While many across the globe are focused on the spread of the COVID-19 virus, First Lady Melania Trump decided to share some good news.

On Thursday, March 5, Trump posted on her official FLOTUS Twitter account.

Along with some photos, Mrs. Trump shared:

"I am excited to share the progress of the Tennis Pavillion at [the White House]. Thank you to the talented team for their hard work and dedication."

But rather than the "ooos" and "ahhhhs" she expected, Trump's posts got mainly boos and hisses.










Many people invoked the name of Marie Antoinette.





After the backlash, the First Lady responded with another tweet.

But people quickly called out the apparent hypocrisy of the FLOTUS and her #BeBest campaign.

It appears neither the original tweet by President Trump's third wife nor her scolding of her critics had the desired affect.

Maybe instead of #BeBest, someone could be better.

U.S. Women's Olympic Hockey Team Captain Breaks Her Silence To Slam Trump After His Sexist Joke

Hilary Knight, the captain of the gold medal-winning U.S. women's Olympic hockey team, criticized President Donald Trump in remarks to reporters after Trump made headlines for what she described as a "distasteful" joke at her team's expense.

Most members of the U.S. men's ice hockey team joined Trump at the White House on Tuesday but their visit was dogged by controversy when Trump phoned them Sunday night to invite them to attend his State of the Union address and quipped that failing to invite the women as well might "get him impeached."

Lauren Boebert Dragged For Leaking Photo Of Hillary Clinton's Closed Door Epstein Deposition To MAGA YouTuber

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's deposition in the Epstein case had to be paused yesterday after Colorado Republican Representative Lauren Boebert secretly snapped a photo of her and sent it to right-wing podcaster Benny Johnson—who then immediately posted it online.

Clinton, who along with her husband, former President Bill Clinton, had insisted on testifying publicly regarding matters tied to the late financier, pedophile, and sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, faced hours of questioning in a closed-door deposition after Republican Chair of the House Oversight Committee refused to make their depositions public.

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul Trolls Kash Patel With Epic Zing Over 'Heated Rivalry' Airbnb Listing

MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's FBI Director, Kash Patel, is facing backlash over his taxpayer-funded locker room booze fest at the Milano Cortina Winter Olympics in Italy.

Patel flew to Italy on a taxpayer-funded FBI plane despite having repeatedly criticized his predecessors for such excursions throughout 2023 and 2024. But an FBI spokesperson claimed it was not a personal trip because Patel met with Italian law enforcement and the U.S. ambassador to Italy during his visit.

Guy Waiting For Luggage At Baggage Claim Mortified After His Undergarments Start Coming Out One At A Time

We've all heard the advice to "travel light," but packing only one sock for a flight might be taking it a bit far.

But in all actuality, TikToker @laysuperstar's brother, Hugh, did not only pack a singular sock for his trip, even if that's what the airport baggage claim would like you to believe.
