The L.A. Dodgers bow down to the ‘transgender’ crowd
American Thinker ^ | 23 May, 2023 | Andrea Widburg

Many people view baseball as a family-friendly sport. That’s why it made sense for the Los Angeles Dodgers to agree with a letter from Sen. Marco Rubio asking them to refrain from giving an award to the blasphemous drag group known as the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence (“SPI”). However, a week of agitation from the LGBTQ++ crowd caused the team to change its mind. Once again, the squeakier wheel, which is supported 100% by its political leadership, got the grease.

The SPI is a drag group that began in 1979 when some gay men decided to dress as campy nuns to highlight what they perceived as problems within San Francisco’s gay-friendly Castro District. Considering that the Castro District was once a solidly working-class, Irish Catholic community, you can imagine the group’s target.

The group has grown throughout the Western world. It models its membership and hierarchy on Catholic organizations, including calling newcomers “postulants.” The SPI’s motto is “go and sin some more.” Members often go beyond dressing as nuns and appear as Jesus and Mary. It is, in all respects, a deliberate attack on Catholicism in particular and Christianity as a whole.

That’s why, when word got out that the Dodgers, to honor Pride week, were planning on giving an award to the SPI, Catholics were offended, as were the growing number of people who understand that drag isn’t cute, funny men in dresses but is, instead, intended to be the equivalent of a gateway drug for transgenderism.

When Rubio got word of what was happening, he wrote directly to the MLB commissioner to object:

Rubio is criticizing Manfred and the Dodgers for their decision by pointing out the obvious hypocrisy from the league and the team.

It’s a deliberate attempt to destroy sports and the church. They disguise it as harmless cross dressing. It isn’t. They know what they are doing. I understand what’s going on. If I talk about it I will be labeled as a conspiracy theorist.

The left truly believes they can use the trans issue to push the 2024 elections much like they used abortion for the 2022 elections. Given the vast majority in this country who vote (and don’t vote), they may be right. Personally, I think it’s just a diversion, much like the constant Trump litigation, in order to cover up the massive steal coming in 2024.

The Dodgers regularly draw almost three million fans a season. Yet they feel they need to pander to the transgender community?! I know it’s LA but still how many are baseball fans?!

We lost “professional” sports in the summer of 2020, so this is not a new defeat - just collectivists tinkering with the function of one of their new toys.

I’m a new Dodgers fan, following Freddie from the Braves. This news is a little discouraging. I hope I don’t start see it in the morning replays on YouTube...I could care less what they “do” in LA or any part of the left coast ... just don’t put it on my screen here on the RIGHT coast.

I used to be a big Dodgers fan from the days when Duke Snider, Larry Sherry and Wally Moon were household names. But I don’t follow baseball anymore. Playoffs, interleague play, designated hitters, tie games, extending the season past Halloween and unlistenable hip-hop replacing the organ have ruined baseball as far as I’m concerned. And now this, the biggest outrage of all.

The cabal takes us from extreme to extreme. They create a problem for multiple reasons. It has created the issue of transgenderism, intending to cause division and chaos. Not incidentally, this also serves to aid some political careers.

Transgenderism has, in a very short time, become the # 1 social/moral issue of the day. It delivers on multiple fronts. It’s always in the headlines. This is all by design. It touches all of our emotions, and much of our logic and reasoning.

This article brings Senator Rubio into the mix, allowing him to take a stand for Judeo-Christian values, which would, hypothetically, put him in a positive light among Republicans if he were to say, run for President. Rubio has been outspoken on this issue, which is intended to give him creds with conservatives. (He came in 3rd to Trump in 2016, so he has the primary experience - and the gravitas of a U.S. Senator).

Mike Pence is also mentioned in the article, and some say he intends to run in 2024. Former VP, so no surprise on his running for POTUS.

Don’t assume that the anti-Trump globalists just love Ron DeSantis. They will take any candidate that can beat Trump in the primary, including Rubio and Pence. Each man may end up running.

The cabal knows how to position Rubio, Pence and DeSantis in order to take on Trump. It understands the psyche of the average conservative, and the expectations that Republicans and conservative middle America have of candidates. The cabal can deliver! MAGA-lites. Non-Trumps, but who give lip service to core Trump positions. The candidates won’t be - even remotely - independent, but will appear to take on…..wokeism, transgenderism, globalism - everything that conservative middle America believes is leading us down the dark path. The dark path has been constructed by the cabal itself for this very purpose!

It seems as if transgenderism is at the core of the dark path, the one that gets everyone up in arms. This issue hits like no other.

It’s all very twisted, much like the cabal itself is twisted and deformed.

--------------------------------------------------

In 2016 it was Trump, Cruz, Rubio and Kasich.

In ’24 it could be Trump, DeSantis, Pence and Rubio. A former President, sitting governor, sitting U.S. Senator, and former Vice-President.

I would imagine, I don’t think their gears work properly.

Yesteryear that would hold but today I think all the sexes have trouble with parallel parking nowadays.

It’s so bad that I don’t think they even test you on it anymore.
