The WNBA Is Basically a Hate Group

Nobody is less motivated to watch a WNBA game than I am. In fact, the only WNBA action that I have ever seen is clips on X that I scroll by, mostly without watching. But even I know who Caitlin Clark is and why she is so popular among basketball fans. She is the person who put the WNBA on the map, whose jersey sales, along with her now-famous teammate Sophie Cunningham, outsell those of every other WNBA player combined by a whopping 2-1 margin. In case you didn't know, Cunningham is the woman in the now-viral meme template: Both Clark and Cunningham are absolutely despised

I'd like to see Caitlin find a good job outside of basketball and leave the WNBA to wither. They don't deserve her.

I watch the WNBA. You can watch for free. There are some very good players, and the league gets better every year. Over the decades, the men have gotten larger, and so have the women, who are now as big as the men in the 1950's. The officials eyes follow the ball, and all kinds of things happen outside of their vision. The officials cannot stop play for instant replay on every issue, while the fans review the same play in slow motion, over and over. The league is taking the right approach by issuing discipline, after the game and replay review, for blatant bad behavior. If the officials call too many fouls, fans complain they are not letting them play. If the officials call too few fouls, the fans complain that they didn't call a foul. For the tv audience, officials don't slow the game down too often, as they would lose their audience. Stopping minutes for foul line shooting is not exciting. The sportswriters are horrible, having written for weeks of the fist in the throat replay, when most of them didn't watch the game, and frankly don't watch the WNBA, as this author admits in his first sentences.

Clark is WHY the WNBA has a new TV contract and why salaries have markedly risen. I understood why she was attacked as a rookie but the failure of the league to protect her now is foolish. Blacks and alphabet perverts apparently continue to rule the roost. Jealousy - just idiotic and stupid jealousy, though that does not explain referees and league officials letting matters continue at the risk of her and the league's health\.

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump has issued his first public statement after the Supreme Court on Tuesday overturned his executive order restricting birthright citizenship. The president said the Supreme Court’s decision upholding that anyone born in the United States automatically becomes an American citizen was “too bad for our Country," but that Congress could “easily” address it with legislation. Trump declared that “No long and unwieldy Constitutional Amendment is necessary!” However, the Supreme Court’s ruling Tuesday makes it clear that it would be necessary to amend the Constitution.

What a can of frickin' worms SCOTUS opened up today with that birthright decision. I mean, God bless the president for being magnanimous - if ever you expected him to blow, it would have been that one. Guy's full of surprises and even sometimes springs them at the most opportune moment. But the decision has opened a Pandora's box of 'What are we gonna do NOW, George?' speculation that's some part fantasy and some parts that have you thinking, 'There may be something to that...' ...You don’t need to worry about waiting in line, assimilating or learning English.

The Supreme Court ruled on Tuesday in a 6-3 decision that federal limits on how much political parties can spend in coordination with their candidates violate the First Amendment, delivering a major victory for free speech and party operations and for Republicans. It should have an impact on the 2026 midterm elections. In National Republican Senatorial Committee v. FEC, the justices overturned the 2001 Colorado II precedent, clearing the way for unlimited coordinated spending by parties. The ruling is expected to reshape the 2026 midterm battlefield by empowering official party committees over super PACs.

WASHINGTON – States can ban transgender women and girls from competing on female sports teams, the Supreme Court ruled June 30 in addressing a major cultural and political flashpoint before adjourning for the summer. The decision is another setback for the LGBTQ+ community from the high court, which has issued a series of recent rulings against transgender Americans. The court said West Virginia's and Idaho’s bans on female transgender athletes do not violate either the Constitution or a federal law barring sex discrimination in education.

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Tuesday blocked President Donald Trump’s contentious attempt to limit citizenship at birth for those born on U.S. soil, delivering a major blow to his agenda. The court, divided 6-3, ruled that the executive order Trump issued Jan. 20, 2025, the first day of his second term, was unlawful. Five justices said the order fell foul of the Constitution’s 14th Amendment, which has long been interpreted to bestow birthright citizenship on almost anyone born in the United States.

