Neil Young & The Chrome Hearts just lit up Farm Aid with their new protest anthem “Big Crime.”🔥 🎶“There’s big crime in DC at the White House…Got to get the fascists out…”

“If democracy had airbags, they’d have deployed by now.”

This is the type of person Trump pardoned. He proudly asserts that they should have injured a US Capitol Police Officer worse than they did on January 6th (@sergeantaqgo.bsky.social) had to medically retire). But MAGA supports law enforcement? Seriously? Then show me by condemning this guy.

Another week of chaos: DEA floated drone strikes in Mexico (I warned about this!), FEMA staff hunted by militias, Proud Boys bragging about “scalps,” and Trump’s FCC playing mob boss. But there’s hope too: butterflies in Missouri & The Atlantic's free journalism for students. Covfefe’s on.

“The answer isn’t despair, it’s action. Defend those being silenced. Support independent media. Know your rights and use them. Authoritarianism thrives on apathy. Democracy survives when we refuse to be quiet.” Must read from @oliviaoftroye.com Thank you.

From Antifa “terrorists” to Jimmy Kimmel being yanked off air, Trump’s direct assault on free speech is here.

Comedy. Criticism. Commentary. All protected speech. Pulling Jimmy Kimmel off the air is an outrageous act of censorship.

Today is Mexican Independence Day. Project 2025 calls Mexico “a failed state run by cartels” & leaves the door open to U.S. military force. Add Trump’s strikes on Venezuelan boats & it looks less like theory, more like a roadmap. Are we about to bomb our neighbor? They floated it during Trump 1.0.

Viva Mexico!!!🇲🇽

This was a hard week, no way around it. America feels broken. But paying attention matters. Congratulations to Brazil for showing the world what accountability looks like. Here are 5 headlines I don’t want you to miss & music for inspiration.

Brazil just showed the world what accountability looks like.🇧🇷 Fmr President Jair Bolsonaro has been found guilty of plotting a coup after losing the 2022 election. The Supreme Court ruled he incited the Jan. 8 attack on Congress, the Supreme Court, & the presidential palace. Democracy held.

On 9/11, after Charlie Kirk’s assassination, America faces another test. Political violence is spiraling. We need empathy, and civic courage.

Thomas Massie broke the silence on Epstein: “We can’t avoid justice just to avoid embarrassment for some very powerful men.” For that, Trump wants him gone, and GOP leaders are helping.

If only fascism took a day off, but here we are. This week’s Covfefe: 📉 Rove’s midterm math 🥸 MAGA’s Hitler rehab tour 🚫 Killing the watchdog 👶 Project 2025’s baby project 🕵️ ICE gets spyware Some headlines you might’ve missed...

RFK Jr. is testifying today. The real warning came this morning from the CDC Director he just fired after 29 days. Dr. Susan Monarez refused to rubber-stamp his anti-vax agenda. She held the line for science. He fired her. I've worked with her, and America should listen.

Brazil puts its coup-plotter on trial. America put ours back in power. Bolsonaro’s in court for attacking democracy. Meanwhile, Trump’s in the Oval Office honoring a Jan 6 rioter with military honors...

CDC scientists walk out & protest. Border patrol arrests firefighters battling wildfire mid-blaze. Trump ghosts the UN on human rights. And DOGE put your Social Security file in the cloud...It’s Covfefe time.

Petty AF! Trump just stripped Kamala Harris of her Secret Service protection, a detail that Biden quietly extended for her safety. He’s punishing political enemies and sending a message. No matter how you feel about Harris, canceling her protection is reckless, dangerous, and beneath the office.

Must read post from @oliviaoftroye.com on the threat trump poses for NATO security re Greenland. "Undermining Denmark’s sovereignty fractures NATO from within. That’s a gift to Putin and Xi, who thrive on Western division." www.livingitwitholiviatroye.com/p/the-greenl...

I warned this wasn’t a joke. Now, Trump loyalists are running covert ops to destabilize Greenland & rattle Denmark. It sounds like a bad Hollywood movie...but it’s apparently U.S. policy, straight from the Oval Office.

FEMA’s own employees are sounding the alarm. I was on the ground after Katrina. I know the cost of failure. It's currently hurricane season and FEMA staff are warning we’re headed there again...

John Bolton gets raided. I get death threats. Charlie Kirk says immigrants aren’t “real Americans.” And congratulations, you now own Intel stock. ☕️News you might’ve missed & something for your soul.

"It's retaliation to protect Trump, not America."

When Kash Patel turns the FBI into Trump’s revenge squad, that’s not justice, it’s authoritarianism. Today it’s John Bolton, tomorrow it could be anyone who dares defy Trump. The Bureau’s credibility is being gutted from within. This is intimidation, not law enforcement. We should all be alarmed.

DNI Tulsi Gabbard has revoked 37 security clearances—experts in AI, cyber defense & election security, gone. More firings to come. She calls it “ODNI 2.0.” It’s not reform. It’s retaliation to protect Trump, not America.

Zelenskyy, Trump, and the NATO Mirage. Trump offered “NATO-like” guarantees…poker chips in a war Ukraine can’t risk.

