They booed during the national anthem.
Not after.
Not before.
During.
The President of the United States stood up in Madison Square Garden.
The first sitting president to ever attend an NBA Finals game.
They booed.
Donald Trump came as a guest of the Knicks owner.
A born-and-raised New Yorker.
A Knicks fan since Queens.
They booed.
This is the same league that takes a knee.
The same league whose champions refuse to visit the White House.
The same arena where the cheap seats now decide which Americans count.
In 2024, New York City gave Trump 839,000 votes.
Kamala Harris got 1.9 million.
This wasn't a basketball crowd.
It was a political crowd in basketball jerseys.
The Knicks had won 13 straight playoff games.
The second-longest unbroken playoff streak in NBA history.
The night the President walked in,
the streak died.
Spurs 115. Knicks 111.
There is a word for what happened in that arena.
It isn't free speech.
It's contempt.
Contempt for the office.
Contempt for the flag.
Contempt for the country that lets you sit in those seats.
You can boo a man.
The anthem still plays.
The flag still flies.
America still stands.
But a kid in Kansas was watching last night.
He saw grown men in 400-dollar sneakers
turn the national anthem into a sneer.
He learned exactly what the cities did
the night their team forgot how to win.
People demanding "proof" of election fraud are not understanding how crime works. I worked at Manhattan DA for over 2 years, one in Homicide. We never had video proof of the crime. We almost never had DNA. These are things that occur on CSI on TV, not in real life. And we still convicted people all the time.
What we had was testimony and circumstantial evidence. Travel times, bank records, cell phone data, gate access codes. Motive, capability, benefit, time and place. Never direct proof. Of course the defendant always denied the crime, but there was enough evidence to show that one had to have occurred nonetheless.
If what we have in the LA Mayoral election is a statistical anomaly that is beyond reasonable explanation with anything besides fraud, that is enough to prove a crime. This has been true since the beginning of Western Civlization.
Marco Rubio’s family fled communism in Cuba
Dad = bartender
Mom = maid
First in his family to go to college.
Won a shock election for Senate at 39
Now the best Secretary of State in history!
THAT is the American dream!!
Not sneaking in and living on taxpayers forever!!!
@ego_kingdom You don’t seem to understand my point. Lotteries have known odds. If people were winning consistently at rates that didn’t align with the odds, THAT would be the evidence of fraud. And you better believe the lottery would investigate it.
WE ARE WATCHING CALIFORNIA ELECTION FRAUD IN REAL TIME....
...AND LEADER THUNE SEES ABSOLUTELY NO REASON AT ALL TO PASS THE SAVE ACT
WHAT THE HELL ARE THESE PEOPLE DOING?!!!
THE MIDTERMS ARE COMING UP AND WE WON'T HAVE SECURE ELECTIONS?!!!!!!
WHAT ARE YOU DOING GOP?????????
Sending ballots in the mail to people who moved out of California years ago is corrupt.
Sending ballots in the mail to people who didn’t request one is corrupt.
Sending ballots in the mail to every address someone has lived in for the past 10 years is corrupt.
Letting activists sign up mentally unstable people for a ballot by using phony addresses is corrupt.
Not letting third party law enforcement officials check the voter rolls is corrupt.
Letting one political party control the entire process for decades leads to corruption.
10 years. 10 years. I’ve listened to every Dem & never Trump pundit call Trump, Elon and anyone else who voted Republican a Nazi. And now they line up behind Platner, with an actual Nazi tattoo. Unbelievable.
Election night batches in Los Angeles:
🔵 Karen Bass: 38%
🔴 Spencer Pratt: 28%
🔵 Nithya Raman: 20%
New batch (5 days after the election):
🔵 Nithya Raman: 40%
🔵 Karen Bass: 33%
🔴 Spencer Pratt: 18%
Keep in mind only the top 2 advance to the next round, which is why the third place candidate suddenly surged
Not even hiding it
The reason ID is banned in California (and New York) elections is to enable large-scale fraud.
When you combine no ID and mail-in voting, fraud is de facto legalized.
@fourboxesdiner@AdamSchefter What’s a real surprise is that any business would stay in a high tax blue state.
Stockholders need to stand up for themselves and stop letting the board of directors needlessly waste their money.
