@VEtFeMaLE Agreed. I won't even get the blue check because that's not why I'm here. I want the news and unslanted honest views and opinions from people that I can trust.
An Open Letter to WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert
Dear Commissioner Engelbert,
This is no longer incompetence.
This is negligence.
You were handed the greatest gift the WNBA has ever received, and you are finding new ways to squander it.
For nearly 30 years, the WNBA has struggled to stand on its own merit. It has needed patience, protection, subsidies, excuses, advocacy, and endless goodwill. The league has been treated less like a professional sports product and more like a cause people were expected to support out of obligation.
Then Caitlin Clark arrived.
She was not just a star.
She was the lottery ticket.
She brought the audience. She brought the ratings. She brought the sold-out arenas. She brought fathers and daughters. She brought casual fans. She brought sponsors, road crowds, national television attention, and cultural relevance the WNBA had been chasing for decades.
She made people care.
And under your leadership, the WNBA has responded by acting uncomfortable with the very thing it begged the sports world to give it.
That is the failure.
You are not just mishandling Caitlin Clark.
You are mishandling the future of the league.
The WNBA wants her ratings but not her reality.
It wants her ticket sales but not her protection.
It wants her relevance but not her responsibility.
It wants the money she brings while acting annoyed by the fans she brought with her.
That is not leadership.
That is doubling down on stupid.
Let’s be very clear about what just happened.
A player made reckless, non-basketball contact to Caitlin Clark’s throat area while she was vulnerable on the floor.
The throat is not a shoulder.
It is not a hip.
It is not a forearm.
It is the airway. The larynx. The trachea. The structures that allow a person to breathe, speak, swallow, and get oxygen.
Contact to that area can become a medical emergency fast.
The WNBA got lucky.
That is the sentence.
The WNBA got lucky Caitlin Clark got up.
Because if that contact had caused a serious airway injury, a breathing emergency, a collapse, or something worse, nobody would be talking about “physicality” today.
They would be talking about how everyone saw this coming.
And they would be right.
You should have known better.
The league should have known better.
The officials should have known better.
The players should have known better.
The coaches should have known better.
And you, Commissioner, should have acted like the person responsible for making sure it never gets to that point.
Instead, the league reviewed the play, admitted enough to upgrade it, called it reckless, called it a non-basketball act, and responded with one game and a $1,000 fine.
One game.
For contact to the throat area of the most important player in your league.
That was an insult.
That was the WNBA admitting the act was dangerous, then punishing it like it was an inconvenience.
You did not send a message that player safety matters.
You sent a message that the WNBA will wait until something catastrophic happens before it grows a spine.
And if that day comes, the liability will not arrive quietly.
It will come with a very large “we told you so” attached to it.
Because fans have been telling you.
Basketball people have been telling you.
The video has been telling you.
The pattern has been telling you.
Caitlin Clark has been grabbed, bumped, shoved, poked, face-guarded, knocked down, crowded, tested, and hit while your league keeps hiding behind the word “physicality.”
Physicality is basketball.
Reckless contact is not.
Cheap shots are not.
A fist to the throat area is not.
And every time your league responds weakly, every time your officials miss it, every time your media partners minimize it, every time players mock the outrage, and every time your office stays too quiet, you are teaching the league exactly what it can get away with.
That is how standards collapse.
That is how trust dies.
That is how lawsuits are born.
You have an obligation to protect the players in your league.
Not just the players who fit the league’s preferred identity.
Not just the players the old guard approves of.
Not just the players whose fame makes everyone comfortable.
All of them.
Especially the player who has done more to grow the WNBA than anyone in its history.
This is not about Caitlin Clark needing special treatment.
This is about Caitlin Clark not receiving basic protection.
That distinction matters.
The WNBA does not protect stars because they are fragile.
Serious leagues protect stars because the product matters, player safety matters, and the future of the business matters.
The NBA understood this.
The NFL understands this.
Major sports leagues understand that when a generational athlete changes the economics of the sport, you do not allow resentment, weak officiating, cheap shots, and petty narratives to swallow the opportunity.
You are not protecting the game.
You are managing optics.
And you are not even doing that well.
