Tara Dublin, the unapologetically outspoken American freelance writer, is a force to be reckoned with in the realm of social media and political commentary. With a penchant for stirring up controversy, she proudly boasts being blocked on social media by none other than Donald Trump, his family, and several of his prominent supporters. As a contributing writer for prestigious outlets like The Huffington Post and HillReporter, Dublin fearlessly expresses her opinions on a wide range of topics, especially targeting Republican voters through her expletive-driven “trollslaying” and takedowns on Twitter, where she commands an impressive following of nearly 80,000.

Dublin’s journey into the public eye began in the 2000s when she served as the midday radio host for Portland station KNRK-FM. During this period, she had the opportunity to meet and interview musical luminaries such as Ben Folds and Billy Corgan. Despite facing financial challenges after losing her radio position in 2009, Dublin remained resilient, turning to Twitter, article writing, and even venturing into the world of television as an extra. Notably, she wrote and starred in the cult web series, “The Screenprinters,” which gained popularity during its one-season run in 2016.

In an era dominated by influencers and carefully curated images, Dublin stands out as a refreshing voice, candidly sharing her experiences of taking on second jobs in the service industry to make ends meet. The harsh reality of being a freelance journalist in the 2020s, even with the exposure gained through Twitter, often falls short of paying the bills. Nevertheless, as the pandemic continues to intensify divisions on American social media, Dublin’s growing profile ensures that she remains a prominent figure in the limelight.
