The Old Gravy Show with OG

Biden & his DOJ jailed me over a Twitter Meme Post!

Old Gravy in studio guest Douglas Mackey, charged by the Biden DOJ in 2021 for 2016 memes joking about texting votes for Hillary Clinton, joins the Old Gravy Podcast to discuss his free speech case. In 2016, Mackey, under the Twitter handle Ricky Vaughn, was a political influencer with a significant following, posting satirical content that went viral. Mackey was arrested by the FBI in 2021, days after Biden’s inauguration, for a 2016 meme, accused of voter suppression under a 1870s Klu Klux Klan law (§ 241). Convicted in 2023 despite no evidence anyone fell for the meme; faced seven months in pr but won a unanimous Second Circuit appeal on July 9, 2025, overturning the conviction. Key Issues: Discusses DOJ overreach, media portrayal as an alt-right villain, and the political motivations behind targeting a Trump supporter. Support: Backed by figures like Elon Musk and Joe Rogan; Meme Defense Fund raised over $500K to support his legal fight. Personal Toll: Mackey shares the impact on his career, finances, and family, and his resolve to fight for free speech precedent over accepting a pardon. Victory & Future: Plans to sue the DOJ/FBI for accountability; aims to protect online free speech for conservatives through his case’s landmark ruling. Broader Context: Compares his case to J6 prosecutions and others under § 241, highlighting a pattern of silencing dissent. Advice: Offers insights for podcasters and X users on avoiding censorship and navigating the “Mackey trap” in the era of AI and misinformation flags. Call to Action: Support the Meme Defense Fund and follow  @DougMackeyCase for updates. Sponsor: The Plaza Grande in Cherry Hill, NJ – luxury 55+ living with pools, activities, and a country club vibe.