The commissioner’s job is not to hide until the storm passes.
The commissioner’s job is to lead before the storm becomes a disaster.
Right now, the WNBA looks small, bitter, reactive, and unserious.
That is on you.
The officiating looks unprepared for the moment.
That is on you.
The discipline looks weak.
That is on you.
The league’s biggest star looks isolated.
That is on you.
The media narrative around Caitlin Clark has been allowed to become poisonous, dishonest, and dismissive.
That is on you.
The WNBA was handed the golden opportunity women’s basketball had been waiting on for decades, and instead of building around it with urgency, gratitude, and professionalism, the league keeps acting like Caitlin Clark is a problem it has to survive.
She is not the problem.
She is the proof of concept.
She proved the audience exists.
She proved the money is real.
She proved people will watch.
She proved women’s basketball can be mainstream, debated, emotional, commercial, and fun.
And your league is proving it may not be mature enough to handle what she proved.
That is the brutal truth.
Commissioner Engelbert, you are now on notice.
Not as a legal phrase.
As a public one.
The whole sports world can see this.
If Caitlin Clark gets seriously hurt because your league refused to establish a real standard, nobody gets to act surprised.
Nobody gets to pretend this came out of nowhere.
Nobody gets to say the warning signs were not there.
They are everywhere.
Fix the officiating.
Punish dangerous conduct like it is actually dangerous.
Stop letting players disguise reckless behavior as toughness.
Stop letting media voices gaslight fans who know exactly what they are watching.
Stop treating Caitlin Clark’s fanbase like a nuisance while cashing the checks her attention creates.
Stop hiding behind statements that say nothing.
And stop confusing silence with leadership.
The WNBA spent nearly 30 years asking to be taken seriously.
Caitlin Clark made that possible.
Now you have to decide whether you are going to protect the player who made the league bigger or keep letting the league act like she is the inconvenience.
Because if the WNBA cannot protect Caitlin Clark, it cannot be trusted with the future she brought it.
And if you continue to mishandle this, history will not remember you as the commissioner who inherited the Caitlin Clark era.
It will remember you as the commissioner who wasted it.
Sincerely,
A fan who is tired of watching the WNBA endanger its golden opportunity.
Came for football
Documented my journey
People followed my journey
The American people wanted me to stay
Met the President
Ended up on TV
Now road tripping across America.
What a journey so far and it’s only just getting started!
🚨IMPORTANT/ATTENTION 🚨
This morning a suspicious package arrived at my home addressed to me and my daughter.
Inside was a pack of Goodnites nighttime underwear for girls.
Let me be clear: this is not about diapers.
“Goodnites” is what is said to someone right before they are killed. They used my daughter’s name knowing I am fiercely protective of her. This was done to scare me into silence. It was their last warning.
It was delivered by USPS but not by my normal mail carrier. It was a special delivery.
I immediately contacted the @FBI FBI. By direction of US leadership I have sent all information to them. I have also filed a police report with my local authorities who are now in possession of the package.
Come for me. Fine.
Come for my daughter?
Now you will be found and the full weight of the law will be brought upon you.
JUST NOW: President Trump has made a promise to America: he will not allow a communist Mayor to DESTR0Y Washington DC
I VOTED FOR THIS. AMEN 🙏
After 3 days under the rubble in Venezuela, rescue teams from El Salvador just pulled this 15-year-old girl and her dog out alive.
I have to say: I truly didn't expect Texas Democrats to just come out and say that all of them are "transgender tofu-eating vegans bound for hell."

I NEVER POST PHOTOS OF ANY OF MY CHILDREN... BUT THIS TIME THE WORLD NEEDS TO SEE HER BEAUTIFUL FACE...
THIS PAST FRIDAY WAS SUPPOSED TO BE MY DAUGHTER’S HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION.
She worked hard her entire life for that moment. She earned every grade, met every challenge, and dreamed of walking across that stage with the friends she grew up with.
Instead, our family made the heartbreaking decision to pull her from school because New York State demanded one more MenACWY booster that neither WE nor her physicians believed was necessary for her specific circumstances.