Putin gets the limo ride. Zelenskyy gets told to “make a deal.” Human rights? Whitewashed. Fake ICE agents roam while the real ones hide behind masks. Trump swaps PBS for the TikTok of right-wing indoctrination. ☕️5 stories they don’t want you to notice...

From Epstein’s network to America’s campuses, power protects power.
 And when the watchdogs are gone, the only thing stopping a predator is whether the institution fears a PR hit. Full deep dive here on Trump's civil rights purge.

After watching this conversation live, I got the audiobook and started listening to it last night. GET IT! It is so incredibly well-written, and well worth the time. Dan is a terrific writer, and I'm trying to spread the word as much as I can to my tiny audience! LOL Now...back to my audio book!

What if a novel wasn’t really fiction? On Open Bar’s release day, I spoke with former sex crimes prosecutor–turned–novelist Dan Schorr about cover-ups—Epstein, Weinstein, Trump—and Call Her Daddy host Alex Cooper’s heartbreaking college sexual harassment story. Power shields predators...

Paid a visit to my old workplace, the White House, today. Serenaded Trump & Stephen Miller with the Mexican National Anthem (I’m sure they loved that). Was strolling through DC looking for the violence they hyped earlier today...another manufactured crisis to distract from the Epstein files.

That Trump presser wasn’t about safety. It was a major step towards martial law, something he’s always wanted. Questions: -In 2020, FBI & other federal law enforcement warned against their misuse—they're fine with it now? -Why deploy the National Guard today & not on Jan 6? And...

This Trump press conference is like watching a Fox News Live special, except the ludicrous nut jobs aren’t just doing punditry, they’re running the country. Look at them all performing for the mob boss.

The US military is preparing to activate hundreds of National Guard troops to DC. This presidency knows no bounds. Trump’s always seen the military as his personal tool for his bidding & grievances…and he’s misusing federal law enforcement again, just like in 2020.

Grateful to James Cullum at @alxnow.bsky.social for this no-holds-barred conversation on my journey from the White House, to speaking out, and how Del Ray has become the community that embraced me and my family. It’s about finding purpose, resilience, and home.

☕ This week: Fake outrage + real abuses of power. -Right-wing “denim disinfo”
-Fox leak trial vs. the First Amendment
-Putin’s gut-punch to the CIA
-Alzheimer’s breakthrough at risk
-Uber’s 400K sexual assaults, safety fixes buried Full breakdown⬇️

I’m being sued, again, for telling the truth. Richard Grenell’s refiling isn’t about justice. It’s about punishment, intimidation, & silencing dissent--straight from the Trump playbook. I won’t back down. I won’t cower to their abuse of the law & their white-collar thuggery.

1/Frmr Amb. #RickGrenell filed Amended Complaint against @oliviaoftroye.com in fed lawsuit previously dismissed by Court bc no defamation determined to have occurred as matter of law. Now we again need your help to fight back. www.gofundme.com/f/olivia-tro...

Redacted Nation: From Epstein docs to fired statisticians to deleted CDC pages, this isn't chaos... It's the operating system.

Trump and Marco Rubio give a triple murderer a free ticket out of Venezuela & into the US. Chemtrails become law. Project 2025 author now wants a US Senate seat. Just a totally normal week in 2025….Here are some headlines you may have missed & some inspiration.

A 🎯 from @oliviaoftroye.com on Trump scrambling to hide from the truth in Epstein-gate: “he looks really guilty.” youtu.be/czfvFGfxijs?...

One of the whistleblowers had audio tape. Audio. And they fucking confirmed him anyway. republicans honestly don't give a fuck about this country.

They confirmed Emil Bove. They know better. They did it anyway. Power now. Regret later. Cowardice dressed up as “leadership.”

They don’t need to rig machines when they can rewrite the rules. The Trump team is embedding federal observers, launching DOJ audits, and redrawing the maps, starting in Texas. This isn’t about fraud. It’s about control. And the playbook is already in motion.

Given the option of saying (about the most notorious pedophile in American history), "I ended our friendship because he was a creep" - and - "I ended our friendship because I don't like it when people try to poach my staff" IT'S PRETTY WEIRD TO GO WITH THE LAST ONE !!!!

The espresso’s strong. The Trump team’s Epstein gaslighting?Falling flat. Maxwell wants a pardon. Trump “hasn’t thought about it.”👌Meanwhile: Little Leaguers travel banned, birthright citizenship battles on, a heroic teacher inspires & Sheryl Crow drops an awesome protest anthem, "The New Normal."

🇺🇸America First? Then feed America first. Coca-Cola goes “real cane” after a Trump nudge.
Problem? The U.S. already imports 1/3 of its sugar, while we’re shutting off crop satellites & cutting farm soil grants. Only one country can feed itself.
It’s not us. So why gut the tools that feed Americans?

Yes, Trump’s suing the WSJ for $10b over THAT letter. But there's also a London theater reenacting Jan 6. 🎥Eddington opens this weekend & it broke me. Go see it! And, don't lose track of what the Trump team's doing w/ our next elections. 5 headlines you may have missed & along with some inspiration.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

How do you kill NPR, ban protests, silence researchers, and still call it “freedom”? Simple: slap a flag on it and call it patriotism.
