Rapper Eminem released a lyrical tirade against President Donald Trump on Tuesday night that included support of former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick and all NFL players who take a knee in protest of social injustice and police brutality.

The video entitled “The Storm”, a part of BET’s Hip Hop Awards, was centered around the main message that Eminem “came to stop” the President.

"This is for Colin (Kaepernick), ball up a fist and keep that (expletive) balled like Donald the (expletive). Any fan of mine who's a supporter of (Trump’s) I'm drawing in the sand a line. You either for or against,” Eminem said.

While Trump has sent out several tweets— on related to the NFL— on Wednesday morning, he has not yet responded to the Eminem video.

Kaepernick responded to the video on Tuesday night on Twitter writing, “I apprecaite you.”

Eminem also referenced Trump’s recent fascination with attacking the NFL in the midst of the crisis in Puerto Rico stemming from damage caused by Hurricane Maria.

“The rest of America, stand up. We love our military. We love our country, but we (expletive) hate Trump,” Eminem said.

The White House did not repsond to a request for comment, according to the Associated Press.

Healthcare at College Park, a nursing home in Fulton County, GA, stands shuttered with its door chained on July 26, 2025, having closed in recent months.  Researchers at Brown University developed a list of U.S. nursing homes they predicted were at risk of closing based on 2023 data, and would be at elevated risk of closing due to the One Big, Beautiful Bill Act's cuts to Medicaid. Healthcare at College Park was on their list.  It survived past its last federal inspection in August of 2024 but has now closed down. The bill's biggest provisions will roll out over years starting Jan. 1. (Ariel Hart/AJC)