She didn’t get to walk up to receive her diploma. She didn’t celebrate with her class. She stayed home grieving a milestone she can never get back. My wife is devastated. Our entire family is. That pain doesn’t just disappear.
My daughter is a faith-driven Christian young woman living a healthy, low-risk lifestyle. No smoking. No drinking. No high-risk behaviors. She had already received prior MenACWY doses. Yet the state applied a rigid, one-size-fits-all mandate with no meaningful consideration of her individual circumstances, her medical history, or our family’s beliefs.
What makes this even harder to accept is that the rules changed midstream.
The school initially informed us that titers (blood tests demonstrating immunity) would be accepted. We scheduled the appointment. Then, after communications between school officials, nurses, and the health department, we were told that titers would no longer be accepted.
We have retained the documentation. Shortly thereafter, our daughter was excluded. This wasn’t an abstract policy. This was our daughter losing a once-in-a-lifetime milestone.
Meningococcal disease is rare. We respect public health goals, and we understand that reasonable people can disagree about vaccine policy. But we cannot accept a system with no flexibility, no individualized review, and no compassion for families making informed decisions.
We are pro-parental rights, pro-informed consent, and pro-individual risk assessment. This is not our family’s first experience with inflexible state policies. During COVID, we navigated years of disruption and uncertainty. Now we face the possibility of reliving the same experience with our next senior, another child potentially denied a normal senior year.
My daughter lost more than a ceremony. She lost closure. She lost memories. She lost the celebration she earned after a childhood of hard work.
Yesterday, several of her childhood friends came to our home because they knew how much she was hurting. They wanted her to know that she was loved, supported, and not forgotten. Their kindness lit up her day while breaking ours because she should have been celebrating alongside them.
Governor Kathy Hochul and Commissioner Dr. James V. McDonald: our family has been hurt enough.
We respectfully request:
1Full recognition of our daughter’s academic accomplishments and confirmation that she has met all graduation requirements.
2A formal review of the circumstances surrounding the reversal of the titer accommodation.
3A comprehensive review of New York’s grade 12 MenACWY booster policy, including meaningful flexibility for students with documented prior vaccination and low individual risk.
4Clear statewide guidance to ensure consistent and fair treatment of families.
5Support for students and families who have suffered educational and emotional harm due to rigid enforcement policies.
Please respond in writing.
To every parent in New York: if this story resonates with you, share it.
Contact your legislators.
Demand policies that treat children as individuals, not statistics, and families as partners, not obstacles.
Our children deserve both safety and compassion.
My daughter deserved to walk up and receive her diploma.
She never got that chance because of a policy decision.
We will never forget it

🚨 WOW! President Trump just confirmed it: He’s pushing for 10 YEARS IN PRISON for leftist vandals who attack our monuments in DC
FAFO! 🔥
TRUMP: “This is what happens to people who desecrate, or even think about desecrating, our Great Monuments, Statues, or Fountains!” 🇺🇸
Death Penalty
Nothing less
BREAKING: French patriots are demanding justice for Louis, a 17-year-old who was murdered by a migrant gang
They filmed themselves stomping on his head
The people have had enough!!!
The children of invading armies aren't considered American citizens.
The children of foreign diplomats aren't considered American citizens
So, why would we allow the children of illegal aliens to be American citizens?
Nothing screams TRUE SOCIALIST like:
-A millionaire who owns 3 homes
-Arriving in a huge SUV
-To his private jet
-To fly out and give a paid speech
-On the evils of capitalism and fossil fuels
Am I right?
Arnold and Joanne De Jong, 77 and 76, trusted Abhijeet Singh, Gurkaran Singh and Khushveer Singh — three Indian immigrants — to work on their property in Abbotsford, B.C. Canada.
Those animals repaid them by wrapping Arnold’s head in duct tape until he suffocated, then beating Joanne to death with a baseball bat and slashing her throat.
Brutal, premeditated execution of Canadian parents & grandparents in their own home.
And now the killers are filing ‘constitutional challenges’ so they don’t have to serve full life sentences.
Because in Canada, the real victims are the murderers who might miss out on parole.
This isn’t justice. This is a sick, suicidal nation importing its own demise and then bending over to protect savages. Perhaps real justice in this case would be to deport these murderers in body bags.
