Rapinoe says US women's soccer team would be 'very happy to accept' Schumer's invite to Senate
Fox News ^ | July 08 2019 | Talia Kaplan

The U.S. women's soccer team's star forward Megan Rapinoe told reporters Monday that the team would be “very happy to accept” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer’s invitation to come to Capitol Hill to celebrate their victory and discuss equal pay legislation.

“What the #USWNT did was extraordinary, and they deserve to be compensated fairly,” Schumer, D-N.Y., tweeted on Monday. “All women need to be compensated fairly. Period. And we ought to pay attention to this not just once every four years during the World Cup, but year-in and year-out.”

Earlier, Monday, during remarks on the Senate floor, Schumer invited the team to the Senate to celebrate the historic victory in the 2019 Women’s World Cup. He also called on Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to bring legislation up for a vote that would ensure all women earn equal pay.

[[Why does she get to speak for the team.]]

Seems like a lot of times, it’s the worst of the worst- those that bray the loudest, like her- that speak for others and are in positions of leadership- This is Satan’s world after all- for now that is- She can bray all she likes, but She’s going down a very dark road- those who are lost in sin like that can’t see the truth because they are blinded by the father of lies- in them dwells no good thing- their minds are continually evil- They commit their sins openly, daringly, in defiance of heaven- Sadly they do not realize they are on the losing side- For those that reject Christ, earth is as close to eternity in heaven as they will get- to the Christian, earth is as close to eternity in hell as we will ever get-

Hopefully she figures this out, repents, gets saved, and becomes a decent human being at some point- but right now she is very vulgar, angry, and hateful-

The men deserve a raise from their current measly 9% to the women’s 14%.

Or the women are overpaid and should be reduced from 14% to 9%.

So it's all about politics now. Disgusting.

Why does she get to speak for the team.

At least five players -- plus the coach herself -- are dykes. I am quite sure she speaks for them.

I’d be embarrassed to put myself on display as a team member if my so called championship team lost to a bunch of 14 yr old high school soccer players from Dallas like they did.

These insufferable women are only helping Trump. Let them continue to act like jackasses for all to see.

Interesting that Schumer did this, given that one of their worst accusations against us is that we are “divisive”.

“Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer employed 27 women compared to 13 men in fiscal year 2017. But on average Schumer’s male employees made $66,590 while his female employees made $59,489.”

Schumer doesn’t even speak for Upstate.

In fact, he’s so disliked up here that he only appears by parachute drop, no prior announcement so protesters can’t show up to welcome him.

Way to Rapinoe, you’re sucking up to a guy who’s helped stick it to women all over Upstate NY.

< sarcasm > Nothing partisan about that. < /sarcasm >

Schumer is at least as un-American as Megan Rapinoe. American in Name Only is a very real thing, and it seems to be gaining traction in a certain segment of the population of this country.

< sarcasm > Unfortunately, thee is no mechanism by which these people are permitted to depart from the territory of the United States of America. < /sarcasm >
