Well, guys, you want to know what's much worse than, remember, shut up and dribble?
Remember when they were outraged that you would tell an athlete to shut up and dribble?
Well, Nancy Pelosi basically just did that.
She twice over the last 48 hours has come out to tell US athletes to essentially cower to the Chinese Communist Party and not speak out against their human rights abuses.
Here's the video clip.
Check it out for yourself. As I say, as I wish the athletes well, I do not encourage them to speak out against the Chinese government there because I fear for their safety if they do.
Here's another one where she doubles down again and comes out and specifically says, don't speak out against the Chinese Communist Party's genocide against the Uyghur Muslims in that country.
You know, where they're putting away in work camps, forced sterilizations, all the disgusting things That we're hearing about.
And I want to know where is that outrage?
I remember a time when if Megan Rapinoe and the U.S. women's team came out against Trump, this was a great place to host your politics and to do this.
But China, no problem.
They can get away with it. We're not going to call them out.
What the hell is anyone doing, given the Chinese Communist Party, the Olympics to begin with?
In the spirit of the Olympics, all the things that we've been told for decades about what it means, why would we even consider giving China a chance to do this?
I would say to our athletes, you're there to compete.
Do not risk incurring the anger of the Chinese government because they are ruthless.
I know there is a temptation on the part of some to speak out while they are there.
I respect that.
But I also worry about what the Chinese government might do to their reputations, to their families.
You guys are paying attention yet?
Do you see what's going on?
Do you think maybe it's because the companies where Nancy Pelosi invests her millions, where she's allowed to insider trade and do all this stuff?
Do you think maybe they're beholden to China, just like Hollywood?
Just like the NBA and the sports teams.
Remember, everyone's got a political opinion until money's on the line.
So, shut up and dribble.
The media went crazy about, that was terrible, you can't say essentially such things.
But Nancy Pelosi telling our athletes who are going to be on a world stage and who would have an opportunity to actually speak out against real-world atrocities, right?
Where a minority population is being destroyed By a tyrannical regime, now you've got to shut up and dribble.
There's too much money at stake.
We don't want to risk that, right?
So rather than penalizing China for what we all know has happened over the last few years, right?
Let's say they weren't apparently exactly honest about the virus.
They haven't exactly conducted themselves well as a member of the international community.
None of those things. But they're going to be rewarded By hosting the Olympics in 2022.
Why are we there?
Why are we there?
If our athletes have to be warned to not say anything against a tyrannical and dictatorial regime, why are we there?
I guess she's fine with US athletes protesting using their platform against the United States.
That's wonderful. But to do it against China, an actual dictatorial regime is problematic.
She's a national embarrassment and a disgrace and so are the policies that let us get there.
I'm not watching the Olympics.
I hope that you guys don't.
I understand why athletes may be there.
That may be the one shot that they get to do it.
I apologize if we're not watching.
I can understand again why they may go because it may be their only chance to compete like that.
But the fact that China is an enemy of the US, and we're allowing this to continue, that no one is calling out the hypocrisy, that the third in line to the presidency of the United States is telling our athletes to shut up and dribble, don't offend the Chinese Communist Party, while they literally could be sterilizing, raping, you know, the Uyghur Muslims over in a four-off part of the country.
That's no problem, folks.
That's no problem. This is why we gotta watch.
Check out the videos for yourself.
It's absolutely disgusting.
