Olivia of Troye - Saturday Covfefe: The Line Is Moving

Trump’s allies are breaking ranks. Troops say they were left exposed. The U.S. is preparing for a draft. Your phone isn’t as private as you think. And the courts are changing what rights even mean.

That’s where things stand right now.

1. The MAGA Machine Is Cracking, From the Inside

🎙️ Trump’s Media Allies Break Ranks (Axios)

For years, Trump’s power didn’t just come from the Republican Party, it came from the machine around him. Podcasters. Streamers. Influencers. An ecosystem that amplified his message and sold it to millions—a decentralized network that could mobilize faster, louder, and more effectively than anything we’ve seen in modern politics.

That machine is starting to fracture both publicly and unmistakably.

Some of the same voices that helped build it are now calling his rhetoric on Iran reckless, dangerous, even immoral. Even figures like Tucker Carlson and Joe Rogan are starting to question him in ways they haven’t before. This isn’t coming from opponents. It’s coming from the people who spent years defending Trump and his inner circle of enablers.
