Lauren Hogg, a 14-year-old survivor of the Parkland shooting, reached out to the First Lady and asked her to tell her son-in-law to stop cyberbullying her and her family.


The young teen wrote, "You say that your mission as First Lady is to stop cyber bullying, well then, don't you think it would have been smart to have a convo with your step-son @DonaldJTrumpJr before he liked a post about a false conspiracy theory which in turn put a target on my back."



Trump Jr. "liked" two tweets that promoted a fake conspiracy theory about an ex FBI agent father of a Parkland school shooting survivor.

One of the tweets in question was posted by Graham Ledger, the host of OANN, a far-right cable outlet. "Could it be that this student is running cover for his dad who Works as an FBI agent at the Miami field office Which botched tracking down the Man behind the Valentine day massacre?" Ledger tweeted. "Just wondering. Just connecting some dots."



The tweet referred to Lauren's 17-year-old brother, David Hogg, alleging that his FBI father coached the Parkland survivor to speak out on anti-Trump rhetoric. Ledger apparently deleted the tweet, but someone saved a screen cap.



Trump Jr. "liked" a second tweet, which claimed, "Outspoken Trump-Hating School Shooting Survivor is Son of FBI Agent; MSM Helps Prop Up Incompetent Bureau."




Still reeling from the incident that claimed the lives of 17 people at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, the Hogg siblings are now being harassed on social media as a result of Trump Jr. bolstering a conspiracy theory targeting David Hogg.

Lauren told the Huffington Post she'd been inundated with messages of hate online and turned to Melania Trump for help.

I've been getting all these horrible messages from Nazis and white supremacists and I woke up this morning and remembered that Melania Trump's mission was to fight cyberbullying. That's what's happening to me: cyberbullying. I thought she could do something about Donald Trump Jr.

In a followup tweet, Lauren blamed the presidential family. "I'm 14 I should never have had to deal with any of this and even though I thought it couldn't get worse it has because of your family."



Twitter noticed Lauren's plea to Melania, and urged her and her brother to keep fighting the good fight.

AOC Saves The Day By Giving Bronx Middle School Group A Tour Of The Capitol Amid Shutdown

New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had people cheering after she stepped in to act as tour guide after a group of middle schoolers from the Bronx pulled up to the Capitol hours after the U.S. government officially shut down.

The federal government shut down early Wednesday after the White House and Congress failed to reach an agreement on federal spending. While Senate Democrats are in the minority, they hold enough seats to filibuster and are insisting that Republicans agree to extend federal subsidies for people insured under the Affordable Care Act.

GOP Lawmaker Sparks Outrage After Calling For Dem Rep. To Be Executed For Urging People To Protest Trump

On Wednesday, September 25, an Arizona MAGA Republican state Representative publicly called for the execution of Washington Democratic Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal because she urged anyone displeased with MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's job performance to exercise their First Amendment right to free speech and to protest.

Apparently, urging citizens to make their voices heard was a step too far for Arizona state GOP Representative John Gillette, who responded to a clip edited out of a longer video by right-wing account The Patriot Oasis (TPO). A quick scan through Gillette's X account media posts will reveal his political leanings.

Liberal TikToker Mortified After Discovering That Her Therapist Is Hardcore MAGA

There used to be a time where politics did not have to come into every room or be a part of every conversation. But in a world with President Trump and MAGA, it's not as simple as being Red, Blue, or Green anymore.

Now, the sociopolitical climate is dangerous for many people and still very stress-inducing for others. It's important to surround ourselves with people who make us feel safe and seen—and unfortunately, that might mean cutting out people who have "different beliefs" than we do.
