From her backyard summer camp in Rockville, Maryland, Mom created the Special Olympics⁩ organization serving families & athletes in every state & more than 120 countries. Values, determination & vision. I rank her with any entrepreneur anywhere. Passed 16 years ago today. 🙏

Folks, we are allowing this horror to continue. It’s not going to stop unless we pass sensible gun laws and provide serious mental health care for high school and college students. Such a sad day.

A friend since the 1980s, he joined many ventures: uniforms for ⁦Special Olympics⁩ athletes, a collection for the ⁦(RED)⁩ announcement in 2006. His speech there about HIV/AIDS will not be forgotten. Nor his compassionate loyalty to his friends & family. Beauty. Armani

Thank God for the activists, pro bono lawyers who forced Veterans Affairs to build/rehab these units. They fought & continue to fight court orders to build more homes for #vets. Yet they give themselves credit? Give me a break! Litigation details & history, Vets Advocacy

I once asked Mom what had led her to start “Camp Shriver” for special athletes (a predecessor of Special Olympics). “Rage” she said. An unforgettable word! Mom’s work vindicates her sister’s life & has “made gentle” the lives of many families & their special children! Hooray!

#Redford’s films were smart, fun & moving. He exuded respect (an unusual quality for a movie star!). Respect for the material, his fellow actors & for the audience. He never seemed arrogant, or tired to be glamorous. His elegant sensibility & conscientious activism will last. Ty.

$800 million cash for #HIV medicines. From a small idea one day in 2006. & from the Founding partners. They joined when most thought the #AIDS pandemic was “too big” or “too far away”. Armani, Gap, American Express Converse (@nike) made the idea real. Gutsy! Values! (RED)

People criticize Gates. But who else gives $900 million to the poorest of the poor? In 100 years, will anyone believe that such sums went from a white American technologist to the poorest people in the world. Give him credit. Values!

Seriously, thank God for Nicholas Kristof & The New York Times. Folks, he’s seeing FACTS. Not opinions. Not left wing. Not right wing. Facts. Dead people. Dead kids. Musk & Rubio still say “no one has died”. Not true. Do not believe them. Please.

88 kids dead PER HOUR???? What if it’s “only”, say, 10 kids per hour? Our American values? Why applaud Musk for destroying USAID & “owning the libs” when extremely poor, defenseless kids are DYING? This is evil. It’s not America. ONE

Some progress! Congrats to the pro bono lawyers Public Counsel & InnerCityLawCenter #mungertolles & Laurence Tribe 🇺🇦 ⚖️ who filed, and WON, the lawsuits that forced Veterans Affairs to build these homes. #vets need more units & real amenities (coffee shop, barber shop, arts venues) to = “home”.