Kyiv — Once Russian soldiers reach certain parts of the front lines of the war in Ukraine, they can expect to live an average of just 20 to 35 minutes, according to a grim estimate by Russian military bloggers, cited by Oxford historian Peter Frankopan in a Foreign Policy report. CBS News has not independently verified the claim. But similar accounts are becoming increasingly common on Russian military channels, suggesting that more Russians are becoming aware of the war and its toll on their side — a toll Kremlin officials have long sought to shield from view. The war has inflicted staggering losses on Russia's young men.

The U.S. and Iran have agreed to “stand down for now” and allow ships to pass through the Strait of Hormuz after renewed fighting in the past few days, a U.S. official told The Hill on Sunday. “Technical talks are slated to continue on all areas of the MOU. Both sides will stand down for now and vessels can move freely,” the official said, referring to the memorandum of understanding signed by both sides earlier this month. The war against Iran, which started four months ago on Sunday, has stressed the global economy, raised gas prices in the U.S. and strained America’s relations with Israel and traditional European allies.

The Southern United States is growing population-wise at break-neck speed, while other areas have not experienced such a boom. Every age group in the southern portion of the country grew faster than any other region over the course of several years, Vintage 2025 estimates showed, per the U.S. Census Bureau’s announcement Thursday: New data released today for all counties in the United States and Puerto Rico provide a closer look at what age groups were driving the growth of U.S. counties across different stages of life: childhood (0-17), young adulthood and higher education (18-24), early work and family-building years (25-44), midlife (45-64), and retirement (65 and older).

Even in deep blue Maryland, the five county sheriffs who backed ICE, then sued the state to allow them to cooperate with federal officials, and ultimately ran for reelection on strict enforcement of immigration won their GOP primaries this week, according to poll results. Each of these sheriffs faced challengers who ran as soft on crime and immigration but won despite political opposition to their immigration policy stances, according to the Baltimore Sun. The Sheriffs who won their primaries include Harford County’s Jeff Gahler, Carroll County’s James T. “Jim” DeWees, Worcester County’s Matthew Crisafulli, Wicomico County’s Mike Lewis and Frederick County’s Chuck Jenkins.

truism of leftist revolutions is that the Old Guard is never sufficiently pure for the younger generation that it trained. More scarily, the younger generation is usually willing to engage in mass slaughter to carry on the pure form of the revolution, whether with or without the help of select Old Guard members willing to save their own skin by embracing the slaughter. Right now, we’re witnessing a few in the Democrat Old Guard who suddenly feel the revolution’s claws scraping at their jugulars. We can only hope that normal Americans stop the madness before the blood really flows.

SCOTUS Rules 5-4 to Permit Counting of
Mail-In Ballots that Arrive After Election Day

The Supreme Court (SCOTUS) ruled that state laws allowing for the counting of mail-in ballots after election day are not in violation of federal law, a blow to the Republican National Committee and President Donald Trump’s administration. On Monday, SCOTUS issued a 5-4 ruling that permits states to count mail-in ballots — sent on or before election day — that are received by state election officials after election day. Justice Amy Coney Barrett wrote the majority’s opinion, joined by Chief Justice John Roberts as well as Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, and Ketanji Brown Jackson.

5-4 Ruling That Killed It

Monday’s bombshell Supreme Court ruling established that “election day” isn’t really election day at all; it’s a period of time. Specifically, the court decided 5-4 in Watson v. RNC that states could count mail-in ballots even if they were received after the election date, as long as they were postmarked in time. Naturally, many conservatives, including President Trump, were deeply disappointed by the decision, which to many seemed to defy common sense and the notion of election integrity. California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) and his ilk were almost certainly cheering; after all, they still haven’t certified the governor’s primary, which was held on June 2. A clown show.

