Jim Cornette isn’t slowing down when it comes to Donald Trump — and his latest rant came after reacting to a report about the Department of Homeland Security.
On February 16, 2026, a tweet began circulating that reported federal officials had reached out to major tech platforms for user data tied to accounts critical of ICE. The tweet read:
“🚨#BREAKING: The Department of Homeland Security has sent legal requests to Google, Reddit, Meta, and Discord for the names, email addresses, telephone numbers, and identifying data of accounts that track and criticize ICE.”
Instead of addressing DHS in general terms, Cornette went straight at the President. Cornette not only insulted Trump personally but also referenced alleged crimes, dishonesty, and behavior he views as obnoxious and incompetent.
"Good, tell the fat orange pig in charge of these a**holes to call my home number so I can tell him directly what a large portion of our citizens think about his crimes, his lying, his obnoxiousness and stupidity, and his Slovenian mail-order w****, for starters."
This isn’t new territory for Cornette. Just last month, he offered $5,000 to a Ford worker who publicly insulted Trump during a plant visit, saying he wanted to reward the worker for speaking out. Cornette has never been shy about mixing wrestling commentary with political opinions, and this latest tweet shows he’s still willing to take things to the next level when reacting to federal actions he disagrees with.
Do you think Jim Cornette’s response was justified outrage, or did he cross a line with how he expressed it? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
