USA Today Newspapers Quietly Delete GOP Senator's Op-Ed Warning Against Trans Athletes

https://www.outkick.com/sports/usa-today-newspapers-quietly-delete-gop-senators-op-ed-warning-against-trans-athletes

On May 11, several local USA Today newspapers ran an article by Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) titled,
"Is transgender inclusion more important than women’s sports?" In the piece, Kennedy criticizes
biological men playing women's sports.

However, by May 14, Kennedy's office noticed the links to his op-ed were broken.

Per a Fox News Digital review, Kennedy's office inquired about the broken links but did not hear back.
His office sent another follow-up email on May 20, to which a reporter for Gannett's Louisiana paper
confirmed to the team that the outlet had deleted the article.

"The editors took it down after determining that it didn't meet the company's standards because of some
inflammatory speech," the reporter told Kennedy's office.

Confused, Kennedy's team asked for clarification. The reporter then connected Kennedy's office to Misty
Castile, an executive editor.

Castile told the office there was a "concern" about the lack of citations in the piece. However, Fox News
Digital received the original article and noted 17 different citations, well above average for a USA Today
op-ed.

When confronted, Castile walked back the citations claim.

Castile then shared with Kennedy's office that the "standards department" removed the article. According
to Fox News, the department took issue with the article's analogy to New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion
Williamson.

In the article, Kennedy compared trans female athletes to Williamson joining a youth basketball league
"simply because he identified as a 12-year-old." Kennedy noted that "no middle school boys" would be able
to stop the NBA star from winning and would "probably end up injured if they tried."

The analogy fits. It's amusing and effective.

Yet the standards department said the comparison was "inflammatory" and "mocking how someone identifies
is not acceptable."

The outlet also claimed Kennedy's use of the terms "biological male" and "biological female" goes "against our
standards," claiming they were "loaded language."

This may be 'fun' and 'cool' and all that. But as soon as anyone slips anywhere near that property, the owners will be hit with 39 lawsuits from slip-and-fall lawyers.

The pseudo-legal theory is that once you interfere with nature, meaning the natural state of things, then you automatically assume all legal liability for anything that happens in that area. In attempting to do something productive and beneficial, you open yourself up to the responsibility for everyone crossing. I have seen people sued for simply shoveling their sidewalk. Somebody fell and claimed that the walk was not shoveled properly, and cause them to fall. The sidewalk was not in its natural state.

This is well beyond that. The problem with heated sidewalks (a public space) or drives is that they create water which freezes into ice in severe cold. These people should undo this immediately. Nice thought, but does not work in today's legal insanity.

They have all lost control of their own countries to immigrants. Natives are now the persecuted minority.

Cori Bush, Ilhan Omar Post Now-Deleted Tweets That Show A Lack Of Understanding About Meaning Of Memorial Day

John Simmons

https://www.outkick.com/culture/cori-bush-ilhan-omar-x-posts-memorial-day

We all know that today is Memorial Day, the day that we set aside to honor the men and women who have died
in service to our country.

Apparently, Democrat representatives Cori Bush and Ilhan Omar – or their staffs – don't know the distinction
between this holiday and Veterans Day.

This morning, the official X account for Bush (not her personal account) sent out a tweet that attempted to honor
any soldier who gave their lives for America. I say "attempted," because their effort wildly missed the mark.

Read: Six Heroes Every American Needs To Know For Memorial Day

It started off by acknowledging those who have died in the line of duty (a good start), but then it pivoted to advocating
for government-funded benefits for these soldiers.

This tweet has since been deleted, and with good reason. Not to sound morbid, but you can’t give benefits to people
that have died. Evidently, whoever's posting to Bush’s X account forgot that before pressing "post."

Not wanting to miss out on the chance to make the same mistake, Omar's official X account posted something very
similar a few minutes later. The post also advocated for dead soldiers to receive benefits, which, again, doesn’t make
any sense.
