Before I went #nocontact w/ my horrible #mother Judy, the only part of this story she disputed was the age.
She claims I was 9/10 by the time this happened, & stipulates to the rest of the facts, which is such a #hilarious quibble 😆
I remember it, bc #AgeofReason = 7, & I was 7

WE are def living in the #AgeOfMonsters, despite America being borne from the #AgeOfReason. 🤦🏼♀️

💙If I know ANYTHING, I trust & know THAT much‼️
🇺🇸We just need to REMEMBER, who we ARE‼️

The Founding Fathers feared mob rule, corruption, and ignorance—the very things destroying America today. We traded reason for conspiracy theories and civic duty for tribalism. Time to rediscover our roots in logic and virtue.
