The short version is she’s a right wing influencer (formerly a big FoxNews host now independent) who’s been subject to criticism from some quarters for refusing to denounce the open antisemites in her movement. So the joke here is that she’s worried Israel has it out for her thus she’s suspicious of an old pager (think Hezbollah attack from 2024).

You have to wonder what prompted this sign.
I lived through something like that, as a legendary story where I worked in the first startup I fell over backwards in after graduating with a comp sci degree. The upstairs bathroom was always coated with shit. Nobody knew why. I later learned that one of our employees was dealing with Chron's disease. The perspective of time, where he lacked the energy to even clean the room after he exploded in it, gave me some insight into how debilitating the disease was. He was also known to curl up under his desk at times. One could have mistaken him for a weak or lazy human, but he was fighting something absolutely monstrous. After his diagnosis, which was a long time coming, he finally had surgery for a perforated intestine. It's the sort of thing that would have killed him 100 years ago. And it's not a pleasant death when you're poisoned from within by fecal matter seeping into your body.

That's quite a contrast with the people I see on TV commercials for Chrohn's disease medication, who always appear to be on the verge of having an orgasm after taking a couple of pills.
