As my colleague Nick Arama reported on Saturday morning, left-wing, virtue-signaling, multimillionaire actress Alyssa Milano had the intestinal fortitude on Thursday to ask her fans to help pay for her son's traveling baseball team's trip to Cooperstown, N.Y., home of Major League Baseball's Hall of Fame.
My son’s baseball team is raising money for their Cooperstown trip. Any amount would be so greatly appreciated. You can read more about the team and make a donation here:
Why all the gall— Wait. We're talking about Alyssa Milano. Never mind.

Milano, who's worth an estimated $10 million and married to a wealthy husband, as well , further explained on the Birds 12U Fund GoFundMe Page (emphasis, the page):
Baseball is life and our teammates [sic] are our brothers. Baseball gives us purpose and we are driven to be our very best. In order to compete, we must raise funds.
The Birds 12U team is coached by two great coaches and our team is diverse, hardworking and really good. We've won many championship rings!
Our coaches instill lessons not just about baseball. They teach us leadership and life-skills. [sic] They are good people. We are lucky to have them.
We hope you will make a donation to keep our team competitive. Your donation will go to travel costs, uniforms, and dues for families. We also might use your donations for pins or novelty items to make our tournaments memorable experiences beyond the field.
Thank you so much for your consideration. We won't let you down.
As to be expected, Milano was instantly trashed on X — which she predictably used to attempt to paint herself as the victim, whining about paying for the teams's uniforms, birthday parties, cupcakes, and such.
Enter, OutKick founder Clay Travis, who's also a sports journalist, radio host, and lawyer. Being the fine upstanding gentleman he is, Travis stepped up to the plate and picked up the tab on the remaining balance of the team's $10,000 goal: $794.
But Clay being Clay — and I say that as a fan with great respect for the guy — he jabbed Milano with one hilarious condition.
Hey @Alyssa_Milano since you couldn’t afford to pay for your son’s baseball team to travel to Cooperstown, I just paid off the rest of the GoFundMe so they could make the trip. Only request is the team play the tourney in MAGA hats. You’re welcome.
Travis drops mic, walks off stage.

Given Milano's stage 4 Trump Derangement Syndrome affliction, that had to leave a mark.
Here's more, from the guys at OutKick:
Seems perfectly reasonable. Those kids are going to be the best dressed in Cooperstown with their crispy new MAGA hats.
Clay’s donation doesn’t just bail out a poor, starving, millionaire actress in need. He’s also giving a group of 12-year-olds an experience they’ll never forget. Clay understands — because he took his own kid to Cooperstown just last year.
Granted, he managed to do it without asking for handouts from people with way less money than him.
[...]
And since Alyssa Milano is so hard up for cash these days, I’ll bet she can get someone to donate those, too.
Again, ouch.
Added Travis, on the site:
I know even the Hollywood Elite are struggling thanks to Bidenomics. I’m just happy to do my part to help ease their suffering.
Damn, son — job well done.
Alyssa Milano was unavailable for additional whining and more victimhood.

She probably solicits donations to pay someone to wipe her butt
And, wiping her butt has become quite a messy job since she took Sheryl Crow’s advice to use only one square of toilet paper per visit.
I googled her and she played Jenny in Commando.
Here’s a musical recap of that movie - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8FFQ_g8OoQM
She’s just another champagne socialist limousine lefty.
She’s an asswipe alright.
I think the main problem with her is that she is just pretty dumb. Sometimes smart lefties pretend to be dumb for tactical reasons. She doesn’t have an option to pretend.
Clay’s a RINO and gutless on a lot of important issues. Certainly no Rush, but the his was mildly funny.
Or Alyssa Milano is broke. It’s expensive living in California. Her acting gigs dried up. So how is she making money?
the his = this
Clay. don’t expect her to be grateful or gracious.
Those are two things that Lefties hate.
She certainly failed the “age with dignity” goal that is always hard for actresses. She was a star because she was very pretty, tried to retain that with plastic surgeries and failed.
That’s where she was supposed to marry a wealthy old guy like Ted Turner. Then divorce him.
I coached my kids soccer when they were little. I guess there’s more gear for baseball - but $10K? Of course we weren’t taking trips to wherever the soccer hall of fame is.
If it were me, I would have just posted about the team and how important sports are, blah, blah, blah and skip the part about asking for a donation.
In one of her replies, she said she would pay for it if she could. Is she broke?
I still think she is rather dumb too because she doesn’t even get the leftist talking points right.
Like the time when she tried to make Woodrow Wilson a progressive icon. There are ways for leftists to praise Wilson, but leaning on modern progressive values doesn’t work there because Wilson was unusually racist even for his time.
Alyssa is a woman who’s always bragging about her abortions. She’s the scum of the earth.
3. Remind me not to shake hands with her!!
I attribute her stupidity to headboard CTE.
I may be looking at this wrong but do people want her to pay for the entire team? Should the other team members expect the rich parents to pay for the other player? I agree that her asking for donations is a tacky but did the team select her because of name recognition to possibly garner more donations? There is a piece to this story that I am missing.
