Open Thread | The Protect College Sports Act Is A Scam and a Fraud

So…

EERRRRRBODY can make money from College Sports…
EXCEPT for the athletes PRODUCING the product on the field that funds the machine?

PHUCK-OUTTA-HERE

AFL-CIO ✊
@AFLCIO
College athletes need a seat at the table to set the terms of their work.

Senators: make athletes’ voices heard. Reject the Protect College Sports Act and work with athletes to draft legislation that actually empowers them, not just the NCAA, sports conferences and universities.

The “94% of athletic departments lose money” statistic is doing a lot of work here.

Athletics is, in this respect, exactly like the math department. The university does not ordinarily ask whether mathematics “generated enough revenue” to cover the salaries, classrooms, scholarships, and administrative costs associated with teaching math. It decides the activity advances the institution’s mission and subsidizes it accordingly.

The Protect College Sports Act is wild. Taxpayer aid for poor kids is socialism, but 20-year-old Black athletes should subsidize Elizabeth’s rowing team with the money they generate. Redistribution is only a problem when it doesn’t come from a Black athlete’s pocket.

    DHS is directly attempting to shape voting records. But why?

    Last week, Senator Alex Padilla (D-Calif.) released a new whistleblower report that details how U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) directed its officers to investigate dozens of people’s registration and voting records. In doing so, the agency searched through dozens of voter files each day using faulty data.

    If these claims are corroborated, DHS could be on the hook for thousands of state violations.

    Time and time again, the Trump administration proves that they’re willing to go to new lengths to prove their election fraud lies. But, we’re working to hold them accountable.

    Follow us to stay in the loop of this developing story.

    Do yall that are listening see what we mean by systemic racism?

    This is it and it’s in the Democratic Party driven by White Liberals and far leftists.

    Kamala Harris a Black woman, can’t campaign with Liz Cheney to get stuff done because of her past closeness to Trump and Republicans.

    Hakeem Jeffries a Black man, can’t take a requested meeting with Jared Kushner to get stuff done because he’s Trump’s son in law.

    But Bernie Sanders a White man, can team up with Steve Bannon, who’s in the Epstein files, and one of Trump’s number one allies for years, and nothing is said.

    David Hogg will team up with MTG who harassed him but he has a problem with older Black Democrats.

    Mamdani a born foreigner, can meet with Trump himself 2 times, and talk with him regularly on the phone, and nothing is said!

    This shit is an outrage and yall wonder why we act and feel the way we do.

    Black people been in America since it’s FOUNDING and have contributed so much in nearly every area and still in 2026 we endure bs like this.

    Nevertheless they still can’t break us!!

    So keep trying! We will ALWAYS overcome!

    I don’t think people fully understand what’s happening. We’re not being priced out of luxury. We’re being priced out of normal. A house, car, Groceries, Childcare, Insurance,These weren’t extravagant expectations 20 years ago.

    Now people who support Palestinians are being called anti-Black by the CIA plants on this app. If you champion any policy that helps the average person and threatens capital, those same people will smear you as anti-Black.

    JD Vance claims voters are focused “on the local issues that matter” and not the Iran war

    @magi_jay
    Magdi Jacobs
    @magi_jay
    The Iran War *is* a local issue. The farmers in rural America absolutely know this, as does everyone else at the gas tank.

    Republicans have gotten away with lying to their voters in the past b/c these same voters haven’t felt the *direct* impact of these lies. The impact has largely been distant in time. That’s not the case, now.

    Voters are not going to react well to being lied to over this war and its impact on their lives. This includes the Republican base.

    Some Republicans, like Hinson, in Iowa, are getting the memo. She came out against the war yesterday. Probably too late, given she voted for it multiple times. But she did get the memo.

    In contrast, Vance & others are flying too close to the sun. They’ve gotten away with so many lies they feel insulated. They’re about to learn differently.

    We all know leftists don’t hate Trump as much as we do, but to see it in action is just so jarring. It’s like wow, you really aren’t bothered by him huh.
