Trump is so obsessed with President Obama that he spent his ENTIRE four years undoing ALL of Obama’s work and implementing policies that were harmful to the Environment especially our air and water. The complete OPPOSITE of the Obama administration.

He has targeted minorities especially communities of brown descent. Going so far to lock children in cages. Separating families, allowing young girls to be molested in detention camps which were really “for profit prisons” that Obama had closed under his administration. However, Trump ordered Sessions to re-open them. Just in time since we had a “caravan” of immigrants heading this way. His words.

He loves to attack the rights of women. He is a self confessed man who assaults women and is STILL in the Oval. In 2020 this election is mainly about the SUPREME COURT! Two of the justices are in the 80s and RBG should be the personal hero of every child male or female. She should be a fucking Marvel Avenger! Tony Stark would lunch with RBG for sure.

In four years women have shared deeply personal stories about their lives due to attacks from his administration.
(pro-choice, abortion stories, stories of assault during the Kavanaugh hearings)

These four years have also brought out a surge of women in politics. We are angry and we have every right to be and it is just getting started because the future is female. I like to call it the ‘Trump effect.’ While we don’t hold that top seat, women are the ones getting bills thru and the job done.

These past four years have been hell. This is not the America I know. The one I was born into or the one I want to leave for my children. We were once a beacon of hope for other nations and within four year we have become the laughing stock  as well as an Embarrassment! Come November like Hamilton, we have ONE SHOT at returning to the America everyone knows and loves and looks up too. Unless we UNITE, & VOTE JOE BIDEN we are screwed. The Supreme Court will undo any progress we have made these past fifty years😢🤷🏽‍♀️

In case you have been living under a rock it clear by now the fake president is racist. They are currently trying to undo Roe vs Wade. Telling a women she doesn’t have control over her own body so him trying to undo rights from the “Civil Rights Era” doesn’t seem like a big stretch.🤷🏽‍♀️

For me this is personal. They continue to attack the innocent by trying to gut Obamacare’s pre-existing clause. We are talking thousands of special needs children, cancer patients young and old, people on dialysis that would lose the insurance and miss life saving treatments. During the Corona Virus Pandemic once New Jersey started showing positive cases Senator Booker asked Trump to open the Obamacare enrollment just one time so ppl with pre existing conditions could enroll and be cover if they did catch the virus. Trump said no. Like he can’t be bothered that people are dying. Families are being destroyed. children are losing a parent.

His response to this virus SHOULD BE IT. The open racism, straight lies & denials. In four years no accountability has been taken for several things. Whenever pressed on a difficult decision or choice he made it ALWAYS circle back to being Obama’s fault. I guess that’s in the New Hire Packet for all Trump hires. 🤷🏽‍♀️

Four years blaming Obama, trying to undo him. Trump makes his staff praise probably because Obama is still favored upon the people. Barack wasn’t a perfect president but he had three MAJOR things we are missing. He had Empathy. He is Sincere. He had compassion and showed it when he had to make that gut wrenching speech at Sandy Hook.

Trump is so obsessed with Obama it sure would be THE SWEETEST VICTORY to lose the election to Obama’s VP and Best Friend?

To have to look up and see Barack and Joe BACK IN THE OVAL (can you just think it?) That would drone Trump to the looney bin part of the Prison for him.

This upcoming election is life or death.

For so many more reasons.......but don’t get started......

It is also a call to action against whatever you are facing in your life.For some, it's medical issues, bullying, sexism, homophobia, etc. To remind you to keep fighting because you are NOT the only one fighting, or resisting. WE ALL ARE. Resist Shirts

Homeless

I read this and 😢😢😢 I’ve been saying this for 10 years and many don’t have the support to explain and help them complete the MOUNTAINS of paperwork insurance and the government sends you in order to get help. Thank God for my mother who completed all my paperwork and argues with caseworkers when they try to drop me almost every month. Paperwork is even more difficult when you have a TBI. 🙋🏽‍♀️Speaking from experience even the most simple form some days can seem overwhelming, if you don’t help, you will be on the street with no support or assistance.😢


