Bernie Moreno, the Republican candidate for #OHSen, said "It’s a little crazy by the way" that some women make abortion their main issue, "especially for women that are like past 50 — I’m thinking to myself, ‘I don’t think that’s an issue for you.'" @nbc4i nbc4i.com/news/your-loca…
@nbc4i Real Todd Akin/Sharron Angle/Richard Murdock hours. And the funny part is that Trump endorsed this guy IN THE REPUBLICAN PRIMARY after JD Vance wanted Trump to endorse Moreno. #OHSen

I am devastated. I am gutted by the loss of @stevesilberman. He changed my life. Without his work, I never would have come around to accepting myself. We met in person only once on a train to New York City but he became such an incredible presence. He was my friend. I loved him. Steve Silberman, an older white man with glasses, smiling with Eric, a younger Latino man.
My work doesn’t exist without @stevesilberman. I will forever be grateful to @ron_fournier for linking us up. I used to joke with my mom that he was like my big gay uncle. He was never afraid to keep me in check when I needed it or lift me up when I was in some bad spots.
@stevesilberman @ron_fournier I could say so many lovely things about @Stevesilberman. But chief among them: Once he wrote #Neurotribes, he made it a point to highlight #ActuallyAutistic writers and creators like myself @Slooterman and @NaturalistDara.

With Kamala Harris all but crowned the next Democratic nominee for president, I wrote a bit about Harris in my book and where she stands on disability rights and how it explains her approach to policy. Here's a thread 1/
harpercollins.com/products/were-…
Harris's approach to disability is astronomically different to Biden's approach to disability. Biden, a creature of the senate, came to understand it through his stutter, but more importantly, through the passage of the ADA when disability was still a bipartisan venture. 2/
Harris's experience differs. Despite the fact she hails from San Francisco, the spiritual home of disability rights in America, I didn't hear much about her building connections with the disability community. 3/

Biden’s decision today signifies a huge break from previous Democratic administrations: in the past, Democrats pushed for border security provisions in exchange for relief for migrants already here and creating legal pathways. Now, he’s just on enforcement independent.co.uk/news/world/ame…
Biden’s announcement also signifies a failure for migrant rights advocates: they hoped agreeing to border security provisions would get Republicans to move on relief. Obama deported scores of migrants in an effort to win goodwill from Republicans.
independent.co.uk/news/world/ame…
The goodwill never came. Republicans are still bitter about Reagan signing IRCA in 1986, which provided amnesty but they believe never provided the border security they wanted. So they waited it out.

Everyone rightly says Trump shows how easily Republicans roll over. But he shows they are also fairly cheap dates. Bernie and Warren got significant concessions from Biden on policy. What does Nikki Haley get for saying she'll vote for Trump?
Nikki Haley said "Trump would be smart to reach out to the millions of people who voted for me and continue to support me and not assume that they're just going to be with him." But she gave the Trump-curious Haley voter without any concessions.
Haley has significant policy differences from Trump. She accused Trump of busting the budget. She is a much bigger hawk on Ukraine and Israel. But Trump hasn't pivoted on any of these.

Biden tells Howard Stern "no man deserves one great love, let alone two" after he said "I lost my family."
Howard talks about the loss of Biden's family "I get the chills" when he's talking about it. "I can't even imagine that kind of loss."
Biden says about the loss of his wife and daughter "I had, I had my mother and my father and my best friend in the world is my sister, my younger sister, my brother Jimmy and Frankie, the whole family."

One story that fell under the radar this week but is super important: The Supreme Court preserved the Americans with Disabilities Act while also outlining how it will get the ADA in the future. Here's a Thread: 1/
A few months ago, disability rights advocates feared that the Court would gut the Americans with Disabilities Act. Deborah Laufer has filed hundreds lawsuits as a "tester" to determine if a hotel discloses how accessible it is on its website. 2/ nbcnews.com/politics/supre…
Businesses say this puts an undue burden on them when testers never intend to patronize a business. But hotels (and frankly many other businesses) don't comply with the ADA without being put on notice. msnbc.com/opinion/msnbc-…
