No Smoothies for Trump Supporters

The first lie told by the Left this week involves two workers from a Smoothie King in Michigan who refused to serve a customer wearing a Trump hoodie. A video of the incident was posted by the Libs of TikTok, which shows exactly what transpired.

In the video, customer Erika Lindemyer responds to the employees. “We were just wanting a smoothie, and you literally looked at us, and I asked you if everything was ok, and you said, ‘We don’t feel comfortable serving you’ because of my husband’s hoodie. That is discrimination.”

One Smoothie King worker remarked, “Okay, well, have a great day.” Erika fired back, “That is illegal.” The other employee argued, “I said Trump discriminates (against) us.”

After several comments back and forth, one of the employees stated, “We have the right to refuse service,” before telling Erika and her husband to leave. “The door’s right there,” she emphasized.

The shocking video has since gone viral, causing significant backlash against the workers. After the widespread reactions, one of the Smoothie King employees posted a separate video where she stated that she might have “accidentally started a race war.” She added, “I am a minor, and she recorded me without my permission. The people in the comments are all white, and they’re all being hella racist, guys, please help me get this video taken down.”

To the employee’s disappointment, the video was not taken down. Instead, both workers were fired from Smoothie King for their discriminatory behavior. The company posted this message on X.

“As a brand, Smoothie King is committed to ensuring our stores are a place free of discrimination of any kind, where every guest and team member is treated with care and respect. Following an investigation into an incident involving a guest who was refused service at a franchised location in Michigan yesterday, the franchise owner has taken immediate action, and the two employees involved are no longer with the business. Both the franchise owner and Smoothie King corporate have reached out to the guest several times to apologize and will continue to follow up.”

The owner of the franchise where the incident took place will institute “mandatory retraining for all employees that outlines our guest experience standards.”

The Left wants the world to believe that Trump supporters and conservatives are not worthy of service because they practice discrimination, but the camera reveals their lies. In reality, the Left engages in discriminatory behavior, all the while showcasing their hypocrisy on a constant basis.

DC Mosque Hails Ayatollah Khamenei as a Martyr

The next lie told by the Left this week revolves around a mosque that honored Ayatollah Khamenei for being a “martyr.” The Manassas Mosque, located in the DC area, sponsored a time of remembrance for the slain tyrannical leader on March 1, 2026.

The Daily Wire reports, “The Manassas Mosque is a sponsor, alongside left-wing groups like CodePink and the D.C. chapter of Democratic Socialists of America, of a ‘Stop the war on Iran’ march on the White House planned for Monday night. On its Instagram page, the mosque calls Iran’s dictator–not America’s elected representatives–its leader, and demands to end US-Zionist aggression.” The Daily Wire took a photo of the Instagram post before it was deleted.

The mosque is located just 30 minutes from the Pentagon and is funded by the Alavi Foundation, an organization that has ties to the Iranian regime. Additionally, after the October 7, 2023, terror attacks against Israel, the mosque voiced its solidarity with Hamas, according to Influence Watch.

The Manassas Mosque has infiltrated the Left by getting involved in various social justice causes. Its Imam, Abolfazl Bahram Nahidian, claimed that Israel was behind the 9-11 attacks in 2001. Moreover, Abolfazl’s daughter-in-law, Atefeh Rokhvand, has participated in left-wing activism against Israel. Recently, Rokhvand screenshotted a tweet that said, “they just canonized Khamenei (sic). And they really have no idea what they’ve unleashed upon themselves. It is exactly in moments like this that resistance fighters are born.”

Congress members such as Rep. Andy Ogles (R-TN), Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX), and Rep. Randy Fine (R-FL) have responded to reports of the mosque’s terror ties by insisting that those who pledge their allegiance to Iran’s radical leaders should be deported.

Islam has formed an alliance with the Left in order to further its goal of destroying the United States from within. This is a sobering reality, but as more connections are exposed, many Americans are pushing back. Let’s pray that the bonds of Islam and liberalism are broken, and instead, Christianity rises to unprecedented levels.

Layer Upon Layer of Dysfunction

The next lie told by the Left this week involves a conservative member of the Utah Board of Education who is urging parents to withdraw their children from the state’s public school system.

Concerned Board Member Christina Boggess wrote a letter to parents, which cited strong concerns about “indoctrination and failed academics.” She also informed her supporters that she will not run for reelection because she no longer believes that the school system is doing its job.

In an X post, Boggess explained that the school system is filled with “layer upon layer of dysfunction,” and it’s much worse than parents realize. “Get your children out as quickly as possible,” she urged.

Boggess describes training programs for teachers, which she calls “alphabet soup.” They included DEI (diversity, equity, inclusion), CRT (critical race theory), and SEL (social emotional learning), to name a few. One example she cited was an “empathy” session, which explained how LGBT people “experience intimacy.” Other policies and programs were nothing more than a “full-on installation of Marxism,” which indoctrinated teachers and students with un-American, unbiblical principles.

Parents expressed concerns about “radical gender ideology” and “pornography libraries,” but the school system wasn’t interested in addressing them. Boggess warned that while most of the school board members identify as Republican, they are, in fact, “wolves in sheep’s clothing.” Though Boggess made her concerns known, at times they were dismissed and attributed to “white privilege.”

“We are no longer teaching content knowledge,” lamented Boggess. “The system is so stuck in these woke ideals; it is not teaching children to really think.”

Reforming the educational system is a monumental challenge. While Boggess maintains that the school system is completely dysfunctional, we must still continue to pray for transformation. With the power of Christ, anything is possible. For those who choose to stay in the system, it’s imperative that they challenge policies that are undermining American, biblical values. Children are a heritage to the Lord, and it’s our responsibility to make sure that they are educated properly.

Lord Jesus, we live in a world saturated with lies, but You are the truth, the way, and the life. Infuse our hearts and minds with discernment so we can tell the difference between fact and fiction.

These are just a few of the lies told by the Left this week. How are you praying?
