Fresh Details Emerge About New ‘MAGA Barbie’s’ Right-Wing Support
The Daily Beast ^ | July 27, 2026 | Laura Esposito

Posted on 07/28/2026 10:04:27 PM PDT by MinorityRepublican

Sophie Cunningham appears to be of MAGA mindset.

The WNBA star, who created a firestorm over her comments about transgender athletes, has also shared videos promoting anti-immigration and other right-wing sentiments.

First reported by MeidasTouch, the Indiana Fever guard reposted a video on TikTok, where she has 3.2 million followers, captioned: “the illegal immigrant conversation confuses me so much.”

The re-posted creator, who also included the hashtags “MAGA” and “conservatives,” blasted undocumented people for not “following rules” and argued that those who enter the United States illegally do not deserve sympathy. “You shouldn’t have ----ing came here to begin with,” the creator, who identifies as “Matrix,” said.

Cunningham, 29, also reposted a video that declared “rap is demonic,” “being promiscuous leads to regret,” and referred to “modern tv” as “propoganda.”

She also reposted a video criticizing Olympian Hunter Hess, who made headlines after admitting he had “mixed emotions” about representing the United States at the Winter Olympics. The clip begins with Hess saying, “Just ‘cuz I’m wearing the flag doesn’t mean I represent everything that’s going on in the U.S.”

It then cuts to a WWE clip of The Rock saying, “Shut up, ---–h.”

Yes she does. Caitlin Clark as well. Just bought a Fever t-shirt with #22 - Caitlin’s number. May have to get one with #8.

Oooooh. Fresh details. She’s a regular Nick Shirley. Or irregular. Looks like she might be dealing with some intestinal issues.

Normal support gets cast as ‘Right-Wing’. The Marxist template remains even in chick sports media.
