US Women’s Soccer Team Crushed by Sweden After Taking Knee for BLM

 Breitbart Sports   ..."The U.S. sports equivalent of a 3-0 loss in soccer is probably somewhere in the neighborhood of a 45-0 blowout in football or a 10-0 loss in baseball. So, needless to say, this is bad, real bad."

. . . "Interestingly, the USWNT is not the only woke U.S. sports team to faceplant during Olympic or pre-Olympic competition. The U.S. Men’s Basketball Team, many of whom took a knee of proudly displayed social justice messaging on their uniforms over the last year, took two stunning losses to Nigeria and Australia before somewhat righting the ship.

"So, given that pattern of wokeness leading to defeat, maybe it’s time to get off your knees and play ball."

Not all US women were classless before.


U.S. Women’s Soccer Takes a Protest Knee, Gets Trounced by Sweden 
. . . "Sweden joined the American women: “For us it really feels right to stand up for human rights. It was a communication with the U.S. team before, so for us it feels good to do that and it is something we stand for as a team.”

So Sweden did it, too, but the American women have been kneeling and complaining since 2017. Maybe they should pay more attention to their actual game:" . . . 

From the comments to this post:  . . . No, they didn’t. If you read the article you will see that they couldn’t have, because national anthems are not played before games in the Olympics. All the players, and the referee, knelt for about 10 seconds, during “pregame music”, which is not either side’s national anthem. Anthems are played during the award ceremonies, and no protests are allowed."

Pausing a minute to consider the damage leftism does to America

 Andrea Widburg   "Every day, I look for current stories that are interesting and report them here with added facts or commentary.  Today, however, I kept running smack into stories that were too short to qualify for an entire post.  However, I was haunted by the fact that a common thread bound them together — and that thread is the terrible decay America has suffered
since the Chinese unleashed COVID and the Democrats weaponized it.  Biden has accelerated the problems but the craziness appears everywhere Democrats are at work.

Democrat policies in California

"In California, robberies of items worth less than $950 are misdemeanors, not felonies.  Moreover, in both San Francisco and Los Angeles, the prosecutors whom George Soros placed in office will not prosecute crimes.  They exist to protect criminals, not law-abiding citizens.  And that is how you end up with this video:

Artist sprays D-A-D-D-Y on the wall at Hunter Biden's Manhattan art gallery

 Monica Showalter  "How's Hunter Biden's art show, where the spanking new self-taught "artist" and son of the president, miraculously expected to sell his masterpieces at $500,000 a pop? The show is coming in October.

"According to the White House, which crafted a 'deal' to ensure that Hunter himself will have no idea who is buying his paintings as an "ethics" measure, everything's on the up and up.

"But according to the Village Sun, a Manhattan publication, an artist in the vicinity had his own opinion about the matter: . . .


. . . "And it doesn't even matter that the guard tackled him before he got his spraying done (D-A-D-D-Y is just perfect, he didn't need the rest of the message actually) and probably painted over the message. The film is made. The performance art is done. The word is out." . . .
