Tomi Lahren puts all the blame on Democrats.

Why Tomi Lahren is a Hypocrite
Politico

While Tomi Lahren spends every "Final Thoughts" video ranting about how lazy, idiotic, and immoral all Democrats are, all I can focus on is the hypocrisy. It is possible to have civil conversations about politics, but Tomi Lahren spends the entirety of each video explaining why liberals are idiots for doing one thing, while she and other Republicans are doing exactly the same. Since I do not have all of the time in the world, I can only highlight a few of these hypocrisies, but trust me, you could find many more.

1. Tomi never misses an opportunity to refer to all Democrats as "snowflakes." In fact, she has an entire "Final Thoughts" commentary on what a snowflake is. I find it interesting that Lahren defines a "snowflake" as someone who gets easily offended or gets their feelings hurt, yet reserves this term for liberals only. Meanwhile, she is also ranting about how offensive it is that people are fighting for the rights of transgender people or kneeling during the national anthem. So don't worry, Republicans get offended too, but it just so happens that they coined the insult, "snowflake," first.

2. I watched Tomi Lahren's speech at Liberty University, and within the first five minutes she had used the term "Crooked Hillary" and bashed liberals. However, she then stated that "your faith, your political beliefs, and the way in which you see the world are important pieces of who you are. Don't hide them, don't sugarcoat them, and please for the love of God, don't change them to fit in or be accepted." That is very sound advice, except wildly hypocritical coming from Tomi Lahren. She makes her living explaining not just her own political beliefs, but bashing Democrats for being absolutely moronic. She is giving this speech to a room full of conservatives which is of course why she says not to change their beliefs, because they are the same as her own.

3. Tomi Lahren is a huge supporter of our current president, and is very open about that fact. She spends a lot of her time defending him and his decisions, and stating that it is disrespectful for Democrats to talk about him the way that many do. While she seems to feel very strongly about respecting our nation's president, she doesn't have any reservations about trashing former President Barack Obama. Sure, he's not our current president, but this isn't a new thing for Tomi. Obama has been a subject of her videos since her time on The Blaze. She also claims that Democrats and the "dishonest media" will never acknowledge all the GREAT things that President Trump has accomplished. However, Tomi and her fellow Fox reporters are unable to recognize any positive thing that President Obama did during his eight years in office.

So we all know that Democrats and Republicans do not agree, and that is perfectly acceptable. But Tomi Lahren and many of her Fox News co-workers want to pretend that they are holier than thou, acting as though they are victims under attack by all Democrats. Politics is brutal. But that brutality is certainly not one-sided.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
