Trump this morning: “The FBI…blatantly used their power to get a cognitively impaired Democrat elected President — in two elections." (Two elections?)
Trump just now: “Last week, weirdo…Mark Zuckerberg came to the White House, kissed my ass.” (The dinner was in October 2019.)

More than 30 deaths have now been linked to Victoria’s triple-zero crisis. A report into the emergency call system has found it was under funded, and under staffed, while delivering the worst results in its history. 7NEWS.com.au #7NEWS

It was truly an honour and privilege to have been a part of the filming for The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power. Look out for me throughout the rest of the series making ‘The Stranger’ appear colossal!!

#TheRingsOfPower I thought the whole Elrond/Durin in Khazad-dum sequence was absolutely Tolkien level in the quality of writing and captured exactly so many nuances of the relationships both open and secret.

“Review bombing” is when a group of users post numerous negative reviews due to perceived cultural or political issues rather than actual quality. Perusing Rotten Tomatoes’ audience reviews for #TheRingsofPower, there are entries that meet the definition thr.cm/UYrqEiu

"Greens Political Party" why do people say this lmao
Quote Tweet
Replying to @iabanon
Thank you. I genuinely am amused and bemused tho by the bizarre reactions and extremist identity politics nonsense. I really am. It’s nuts 
It’s so weird that any attack on the populist Greens Political Party is met with such extremist outrage and sanctimonious ranting.

Keeping Morrison’s 2018 tax promise isn’t just a gift to high income earners, it’s a gift to the Liberals who’ve said they’ll campaign in Labor’s outer suburban seats rather than try to win back high-income seats lost to the teals & Greens #auspol

NEW: Last week, I joined 500 people at an anti-vaccine conference where they wondered what is next for the movement?
Although they didn't say it explicitly, their speeches made the goal clear: they're trying to build their own parallel Christian society

Before we do anything else, unemployed people need enough money to live, we need our unpaid work to be valued, and to stop being punished with “mutual” obligations.
The Jobs and Skills Summit is promising nothing to help us with these massive barriers to paid work. #BTPM

Hahaha I’m getting lots of messages that these are memes — and yeah they seem to be, agreed! But at the same time I don’t want to spend all day laughing at them and then later learn some of those accounts were pwn’d 😅. I’ll go with memes until I hear otherwise.

And more weird behavior around the same time. Like are these memes or is there an admin access issue and these accounts are pwn’d at the same time Aka 2020 Twitter Hack? Or maybe this started pwn’d and now it’s copycat memes? I need answers lol
