  "account": "The Big Blue Bash, an annual fundraiser at Mar-a-Lago supporting the Federal Law Enforcement Officers Foundation, has withdrawn its invitation to Jelly Roll after he made jokes about Donald Trump during his appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live. Kyle S. Reyes, the organizer of the event, announced in a post on X that the musician was disinvited due to his criticism of President Trump and conservatives. Reyes stated that Jelly Roll's behavior was unbecoming of someone who claims to follow Jesus Christ and that he was seeking attention from a \"godless crowd.\" An invitation had been sent to Jelly Roll on April 26th, but it is not known if he accepted. The event, themed \"American Superheroes,\" will feature other performers such as Lou Ferrigno, Dean Cain, and Kevin Sorbo. Jelly Roll made several remarks about Trump's weight and the economy while guest-hosting Kimmel Live, but softened his tone on the final night of his appearance. He emphasized the importance of human dignity and compassion over partisan politics.",
