The college athletics governing body may not have the leverage they expected.
There is a mounting controversy in college athletics as the National Collegiate Athletic Association has not only taken a stern position on allowing trans athletes to participate, it is making the bold statement that it intends to enforce punishments against states which may pass laws preventing such participation.
Florida, which is seen as the most likely to currently pass such a law, is not exactly cowering at the veiled threat. It is taking the fight to the NCAA with a new dose of legislation promising its own retribution should such an act play out. Should the NCAA decide to pull championship hosting rights or other events due to a law, then the Florida legislature will see fit to pull tax dollars from going to the organization, or any business entity boycotting the state over the law.
It has been one of the oddest socio-political fights in this country as people take up sides regarding trans athletes in organized sports. How the same groups who loudly tout fairness and equity on behalf of females also forward an agenda that would force biologically advantaged competitors onto female athletics is forever a mystery. To underscore how injurious this can be — and that it is not a bias against the trans athletes specifically — note how there is never an issue with a biological female transitioning to a male who is impacting male athletics.
As a number of states are undertaking legislation to offer support and/or protection to collegiate female athletics the NCAA has been making rumblings that it could take reflexive action against those states taking up any bills on the matter.

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
