You have a short somewhere?
If you have AFCI (arc fault) instead of GFCI, then there is probably a loose wire

If your ROKU keeps loading it is probably because your internet speed is too slow or your router is too slow.You might be getting interference from a neighbors router.Try getting a dual band router.

Refrigerators should not be run on gfci plugs .As they age , they will pull slightly more amps . Also , gfci plugs will weaken even though no previous problem with them . If you have a gfci plug behind the refrig , replace it with a normal type plug .

Amperage pull too high. Increase the rating of the GFCI outlet - or there i an issue with the washer itself.

My ULine icemaker just started triping the GFCI plug.

Ground fault should not be used when you have a compressor plugged to it. The start amps can trip a ground fault. You can try to plug the unit on a regular outlet and if it doesnt trip the breaker then unit should be good. You can try to replace the ground fault if you need it (but make sure you have a higher amperage on the new one.)

Ground fault as soon as I plug it in.

You more than likely have a dead short in the compressor
