Twitter is having a field day with former President Donald Trump's recent—and very public—demonstration of that one-of-a-kind absence of logic we all grew accustomed to for four straight years.

Specifically, Trump attempted to call out media companies for "censoring" his speech.


But that argument grew a little shaky when people paused to acknowledge Trump published all those claims in an online Wall Street Journal opinion piece.

The digital edition of theWall Street Journal averages over 2 million daily readers.

In the Op-Ed, Trump expounded on his recent decision to sue "Big Tech" companies like Facebook and Twitter for banning him from the site following the January 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.

In an attempt to gloss over the fact he repeatedly lied about election fraud in the presidential election he overwhelmingly lost to President Joe Biden, Trump engaged in some pearl-clutching over his ban from the platforms.

And, of course, he sprinkled in a little paranoia.

"Perhaps most egregious, in the weeks after the election, Big Tech blocked the social-media accounts of the sitting president. If they can do it to me, they can do it to you—and believe me, they are."
Twitter was having absolutely none of it. They gladly called out the absurdity of crying about censorship while on a major media platform.




So, whether people are intrigued, horrified, entertained, or furious, it's official—Donald Trump is back in the news.

Quite literally, in fact.

He just wrote some news shared globally by a newspaper.

If that's his definition of censorship...

CNN Just Used A Hilarious Poll To Show Just How Unpopular Trump's Ballroom Is—And We're Cackling

After President Donald Trump claimed that his new White House ballroom is "very popular" with the American public, CNN shared a hilariously shady poll that gets to the truth of the matter.

Last year, Trump ordered the demolition of the entire East Wing to make way for a 90,000 square-foot ballroom that will dwarf the size of the White House itself, sparking alarm from historical preservationists and the public alike.

It's well-known across the internet that it takes forever for men to use the restroom. For dads especially, in the time it takes them to poop, when they return to the house, their kids will have aged seven years, and their baby will have learned to walk.

These are jokes, of course, but it's an internet consensus that men spend a really long time on the porcelain throne.

In early 2024, 49-year-old Antonia Eastwood married Ashley Monk after about five months of dating. During the ceremony, Antonia tripped while walking down the aisle.

Antonia and Ashley were both suspicious that she did not trip accidentally and that Ashley's sister, Gemma, actually tripped her. Gemma and Antonia were not close, and the couple also believed that Gemma might be jealous that they were marrying after five months, though she'd been with her childhood sweetheart for 20 years without tying the knot.
