How bad do you have to be to draw the ire of a children's songs writer?

If you're the current President of the United States, Donald Trump, the answer is "Exactly as bad as you are."


Raffi Cavoukian, a musician best known for children's songs like "Baby Beluga", "Bananaphone" and "Down by the Bay" has been an outspoken critic of the current administration.


And he has no plans to stop.






Cavoukian said in an interview with Fatherly:

"You know, I keep my voice in the public sphere to social media these days. I don't politicize my concerts and I don't even think of myself as an activist,"


"But, if you care about democracy, if you care about a free society, if you care about fair elections, how can you not get involved these days?"

The singer is very active on social media, especially Twitter, where he takes the time to criticize the current administration. Sometimes he's more subtle, but often he will say exactly what he feels.

And it's pretty great seeing someone take a stand.




Raffi, as the mononymous singer is known, was born in Egypt to Armenian parents. He emigrated to Canada in 1958. Throughout the 1970s, '80s, and '90s he became a very popular writer and performer of children's songs.

The entertainer has started his own funds and charities to promote the welfare of children. Raffi calls for a child's right to grow up without being commercially exploited and has turned down projects and contracts because of the exploitative nature behind the funding.

Think we could convince him to sing his tweets?





Raffi is not likely to stop any time soon. He feels it is in the country's best interest to resist this administration as much as possible. As he was quoted saying:

"You have to fight fascism with everything you've got."

In the meantime, you can also get into the holiday spirit with Raffi's Christmas album. Buy it here.

Texas Conservatives Are Up In Arms After Receiving Pamphlets For Trans Teens—Except Republicans Are Behind It All

Texas Republicans have lashed out after receiving pamphlets for transgender teenagers about gender-affirming care even though the pamphlets' origins show that the call is very much coming from inside the house.

Although the pamphlets distributed at the start of Texas’s early voting period claim to come from the Transgender Education Network of Texas (TENT), a legitimate organization, the materials are fraudulent, the group has confirmed.

George Santos Just Threw His Hat In The Ring For White House Press Secretary—And The Reactions Are Priceless

Disgraced former New York Republican Representative George Santos was widely mocked after he threw his name in the mix to replace former White House Press Secretary Katie Zacharia, who was fired after just five days on the job.

Santos, whose political career was derailed by allegations of fabricating his background, misusing campaign funds for luxury items and Botox, and leaving a trail of victims behind him as a known fraud and identity thief, has been soapboxing significantly since President Donald Trump commuted his prison sentence in October 2025.
