So proud to work with incredible leaders like Kathryn to ensure people with developmental disabilities and their families have the support they need to succeed and thrive!

I saw somewhere it’s “National Cat Lady Day”. I am pretty obsessed with our sweeties. D jumps up to give me snuggles and sometimes wakes me up for pets. Baby kitty greets me each morning and lays with me when I read. They bring so much love to our house.

This would not only be an amazing moment for social justice and transformation, but one of healing for so many of us. I wish I could believe it would ever happen.

“When we talk about dismantling patriarchy, a big component is making the world safer. The majority of violent crimes are committed by men…When a man says, ‘not all men’ what he wants you to believe is he’s not one of those kinds of men. But what’s he doing to stop those men?” @feministajones.com

It Has Begun. An ICE Agent is Finally Being Charged. Things are changing. It's not a murder charge but it's some damn important progress.

The first of what should be many to come!

Trump Yanks Millions From Catholic Charities Amid Pope Feud The organization has been helping unaccompanied migrant children for decades.

What a mean and nasty little man. Pathetically behaving like the school boy bully that he is

No more “not all men”. If you’re not actively speaking out AND doing something, then you are part of the problem. You are allowing the women in your life to live in fear and too many of us to try to heal from trauma while seeing men get away with it. DO SOMETHING!!!! Please.

Survivors are being broken all over against and mothers are terrified for our daughters and I don’t see men in my life talking about it. Share an article & express how upset you are. Call & tell the men in your life to call to demand that Congress oust EVERY sexual predator from our government.

Women are angry, scared, sad and traumatized first by the Epstein Files and the fact that there have been ZERO ARRESTS and more proof that the president is a violent rapist and now the fact that millions of men were engaged in a “rape academy”. And who do I see talking about any of this? Women.

HOW EMBARASSING! Pete Hegseth quoted a fake Bible verse from Pulp Fiction during a Pentagon sermon. 🤣🤣

BREAKING: Senate Republicans blocked my War Powers Resolution that would have ended Trump's unnecessary, unjustified war against Iran.

These cowards have had four chances to stop this chaos in the Middle East.

And they put Trump's ego before America.

Every damn time.

Happy 'Paying A Huge Portion of Your Income For Abysmal Healthcare, Lousy Wages, Underfunded Schools, A Wasteful War, and a Rapist Leader Day.'

Time to end this regime...

HEADING TO GET GROCERIES THIS WEEK? Buy a purple reusable community bag at ANY Giant Food location and $1 will be donated to @qualitytrust.bsky.social to support people with developmental disabilities. It is a simple, but powerful way to make a difference!

I’m hard at work on this beautiful day, but I can’t say the same for these two. 🤣 😻

Today, Pamela Jo Bondi, our most recent head of the Department of Justice, is blithely ignoring a valid, legal subpoena requiring her to testify before Congress.

We are not a nation of laws. We are a nation of some people can get away with anything.

Had to turn off Meet the Press. Instead I’ll be watching the livestream of the Big Bear eagles’ nest. Little buggers are already starting to grow! #Nature

BURN IT ALL DOWN.

Warehouses of corporations exploiting their workers.

Property of every billionaire pedophile.

The whole system built to maintain hoard power and cause harm!

BURN IT DOWN, so we can build something new. Ideally the damn matriarchy. You had your turn, boys and you f*cked up.

Khanna on Fox News Sunday: "Our toughest presidents -- Reagan, even Richard Nixon -- never threatened to blow up other people. We never threatened to blow up the Vietnamese people or the Russia people. It's just not who we are as Americans."

If Melania *really* thought people were lying about her relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, she would have sued them for defamation to clear her name under oath, not deliver a lame speech full of lies for television.”

I like Presidents who DON'T tweet.

ICE IS DETAINING HUMAN BEINGS IN INHUMANE CONDITIONS. REPORTS OF PEOPLE BEING SHOT, STRIPPED AND NEGLECTED ARE OUTRAGEOUS. IMMIGRANT RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS, AND WE DEMAND ACCOUNTABILITY. NO ONE SHOULD BE TREATED LIKE THIS. STAND UP, SPEAK OUT AND DEFEND DIGNITY. ICE AND RIGHTS.

Living wages prevent factory fires. Pass it on.

The United States is destroying itself | Rebecca Solnit The daily news can’t adequately convey the administration’s sabotaging of our government, economy, alliances and environment

The United States is being murdered, and it’s an inside job. Every department, every branch, every bureau and function of the federal government is being fatally corrupted or altogether dismantled or disabled. All this is common knowledge...

For anyone who thinks I want Trump, the sexual predator president prosecuted because he’s a Republican, let’s do the same for Democratic politician, Eric Swalwell who committed sexual assault & EVERYONE in the Epstein files regardless of party. I believe survivors. I want to believe in justice.

It’s been an extra sweet Caturday after our return from our trip! Little boy slept with his head on me & has been begging for belly rubs all day. Baby girl slept at my feet & has been my shadow following me everywhere. Our cat sitter took great care of them, but they missed us & we missed them.

For families traveling, please know that Zoom Car rental adds on all kinds of extra charges and requirements without notifying you. You will get there and deal with a bait and switch while your kiddos wait and the hours go by.

Do NOT rent from them!

Happy sunny Caturday! Me and the kitties have been loving the weather. It’s spring in Maryland, so temps have been up & down, but lots of time on the porch for the cats and me. It’s a great place for calls and work.Today was especially lovely and I’ve barely seen them. They’re in their happy place.

I am especially thankful to have a really fantastic partner in crime in Julia Cohen. Onwards together to ensure that QT can continue to be a force for change in the lives of people with developmental disabilities and their families!
