These players should be bold & publicly support Charlie right now, in his honor. Stop hiding.

Steve Kerr on the election
Kerr: “I believe in democracy. I think the American people have spoken and voted for Trump. I want him to do well the next four years. I want our country to do well.”
Kerr (sarcastically): “I'm just thankful there wasn't any voting fraud this time. Last time, all those illegal immigrants who crashed the border, raped and murdered people and then voted six times, that was unfortunate. But thankfully this time everything was clean. It's great that every election has been really valid except for that last one four years ago. Twinkle in my eye as I say that, in case you didn't see it.”

Gary Cohen,
Why wasn’t it “weird” your team did a moment of silence & refused to play to honor George Floyd, while promoting a Marxist organization (BLM)?
I guess it’s only “weird” when Matt Shaw misses a game to attend his friend, Charlie Kirk’s memorial, at the request of Erika Kirk…
You need to apologize, Gary. Your double standards are egregious & your insensitivity is despicable.

History will prove that Lebron’s Era was not dominated by him. It was dominated by Steph Curry.
Steph has stayed loyal to one team, made his teammates better and done WAY more with less. He has changed the game more than LeBron could have ever dreamed of.
LeBron has hopped around from team to team & tried his best to team up with as many all-stars & future HOFs as possible. He’s blamed playoff failures on many of his coaches he helped get fired. His style of play (mostly his flopping & super team building) has hurt the overall product. The nepotism leading to his son, Bronny, getting drafted will not age well either.
Steph Curry even outshined LeBron in the Olympics.
While LeBron will always be a basketball legend, and deserves respect for his on the court accomplishments, he’ll never be remembered as the best player of his era.

WNBA players need to realize:
- The only reason the WNBA is relevant is because of Caitlin Clark
- There’s a difference between competitiveness and unsportsmanlike conduct.
- Jealousy of Caitlin Clark will continue to force fans to dislike them and tune out.
- If Caitlin Clark wasn’t in the league, millions of sports fans like myself wouldn’t be interested in watching the games.
- Clark is the hand that is feeding them. They’re making more money and able to fly charter because of her.
WNBA players, you don’t have to like Caitlin Clark but you have to respect the opportunities she’s introduced for individual players and the league as a whole. Be grateful.

Ashely St. Clair is just another example of how promoting “traditional family values” is all a grift.
This woman has been seen as a “leader” among conservative influencers?! Really?
We don’t need to shame her through the streets, but this IS NOT conservative or based. Call it what it is, a selfish decision by both Elon & Ashley, leading to a baby out of wedlock that will unfortunately grow up without a father in the home, like tens of thousands of other kids. This is awful.
What happened to “I just want a husband, two kids, and a small farm”? 🤷♂️ Oh, that’s right, it was all a grift, like many females, claiming to be Christian and/or conservative spew for clicks, follows, influence & hook-ups…

This interview was unprofessional & lacked journalistic integrity.
When you start with “Your offense has struggled” & finishes with “You need to change what you’re doing”, any coach would be upset/feel disrespected.
Ben Johnson did nothing wrong.

I’m hearing from a credible source that President Trump is well aware that Paula White has been trending all day on X and that the response to him appointing her the head of the White House Faith Office is receiving a TON of negative backlash.
Pray that Trump receives wise, Biblical counsel and does the right thing by firing & disassociating from her.
False teachers should be nowhere near the White House and should never be in a highly-regarded position of advising him on matters of the Christian faith.
