Ilhan Omar lies about democrats celebrating Charlie Kirk’s assassination

Our take: Ilhan Omar denied Democrats were celebrating the assassination of Charlie Kirk. After being asked multiple times if she was concerned about the rhetoric coming from the Democratic base after Kirk’s assassination, she finally responded, “I don’t think anybody is.”

Yeah—they are. We have seen hundreds of videos, podcasts, and articles celebrating the assassination. Hundreds of people have been fired by their employers after the employers were made aware of these statements.

You better get used to hearing President Vance. The American public is not going to back a group this far gone.

California, Oregon, Washington, and Hawaii issue their own vaccine guidance after spending years telling people to “trust the science”

Our take: California, Oregon, Washington, and Hawaii were some of the most aggressive states at shutting down any questioning of the CDC and other government health organizations during the height of the Covid craze. People were jailed, fired, and publicly persecuted as “grandma killers” and “right-wing lunatics.”

These states just issued their own vaccine guidance because they disagree with the recommendations of the CDC. There is a word for people that expect others to do one thing but refuse to follow those same instructions and guidelines. Here is the definition:

Hypocrite [hip-uh-krit]

noun

  1. a person who pretends to have virtues, moral or religious beliefs, principles, etc., that they do not actually possess, especially a person whose actions belie stated beliefs.

A woman killed a man who was checking his mail while she was texting and driving

Our take: An Alabama woman texting on her phone plowed into a 55-year-old man who was at the side of his road checking his mail. She then drove off without checking on the victim. She pleaded guilty to reckless manslaughter and was sentenced to 20 years in prison. She is eligible for parole after 3 years. Don’t text and drive, people. Put your phone down and pay attention.

Tip of the day for changing habits

 Why are old habits hard to break?

Sometimes, a change of habit comes painlessly, delivering fast results in a short amount of time.

Unfortunately, many habits feel impossible to change. After all, simple does not mean easy. Old habits are hard to break because they

  • are familiar (they’ve been executed so many times);

  • require less time and effort (we’re really good at them);

  • feel “safe” (they’re tried and trusted);

  • are tied up with beliefs about who we are

That’s why knowing how habits work, or even having the desire to form new habits, isn’t always enough to create change.