Half of homeless people have experienced traumatic brain injuries., new UBC study suggests

Thoughts

I had so many ideas for my blog and my brand “Real life makes you an advocate” but the truth is that REAL LIFE IS HARD when you are the single mother to two beautiful daughters who have their own issues on top of dealing with having a brain tumor that is constantly attacking your body. I have so many ideas that I want to do. Honestly, I don’t have the energy, time, or mostly the FUNDS to follow through. Yes, I’m aware, I could do a kickstarter campaign or things like that. After 19 brain surgeries I am not very tech savvy and I’m low on patience. Time is something I have very little of and I don’t have time to figure out the ins and outs of something and how to make it work when I have short term memory issues and when I’m supposed to be healing and taking things easy following my latest health issues. It’s always something. 🤷🏽‍♀️I take two step forward and one back. I’m tired. I’ve been sick and fighting for over ten years and did it as a single parent with the help of my wonderful village but I need to take a step back from my brand and activist work so I can figure out with the new year approaching on how I can do this better and reach my goals especially since i need funds or investors to make this work. A wing and a prayer maybe? Who knows? Cuz I don’t! Talk to y’all soon! 💋

My Condition

First Thank you to everyone that left a sweet comment or note, said a prayer, or thought about me. I truly appreciate it more than I can express. Being transparent and sharing what I’m going through on this journey helps me deal with the depression and I’m glad to know that it helps other people. I firmly believe I’ve made it through 19 brain surgeries to tell my story and do exactly what I am doing. I honestly just struggle with the fact that THIS IS A LOT.

At times I feel like why wasn’t I the girl who had a tumor with zero complications and went back to her life two months later? Why did MY husband leave? I could go down the “why” rabbit hole forever.🤷🏽‍♀️ This is MY life. Yes, it’s hard AF but my Lord seems to think I can handle it cuz he keeps me BUSY! Part of my depression is having this illness that attacks your body all the time and I get no breaks. It feels like I am always at the doctors for some sort of complication. I have lost basically everything in the last ten years. Those who I consider friends are my family bc they have been there during the bad times when others have walked away. They are my village and they know who they are! The girls and I would be lost without our village.

I’m still sore from my procedure a few days ago. The doctors removed a large mass from my colon. I know now that it’s common for your body to produce masses in other areas of the body once you have a tumor. It’s pretty crazy because Jordan was born in 2001 and right after she was born I had a large ovarian cyst removed. I wasn’t sure if I was able to have more kids.which at the time I was ok with until I got married in 2007 and Jordan asked for a baby sister. Being in love and not wanting Jordan to be an only child, I went thru fertility procedure to get my miracle baby Aaliyah. 3 weeks after her delivery we find the large tumor, now ten years later I have a large mass removed 🤔🤔

Depression is real

BEING FULLY TRANSPARENT: I am tired. I am past tired. I was tired years ago. For TEN YEARS I’ve been fighting this tumor and the complications, battling the depression that comes with having your life turned upside down by an illness, having your husband walk out and leave you with a toddler while you are going through radiation, a divorce, and STILL manage to attempt to parent two future Queens. Right now I am on a liquid diet and NPO after midnight in prep for my hospital procedure tomorrow. I’m struggling honestly😩 I feel like I need a win. I’m tired of always being dizzy, off balance, or sick from complications. It sucks. BAD. Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers. Also pray for peace and strength for my mother Renee Petties Jones. She is my rock as my caregiver, which is NOT an easy job to someone who has a rare condition like mine. Plus she is a HUGE part in raising my Queens. Grandma Priscilla would be so proud😇. 

Also, Thank you to everyone in my village. Signing off for awhile to get my mind right but I will keep everyone posted. #mytruth #mytestimony #prayers 😘❤️🙏🏽

RIP

WHY CUMMINGS BEFORE TRUMP LORD? Even from his hospital bed he was sending out subpoenas to help put an end to the corruption of the Trump administration. 😢
