MAGA senator shredded for repost of OJ and Nicole Brown Simpson meme as Elizabeth Warren and Spirit Airlines

Spirit announced that it would go belly up, leaving thousands of passengers suddenly scrambling to get to their destinations. The Trump administration had eyed a takeover of the beleaguered company.

In response, Lee reposted an image from a right-wing X account with O.J. Simpson, the late football player who was tried but acquitted of murdering his estranged wife, with text over his face reading “Elizabeth Warren,” and Nicole Brown Simpson reading, “Spirit Airlines.”

“Nailed it,” Lee posted with the image. Lee posted the image not on his official Senate X account, but rather on his personal “BasedMikeLee” account, where he frequently mouths off and gives running commentary on politics.
