- ‘Are You Guys Crazy?!’ Fox’s Lawrence Jones Bashes WNBA for ‘Shameful’...
Fox News host Lawrence Jones absolutely torched the WNBA for failing to back up one of its most notable players in a steamed rant about men playing in women’s sports. During a discussion about Indiana Fever guard Sophie Cunningham and her stance against men in women’s sports on Monday morning’s Fox & Friends, the curvy couch spoke out against Minnesota Lynx coach Cheryl Reeve. On Sunday, Reeve took a not-so-subtle shot at Cunningham by donning a T-shirt blaring a “Trans Kids Belong” message as her team took on the Indiana Fever. Upon hearing that Reeve told reporters after the game that she and Cunningham agree that “both of us understand we have platforms,” and, “We both talked about wanting to more than anything, educate,” Jones was peeved. “This is such an idiotic response to the debate to say that the other side that want men to stay in their lane, which if they want to play in a professional league, play in the NBA, to say that we don’t care about kids existing,” he said. Jones went on: This is how they try to emotionally manipulate. All of us want kids to be protected. All of us that to happen, but there are biological differences that we used to acknowledge. And, I mean, honestly, us as men, we really don’t have to say much on this issue. Because, it’s not like the NFL is going to be affected. It’s not like the NBA is gonna be affected. It is women’s sports that is going to be impacted. And I would just think that the people that are on there because they wanted their own separate league so could be able to play fairly, would want to protect their own institution. But it seems like they don’t want to do that. And when you see a guy that is auditioning and makes the team, I wonder if that would shape them into what these high school students have been going through the last few years. Later, Jones said that Cunningham is the only WNBA player speaking out on the issue. “Just so we’re clear here on the WNBA, Sophie’s alone. She’s alone right now.” When Earhardt pointed out that others probably feel the same as Cunningham but don’t speak out, Jones launched into another tirade: That’s even worse. You’re going to allow one of young colleagues that’s trying to… [TheTopNews] Read More.3 hours ago - CNN’s Elie Honig Blasts Jeanine Pirro For Charging Case Without Knowing ‘Wha...CNN senior legal analyst Elie Honig suggested Monday that U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro’s Reflecting Pool case was doomed from the start due to a lack of evidence. On Friday, Pirro — the U.S. Attorney in Washington, D.C. — sought to dismiss the case against former Olympic canoeist David Hearn. Hearn was accused of vandalizing the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, leading to its dire state shortly after President Donald Trump’s pricey renovation project. He pleaded not guilty to the charges. In a court filing, Pirro even admitted that the issues with the pool stemmed from “flawed installation.” Pirro’s decision drew the ire of Trump, who said on Trump social that he disagreed with her “100%” for dismissing the case. He even questioned her thinking and stood firm on the theory that the pool was damaged by vandals. Reacting to the case dismissal Monday, Hoenig argued that Pirro shouldn’t have pressed charges in the first place. He added: Jeanine Pirro came out — you remember, Pam — with a vociferous press conference where she came out and pounded the podium and said this is a very serious case, and we have very strong evidence, and it needs to be prosecuted, and this person committed a felony. Now, she’s completely backing out of that because she realizes that her proof is completely lacking. So if someone wants to fault Jeanine Pirro, it should be for bringing this case in the first place before she even knew what the evidence was, and not for pulling the plug now. I mean, there’s plenty of fault to go around here, but as much as the president may want this case to come back to life, there’s just nothing there. And if you don’t have the proof, you’re never going to have a case.

- Clay Travis Offers to Pay WNBA Champions $10 Million If They Can Beat a Boys’ ...
Screenshot OutKick founder Clay Travis has again called for the Las Vegas Aces, the defending WNBA champions, to play a boys’ high school basketball team—and this time around, he’ll pay the winners $10 million. “Important announcement: I am upping my offer, $10 million dollars for a head-to-head basketball game between the defending WNBA champion Las Vegas Aces and a boy’s [sic] high school state title team of my choice,” Travis wrote on X Monday. “If the Aces beat my team, I will give them $10 million.” Important announcement: I am upping my offer, $10 million dollars for a head-to-head basketball game between the defending WNBA champion Las Vegas Aces and a boy's high school state title team of my choice. If the Aces beat my team, I will give them $10 million. — Clay Travis (@ClayTravis) August 3, 2026 He later added, “If the boys win, I will give them $10 million to distribute as they see fit to their team members. Game on pay-per-view with all profits donated to Tunnel 2 Towers to provide mortgage-free homes to families of deceased soldiers, police & first responders.” The sum would be “the most money ever paid to win a single basketball game.” Back in 2023, Travis offered $1 million to the Aces, who also won back-to-back championships in 2022 and 2023. “A good, state championship caliber, high school boys team would smoke the best team in the WNBA,” he said during an episode of OutKick the Show. Aces guard Chelsea Gray responded to the story on X and wrote simply, “Dumbass.” Travis’ 2023 call also prompted a response from former NBA player Patrick Beverley. He said on an Overtime podcast, “I don’t give a f*ck what he say. They are way more physical than man. I literally went through the Minnesota Lynx while I was chasing Aerial Powers through screens and like… they hit you more. They screen hard. They hold their screens. It’s a physical ass game, bro. It’s crazy. These WNBA girls are skilled. As a player you want to watch basketball, that’s first. But you want to actually see, okay, cool like who got bag, who do this, who do that?”The post Clay Travis Offers to Pay WNBA Champions $10 Million If They Can Beat a Boys’ High School Basketball Team first appeared on Mediaite.

