Fixed.Everyone got one unless you opted out ahead of time.![]()
Color me surprised... had no clueAre you people serious? You have to have been living under a rock not to know this was coming. It's been mentioned on local and national news. Even my employer has been sending emails for us to expect it.
I played it better, told my boss the POTUS needed me, stat!Got mine. It said I didn't have to do anything. Told my boss I'm napping the rest of the day on orders from the POTUS.
I thought about telling him I was going home for the day but he'd probably believe me and tell me to enjoy my afternoon.I played it better, told my boss the POTUS needed me, stat!
Went home for a nap.
I'd prefer to nap at home than at the office.I thought about telling him I was going home for the day but he'd probably believe me and tell me to enjoy my afternoon.
"In less than two years in office, I have already sent more text alerts than even Abraham Lincoln, one of the greatest presidents of all time."
FTR, I am not a 45 supporter in any way.
I know, just trying to say that I am not a red MAGA-hat wearing person, screaming that everything he does is great. In fact I am about 180 from that, just a bit surprised that people look at the nature of who is doing something, rather than the thing itself.FTR, I am not a 45 supporter in any way.![]()
its ok if you are or aren’t.
A botched jokeIt's like an Amber Alert, with the notification that someone has abducted my country
Take it to the PSF, guy.Didn't get a text. Just an alert that popped up. It said "witch hunt" and "no collusion".
I agree. Seems like something Donald J Trump came up with. Now I’m not declaring I’m a Trump supporter or Trump hater , just a random observation and not intended to offend anyoneI do find it a little odd that it says Presidential Alert, not National Emergency Alert or something.
Breaking News that Manti Te'o's girlfriend has been found.I'm just curious. What possible reason would there be to need to notify the entire country of something?
Yep. Saw it and it didn't phase me at all, which then worried me. But it wasn't the executive source. It was the power of it.This is the 4th test. The system was created by the Bush administration.
The "Presidential Text" level was signed into law by Obama.
I love how people are reacting like Trump is personally violating their lives with this thing.
The fact that this text produced below makes it all worthwhile for meThis is the 4th test. The system was created by the Bush administration.

This is pretty much all politics in America these daysjust a bit surprised that people look at the nature of who is doing something, rather than the thing itself.
He thought it needed a new name.Why did the president text me a picture of a mushroom?
I stood up at my work and loudly announced that I texted back, "You will not defeat us! We are The Resistance! You Orange Orangutan ###hole!"Some people at my work are all in a huff about this. Why are people getting worked up about this? Who the hell cares?
Because it's the hyperpoliticized environment everyone wanted when Trump got elected. "Politics is life."Some people at my work are all in a huff about this. Why are people getting worked up about this? Who the hell cares?
He's checking to see if you like to get high.Why did the president text me a picture of a mushroom?
Russian hacker warningsI'm just curious. What possible reason would there be to need to notify the entire country of something?
Other than zombies.
You can't opt out.Everyone with a compatible phone got was supposed to get one unless you opted out ahead of time.
How do we know it wasn't the Russians who hijacked the alert system?Russian hacker warnings
Or maybe it's just a message of love from Kim Jong Un.How do we know it wasn't the Russians who hijacked the alert system?![]()
