Text overlay on a photo of the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin, comparing reactions to Trump’s election with the early days of Nazi Germany. The text warns that in Nazi Germany, even friends and relatives turned in those who refused to conform, and draws a parallel to modern deportations and harassment of citizens under Trump’s administration, concluding that past fears weren’t overreactions but warnings.

It’s a sad time to be an American.

Image highlighting a statement that claims Republicans ignore wrongful deportations of citizens because those citizens often vote Democratic, describing deportations as a form of voter suppression.

A meme with white text on a dark, blurry background featuring columns. The text reads: "Turns out 'protecting children' was just code for protecting pedophiles. Republicans aren't trying to reopen the government because Democrats finally have the votes to expose who's on the Epstein list."

A dark-themed dashboard titled "Total actions logged since Jan 2025 (1436)". It displays a table-like structure with "Total Actions Since Trump took office" showing a count of 1436. The subsequent columns categorize these actions: "Undermining Democratic Institutions & Rule of Law; Dismantling federal government" (590 actions, with a sub-tag "Undermining Democracy"), "Suppressing Dissent & Controlling Information" (346 actions, with a sub-tag "Suppressing Dissent"), "Dismantling Social Protections & Rights; Enrichment & Corruption" (406 actions, with a sub-tag "Civil Rights & Corruption"), "Attacking Science, Environment, Health, Arts & Education" (399 actions, with a sub-tag "Science & Academia"), and "Aggressive Foreign Policy & Global Destabilization; Nationalism" (416 actions, with a sub-tag "Foreign Policy"). Each category has a numerical count displayed in red.

It's gotten so bad that British academic researchers are tracking Trump's abuses of power and moves toward authoritarianism. www.trumpactiontracker.info

Gov. Bill Lee is inviting a lawsuit.

The facts: The TN Supreme Court previously ruled it UNCONSTITUTIONAL for TN’s GUV to deploy troops for law enforcement. Years later, a federal court did the same thing.

But sure. This Trump mission is A-OK! 😉 tennesseelookout.com/2025/10/03/t...

Did you know, fingerprint kits are available on Amazon? I'm sharing in case anyone needs to fingerprint the door of a COLD vehicle for later criminal prosecution. Document, document, document...

A silhouette of a person at sunset forms a heart shape with their hands in front of the glowing sun. Overlaid text reads: “If I see any Democrat whining about high energy prices and blaming AI instead of Trump and the fossil fuel industry kneecapping clean energy—the very clean energy that would’ve easily covered the data center demand—I swear I will personally drive to your house and take a steaming dump on your front porch. Love you, mean it!”

A meme featuring a protest scene and commentary. At the top, text reads: “The Obama administration deported over 3.16 million people. Biden’s passed 4.44 million. Not once did either need troops in the streets to do it. That’s all you need to know about what’s happening.” Below the text, a photo shows heavily armored police officers in riot gear violently restraining a person on the ground during a protest, with bystanders watching and filming. The image is credited to “People’s Unity Project.”

A meme showing a dramatic painting of Jesus flipping tables and driving out merchants from the temple with a whip. The text above and below the image reads: “I USED TO SUPPORT JESUS UNTIL HIS PROTESTS TURNED VIOLENT AND DESTROYED BUSINESSES.” The meme humorously critiques selective outrage over protests by referencing the biblical story of Jesus cleansing the temple.
