This is one of my very favorite photos of me and my Momma.
She joined the angels today and will be greatly missed by all those who knew her and loved her. RIP sweet Momma. 💖

I’m an American of Haitian descent and my grandfather was killed by the dictator, Papa Doc. How do we stop the rhetoric and hold people like JV Vance accountable if anyone in Springfield gets hurt or is killed? 🫤

Bless you Cecilia for keeping your cool and composure. That exchange was awful and Trump’s a bully acting out. Great job keeping your focus!
Trump on New Zealand Prime Minister: “This lady caused a lot of upset in her country."
Then, he repeated his comment.
In return, she shot back: "You know, no one marched when I was elected."

New Zealand has eliminated transmission of the coronavirus and will lift all containment measures except for border curbs, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern says, adding that she "did a little dance" upon hearing that the country had no active cases.
Saturday evening funny 😁
(I almost didn’t post a funny today, then I did the math on this one and the coincidence that I’m roughly 636 months too, was too much... it was a sign. We all need to laugh even when we want to cry 😢 😂)

Just because 30+ Dems voted to impeach Clinton doesn’t make your case Kenneth Starr. It just means those Dems put Country over Party and no Republicans had the courage to do the same when voting to impeach tRump.

As a American of Haitian descent, it’s been a very emotional and triggering week. As I’ve said, and

said even more eloquently, they came to America just like so many others to live the American dream.

Abbott and DeSantis claiming to be pro-life yet banning mask mandates is not balancing a paradox of leadership, it’s first-level hypocrisy. For the life of millions, they need to go!

If that’s not the epitome of an ‘owner’ or trust fund child talking, I don’t know what is. Also, how many days has his FIL been golfing while our economy and pandemic are ravaging the country?! 😡
Even though the days are running together, I still want to remember that this evening would have been Senior Prom for my kiddo. She’s handling it all ok for now and there’ll be a BIG party thrown with her & her friends as soon as we can. 💃

A couple of days ago, my daughter's school was on lockdown because apparently a teenager brought a gun to school. I'm still numb from the fact. 😑 We need more leaders like

who take action on gun control to protect our children. Thoughts and prayers aren't working.

It really sucks all around… I’m not a huge golf person, however the ripple effects will affect all of us. What other sports will be next after soccer and golf?

I totally agree AND it’s hypocritical to talk about the sanctity of life and then support people who don’t want to give adequate healthcare or help those in need and forget about the over 220,000 dead from incompetence 🤬

Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin says he won't vote to eliminate or weaken the filibuster because it fosters bipartisanship.
"The filibuster isn't helping create places where you can reach common sense consensus," says Matthew Dowd. "It's creating the division in this country."
