We regret to inform you Tomi Lahren is at it again.
(Although, in fairness, did she ever stop? No. The answer is no.)
Over the Thanksgiving holiday, the 25-year-old conservative pundit unleashed what might have been her worst tweet of all time: a poorly photoshopped image of Colin Kaepernick kneeling as troops storm the beach at Normandy during World War II.

There are many terrible pundits floating around the conservative blogosphere—from Alex Jones’ unfettered insanity to Ben Sharipo’s debate team nerdery—but none quite match Lahren’s levels of cruelty, confidence, and staunch her-way-or-the-highway attitude. And thanks to that, in her short career online, she has amassed some of the worst tweets of all time. But in 2017, with her MAGA man Donald Trump in office, she delivered a banner year for her terrible content. Whether in 140 or 280 character bursts, Lahren has committed some serious social offenses over the past 12 months.
January
Nothing encompasses Lahren’s white girl confidence and simultaneous constant feeling of victimization more than her feud with rapper Wale. When she was showed up in a song by the D.C. rapper, she was none too pleased and thought she could take a swing.
So if you’re gonna put someone in a song…diss ’em.. perhaps get their fricken name right next time @Wale
— Tomi Lahren (@TomiLahren) January 4, 2017
What Lahren missed was that… mispronouncing her name was the diss. That didn’t stop her from firing back, with the same insult Wale already used.
Ok Whale https://t.co/OlbnWgd437

Wale did not care. And Tomi’s tweets just got worse.
February
If you hate Tom Brady and The Patriots because of the Trump connection, you might be one of those “loving” & “tolerant” liberals.
— Tomi Lahren (@TomiLahren) February 4, 2017
Let’s be real. Literally everyone outside of the Boston metropolitan area hates Tom Brady and the Patriots. And that was before Trump was elected. Lahren, it should be noted, is from South Dakota and is a Dallas Cowboys fan. But after trampling all over one of America’s premier events, she went right after another.
Feel free to stay in Iran. I hear it’s nice there. Good terror training grounds. #Oscars

Foreign film translation: Iranian filmmakers don’t like new POTUS because they’re used to former POTUS kissing their behinds. #Oscars
— Tomi Lahren (@TomiLahren) February 27, 2017
Iranian filmmaker Asghar Farhadi boycotted this year’s Oscars to protest Trump’s Muslim ban. As was expected, his film The Salesman won Best Foreign Language Film. Lahren took the opportunity to sound off on the Iranian people generally, and insult Farhadi.
A brief Google search would have revealed that Farhadi is a critic of many aspects of Iranian culture. But, of course, that didn’t stop Lahren from painting an entire people with the same racist brush.
March
Only liberals could turn a day celebrating women into an excuse to skip work and complain instead #InternationalWomensDay #daywithoutwomen

