Posted on Jul 07, 2010 @ 01:28PM

A Palin family feud has exploded and now all of it has become public -- and RadarOnline.com has the details.
Levi Johnston has told his sister Mercede Johnston that she can no longer see him or his son Tripp unless she takes down her recently started blog.
EXCLUSIVE: Bristol Palin & Levi Johnston Relationship Thaws
Mercede angered the Palins when she charged that Bristol Palin and Levi were trying to have a baby when they conceived Tripp.
Levi recently publicly apologized to former vice presidential candidate Sarah and her husband Todd – and that apology has riled Mercede, who believes Bristol is controlling her brother.

“I will not allow myself to be controlled by Bristol Palin like my brother is!” Mercede writes in a new entry on her blog, calling her brother a “puppet.”
“Even if I take my blog down and keep my mouth shut Bristol will not allow Levi and Tripp to be a part of my life. She will always have some excuse.”
Mercede writes that during her July 4th holiday she got a message that Levi was cutting her out of his life unless she discontinued her blog.
“I wish Levi could be the man I know he is and have a mind of his own and finally stand his ground, but I guess he is blinded by love,” Mercede writes, confirming that Tripp and Bristol are back together.

“How is it fair that I can’t speak my mind on a blog without Levi threatening to never speak to me again, but Bristol can go on Facebook daily and call me nasty names with no repercussions at all?”
Mercede makes it clear that she still loves Levi and Tripp, and believes they will be back in her life one day. But when the subject is Bristol, love is not the emotion that Mercede expresses.

“You should know that I don’t respond well to threats,” Mercedes writes, addressing Bristol.
Then she takes aim at her brother: “As for this new People magazine article where my brother “Apologizes to the Palins” I am extremely disappointed in him. Not only is he being controlled like a puppet, but saying that all of his (previous) comments and stories were lies is absurd!

“I know he wasn’t making all that up, why would he have back then? I am very disappointed that he is allowing them to control him in such a manner.

Yeah for Levi! He's finally throwing off his whitetrash origins and standing up to his druggie mom and sucabus sister.

Mercede Johnston is collecting money$$$$ on her site to keep the site going she says. People are actually giving her their credit card numbers and paying her on pay pal. She is 18 with no job. Is she doing this to make money?

Please. I dont think Levi is being controlled. He is finally acting like a man & trying to be there for his son and the mother of his son. It was obvious all the junk he spouted before was from anger and immaturity.

I wish Jon Gosselin would be this much of a man and demand the hate sites about Kate run by Jodi and all of them be taken down. Bet we won't ever see that though!!!!! Guess Levi is more of a man at his age than Jon will ever be.

Isn't that the truth? What is it with these families where a family member will start a hate blog? What do they accomplish? Nothing, absolutely nothing. All those blogs do is spiral the hatred out of control & nothing is going to change.

Unfortunately blogs give cowards a voice. I commend Levi. He's doing the right thing by his son, and his son's family. You go Levi!!!

Without a doubt he is doing the right thing. I never thought he would have a sense of honor but he just proved he does. Bravo to him. The title sure was misleading.

Wouldn't a more appropriate article title be "Johnston Feud Explodes" . Just, you know, because the Palin's aren't really involved? Oh I get it. No one would know who the "Johnston's" are! **rolls eyes**
