Fired up after Person County’s town hall last night. Republican lawmakers won’t show up because they can’t answer for Trump’s chaos. Let’s keep the pressure up.

The image is digitally created for comedic effect. Bold white text at the bottom reads “McDONALD ISLANDS,” humorously referencing the remote, uninhabited Australian territory in the southern Indian Ocean. The militarized penguins parody a defensive outpost, adding to the absurdity of the meme AND a moronic pseudo-president trying to levy tariffs against unoccupied land.
Okay, I have now created my absolute first original? meme.
This is what this administration has brought me to. Shame.

Defending their trade empire: the proud citizens of McDonald Islands brace for tariffs.

A screenshot of a post on X by user Suzie Rizzo (@SUZIERIZZO1 ). The post includes a text graphic with an orange background and black text that reads: "WHEN did America become a place where people take joy in suffering? Celebrating job losses, cheering immigrant arrests, ignoring terrified schoolchildren, and applauding when neighbors lose public assistance—what happened to basic human decency?" Above the graphic, Suzie Rizzo's comment reads: "Anyone want to answer this??? "
This is the result of decades of civic poisoning by Fox News and right-wing echo chambers and channels.

In March 2024, on most days, Bluesky hosts more posts linked to research published in 2025 than X.
