With President-Elect Donald Trump's inauguration around the corner, one topic I find most interesting is Trump's loud opinions on Twitter. His tweets cover all sorts of topics, events, and issues. To be honest, most of his tweets sound like they change according to his mood. He is known for his rude, blunt and unfiltered comments, and to some that is frightening. Every time he tweets, I can rest assured one of my liberal friends on Facebook has already posted a blog about it with the title,…

This evening I read a post by a fellow DBU classmate that talked about Mr. Obama's farewell speech and the major points he spoke on. One main point my classmate stated was that Mr. Obama stated he would continue to serve our country regardless of him being in the presidential seat.

On Sunday night thousands tuned in to the Golden Globes, one of the film industries biggest nights for congratulating the best of their best. However, one of the acclaimed actresses decided to use this night for a different reason: to bash our country's newest president elect, Donald Trump. While many would say that we as Americans have freedom of speech and can say whatever we want whenever we want, many were outraged by Streep using her congratulatory speech television time to undermine…

            Today I read an article about the threat of clowns or people dressed around the nation due to a trend mostly seen on social media outlets such as Twitter and Facebook. In response to these threats, I believe that these threats while they may seem harmless should be taken seriously, especially by our local authorities and that we should begin to crack down more of these types of threats. People in these communities affected by these threats should report these threats to their…
