This is why figures like former KKK leader David Duke (below) endorsed Trump, not Democrats. That being said; I challenge anyone to provide evidence where white nationalist groups have thrown their support behind today's Democratic Party. Bring it! (cont) www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Looking at Caitlin Clark's exit interview & when she talks about racism that Kelsey Mitchell & others pretty much surrounds her? She says that's not who she is or is about. She said that's not what she stands for? When do she "stand" against it? #BlueSky #Sports #WNBA

I'm not surprised to see Angel Reese play and rise up the way she is. She's been a good player, coachable and has the work ethic. People just wanted to see her fail. All she needed was a better environment than the Chicago Sky. Now she's happy and so is Atlanta. #BlueSky #Sports #WNBA

So...CC's 4th year option was activated by the Fever so that makes her an RFA at the end if next season. Which gives Fever more leverage over negotiations from other teams & such. So the Fever *may not* be in an urgent situation to extend CC next yr & be focused on Kelsey Mitchell? #BlueSky #WNBA

People are also running with the narrative about Kelsey Mitchell that she had an opportunity to leave to twice and didn't. Not completely true. Her 1st extension was 2021. Pre-CC. The last two times were COREs (tags) & they're basically restricting tags. Not unrestricting. #BlueSky #Sports #WNBA
