My Issues With Tomi Lahren
iheart

Many may know Tomi Lahren from her Final Thoughts aired on the Blaze TV. Everyday she posts her Final Thoughts videos on Facebook. On her Final Thoughts she discusses certain topics regarding politics and other things that are going on the world.

Since she is a conservative, a lot of attacks are against President Obama and Hillary Clinton. Even though her Final Thoughts segment is what she feels about certain things, a lot of the things she presents are not factual. As a journalist, when presenting facts, she is supposed to be knowledgeable. Instead, she twists facts with her opinion. For example, on her attack on Black Lives Matter, she claimed that they are the new KKK. How are Black Lives Matter the new KKK when they are raising awareness about the injustices happening to the people of color? The KKK are strictly only white people and Black Lives Matter have all races within the organization. Never has the Black Lives Matter movement lynched, assaulted, spit on, rape, and did other horrific acts to white people just because they are white.

When people speak up about the injustices that are happening towards the people of color, she claims that they are race baiting, causing division, and playing the victim card. It is people like her are blind to the problems and instead of helping the cause of trying to get things better she criticizes those who oppose the establishment.

When she talked about racism during the Civil War, she mentioned that her ancestors fought for the freedom of black slaves, and it was white, southern democrats who were the ones who fought to keep slavery. While she is right about the democrats fighting to keep slavery, it seems she fails to understand is that the Republican Party during slavery is not the Republican Party now. Members of both parties switched over, but clearly she does not know that. How does she know that her ancestors fought for the North?

The last person I can remember who disagreed with her who came on her show was Charlamagne the God, and after that the people she brings on the show agree with her so she can further her agenda; thus not having compelling debates of the things she says. When she talks about Hillary Clinton, she makes it seem like Donald Trump is not a liar and a saint. The most disrespectful thing she has done is calling President Obama Barry. You do not have to like him, but at least respect him since he is the President. She also has the nerve to say Colin Kaepernick is disrespecting the country, but she is disrespecting the country by disrespecting the commander in chief. My main issue is the fact that she talks about trying to unite the country, but she tears down the ones who try to bring attention and change to problems that this country is facing.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
