Overview

• Loggins called the use of his Top Gun hit unauthorized, said he would have denied permission, and requested immediate removal of his recording from the clip.
• President Trump shared an apparently AI-generated video on Saturday showing an AI likeness of him dumping what appears to be feces on “No Kings” protesters with Danger Zone as the soundtrack.
• Reporters noted the clip may have originated on the Trump meme account @xerias_x, a detail that has not been independently confirmed.
• As of the latest reports, the video still plays with Loggins’ recording intact on Trump’s Truth Social page and on X.
• Loggins criticized the video as divisive and urged unity, as the episode unfolded following nationwide “No Kings” demonstrations reported at roughly 7 million participants across more than 2,700 events.
