I actually agree with this in theory and always have, but people like you who get all worked into a froth like it's the end of the world make me want to change my mind.

So much suffering in the world, so much damage from this administration, and this is what you get your knickers in a twist about.

You MAGA perverts sickly obsessed with trans people and trying to make their lives a miserable hell are rotten to the core.

We have huge, urgent problems in this country that affect everybody, but to hear MAGA talk, a tiny smattering of trans athletes are a hair-on-fire emergency that we’re all supposed to obsess over 24/7.

I am not surprised by him. But I am deeply disappointed in them.

After winning gold in a dramatic overtime victory, the U.S. men's hockey team celebrated in the locker room, joined, inexplicably, by FBI Director Kash Patel. While Kash was shot gunning beers in the locker room, he patched in President Trump on speakerphone. Trump invited the men to the State of the Union. Then, referring to the women's team, who had also just won gold, who had broken records, who had carried this country on their backs, he said he'd 'have to' bring them too, or he'd 'probably be impeached.' The room laughed. Every single one of them.

I won't pretend to be surprised. We know who he is. We've always known.

But I am disappointed, deeply disappointed, in the silence of those young men in that locker room.

Because days earlier, those same players did something beautiful. They brought Johnny Gaudreau's little girl onto the ice. Johnny, their teammate, their brother, a man who should have been on that ice with them. For one sacred moment, his daughter stood where he once stood, on Olympic ice, wrapped in the love of a team that hadn't forgotten him. Every person watching felt it. It was the kind of moment that reminds you what sport is really for.

And then, just days later, when the President of the United States turned the gold-medal-winning women of Team USA into a punchline, not one of those men said a word. They laughed.

As a father, I can't get it out of my mind. I think about my own daughter. I think about the little girl I watch grow every single day, who is already full of fire and fight and limitless possibility. I think about what it means for her to grow up in a world where women can win gold medals, break records, and still be treated as an afterthought, a punchline, by the most powerful man in the room. And I think about Johnny's little girl, who just days before had stood on that ice in her father's memory, held up by these very men as a symbol of everything worth fighting for.

And still. Not one word.

I have to believe, I choose to believe, that somewhere in that locker room, there were young men with a pit in their stomach. Men who felt it. Who knew better. Who thought of their daughters, their sisters, their nieces, and thought of Johnny's girl, standing on that ice just days before. Men who had the moral clarity in their hearts but not the courage to let it reach their voice. Who chose the comfort of silence over the discomfort of conviction.

Speaking up when someone is diminished in front of you, even when it's uncomfortable, even when the room is laughing, even when the most powerful person in the world is on the other end of the phone, that is what moral courage looks like. That is what we owe each other.

Those women were extraordinary. They didn't just win gold, they made history. They played with a ferocity and grace that left the entire world in awe. They broke records. They made little girls everywhere believe that there are no limits to what they can become. They made my little Charlotte believe. They gave this country something to be genuinely, unambiguously proud of. And they deserved every bit of the moment that was stolen from them in that locker room.

#Michael Garrett North Carolina Senate
To the athletes who did speak truth to power, who stood on the world's greatest stage and showed us the very best of what America can be, we see you. We are proud of you. And we are forever grateful.

There have always been those among us with the courage to stand up, speak out, and refuse to go silent when it matters most. Be that person. The world needs more of them.

Ai slop. What are you getting out of posting here?

Tell me that you don’t have a daughter who plays competitive sports without telling me that you don’t have a daughter who plays competitive sports.

Thanks for your theoretical support.

No one is minimizing their grit and achievement. If they chose to attend the State of the Union, they would have been celebrated just as much. Also, remember that a reason the men's team has received a lot of media attention is because they haven't won a gold since 1980. Women's has won 3 golds, 4 silvers, and 1 bronze since just 1998.

DP. No they would have been mocked. Republicans hates women’s sports and women in general. We all know Trump would have attacked them.

The US men’s team is just a bunch maga cult member. A true embarrassment to this nation.

Didn’t every Republican in Congress vote to protect women in “women’s” sports? And virtually no democrats voted for that bill?
So actually Democrats are the ones who don’t give a crap about women’s sports by allowing biological males to compete with women???

You obviously know nothing about Republicans. It’s interesting that liberals accuse conservatives of being divisive when the opposite is true. Republicans are some of the biggest supporters of women’s sports these days. Please don’t make things up just because you’re uninformed.

We all saw and heard what the president, Patel and the men's hockey team said and laughed about. So your attempt at gaslighting is a total fail.

Let's focus on something that impacts less than one person per state

When Trump said the quiet part out loud, any of those guys on the men's team could have grown a spine and pushed back. None of them did.

LOL. Stop it with your faux support. Explain why the president belittled the women’s team?! You can’t! And you’re okay with mocking women athletes.

At least have the intellectual honesty to admit it.

And exactly how many trans athletes has she competed against in this competitive sport. Don't lie. Did she actually care or is this just you being a MAGA sicko pervert. Is she a professional? Then she's not competing against men, so don't know why you would worry about it.

So the women, who have to hold other jobs due to low pay, should be celebrated and not just with an afterthought incitation because T thinks he will be impeached.

The men are lame if this was their first medial and they get paid north of $775k per year. The women just recently had their first six-figure salary and have to have other jobs.

Men rewarded for mediocrity as usual.

Perhaps the men should play the women. You know, equal rights and all. Everyone could throw their salaries in escrow and the winner takes all.

Men get paid more because their league generates significantly more revenue.

Democrats know this is a made up problem that the GOP uses to distract from the fact that they have no solutions to real problems. We are tired of the GOP hand waving and propaganda. High level GOP/administration members are out there talking about taking away women's right to vote, saying they don't belong in the military etc. So sit the F down and shut up. The GOP is anti-women no matter how you slice it.

Are you actually that stupid that you don't realize all the sexist reasons they currently generate more revenue?

I guess your DD is going to make it all the way to the top to be denigrated by the president and all the white bros who think she's second class in her sport.
