Last evening marked the return of the Met Gala, that iconic New York City event where the ultra-wealthy showcase fashion that looks increasingly like something out of the Hunger Games films.

While many fans adore Heidi Klum’s commitment to over-the-top couture, it is hard to deny that the aesthetic frequently mirrors the high-fashion decadence of the Capitol of Panem.

The 2026 Met Gala sparked intense debate long before the first guest arrived, largely due to the high-profile lead sponsors for this year: Jeff Bezos and his wife, Lauren Sánchez Bezos.

The activist organization “Everyone Hates Elon”—whose mission statement involves “aggravating billionaires through strategic grassroots action”—has gained massive traction online for its direct call-out of the Amazon founder.

Their approach stands in contrast to actress Sarah Paulson, pictured above, who attempted to convey a similar sentiment but faced social media backlash for being perceived as “out of touch” with the working class.

The activist group installed provocative advertisements in various New York City bus shelters. One specific ad noted: “The Bezos Met Gala invites you to party like it’s 1939. Democracy is so last season. Dress code: willful ignorance.”

In another stunt, they set up a “VIP toilet” stocked with empty plastic water bottles. This was a direct jab at viral reports regarding Amazon delivery drivers needing to urinate in bottles to meet the corporation’s strict productivity quotas.

However, the most impactful moment from the group was a video featuring 72-year-old Amazon employee Mary Hill. The footage was projected directly onto the side of Bezos’s luxury penthouse the night before the event. Here is the message Mary delivered:

“Jeff Bezos, my name is Mary Hill. I am a 72-year-old warehouse worker at one of your facilities. When we struggle from paycheck to paycheck, from week to week, it really angers me, because if it weren’t for every associate in every Amazon facility, he wouldn’t have all those zeros behind his name.”

“Shame on you, Jeff Bezos. The people that need to be being celebrated at the Met Gala are the workers, people like me. We deserve that celebration. We deserve so much more than we’re getting. There’s power in numbers, and there’s more of us than there are of you.”

“Remember, Jeff, ordinary people like myself that helped make you billionaires. If we built it, we can tear it down. Think about that tonight, okay, after that bottle of champagne, when you go to bed. We’re gonna keep growing, and we’re gonna keep building, and we’re gonna keep protesting, and we’re gonna keep marching, and we’re gonna keep fighting this dystopian culture. We’re not stopping; we’re just getting cranked up. Enjoy your damn Gala.”

As the video concludes, Mary is seen standing on the sidewalk, watching her own words illuminate the walls of the billionaire’s private residence.

Conversely, many felt a sense of heartbreak that a woman of her age is still working in a warehouse rather than enjoying a peaceful retirement.

Renowned fashion journalist Elaine Welteroth chimed in on the viral post, stating, “Felt that in my soul.”

OK, this is it. They’ve finally done it: the wildest poll of all time!

YouGov recently asked Republicans and Democrats a very serious question: Could you physically beat up Donald Trump? They also asked them if they thought an 8-year-old boy could take him on.

For context, and for your consideration, Trump was just recently talking about his physical fitness.

During a recent event, he talked about his rigorous 1-minute daily workout routine, “I work out so much. Like, about one minute a day, max. If I’m lucky.”

In the past, he has also said, “I get exercise. I mean, I walk, I this, I that.”

And, as we all know, he runs on a steady diet of Diet Coke and McDonald’s.

Sooo, with all of that in mind, the results to the “can you beat Trump in a fight” poll are somewhat surprising:

The data speaks for itself, and it’s pretttty embarrassing. More Republicans say Trump could beat them in a fight, 39% to 33%, while Democrats are basically like no way, with 75% saying they’d win and just 5% giving Trump the victory.

In terms of the fight with an 8-year-old boy, 72% of Republicans said Donald Trump would win that one. On the other side, 54% of Democrats said the 8-year-old boy would win.

It got even wilder when you broke it down by gender.

According to the poll, Democratic women are over 20 points more likely to say they can beat Trump up compared to Republican men.

Needless to say, this poll has gone viral.

The responses are funny:

“He’s 79, can’t walk a straight line and falls asleep in meetings. Republicans still think he’d knuckle them into the dirt lmao.”

“There is a major crisis of lack of self-respect in the Republican party right now.”

“You’d just have to stay out of his reach for the whole forty seconds that it’d take him to get exhausted and fall over.”

Eric Trump Faces Backlash Over Donald Trump Airport Branding

Eric Trump faced an immediate and fierce wave of online backlash this Tuesday after debuting the fresh branding for the newly christened Donald J. Trump International Airport located in Palm Beach, Florida.

Posting via Elon Musk’s X platform, the second son of Donald Trump expressed that he felt “extremely proud” to reveal the official logo for the facility previously known as Palm Beach International Airport. The decision to rename the site has already ignited significant public debate, specifically due to its connection to a trademark agreement involving a Trump family business entity.

“There is no person more deserving of this incredible honor than @realDonaldTrump! Congratulations Dad!” Eric Trump shared in his post. “Looking forward to seeing flights landing at ‘DJT’ very very soon!”

The communications department for California Governor Gavin Newsom, who is widely viewed as a potential 2028 Democratic presidential contender, wasted no time in responding to the social media update.

“Gas prices are up over 50% since your dad started a reckless war in Iran,” the governor’s team retorted. The office then added a sarcastic finishing blow: “But congrats on the airport logo. Huge accomplishment!”

@GovPressOffice / @EricTrump / Via x.com

Various other social media detractors joined the fray, mocking the airport’s updated visual identity by redesigning the logo to include references to the late Jeffrey Epstein, a disgraced figure who was once an associate of the former president.

CNN Fact Check Shows Trump Ballroom Less Popular Than Ghosts

It appears that Donald Trump is physically incapable of staying silent regarding his controversial ballroom.

For those who haven’t been keeping up with the latest updates, the construction project has encountered several major obstacles. Currently, Republicans are requesting $1 billion in taxpayer funding to keep it afloat.

Do you recall when he initially claimed it would cost a mere $200 million and be entirely self-funded? Yeah, it seems those promises are a distant memory now.

That hasn’t deterred Trump from pushing his persistent “WE NEED THE BALLROOM” talking point. This past Wednesday, he doubled down on the supposed popularity of the project: “It really has become very popular. When people see the design, they really like it. It’s been great, gotten some great reviews.”

The White House/ atrupar/Twitter: @atrupar

Well, CNN decided it was time to fact-check that “popularity,” and they demonstrated, in VERY clear visual terms, just how deeply disliked this project actually is:

CNN/factpostnews/x.com

So, it turns out that ghosts and telepathy are apparently more favored by the public than the damn ballroom!

That specific screenshot has (rightfully) gone viral across social media, and the reactions are truly something else. Here are the funniest responses:

We have:

“i will always support ghosts over ballrooms.”

EXMelPPVs

CNN/hithereimclay/x.com

“American support for GHOSTS is at an ALL-TIME HIGH!”

CNN/woman_mage/x.com

“it cannot be true that approximately 3/10 americans believe in telepathy. I don’t want to believe it.”

GQu9w0Ivl

CNN/transitracer/x.com

“i like that this implies theres people out there who ‘support’ telepathy and ghosts but don’t believe in them.”

And lastly, “hold up 39% of yall think ghosts are real?”
