Olivia, CODEPINK Peace Activist, Removed for Wearing a Keffiyeh as $1 Trillion War Budget Advances
June 13, 2025
Wearing a keffiyeh is not a crime. Supporting genocide is.
At a U.S. Senate hearing, Olivia, a peace activist with @codepinkalert, was nearly arrested — not for speaking, not for disrupting, but simply for wearing a keffiyeh.
Meanwhile, inside the same room, Fox News’ Pete Hegseth testified in support of a $1 TRILLION Pentagon budget — more money for bombs, not for people.
This is what repression looks like in real time:
Silencing peace. Funding war.
But Olivia stood firm — and she’s not alone.
We will not be silenced.
