like any other kid. Like finding the wipes and taking everyone out. Image
He loves to swim Image
He loves to chill Image
He likes to ride in fire trucks, like any other boy Image
He likes to play sports. Image
He likes to ride the tram at the Bronx zoo for his Birthday Image
Skeptical about getting too close to an Alpaca, but aren't we all? Image
He loves blowing kisses Image
And the Hair at 4 months, he was already styling. Image
He survived COVID just like you. Image
Got his first haircut, just like you. When us used to sit still. Image
He got his first puppy like so may other kids. Image
I hope this thread brings some good to the world. James learned to walk just like you. Because he had loving people around him to help. Lets stop the hate we don't need to hate for clicks& likes. Making fun of disabled people show YOUR flaws not theirs republicans. So please stop Image
His Great Grandfather served in the War like yours may have? ImageImage
I'm raising money for my 4-year-old son James with Down Syndrome to get to doctors, buy diapers (he will be in diapers till 7 or 8 ), wipes, medical supplies, and to explore the world. He needs 24/7 care and I am his caretaker. gofund.me/6a567e63

Sunday Thoughts continued.

The first ten amendments to the US Constitution (the Bill of Rights) were amendments that the States demanded in exchange for their support for the ratification of the Constitution in the late 1780s. 1/6 Image
The Second Amendment was demanded by the rich slave owners of the southern states. These slave owners were terrified of slave uprisings and they wanted local militias at the ready to quell any uprisings. 2/6
But the very same rich slave owners were distrustful of poor whites, so the word “well regulated militias” were part of the Second Amendment to make sure that poor white people couldn’t just form their own militias. 3/6

The Republican Party if you want to call it that has become the Christian-Nationalist movement. Apparently they’re not at all interested in any of their constituents wants and needs, jobs, wages, healthcare, education These republicans are truly indoctrinated 1/3 Image
by their religious beliefs, supporting the evangelicals and imposing all their backwards, insane, ignorant views on their platforms…going after women’s rights, LGBTQ, Voting rights, etc. The majority doesn’t care what religion you follow as long as it’s not shoved down 2/3
However, these religious zealots are totally undisciplined with regards to the separation of church and state. This…no matter how you slice it…is detrimental to our democracy, and it affects our society and our way of life. This is not freedom. 3/3

THIS IS JAMIE & SARAH. They've been through a lot the past few years on top of what the nation has endured. Indeed, New Year's Eve 2020 they lost a son whose mourning was cut short because the entire month of January Jamie was busy trying not to lose a country. 1/5 Image
A week after Tommy's suicide, his father and sister were hiding under a desk as the Capitol was attacked. One week after that, the House impeached Trump a second time and Jamie became lead House manager. The Senate trial went on for 18 days after Biden's inauguration, and 2/5
Jamie was as valiant as valiant gets in a lost cause.

Then almost two years to the day of his son's death, Jamie was diagnosed with diffuse large B cell lymphoma, and even as he was getting chemo he missed very little floor time where he was now the ranking Democrat on the 3/5

Republicans at this point are operating under a completely fictional view of the world. There is no information, no source, that you can show them which they'll understand& believe. They'll always reject well established math, science& history in favor of their imaginary reality.
They will reject audio and video evidence. They will reject confirmed news articles and scientific journals. They will reject their own party if anyone dares to break rank. They will reject the legal findings of judges, juries, and investigators. None of that matters to them.
The problem is that they don't want new information, because they think they already know everything. They want confirmation bias. It's a party that's been infected with narcissism.

MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT as a father of 3 kids I stepped on no Legos today.
I did feel guilty vacuuming up hair ties, I try to save them.
And the Candy wrappers after Halloween, the struggle was real.
