AP Photo/Wilfredo Lee Yesterday, Ron DeSantis caused a great triggering by signing a bill to protect girls from having to compete with biological boys in grade school sports. That it was the first day of ‘pride month’ only amplified the outrage. As per our usual arrangement, the Never Trump crowd got in on the action as well, with various writers from The Bulwark expressing their outrage.
DeSantis truly is public enemy #1 at this point. Bringing his daughter as a prop for this is grotesque https://t.co/a3hSbrucMs — Tim Miller (@Timodc) June 1, 2021 Prior to the passage and signing of the new law, which is objectively not controversial to the overwhelming majority of Americans who agree that girls’ sports should remain protected, the NCAA dropped their usual threats about pulling events out of the State of Florida. Remember, this is the same organization that threatened North Carolina over trying to stop men from using women’s restrooms. The woke is strong with college sports.
DeSantis, in a move that makes many other Republican governors look small and weak, called the NCAA’s bluff in devastating fashion. FL Gov Ron DeSantis signed a law banning trans female athletes from competing against biological girls in sports.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
