Welcome to the first weekly installment of the Tuesday Top Three – A blog post where I rant about the top items in the news this past week. This week, there’s been no shortage of news that makes me want to gag. I hope you enjoy – here goes:

1. TV Newscaster and grown-ass adult, Laura Ingraham, mocks a youth survivor of a mass school shooting.

I’m not even sure what else to say about this. I am baffled by the childish bullying and mockery of professional adults toward these Parkland kids. From Fox host Ingraham to C-list celebrities like Frank Stallone and F-list musicians like Ted Nugent, there has been a blizzard of hateful social media comments thrown at the victims of the February mass shooting. The only reason I can see for this is that these people are afraid of teenagers who are changing the national conversation on gun control. Luckily, David Hogg and his classmates seem wholly unfazed.

Ingraham apologized after losing dozens of advertisers, but Hogg wasn’t having it, calling the apology just an “effort just to save your advertisers,” He added, “I’m glad to see corporate America standing with me and the other students of Parkland and everybody else. Because when we work together, we can accomplish anything.”

These people should be scared of these kids. Because they’ve done more in six weeks than the entire U.S. adult population has been able to do on this issue in decades. Hogg and his classmates have become household names. Who the hell is Frank Stallone anyway?

2. C is for Corruption.

It’s no surprise that the Trump administration is infested with unethical behavior. Ben Carson spent $30,000 on a dining room table! $30,000! On a dining room table FOR HIS OFFICE. There are so many things wrong with that statement. And this is just one of the hundreds of examples of corruption we’ve seen since this administration came into power… I mean, office.

We can’t forget about certain private business deals during official White House business by someone I won’t name (rhymes with Gared Mushner), and the list goes on and on. New York Magazine published an article this week summarizing ALL of the corruption that we know about so far, and it’s a looonnnggg read.

We must all read it – bookmark it – and keep coming back to it despite the myriad distractions that Trump has and will continue to throw at us. Because in the end, the corruption is costing us everyday Americans money, healthcare, and ideals crucial to our democracy.

3. Trump is a Twittiot.

I saw that on a T-Shirt once and it’s brilliant and so true. In the past week, President Trump tweeted two particularly stupid things. First, he decided to attack Amazon for utilizing the U.S. Post Office to deliver packages. There are more, but here is the most recent in the monologue:

I am right about Amazon costing the United States Post Office massive amounts of money for being their Delivery Boy. Amazon should pay these costs (plus) and not have them bourne by the American Taxpayer. Many billions of dollars. P.O. leaders don’t have a clue (or do they?)! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 3, 2018

The most hypocritical thing about his ranting about Amazon wasting taxpayer dollars is that Trump pushed for and approved a bill that gave massive tax cuts to companies like Amazon, who will save upwards of $2 billion dollars per year as a result. I realize I’m not a tax expert, but I’m thinking maybe it’s not the post office that’s screwing over taxpayers here.

The second stupid thing Trump tweeted about this week involved immigration:

These big flows of people are all trying to take advantage of DACA. They want in on the act! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 1, 2018

This one shows how little Trump actually knows about the immigration issue and these programs, which is both infuriating and somewhat terrifying. DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) is a program that allows children of illegal immigrants to stay in the U.S., work, and go to school openly. In order to participate in the DACA program, these “dreamers” as they are nicknamed, must have resided exclusively in the U.S. since June 15, 2007. So “big flows of people” are not, in fact, coming to our country to take advantage of DACA. If Trump would have taken the time to read anything about this program (or have someone read it to him), he might have known this. A couple of other interesting things to note about people eligible for DACA are that they must:

Be currently enrolled in school, have graduated high school or obtained a general development certificate (GED), or be an honorably discharged veteran

Have not been convicted of a felony or multiple or serious misdemeanors and not pose a threat to national security or public safety

So the next time you see someone ranting on social media about wagon loads of bad ombres climbing our non-existent border wall to destroy our country, remember that the one doing the accusing is often the culprit.
