I've been off Twitter a few days and I want to share why. My youngest son in his extreme grief over losing my daughter fell into addiction. He nearly died on Saturday from illicit fentanyl. I refuse to bury two children to this we HAVE to stop this illicit fentanyl NOW!
2) Zack had no intention of using fentanyl, he relapsed for the first time in over 90 days & intended to use meth. The illicit fentanyl was narcan resistant and he spent the entire weekend in ICU on a narcan drip to keep him alive.
3) I can't ever explain the toll these drugs have taken on my family. Our lives are forever changed because of 1 counterfeit pill given to my daughter which claimed her life. Every day families all over this nation are living with the same stress I do waiting for that phone call
4) I can't explain the self hate my son has for himself that he is so driven by the mental and physical need for these drugs that makes him seek them out when he doesn't want them but can't help himself. I can't explain the fear and anxiety that rules our lives.
5) I hate the people who making these poisons killing our children, I hate that our gov't still hasn't effectively stopped them and that they are destroying our nation and our families from the inside out unabated. I hate that it's not national news.
6) Most of all I hate the drugs that have run through my family like a bulldozer and my inability to save my children from them. This crisis MUST become the most important issue of our nation as millions of families continue to suffer in silence. Enough is enough!

@CNN @thedailybeast @WaPo While you and others in the media are gloating in ink about the removal of Mary Ann Mendoza's speech last night I would like to remind you of the over 800,000 grieving families across this nation whom you chose to have cancelled last night with her.
2) While Mary Ann did make a mistake in retweeting that article attached to a lengthy thread that she didn't open and fully read, intent means everything and there was no intent to be antisemitic, it was in every form an honest mistake.
3) I've known Mary Ann for 3 years, she was the first person to reach down into the pit of despair that surrounded me after my daughter's tragic death and lifted me up and gave me hope we could effect positive change and save other family's from our tragedies.

Socialism in Theory But Not in Practice

As New Yorkers are standing in 1/4 mile lines for groceries there is little effort by the wealthy celebrities or liberal politicians to offer relief. For them socialism isn't about sharing their money, it's about taking YOURS.
2) We have a living breathing testimony to democrat policies at work in NYC. As it's businesses remained closed, their debt grows out of control and the Mayor wastes tax payer dollars painting Black Lives Matter on roadways it's people are starving and losing everything.
3) Not ONE wealthy Trump hating celebrity has stepped up to give their money to help New Yorker's. Not ONE socialist politician has made any effort to provide relief to the people of NYC suffering. Instead they offer platitudes & anti-Trump rhetoric but that doesn't feed families

Excellent point made by Charlie Kirk The left has brought politics into EVERYTHING. This means WE ALL have to be 24/7 activists and not support it. This means pay attention to where you shop, what you buy, who makes it and what you watch and DO NOT support them.
2) Being an activist isn't easy, sometimes it's inconvenient other times its darn hard. BUT we have too much to lose so when you feel tired pull yourselves up by the bootstraps & drive the extra mile to the store down the road. We can't ignore their behavior or accept in silence.
3) We don't have to act as they have to make our point. But we also should NOT stand by & let them get away with what they are doing in silence. If we don't speak up now this will be our normal all the time. WE decide what we want not the media, corporations or bullying liberals!

Dear Democrats,

While you were "resisting" border wall construction denying my family's safety, the Sinaloa cartel moved into my state.
2) They set up their drug operations in earnest, terrorize the people who live here and they have blanketed our communities with brutal violence, shootings & deadly poisons killing our children, protected & even emboldened by your sanctuary policies. They killed my only daughter.
3) While you are "resisting" mothers are walking into their children's bedrooms and finding them dead from overdoses.

While you are "resisting" children are unable to wake up their parents unaware that they are dead from the cartel drugs

If you are a Christian voting democrat, just remember that on Judgement day you will be standing before God and you will have to answer to Him on why you supported those who stood in direct opposition of His Word and murdered His creations calling it "healthcare".
2) Abortion is an incredibly horrific choice in a world where birth control is available everywhere and should be reserved to only the most extreme cases of rape, incest or health endangerment of the mother. Abortion solely for planned parenting should not be an option, EVER.
3) I have a serious spiritual struggle with the practice even in cases of rape, incest or health endangerment, which is why I think that those cases should be left up to the individual and then they can answer for their choices to God Himself when the time comes.
