Pray for Tommy S., who lived for thirty years in a wheelchair and passed away this morning. He got married and adopted a child after his accident.

In 1993, Pennsylvania’s P&A filed a lawsuit that culminated in the closure of Western Center. On closure day, the state sequestered parents behind a police line, and shipped disabled residents to undisclosed locations. The P&A’s director called the state’s behavior “exemplary.”

She, thinking it was the gardener, saith to him: Sir, if thou hast taken him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away. Jesus saith to her: Mary.

"My daughter turns seven next month. I’ve long accepted that I may never hear her call me mom. I have grieved a million tiny deaths of the things I once assumed would be. And yet she is the most beautiful child I have ever laid eyes on." nytimes.com/2025/04/25/opi…

Elon would do the world and his audience on this website a great service if he made it clear that the drivers of federal spending are not unspecified "pork" but rather a distinct group of health care and retirement programs that are all extremely popular. x.com/elonmusk/statu…

The DOJ is reportedly investigating whether Illinois “unnecessarily institutionalizes” adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. For people in Illinois who rely on this form of care, the investigation threatens their homes, writes John Hirschauer.

The Arc, which advocates for people with disabilities, endorses New York's assisted suicide bill. In 1978, the group's Delaware chapter passed a resolution demanding that the federal government pay for the abortions of women carrying disabled children.

New York’s assisted-suicide bill would enshrine in law a mistaken view of autonomy and suggest that some forms of suffering render life worthless. city-journal.org/article/new-yo…

For my brother Ben’s birthday, I reached out to all of the major 4 professional sports teams and asked them to send a t-shirt as he has started a collection over the last few years. I was amazed at how many responded and what they sent. So I wanted to say thank you. THREAD:

America’s safety net for kids in psychiatric crisis is collapsing. My first reported feature for City Journal investigates how Paris Hilton’s high-profile crusade against the “troubled teen industry” is putting vulnerable kids at greater risk.

The Trump administration's executive order gives the Department of Justice a chance to correct decades of distortions of federal law, which have resulted in states shuttering facilities for people with serious mental illness and other disabilities. city-journal.org/article/olmste…

Please pray for my daughter, Paige. She's on the way to the ER with my husband and oldest daughter after my son dropped her on her head this afternoon. She had a concussion and has thrown up a few times since. We're hoping to rule out a brain bleed.

“Held accountable” Here’s an idea. How about we NOT destroy the reputation of every person who happens to make a mistake or be an a** on camera? A wild idea, I know.

Beautiful baby boy! I've mentioned on here, but haven't really announced it: My husband and I are expecting another son this winter. He has a disability; we believe it to be manageable. We love him dearly. The heaviness of the diagnosis (and the unknowns), the endless tests,
