A mocking chant — "hit 'em with a stick, hit 'em with a broom, fook 'em up, BOOM" — is being shared as commentary on Russia's cyber activity around the war in Ukraine. The post ties the taunt to Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump, bot networks and cloud-based attacks, and warns that election interference and cybersecurity are on the ballot in the US midterms, urging people to vote.

A political commentary circulating on social media argues that the politicians and supporters around Donald Trump were complicit in everything he did, approving it along the way, and would back him again without hesitation. The post claims their loyalty shows genuine agreement with his agenda rather than mere acquiescence, and it has drawn engagement from users debating Republican accountability for his actions.

US Department of Homeland Security is reported to have raised its quota for immigrant arrests to 3,000 people per day. Critics say the target is unrealistic for catching serious offenders, arguing that Immigration and Customs Enforcement will instead detain easier targets, including people with no criminal records, as agents push to hit the daily numbers.
