If any athlete wants to stick the knife in and twist it, they should say: To be absolutely clear, what troubles me about the federal government right now is that the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation, at the direction and under the control of President Trump, are obviously protecting pedophiles and associates of convicted felons and sex offenders Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell from accountability. Standing against pedophilia, in solidarity with, and desiring justice for victims cannot possibly be considered politically controversial, can it?
In addition to the vitriol (and threats of violence) unleashed against athletes who dare express an opinion, there's the blatant hypocrisy of right-wing politicians and maga influencers who are just as quick to laud those athletes who express a "correct" opinion. The most recent example being an NFL player (whose name escapes me at the moment) who became a maga-media darling because his political opinions were aligned with theirs. He was quickly transformed into the anti-Kelce during the dust-up over Taylor Swift.
usually wouldn't do the typo thing, but you have kind of a big one in the year here: "Ahead of the 2028 Olympics, she answered freely on CNN. In 2026, Fox News Digital asked..."
I'm so angry after reading about politicians and RW talking heads bullying our athletes. That's all they can do is bully and belittle people. Their behavior should be called out. If Mango Mussolini wants to join the Olympics, then go ahead and represent. Otherwise, he and his ilk should sit down and shut their mouths.
I'm tired of one group of people claiming they're the only ones who are real Americans. They're deluded and mentally deranged. Like, I'm sorry they got manipulated and bullied by their families or whatever. Now we ALL have to suffer because of their BS behavior.
"one group of people claiming they're the only ones who are real Americans"
Of course they'll never stop with this shit. And I wouldn't care how much of it they did if the American Voters, in their wisdom, hadn't given this asshole 49.5% of the vote so he could have a second go at fucking up the country because he didn't do enough fucking-up on the first try.
But some day, God willing, the Republican asshole will get a mere 48.5% of the vote and then we can relegate all of these assholes to "Old man yells at clouds" status.
I'm just thinking about how far any of this is from the actual work of managing the government and responding to the needs of the country. This is all they have to fill their days because they're just not interested in doing any kind of useful work.
