Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) officially accepted former President Donald Trump’s nomination to be his vice presidential running mate on Wednesday during his speech at the Republican National Convention. “So, tonight, I stand here humbled, and I am overwhelmed with gratitude to say I officially accept your nomination to be Vice President of the United States,” Vance told a raucous crowd. Vance shared his story of growing up in Middletown, Ohio, where “people spoke their minds, built with their hands, and loved their God, family, community, and country with their whole hearts.” “But it was also a place that had been cast aside and forgotten by America’s ruling class in Washington,” he said. “When I was in the fourth grade, a career politician by the name of Joe Biden supported NAFTA, a bad trade deal that sent countless good American manufacturing jobs to Mexico.” “When I was a sophomore in high school, a career politician by the name of Joe Biden gave China a sweetheart trade deal that destroyed even more good middle class jobs,” he continued. “And when I was a senior in high school, Joe Biden supported the disastrous invasion of Iraq. And at each step of the way, in small towns like mine in Ohio or next door in Pennsylvania or in Michigan and other states across our country, jobs were sent overseas, and children were sent to war.” Vance said that “Democrats flooded the country with illegal immigrants” which forced U.S. citizens to have to compete for jobs with people who should not be in the U.S. “Joe Biden’s inflation crisis is really an affordability crisis,” he added. “Many of the people that I grew up with can’t afford to pay more for groceries, more for gas, more for rent, and that’s exactly what Joe Biden’s economy has given them. So, prices soared, and dreams were shattered. And China and the cartels sent fentanyl across the border, adding addiction to the heartache.” WATCH: JD VANCE: “I officially accept your nomination to be vice President of the United States of America.” pic.twitter.com/f8Y9vYRdz5 — Breaking911 (@Breaking911) July 18, 2024

When this toddler wouldn’t stop taking her pigtails out during car rides, her mom came up with the perfect solution—the “cone of shame.” Shaylee Gardener posted a video of her daughter, Indy, wearing the cone of shame while sitting in her car seat over the course of a few days. In each shot, the little girl laughs and smiles while she dons the contraption that’s typically used to stop dogs from licking wounds. @thatshaygirl We give her plenty of snacks, don’t worry! ♬ Spongebob Closing Theme Song Music – Ocean Floor Orchestra Over the video, Shaylee, captioned, “POV: You always take your hair out in the car, so now you have to wear the cone of shame.” Mom Said She Spent Too Many Days “Scrambling” To Fix Her Toddler’s Hair After two weeks on TikTok, the adorable viral post has already earned 1 million views, and people can’t get over how happy and adorable Indy looks in the cone of shame. “Anything longer than a five-minute drive, I can count on her taking her cute hairstyle out,” Shaylee told Newsweek. “This can be challenging when you’re a mom who’s rushing to get somewhere and then you open the car door to find your baby has taken her hair out and now it’s a mess.” The busy mom said she came up with the idea after too many days of “scrambling” to fix her toddler’s hair when they were “already late.” “I came up with this idea one day as I was like, ‘Ugh, she took her hair out again,'” she continued. “I told my husband I had a funny video idea: I’m going to buy a cone of shame and put it on my daughter so that she would stop taking out her hair.” Shaylee admitted that the “whole thing” was “satire.” But, she thinks her idea is golden. “My daughter does not actually wear a cone,” she noted. “But it was so funny in my opinion.” You can find the source of this story’s featured image here.

Three important things to remember when Jesus appears to be sleeping.

Do you look forward to heaven? If I am being honest, my heart can be so focused on the now and building my “earthly kingdom” that I often miss the joy of focusing my thoughts and heart on eternal joys.