A Paris politician blamed Americans and US air conditioning for the record-breaking heatwave in Europe that has resulted in more than 1,300 excess deaths. After US tourists mocked France over the lack of air conditioning across the country amid 104 degree temperatures, Audrey Pulvar, deputy mayor of Paris for international relations, claimed the situation was partly America’s fault. “Dear American journalists and social media ‘influencers’: for days, some of you have been criticizing and making fun of Paris because the city does not have A/C in every room…OMG, this is so rich!” Pulvar wrote on social media. “As the second-largest emitter of greenhouse gas emissions in the world,

The Supreme Court on Monday declined to take up President Trump’s appeal of the $5 million sexual abuse and defamation verdict that followed a lawsuit by former advice columnist E. Jean Carroll. Now Trump will have no choice but to pony up the $5 million to the 82-year-old, who has repeatedly claimed that the president sexually assaulted her in a Bergdorf Goodman fitting room during the mid-1990s. Trump’s lawyers argued that, as president, he should not be distracted from his executive duties in order to deal with “decades-old, false allegations.”

Just as his party is overrun by communist revolutionaries, Barack Obama has decided to take center stage in a frenetic public relations campaign, ostensibly to promote his so-called library. He’s here, there and everywhere, silkily opining about everything under the sun, except the only thing that matters: the disintegration of his party. Like Nero playing the fiddle while Rome burned, Obama is curiously detached from the disaster he helped create. Democrats desperately need a leader to rally around, but all they have is Obama. He is the only former Democratic president who is still sharp, charismatic and dynamic enough to take up the mantle.

We're headed into the dog days of summer, so it's not surprising that the topic of air conditioning is on the minds of many Americans these days. A heatwave has been pummeling much of Europe for the past week, and the East Coast of the United States is about to be placed firmly under a "heat dome," with temperatures expected to climb into the 100s later this week in Virginia and North Carolina. Our ACs will be humming, to be sure, along with the usual warnings of possible "rolling brownouts" to keep the power grids operational during the surge in usage. And no one is loving our temperature-controlled houses, more

The United States and Iran will reportedly "stand down for now” after a weekend of military skirmishes in the Strait of Hormuz, and both sides will try to reboot peace talks in Qatar this week. Officials told multiple news outlets, including Axios, CNN and Fox News, that there was an easing of tensions after several days of exchanging fire near the Strait. “Technical talks are slated to continue on all areas of the MOU. Both sides will stand down for now and vessels can move freely," the White House told Fox News. Axios reported that the two sides will resume talks in Doha on Tuesday.

The Supreme Court announced its final opinions of the term today, covering some of the most high-profile issues of the term. BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP: The court rejected President Donald Trump's executive order ending citizenship at birth for people born on U.S. soil. The court ruled that the executive order ran foul of the Constitution’s 14th Amendment, which has long been interpreted to bestow birthright citizenship on almost anyone born in the United States. TRANSGENDER ATHLETES: The high court, in a ruling that combined two cases, upheld state laws that ban transgender athletes from participating in girls’ and women’s sports. Two student athletes in West Virginia and Idaho sued to overturn the bans.

For the last decade, legacy news outlets have produced endless handwringing over the rise of President Trump and “MAGA-aligned” Republicans. And what some have called a “hostile takeover” of the Republican Party has indeed been a problem, arguably turning the party into a personality cult. But at least it has been acknowledged. The radical progressive and socialist takeover of the Democratic Party poses an equal, if not greater, problem. But one would hardly know it, given our media’s selective sense of urgency. The last three years have seen a flurry of activity both inside and outside the political space, suggesting

Congressional conservatives are slamming the Supreme Court of the United States after it ruled to strike down a request from the president to redefine birthright citizenship. The 6-3 decision comes after President Donald Trump’s administration argued that the birthright citizenship clause of the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution applied to descendants of slaves in the 1800s, and not to the chain migration the United States has been subject to in recent decades. Chief Justice John Roberts delivered the opinion of the Court, joined by Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, Amy Coney Barrett, and Ketanji Brown Jackson. Brett Kavanaugh concurs in part in the judgment and dissents in part.
