#Brokeahontas Trump really is the biggest loser ever who convinced 63 million people to vote for him because of Fox News.
He is not really a Republican. He became one because their morals and ethics matched up, not their ideology— Lou Tenore (@lou_tenore) May 11, 2019
Or you could just release your taxes.
But we know you won't, #Brokeahontas. https://t.co/zNHXExtTUV

Grandpa?
Yes Billy?
Who were the Republicans?
When I was young, they were the second largest political party in America
What happened to them?
A con artist named Donald Trump. He told 10,000 lies
Was that the man called #Brokeahontas?
Yes the GOP fell for his scams
They were dumb— Tomi T Ahonen (@tomiahonen) May 11, 2019

Donald Trump stars as #Brokeahontas

Not a fan of Bill Maher but him referring to @realDonaldTrump as #Brokeahontas was brilliant. Though I prefer Mar-a-lard-ass myself.

I’ve always been adamantly opposed to any democratic challenger stooping to grade school name calling like @realDonaldTrump but-just read @billmaher’s suggestion of @SenWarren calling trump #Brokeahontas and I think he would be COMPLETELY SHOOK by that.#WeKnowYouAreBroke

I hope that @realDonaldTrump didn’t hear about the nickname #Brokeahontas.
Or that @realDonaldTrump knows that #Brokeahontas is now trending high in the DC area.
So help me in not telling @realDonaldTrump about #Brokeahontas.
Because @realDonaldTrump would hate #Brokeahontas. https://t.co/luRRDjIeIT

Others pushed back on using the nickname.

On Wednesday, Kellyanne Conway said voting by mail should not be universal, adding that people should be willing to wait in lines to vote during a pandemic if they are willing to wait in hour-long lines at Georgetown Cupcake. People were swift to point out the flaws in her argument, including that cupcakes are not a constitutional right and that Georgetown Cupcake is actually not allowing people to stand in line right now.
But there's another problem. On Thursday, the Huffington Post reported that Conway herself voted by mail in the 2018 midterm elections.

Research reveals the damage right-wing media has inflicted on America — and it’s just the tip of the iceberg
Donald Trump wants to go after social media because Twitter pointed out one of his lies. And, in fact, social media has done a lot of damage to America and the American body politic, with the most visible example being it’s help in putting Donald Trump in the White House in 2016.
But even more concerning should be Fox News and right wing hate radio. A new study out of Columbia university finds that when people in any particular ZIP Code experience a 1% increase in Fox News viewership, it “reduces the propensity to stay at home by 8.9 percentage points compared to the pre-pandemic average.”

Texas bar owner bans masks to prevent ‘virtue signaling’ – and kickstarts an online firestorm
A bar owner in Elgin, Texas, has implemented a new rule for his business: no entry with a mask.
“Due to our concern for our citizens, if they feel the need to wear a mask, then they should probably stay home until it’s safe," read a sign posted outside Liberty Tree Tavern.
Speaking to 9News, bar owner Kevin Smith said he's following social distancing guidelines so the masks are unnecessary.
The bar's Facebook page shared an article on the story, and the comment section filled up with a mix of reactions.
