I really didn\u2019t want to write this article for fear someone would think I was referring to myself. I\u2019ve been through the mill, but I\u2019m talking about Black women in high places still catching hell. My work is all-volunteer these days, so what happens to me can go to the bottom of the list for a later day.<\/p>\n

The man who calls himself president has nothing to showcase what the Trump family has done to improve or protect America. He and his children are known for upsetting the apple cart. I can\u2019t think of a single Trump who served in the military or who is doing anything to protect our country from foreign enemies or enemies within.<\/p>\n

Dr. Mary L. Trump seems to be the only honest and caring person we know in her family. She\u2019s tried all along to warn us about her uncle and how he has treated his own family! Her uncle misuses those who\u2019ve served our nation. He and his family have taken gross amounts of money from any and everybody among the less fortunate. I know of nothing they give back to help them. They\u2019ve denigrated those who worked in the best interest of our nation \u2014 such as the late Sen. John McCain.<\/p>\n

Now he wants to erase our history of our ancestors who risked their lives to make America great \u2014 not great again because America has never been great for my people \u2014 except those who have chosen to take 30 pieces of silver from the enemy for their personal benefit. For everyone who has lowered themselves to do that, we have many who are fighting for us. And guess what! Trump is making life difficult for our real sheroes (and heroes). I now want to remind you of some of our sheroes who we must remember and support as they continue to fight for our rights.<\/p>\n

First, New York\u2019s Attorney General Letitia James has stood against the terrible things Trump says about her as she and her staff have secured convictions against Trump for numerous crimes.<\/p>\n

Second, former Baltimore State\u2019s Attorney Marilyn Mosby and several of her colleagues \u2014 Kim Foxx of Chicago, Kim Gardner of St. Louis and others. Ms. Mosby had her whole life turned upside down for doing her job convicting those who set up people with drugs and guns. After years of struggle, the most serious accusation was overturned. The perjury conviction should\u2019ve been \u2014 so don\u2019t believe it.<\/p>\n

Third, Fulton County, Georgia, District Attorney Fani Willis. Since when did the public care about who one may have a romantic interest in because the person works with them? Remember Sen. David Vitter of Louisiana?<\/p>\n

Fourth, Trump has tried to figure out how to fire Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson for standing up for the U.S. Constitution \u2014 as he, the criminal of 34 counts, runs all over the Constitution without penalty. Leave it to Justices Brown Jackson, Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan \u2014 they are not having it. They\u2019re working for justice for the people!<\/p>\n

Fifth, Louisiana Judge Tami Lee was on the court and punished for traveling miles the enemy thought she shouldn\u2019t travel!<\/p>\n

Sixth, now, we\u2019re dealing with New Orleans\u2019 Mayor LaToya Cantrell being accused of dating her security guard!<\/p>\n

Seventh, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass was doing a great job with her city before being invaded by many.<\/p>\n

Eighth, District of Columbia Mayor Muriel Bowser, whose city has a Black female police chief \u2014 Pam Bondi is currently trying to undercut their authority.<\/p>\n

Ninth, a few weeks ago, the president of the United States had nothing more to do except attack Beyonc\u00e9, Oprah and Honorable Kamala Harris!<\/p>\n

Tenth, Trump just decided wrongly to fire Fed Board Member Lisa Cook!<\/p>\n

There are also the unknown ones who may be suffering alone, and we just haven\u2019t heard about their cases! Stand by.<\/p>\n