The debate centered around comments by longtime strategist James Carville, who declared that if far-left commentator Hasan Piker “becomes a force in the Democratic Party, I’m out of here.” “I have no intention of ever being in the same political party with that guy. Now, I think a majority, agree with me,” Carville said in a recent interview. Critics accuse Piker of promoting antisemitism, which Piker denies, saying his target is the Israeli government and not the Jewish people. Piker has also sparked controversy for claiming the U.S. “deserved” 9/11 and for boosting terror groups like Hezbollah. Faulkner addressed former Democrat Ohio Senate candidate Morgan Harper about the rising far-left faction of the Democratic Party. “The issue comes with, do you want to lose your ability to raise funds?” Faulkner asked. “I mean, you have so many mainstreamers in your party, too, that don’t want this socialist push. How do you square it all?” “Yeah, I think it is interesting what Carville said,” Harper answered. “First of all, I think that God might have something to say about Jim Carville continuing to dictate Democrat politics more than anything he might see being over 80 years old.” “Wait a minute,” Faulkner interjected. “Are you implying God because you think he would — why would you say something like that? That sounds like death? Is that what you mean to say? Because that’s offensive.” “What I’m saying is we have a lot of people in our party who are very, very old, who have been dictating strategy and they have lost. I’ll take an example. Somebody that Jim Carville backed, Tim Ryan, for example, in Ohio, where I live. He said he was going to be the one to turn the state. It didn’t work. So, we have to start getting focused on what will win.” Watch the clip above via The Faulkner Focus on Fox News.The post ‘Sounds Like Death?’ Fox’s Harris Faulkner Scolds Democratic Guest for Invoking God And James Carville’s Age first appeared on Mediaite.

- Mike Pence Confronted About Fauci’s Lab Leak Assurances on Fox News: ‘Do You...Former Vice President Mike Pence told Fox News on Monday he has a hard time grappling with the fact Dr. Anthony Fauci repeatedly “assured” him Covid-19 could not have originated in a Chinese lab during their time working together in the White House. Pence talked to America’s Newsroom about Fauci, a week after the doc’s pandemic diary was published. “What’s most troubling to me was, I lost count of the number of times in the situation room where I asked Dr. Fauci that it might be possible that it came from a lab leak in Wuhan,” Pence said. “And he assured me over and over again — even with other virologists at the table taking a different view — that [it] couldn’t have come from a lab.” “Do you think he lied to you?” America’s Newsroom co-host Dana Perino asked. Pence did not answer her question directly. “I don’t know what the source of it was. I wrote about it in my book about four years ago — I always suspected that it came from a lab. I’m troubled by the fact that we haven’t to this day held China accountable for a virus that cost the lives of millions of people around the world.” His comments come after it was revealed Fauci did not believe the theory the virus originated in a Chinese wet market; Fauci shot the theory down early in the pandemic. “Now we know the market was not the source, it was the amplifier,” Fauci wrote a January 2020 diary entry. “Having said that, somewhere the virus jumped from animals to humans.” Fauci’s diary was published late last month by Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), who then spearheaded a congressional hearing last week in which Fauci invoked the Fifth Amendment more than 100 times. The doctor refused to answer questions about his time leading the government’s response to Covid, as well as questions on whether Bill Gates partnered with China’s communist government on “sensitive research”; he also declined to answer simpler questions, like what color tie he was wearing. “Do you think in hindsight that he was protecting his own policies?” co-host Bill Hemmer asked on Monday. Pence said he was “very disappointed” Fauci took the Fifth so many times last week, and added, “I can understand why people would speculate that, with the gain-of-function investments that NIH had made internationally, including in China.” Watch above.The post Mike… [TheTopNews] Read More.3 hours ago
- CNN’s Elie Honig Says Blanche Promise On Trump Fund ‘Accomplishes Essentiall...CNN anchor Pamela Brown spoke with chief legal analyst Elie Honig on Monday as news broke that Sens. John Cornyn (R-TX) and Thom Tillis (R-NC) struck a deal to support Todd Blanche’s attorney general nomination in exchange for a written guarantee killing Trump’s $1.8 billion weaponization fund. “Elie, what do you make of this deal, which appears to have ultimately secured the support of Republican senators Cornyn and Tillis, those Republican holdouts?” Brown asked Honig. “Well, Pam, for all the drama around this written document from Todd Blanche, it really accomplishes essentially nothing as a legal matter, and here’s why,” Honig replied, adding: The original parties to that agreement that set up the slush fund and the IRS immunity deal — there were two parties: the federal government and Donald Trump, private individual. Todd Blanche, on behalf of one of those parties, the federal government, had already testified under oath that he considered the fund dead. Now he’s put that in writing, which is no different, really, than him testifying under oath. So we have that part, but what we don’t have is the other party, Donald Trump, signing onto this. And so, at least theoretically, there’s a possibility Donald Trump, in his private capacity, through his lawyers, could go back to court and say, “Wait a second, we had a deal here. Both of us agreed to it a few months ago, and now one side wants out — DOJ wants out. But we don’t agree. We don’t want to let them out.” And in fact, if you look back, when Todd Blanche testified in his confirmation hearing, Senator Cornyn asked him about exactly that scenario, and Blanche agreed — yeah, I guess there is a way the other side could go in and try to revitalize this deal. So, all this drama around, “Will Blanche put it in writing?” — now he has, and apparently that has satisfied Cornyn and Tillis, but it actually does nothing legally to put a formal end to this deal. “That’s a really important point. So are you surprised that this anti-weaponization fund had become the sticking point in Blanche’s confirmation?” Brown followed up. “Well, I’ve learned never to expect anything in particular from the House or the Senate. But yes — look, the weaponization fund absolutely was deserving of criticism and ridicule, really, by Cornyn and Tillis and others. And… [TheTopNews] Read More.3 hours ago
