Former President of the United States of America, Donald Trump’s niece, Mary Trump, has bid farewell to Spotify. She didn’t openly name Joe Rogan in her first tweet, but the names she thanked in her tweet are ones who left Spotify after issues with the platform not removing the veteran UFC commentator’s show.

In a tweet a few hours later, the ex-U.S. President’s niece vowed to not return to the platform (with the Mary Trump Show) unless they ban Rogan from it.

“I’m removing my podcast from @Spotify. I know it’s not a big deal but hope it will be part of a growing avalanche. Thank you to #NeilYoung, @jonimitchell, and @nilslofgren for your courage in leading the way”

 

“Spotify should get rid of Joe Rogan’s show not just because he spreads COVID disinformation but because he is a racist. It’s yet another reason for us to #DeleteSpotify. Check out my new podcast–available everywhere you listen–except Spotify,” Trump tweeted.

Rogan hosts the number 1 podcast on the platform and had also signed an exclusive deal worth $100 million back in 2020.
