A Tennessee man has been in jail for a month, and will be there into December, at least, because a county sheriff 45 minutes away didn't like a meme he posted on Facebook about Donald Trump. Seriously, that is the alleged crime here. Larry Bushart, 61, of Lexington, Tenn., posted a meme in a Facebook group on a thread referencing a local Charlie Kirk vigil 21 with a photo of Trump and a direct quote from the president saying "We have to get over it," which Trump said after a 2024 school shooting in Perry, Iowa, attributing the quote to "Donald Trump on the Perry High School mass shooting one day after," and adding the message, "Seems relevant today." Bushart, a retired police and corrections officer and sheriff's deputy, has been in jail since he was booked in the early-morning hours of Sept. 22 on a charge of "threatening mass violence at a school," and is being held on a preposterous $2 million bond. |
