Oh dear.

The tone-deafness of the Trump administration reached a new low on Wednesday after Ivanka Trump, President Donald Trump's daughter and advisor, tweeted that she was "en route to The Hague!"

The Dutch city is best known for housing the International Criminal Court, in which trials are held for war criminals, crimes against humanity, and genocide.


Considering the Trump family's coziness with murderous autocrats like Russia's Vladimir Putin & North Korea's Kim Jong Un, as well as the ongoing humanitarian abuses of immigrants in the United States, Twitter pounced without mercy.

People understandably have questions, like if Ms. Trump will be joined by others who helped implement the "zero tolerance" border policy.

This is probably not the response Ms. Trump anticipated.

Ms. Trump's stopover falls on the eve of the 75th anniversary of D-Day, the Allied invasion of Normandy in 1944 that turned the tide of World War II.

Some people think the tweet may have been sent from the future.

Ha ha Hague.

Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
