Racism doesn’t become justice when roles reverse—bigotry dressed as victimhood still poisons the well of a multiracial democracy. One reason why the public turned on DEI was its insistence that roughly 70 percent of the country was stereotyped as victimizers by virtue of their skin color. In contrast, the other “diverse” 30 percent were de facto considered the victimized. In such absurd binaries, the left returned to the old “one-drop” rule of the antebellum South, suggesting that anyone with any nonwhite ancestry was a minority victim. And once that Marxist-inspired dichotomy was institutionalized, a corollary was established that the self-declared...

WNBA player Angel Reese ignited a social media firestorm after claiming players are prepared to sit out games to demand higher salaries during her podcast Friday. Reese and fellow WNBA player DiJonai Carrington addressed the next WNBA collective bargaining agreement. "I've got to get in the meetings because I'm hearing like, 'If y'all don't give us what we want, we sitting out,'" Reese said. Carrington added, "That's a possibility." Reese has griped about her financial situation in the past. "The WNBA don't pay my bills at all. I don't even think it pays one of my bills. Literally," Reese said....

Clark’s fellow players would rather the WNBA collapse than give her a modicum of credit for bringing attention to the sport.I never thought the day would come when the Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA) would be newsworthy enough to write about. But in an era where deranged leftists think men can become women and get pregnant, I suppose anything is possible.The story in question centers around an incident that occurred during a Sunday matchup between the Chicago Sky’s Angel Reese and Indiana Fever’s Caitlin Clark. Most Americans are likely familiar with Clark for her dominating performance at the University of...

Angel Reese vs. Caitlin Clark remains spicy. The Chicago Sky rookie forward was called for a flagrant 1 foul after hitting Clark in the head during their matchup on Sunday.

Caitlin Clark was smacked on the head by Angel Reese and subjected to more rough treatment by her Chicago Sky rivals on Sunday, causing Dave Portnoy to lead the outrage. Clark and the Indiana Fever played Chicago on Sunday for the first time since the No. 1 overall pick in the WNBA Draft was brutally bodychecked by Chennedy Carter earlier this month. The Fever won that first meeting 71-70 on June 1 but the game was overshadowed by Sky guard Carter's hip-check foul on Clark before an inbounds play. It was ruled a common foul, only to be upgraded to...

Caitlin Clark has brought unprecedented attention to women’s basketball. And plenty of women’s basketball players seem to resent her for it. Clark took an away-from-the-ball cheap shot, possibly preceded by this message from her assailant: “You’re a bitch.” It’s a bizarre situation, to say the least (The more responsible move is to not escalate the situation, and to let the powers-that-be handle it. It remains to be seen whether the powers-that-be will.)

"Unfortunately, the date suggested is not feasible given the student-athlete calendar and time of year." The Georgia Bulldogs once again will not be coming to the White House to celebrate a national championship. The team announced Tuesday that they are declining President Joe Biden’s invitation to attend “College Athlete Day” scheduled for June 12. An athletic department spokesman told Dawg Nation, “The University of Georgia first received on May 3 an invitation for the Bulldog football team to visit the White House on June 12. ​​Unfortunately, the date suggested is not feasible given the student-athlete calendar and time of year....
