babies, were SUCKED UP into the DeVos adoption organization.

To this day, I still think of those 2 little boys, 10 and 11 months old, that were dropped off in Grand Rapids in the middle of the night. They were scooped up and placed in “ good Christian homes”.

Never to be seen again.

the past 4 years. Her name needs to be disgraced in years to come for the tremendous harm she has caused to America's children, especially the children of struggling families and minorities.

Cha! I am so sad at the horrendous spectacle at the WH yesterday . Much as i am so relieved & grateful to our Black and Brown brothers & sisters in GA for achieving an amazing feat against all odds in giving us 2 new Dem senators, what transpired yesterday aided & abetted by the seditious GOP members of Congress is horrifying. They must be held accountable & expelled from Congress.

I was wondering how the police officer and the 3 other trump fans died besides the one who was shot by the police officer.

So I found these in-depth articles on how they all perished.. Tragic!

If you're interested.. I looked it up for my sister in Asheville, NC, too.. we were talking on the phone about everything & she was wondering who the others were who perished.

Yes, they have to be held accountable to the full extent of the law.. This is All on trump & his gang of fascist treasonous killers!
