Former ESPN personality Sarah Spain grumbled on her podcast recently that sitting near “demon” Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio at the Winter Olympics in Italy made her feel “ill.”
The “Good Game with Sarah Spain” host described her proximity to the top Trump administration officials – about 20 feet away, according to Spain – as one of the “low lights” of covering the US women’s hockey team as they demolished Czechia at the Milano Cortina games last week.
“Twelve minutes into the first period, that area suddenly is awash with large men in suits with earpieces,” Spain said of a previously empty part of the arena that suddenly filled with Secret Service agents, “and here comes JD Vance carrying a child and a bunch of security and eventually Marco Rubio.”

Splain’s got some ‘splainin’ to do, and she better lose her gig even if she does try to talk her way out.

Oh how I wish that JD Vance and Marco Rubio had the power to make AWFLs physically ill to the point of uncontrolled vomiting.

I read the comments following the article in the Post, and must say I was pleasantly surprised. The whole tone was, grow up or get over yourself. Everyone seems to be so over White liberal females.

What is with some people?
She felt ill because a political opponent of hers is nearby?
Or is she just virtue signaling to reassure everyone of her hatred forJD Vance and Marco Rubio?
How many of you would feel the need to express feeling ill, if you are in proximity to Hillary Clinton or Joe Biden biden or Barack Obama? Is that really a normal reaction of people?

Really mature. So many of these leftists seem to be stuck in adolescence.

She went to Ann Coulter’s alma mater, Cornell, and appears to have taken the pounds that Ann left behind there.
