GameOva Reedy Facing Child Desertion Charges In Louisiana

Y’all remember New Orleans rapper GameOva Reedy, right? She started the infamous #ForTheD challenge that had celebrities like Cardi B, Sanaa Lathan, Issa Rae, and MORE letting the world know how far they would go for that di**.

Now 27-year-old Reedy, born Reiona Oliver, is in some trouble after she allegedly attempted to send her 5-year-old son to school in a Lyft alone.

From Page Six:

Reiona Oliver, 27, was arrested Tuesday on child desertion charges in Louisiana after putting her 5-year-old son in a car that picked him up in Chalmette. She then told the driver to take the boy to school in New Orleans, roughly 8 miles away, according to the St. Bernard Parish Sheriff’s Office.

Oliver, who is better known as “GameOva Reedy,” told the driver that she wouldn’t be accompanying her son on the ride and then went back inside the Chalmette residence and did not return, the driver told deputies.

But instead of dropping the boy off at school, the driver took the 5-year-old to a sheriff’s substation in Arabi, telling deputies that he just told a woman who had summoned a ride that he could not transport the minor without being accompanied by an adult.

Oliver was later taken into custody at the St. Bernard Parish Prison. She was also wanted on two outstanding traffic warrants in Jefferson Parish, deputies said.

In an alleged video that has purportedly been deleted, Reedy took to Instagram to say that she wasn’t feeling well, thought it wasn’t a problem, and the driver said OK. Photos of Reedy here and her mugshot here.

This week in politics, the vibes are messy, alarming, and straight-up confusing. From late night TV being snatched off the air to vaccine policies getting hijacked, it’s giving “WTF is going on?” Let’s break down the headlines everyone’s talking about inside. First Amendment on the Chopping Block Jimmy Kimmel’s late night show has been pulled from ABC, and Stephen Colbert’s show? Cancelled completely. The official line is murky, but the bigger picture is loud. Free speech is being tested under the Trump administration. While Trump once said he’d “honor” the First Amendment, recent moves suggest he’s working off a remix version that only benefits him. Case in point? The Guardian reports his $15 billion lawsuit against The New York Times. A judge already tossed it out, saying Trump’s claims about “false content” violated federal rules. Still, the fact that these lawsuits and cancellations keep happening has people questioning the future of free expression in America. CDC Shake-Up Sparks Health Concerns Meanwhile, over at the CDC, things are getting political fast. Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has basically turned the agency upside down, firing all 17 members of the vaccine advisory committee and replacing them with appointees that include vaccine skeptics. On top of that, the CDC director is out, high-level staffers are resigning, and decisions about vaccine safety are suddenly more about politics than science. Public health leaders are calling this move dangerous, saying it dismantles independent oversight just when Americans need clarity most. According to California’s government website, they are one of the few states pushing back on the federal government’s stance. California, Washington, and Hawaii aren’t taking it lying down. The states have formed an alliance pushing back on the feds, promising to keep vaccine guidance rooted in science, safety, and transparency. Their health officers are reviewing guidelines from trusted medical groups like the AAP and ACOG to ensure communities still have access to clinically recommended vaccines. Trump & Xi Meet About US TikTok’s Next Chapter And then there’s TikTok. After years of “will they, won’t they?” drama, Trump announced that he and Chinese Premier Xi Jinping approved a deal for TikTok’s U.S. operations.

Trump called the call with Xi “productive” on Truth Social, and even, teased a face-to-face meetup at the APEC summit in South Korea this fall. From free speech battles to vaccine wars and TikTok drama, this week in politics has us all asking the same thing: WTFGO?
