Pretty simple. The right is constantly inventing totally crazy scenarios of gotcha moments that won’t happen to create a sense of hysteria.

Here are the facts:
— A trans woman has never played in the WNBA. In 30 years.

— Trans women are barred from competing in women’s sports in the NCAA and the Olympics.

— 29 states have banned trans girls participation in women’s sports K-12.

— The Supreme Court ruled states can exclude trans girls from participating in women’s sports.

Y’all won. Y’all got it. So why is the right still crying and whining about an argument that is backed by law and policy at virtually every level?

Wait, I have an answer. They want to erase trans existence period and no amount of exclusion, degradation, or denigration will ever be good enough for them.

SO they create these dumb, illogical, stupid-ass scenarios because there actually isn’t enough there for them to make a salient point. It’s fear-mongering bullshit that is designed to create a hostile environment for trans people. It’s weak.

Happy Fourth of July!

Today is also the 47th anniversary of the daring Entebbe raid. I was only 5 at the time, but I remember being inspired by the amazing courage of the @IDF team that rescued the hostages & killed the terrorists.

I thought, “that’s a very Texan foreign policy.”

A word about the so-called snicko graph that “proved” croatia striker matanovic touched the ball.

Darren Cann (referee decisions commentator on the BBC and, unfortunately for him, one of the least convincing men ever to see a microphone) said he was “100% certain” there was a touch that caused pasalic to be offside.

He based that certainty on “snicko” technology as this proved the touch.

This is what referee and VAR used to rule out the goal.

But even if you think snicko is a good idea (I don’t) there’s a massive problem with the snicko graph.

IT’S DOESN’T LINE UP WITH THE PICTURES!

Snicko shows one spike and we’re asked to believe that was the matanovic touch.

But there are 4 or 5 touches on the ball in a few seconds (the cross - matanovic? - portugal defender veiga - croatia’s pasalic - then gvardiol scoring).

Snicko shows one?

They have to show a graph where all five touches (if there are five) are represented and where the graph spikes line up perfectly with the footage.

That would remove all doubt.

The way it was presented makes no sense and looks corrupt to the core.

Then Jesus said unto the sick, “you better have insurance.”

Then Jesus said unto the stranger, “are you here legally?”

Then Jesus said unto the hungry, “my taxes better not be paying for these loaves and fishes.”

Then Jesus said unto the poor, “this is your own fault.”

LAPD shot & killed Jameson, the dog wearing a Knicks jersey.

LAPD has a $3.6 BILLION BUDGET to support/maintain 8,555 officers. It’s the MOST DIFFICULT department to hold accountable because City Hall lacks political will.

This can change via CHARTER REFORM & the NOV ELECTION‼️

This happened on May 1 and is being pushed out the day after LAPD shot and killed a golden doodle in Canoga Park. How strange.

This is the ego and insecurities of a wannabe dictator. Every KNOWS the name is coming down but he doesn’t want anyone to be able to witness or record it. What a fucking loser.

[Jim Acosta @Acosta]

Trump’s team BS’d a judge last night in asking for time to remove Trump’s name from the Kennedy Center. It was a delay tactic so the scaffolding and tarp could be ready in the wee hours to block the public’s view of the removal. Once the tarp was up the name came down in minutes.
