If you do a simple search for “Melania Trump” Saturday night, the first result is this, from The Telegraph:
Melania Trump will not join her husband at the Camp David presidential retreat this weekend, extending to 22 days the time since she last appeared in public. https://t.co/91XyaKPGWt

In case you missed it, the first lady’s whereabouts have been in question all week on Twitter, to the point where she actually tweeted this Wednesday:
I see the media is working overtime speculating where I am & what I'm doing. Rest assured, I'm here at the @WhiteHouse w my family, feeling great, & working hard on behalf of children & the American people!

Journalist Yashar Ali seemed dumbfounded by a tweet he saw float by Saturday afternoon:

Cuz conspiracy theories feel so good. MSM makes the mistake believing it’s just on the fringe. Increasingly, it’s far more mainstream, potent and influential. And it’s a huge problem. https://t.co/5Vkygommtu

Ali was kind enough to black out the name of the author who tweeted that, but the original didn’t take long to find, not that it’s all that unique.
Melania Trump: alive or dead? https://t.co/1wWeUcdcm3

Melania Trump if alive, has abdicated her position as First Lady of the U.S.
there is no OTHER explanation.
There is no way a person in her role would continue to ignore public requests as to her welfare and status, unless she is dead, or abdicated her position, filed divorce.— WTF? (@neveragainFL) June 2, 2018
Sorry, but after 3 weeks of no info on @flotus, other than a fraudulent tweet from the #OrangeClown, we are left to develop our own theories.
Here's mine:
The trip to Walter Reed was the result of a suicide attempt & she is now heavily medicated against her will.#WhereIsMelania— Trotskyist (@trotskydc) June 2, 2018
100% — wonder why we haven’t seen her in 3 weeks. Google bruised face and tell me how long it takes for that to heal… #flotus @FLOTUS
