People seem to have other plans.

President Donald Trump announced on Monday that he will be addressing the nation Tuesday night regarding his third government shutdown, which began December 22 thanks to an impasse between Trump and Congress over lack of funding for a border wall with Mexico.

Trump's address will be his first from the Oval Office as president and will be covered by the major networks.


"I am pleased to inform you that I will Address the Nation on the Humanitarian and National Security crisis on our Southern Border," Trump tweeted Monday afternoon. "Tuesday night at 9:00 P.M. Eastern."

What will Trump say? Who knows. Many people have already committed to ignoring him, as his speeches are generally riddled with falsehoods and finger-pointing.

"Trump plans on giving an address on his manufactured border crisis tomorrow night at 9pm," Scott Dworkin wrote on Twitter. "Retweet if you won’t be watching and reply with what you’ll be doing instead."  is now a trending hashtag.

So, what will people be doing instead?

Literally anything.

This sounds fun.

Zing. Stormy Daniels will be doing something special on Instagram during Trump's speech.

Or this.

Despite what Trump says, the crisis at the border is of his own making.

Thus, the public is largely uninterested in hearing his latest round of excuses.

Jeez.

Remember when the president implied shutdowns were the president's fault?

And that he would be proud to own this one?

On Tuesday, following multiple rounds of negotiations between Trump and Congressional leaders, the country will learn if that is indeed the case. Grab the popcorn and a stress ball.

Woman Sparks Debate After Accusing Frontier Airlines Of Kicking Her Off Flight For Being Deaf

Let this Frontier Airlines saga be a reminder to all of us that not all disabilities and needs are visible, so when a person requests accommodations, it's better to believe them.

TikToker @legallyswiftie13 posted in 2024 that, though she was in her early twenties, she discovered that she would be rapidly losing her hearing, which was discovered at a routine medical check-up. Though she could still speak and hear, it would become increasingly difficult for her to hear, especially when there were competing noises in the area.

Former GOP Senator Gets Brutal Wakeup Call After Criticizing People For Playing 'Candy Crush' Instead Of 'Making Babies'

Ben Sasse represented Nebraska in the United States Senate from 2015 to 2023. As a Midwestern moderate, the sometimes controversial Sasse was often critical of MAGA Republican President Donald Trump on social media and on the Senate floor.

At one point, the Nebraska GOP censured him because of his criticism of Trump. But Sasse, like Maine Republican Senator Susan Collins, would still vote with the majority of his party when his vote was needed to back Trump's agenda.
