My party, my party, my party -

But folks! This is why I'm 'resting'.

My time is better spent on a Saturday with my Black Women's Gun and Survival Club than it is at a March. Like - it's in my blood to preserve food, hunt, preserve the meat, know how to defend myself from my government.

We did it from 1619 to 1965. We are survivors.

Harm reduction has already been done. I've no hope that America loves me back. So nope - I'm not engaging anymore outside of my Borough. Note - I'm the ONLY Black woman elected to office in my county in NJ.

The ONLY one. Let that sink in. Blue Jersey my ass.
