People are having their Twitter accounts automatically suspended for tweeting the word 'Memphis'. Dozens of users have reported having their posts almost immediately removed and their accounts blocked for sharing the word. And it appears that those who have dared to tweet the name have received a message informing them they have been locked out for 12 hours. Where Memphis' name had been, it now reads: "This tweet violated the Twitter rules." It's not quite clear why it is going on, and Twitter are yet to comment on the bizarre happening.

During an appearance on FNC’s “Justice,” Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) questioned the Biden administration’s approach on immigration, which argued was behind the ongoing border crisis. DeSantis told host Jeanine Pirro the Biden administration was responsible for the crisis. “It obviously is a disastrous change in policy, Judge,” he said. “If you look, Donald Trump had obviously the wall, which we all supported, but also safe third party agreements, as well as remain in Mexico. And guess what happened? The border was under control. So they’ve gone back on those policies, and they’ve created this crisis. But I think that...

CNN’s chief media correspondent Brian Stelter said Sunday on his “Reliable Sources” program that Fox News host Tucker Carlson was the “new Donald Trump.” Stelter said, “I have come to one conclusion about the GOP and the media.
