Blue Lives Matter, the group behind the “Big Blue Bash” fundraiser at Mar‑a‑Lago, withdrew its invitation to country artist Jelly Roll and replaced him with Coffey Anderson, according to coverage cited by the source from The Post Millennial and The Music Universe.
What organizers said on X
The source cites a post on X attributed to Blue Lives Matter announcing the reversal with the line: “We’re DONE. You’re FIRED.” The post was described as widely shared.
What triggered the reversal, per reports
The Post Millennial reported that Jelly Roll appeared as a guest host on Jimmy Kimmel’s show and mocked Donald Trump, including calling him “full of sh*t” over trade policy with Canada and a “fat pig.” The source article links the disinvitation to those remarks.
Organizer’s stated rationale
Kyle Reyes is quoted in the source as framing the decision in religious and values terms, calling Jelly Roll “a wolf in sheep’s clothing who is willing to sell his own soul for the approval of man,” and describing the event as “God‑honoring” with prayer and gospel elements woven throughout. The source further quotes Reyes as saying, “We don’t hold Jelly Roll’s hate against him, but we sure aren’t going to welcome him into the home of the very man he decided to attack.”
Who’s replacing him
The source says Coffey Anderson was tapped to perform in Jelly Roll’s place. Organizers reportedly highlighted Anderson’s patriotic repertoire, including “Mr. Red White And Blue” and “America Is My Hometown,” and said the night would close with worship music.
About the event, per the source
The Big Blue Bash at Mar‑a‑Lago is described in the source as a fundraiser benefiting the Federal Law Enforcement Officers Foundation. The source also lists an “American Superheroes” theme and mentions planned appearances by Lou Ferrigno, Dean Cain, and Kevin Sorbo, plus a talk on forgiveness and grace by the father of Austin Metcalf.