April
Did you know that the opposite of apologizing is launching dozens of Tomahawk cruise missiles?
President Trump is sending a clear message: the apology tour is over. We fight when you rattle our cage. #syriaattack
— Tomi Lahren (@TomiLahren) April 7, 2017
Last spring, Lahren decided to twistedly conflate Trump’s attack on air bases in Syria in 2017 with Obama’s 2009 outreach trip to Muslim nations. Lahren cheered the offensive, saying that’s what happens “when you rattle our cage.” Obama began air strikes in Syria in 2014.
May
As summer approached, Lahren also heated up, taking serious offense to Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) characterization of Trump.
Maxine Waters: Trump is “a disgusting, poor excuse of a man” https://t.co/TWkYY9ZuQ4 pic.twitter.com/yNxz3XmHdO
— The Hill (@thehill) May 4, 2017
That was crass, but the only thing more immature was Lahren breaking out a schoolyard taunt (and we’re talking elementary school) to try and hit back.
Damn, I wonder what that makes you Maxine…. https://t.co/vJpeFLCrX2
— Tomi Lahren (@TomiLahren) May 4, 2017
In this tweet, Lahren plumbs to depths of her wit and comes up with something akin to “I know you are but what am I?” Then, twelve hours later, she attempted to offer a constitutional lesson to her fellow tweeters.
Nowhere in the Constitution does it say, taxpayers shall pay for other people’s healthcare. Just saying. #healthcare
— Tomi Lahren (@TomiLahren) May 4, 2017
Before she did that, she should have looked up “life expectancy colonial America.”
June
Lahren kicked off June the same way your grandmother did.
#Covfefe 🇺🇸 pic.twitter.com/Ba26D2e4Ob
— Tomi Lahren (@TomiLahren) June 1, 2017
By making a terrible “covfefe” tweet.
Then came one of her favorite acts online. Lahren never met a tragedy she didn’t like… to use to advance her political agenda.
Hey liberals, this is what we are fighting against while you fight weather. #londonbridge
— Tomi Lahren (@TomiLahren) June 4, 2017
In this tweet, Lahren argues that because liberals want to fight climate change, they actually are supporting terrorists. Roger that.
Meanwhile, she is so bad at Twitter beefs, she even gets owned by brands online. The day after she sounded off on the London attack, she complained about her air travel experience.
Most dysfunctional airline award goes to @AlaskaAir 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
— Tomi Lahren (@TomiLahren) June 5, 2017
Lahren attempted to get into it with Alaska Air and there were flashbacks to her conflict with Wale.
Hi Tami, sorry for any troubles. Can you DM some details on where you experience went south? -Ryan https://t.co/t4ooDR29zz
— Alaska Airlines (@AlaskaAir) June 5, 2017
The brilliant manager behind Alaska’s Twitter called her “Tami.” The Internet was pleased. And yes, Wale was very much amused.
July
Truly, how many groups of people can you offend in one tweet?
Pres Trump dedicated to putting radical Muslims in graves whereas Pres Obama was dedicated to putting men in the ladies room. #MAGA
— Tomi Lahren (@TomiLahren) July 26, 2017
A grotesque masterpiece. Put this in the MOMA.
August
But if you thought July couldn’t be any more confounding, check out this gem from August.
As I watch millennial men struggle to lift their bags into the overhead bin I am reminded how f’d we are if there’s a draft.
— Tomi Lahren (@TomiLahren) August 9, 2017
She just made this up, right? Unless the guy she’s mocking has a torn rotator cuff or something. But even better, when people accosted her for this absurdity, she couched.
First of all, take a joke. Second, you’re right and those who have joined the military voluntarily would not be drafted. Eric meet my point. https://t.co/to7Rdr4QOB
— Tomi Lahren (@TomiLahren) August 10, 2017
This whole thing is a joke.
October
As cuffing season dawned, we got to see Tomi’s idea of #relationshipgoals.
#RelationshipGoals pic.twitter.com/DCJgplqCfo
— Tomi Lahren (@TomiLahren) October 18, 2017
Now, we can’t unsee it. And that was just the beginning. October was a big month for your girl. Not only did she reveal herself to be a Vegas shooting truther:
Media focusing on guns. There’s something bigger here. I think there’s something more about Paddock and his gf that hasn’t been revealed.
— Tomi Lahren (@TomiLahren) October 3, 2017
She spoke out during the nascent #MeToo movement by comparing it to wearing a MAGA hat in the break room:
I wonder how many have experienced anti-Trump/anti-Conservative discrimination in the workplace. Don’t deal with that crap! Get vocal.
— Tomi Lahren (@TomiLahren) October 13, 2017
Before finally dressing as a “conservative” for Halloween (which consisted of a MAGA unitard, American flag cape, and a fanny pack?).
This, of course, came after her repeated criticism of NFL players for disrespecting the flag. So, naturally, those on the left who love a good laugh mocked her for wearing what looked like an American flag as part of her costume.
Lahren fired out at the “selectively patriotic Snowflakes” who were melting in the face of… her dumb outfit?

We’ve all screenshotted Yahoo! Answers to try and win an argument. It doesn’t mean you’ve actually won it.
November
As evidenced before, Lahren really knows how to address tragic circumstances with thoughtful compassion. Here’s what she tweeted shortly after a mass shooting at a Texas church.
If you think it’s wise to lecture Texans on gun laws, I’m guessing you haven’t spent much time in Texas.
— Tomi Lahren (@TomiLahren) November 6, 2017
She was quickly derided by Texans, who were quick to point out that she grew up in Rapid City, South Dakota and went to college in Las Vegas. Neither of those places are in Texas.
Lahren also currently resides in California.
But before we venture into the unknown that is this December, let’s take one last look at her most recent missive.
Food for thought. pic.twitter.com/2ita0blH0O
— Tomi Lahren (@TomiLahren) November 23, 2017
The tweet contains multitudes. Its awfulness, like a prism, can be reflected and viewed in thousands of unique ways. Some examples of why this tweet is terrible include, but are in NO WAY limited to: many Black veterans share Kaepernick’s views, the NFL protests are not about the U.S. military, Kaepernick is a humanitarian, the tweet was sent on Thanksgiving, manipulating images of soldiers marching to their death is disrespectful, and the caption “Food for thought” makes no sense in the context of the picture.
Cheers, Tomi. You are 2017’s worst tweeter.