From the article:
“News that one of the killers is trying to spend fewer years behind bars has left the De Jongs’ daughters furious.
“Our parents were tortured, they were murdered,” Sandra Barthel said.
“I’m sure our parents begged for mercy and we’re not shown that, and yet the irony of a faint hope clause in this case in which they can get released from jail, possibly after 15 years, just does not seem just to us.”
His name is Frank Gervasi.
He lives in East Patchogue, on Long Island.
When his daughter disappeared, everything else in his life stopped mattering.
There was only one mission left.
Find Emmarae.
Frank knew his daughter had been through difficult years.
She had endured childhood trauma.
She had struggled with addiction.
But she was working to rebuild her life, and those closest to her believed she was moving in the right direction.
Then she vanished.
Suffolk County police opened an investigation.
Search teams mobilized.
Helicopters flew overhead.
K-9 units searched the area.
Frank appreciated every effort.
But he couldn't bring himself to wait.
On the very first day, he climbed into his car and started driving the roads of Long Island himself.
He flooded social media with missing-person posts.
He answered calls from strangers.
He followed every lead, no matter how small.
Because he believed every hour mattered.
The day after Emmarae disappeared, surveillance cameras at a motel in Bohemia captured her knocking on doors before walking out of view.
The footage suggested she was in distress.
For Frank, it meant one thing.
She was still out there.
He offered a $15,000 reward for information that would bring her home.
Days turned into weeks.
The tips never stopped coming.
Some led nowhere.
Others consumed precious hours.
Still, he chased every one.
At one point, he answered the phone and heard a voice that sounded like his daughter's saying, "I love you."
Later, Frank said he believed cruel online trolls had targeted the family during the search.
Even that didn't stop him.
He kept driving.
He kept posting.
He kept answering every call.
On the twenty-fifth day, Frank recorded a video addressed directly to his daughter.
"Emma, if you hear this," he said, "we love you very much. We miss you, and we want you to come home."
What many people didn't see was the routine he repeated every single day.
Wake up.
Search.
Follow another lead.
Drive another road.
Make another phone call.
He wasn't trying to replace the work of investigators or volunteers.
He simply couldn't imagine doing anything else.
Then came one more tip.
An anonymous caller told Frank she had seen a young woman matching Emmarae's description aboard a large boat docked at White Cap Marina in Islip.
The caller even described her tattoos.
Frank didn't ignore the lead.
He drove there himself.
He found the vessel.
According to his public account, he forced his way onto the boat.
Inside...
He found Emmarae alive.
On January 3, 2025, Frank posted three simple words on Facebook.
"I found Emma."
In a video shared afterward, he described the moment.
"The phone call that I received was that she was on a boat in Islip," he said. "I followed it up on my own... I recovered my daughter. She has been saved and is alive."
Asked what made the difference, his answer was short.
"Persistency."
Soon afterward, authorities arrested 65-year-old Francis Buckheit in connection with Emmarae's disappearance.
When Emmarae's mother, Melissa Dervay, heard her daughter's voice again, she described the feeling simply.
"I feel light."
"I just want to scream, 'She's OK. She's been found.'"
For Frank, the moment defied words.
"It was a gift from God," he said. "I can't describe the feeling I had when I grabbed her."
Every missing-person case is different.
Not every family receives this ending.
But for twenty-six days, one father refused to stop searching.
He answered every phone call.
He followed every lead.
He drove every mile he thought might matter.
And on the twenty-sixth day...
He brought his daughter home.
Never, ever leave your loved ones alone in a hospital.
At the Rapid City airport heading back to DC
& more folks are positively coming up to me.
They can’t believe that I was denied entry from the dinner
& I asked them to vote in the South Dakota gubernatorial runoff on Tuesday, July 28th.
Video reached a lot of South Dakotans.
What's going on in Europe???
A French woman was on her regular jogging route in a park when an attacker ordered her to take off her clothes.
When she refused, she was stabbed.
The attacker was found and he is a 14 year old that arrived with his father from Congo last year.
He is now being charged with attempted m*rder and attempted r*pe.
