Megyn Kelly, Piers Morgan, and others blew up on social media after the Algerian boxer Imane Khelif — who failed gender tests — was named the female Olympic champion. At the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris on Friday, Khelif was awarded the gold in the women’s welterweight final boxing match, prompting immediate reactions on social media. The host of “The Megyn Kelly Show” podcast blasted the move by writing, in all caps, about how unfair it was that the International Olympic Committee (IOC) awarded a boxer reportedly with XY chromosomes the gold medal. “Don’t you see? Don’t you see what this insanity is doing to women??” Kelly wrote. “WHY DO GIRLS HAVE TO SHARE THEIR BATHROOMS W/BOYS? THEIR LOCKER ROOMS? THEIR SPORTS? THEIR PRISONS?” To all the media who have FAILED WOMEN AT EVERY TURN on this boxing and virtually EVERY trans story: SHAME ON YOU ALL — Megyn Kelly (@megynkelly) August 9, 2024 “WHY DO 4th GRADE BOYS HAVE TO SHARE THEIRS W/GIRLS (& THEIR TAMPONS) IN MN?” she added. “NONE OF THIS IS NORMAL, SAFE OR FAIR.” “To all the media who have FAILED WOMEN AT EVERY TURN on this boxing and virtually EVERY trans story: SHAME ON YOU ALL,” Kelly continued. Talk show host Piers Morgan called Khelif being named the women’s champion a “travesty.” “From Emmeline Pankhurst to this… where are the world’s feminists now, as women’s hard-fought rights get so shamefully destroyed?” Morgan’s post read. WATCH THE TRAILER FOR ‘AM I RACIST?’ — A MATT WALSH COMEDY ON DEI “BREAKING: A biological male just won an Olympic Gold medal in a women’s boxing competition. Congrats to everyone who supported this travesty,” he added. When someone tried to claim the boxer was a female, Morgan shut them down by pointing out the facts. “Imane was banned from the World Championships after testing positive for male XY chromosomes.” “[Imane] didn’t appeal it,” he added. “If [Imane’s] a biological woman, [Imane] should take another test now and prove it. Spoiler alert: [Imane] won’t.” Former collegiate female swimmer and vocal advocate for women’s rights in sports, Riley Gaines, wrote on X that “Khelif (XY) dominated World Champion Lang Liu (XX) to win an Olympic gold medal.” “Let me repeat that: a MALE has taken a WOMAN’S Olympic gold,” Gaines wrote. “This is what they call this ‘progress,’” she added. “It’s the ultimate betrayal of fairness, safety, and women by [IOCmedia].” The official social media account for the Independent Women’s Forum wrote on its post, “BREAKING: A MALE has taken a women’s Olympic gold in boxing.” “The [iocmedia’s] decision to let Imane Khelif (XY) compete is a betrayal to women & fairness + safety,” it added. “Yang Liu is the deserving winner of the gold.  #Olympics #IStandWithYangLiu.” Khelif previously failed gender eligibility tests by the International Boxing Association (IBA), but was allowed by the IOC (International Olympic Committee) to compete against biological women in the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Presidential Candidate Kamala Harris has selected Mostly Peaceful Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate. Mostly Peaceful Walz won the spot after Kamala rejected Pennsylvania Governor Joshua Shapiro. The rejection of Shapiro was not due to anti-Semitism according to DNC Spokesman Mohammed Akhbar Jihad Mohammed Jihad Akhbar. Akhbar said Kamala was just worried Shapiro might be mistaken for a Jew by Democrats and other people who don’t like Jews. Shapiro had tried to circumvent the issue by changing his name to O’Connor and publicly eating a ham and cheese sandwich but his efforts failed when Democrat operatives discovered an op-ed he had written in college in which he said a Palestine-Israel two state solution might be difficult since everyone in Palestine has sworn to murder everyone in Israel. Between bites of his ham and cheese sandwich, Governor O’Connor apologized for the op-ed, saying he had written it when he was young and still believed honesty was the best policy. He also apologized for serving in the Israeli Defense Forces under the mistaken impression IDF stood for International Disney Funhouse, and he apologized for praying in Hebrew saying he could have sworn it was Latin. But after much thoughtful deliberation, Democrats still felt there was just something a little Jewy about the guy, and sent him home, saying his integrity would be returned to him at a later date, if they could find it. So the position fell to Mostly Peaceful Tim Walz, who earned his nickname after allowing Minneapolis to burn to the ground during the mostly peaceful George Floyd riots. Governor Mostly said he would have sent the National Guard into Minneapolis sooner, but his wife was enjoying the smell of America in flames and he just loves that woman so, so much. WATCH: The Andrew Klavan Show Journalists and other Democrats immediately went to work trying to frame Governor Mostly as a moderate, describing him with words like “folksy,” “Mid-Western” and “not-entirely-Stalinist.” An editorial in the New York Times, a former newspaper, said, “Progressivism is great, but Governor Mostly Peaceful is not progressive, but if he were it would be great, but he’s absolutely not, though it’s totally great he is, if he were, which we assure you he isn’t, but it’s a great thing to be, though he’s not.” Still there are some signs that the Mostly Peaceful folksy Midwesterner might be just a tad to the left of, say, the people he allowed to burn down Minneapolis. For instance, Governor Mostly once said, “One man’s socialism is another man’s neighborliness,” — which, of course, is true if another man’s neighbor steals all his money at gunpoint and distributes it among his political allies. Governor Mostly also signed a bill allowing Minnesota doctors to cut off a child’s sexual organs if the child believes he’s the opposite sex. Kids who believe they’re pirates can also have one eye removed and one of their legs replaced with a wooden peg. And if they believe they’re Superman, doctors are allowed to throw them off the top of a building. The law — called the Fantasy Affirming Care Act — was largely written by Richard Levine on the walls of his cell in Arkham Asylum, before he escaped to resume his reign of terror as supervillain Admiral Rachel. Some Minnesotans protested the Fantasy Affirming Care Act, saying it robbed parents of their rights, but those protestors fell silent after Mostly Peaceful Governor Tim Walz passed a new abortion law, allowing a child to be aborted right up until the moment he learned not to criticize Mostly Peaceful Governor Tim Walz. Governor Mostly said the law, called the Cat Lady Affirming Care Act, was meant to ensure Minnesota women would have no stake in the future, and would therefore feel perfectly comfortable with socialism. Governor Mostly made his first appearance as a VP candidate at a huge rally of Democrats who were absolutely thrilled to be voting for animate, sentient human beings whoever the hell they were. As the governor spoke, one enthusiastic voter told reporters, “I am so happy we have candidates who will continue the policies that have left America weak and broke on the verge of World War III. And now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to go join my husband onstage.” * * * Andrew Klavan is the host of “The Andrew Klavan Show” at The Daily Wire.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis slammed far-left Minnesota Governor Tim Walz during a press conference this week for making claims that run contrary to the actions that he has taken as governor. DeSantis said that a lot of people have approached him and asked him his thoughts about Walz. “As Florida governor, I learn a lot about other states because when people leave those states, they tell me why they left those states,” he said. “I remember during COVID, the absolute frustration that people had moving from Minnesota because of how they were being treated.” “This is a guy who’s out there with a line in his stump speech saying, ‘Our neighbors can do what they want, mind your own damn business,'” he continued. “Why did you set up a snitch hotline for neighbors to report on their neighbors for violating your draconian COVID restrictions? That’s not minding your own damn business! That’s government overreach.” “And he’ll say, ‘Make your own healthcare choices.’ That’s fine, great,” he continued. “Then why did he impose a mandate to take an experimental MRNA Covid shot on your people? He did that for all state employees. I don’t think it was constitutional, it certainly wasn’t giving them an option for something that just came on the market. Are you kidding me? This is absolutely ridiculous. And on and on it goes about the policies that were done that have given them a net decrease in population.” WATCH THE TRAILER FOR ‘AM I RACIST?’ — A MATT WALSH COMEDY ON DEI WATCH: Holy Sh-t… ?? “Walz didn’t mind his own damn business” @RonDeSantis Ron DeSantis absolutely roasts @Tim_Walz on his COVID “snitch line” while casually handing out an 8 million dollar grant for Miami’s brand new international Soccer Stadium and tourist district. pic.twitter.com/CIp0XCR4Lo — MattA (@MattAAW) August 8, 2024

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz faces mounting criticism for his administration’s allocation of federal COVID-19 relief funds, which were used on projects unrelated to pandemic recovery. This revelation comes as Walz has been chosen as Vice President Kamala Harris' running mate, bringing renewed attention to his actions during the pandemic. Reports indicate that significant portions of the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan (ARP) funds, which were intended to mitigate the impacts of COVID-19, were instead spent on unrelated expenditures. Notable among these were $4.3 million used to cover parking costs at state facilities for employees and visitors. NEW: Florida Governor Ron DeSantis shreds Tim Walz for setting up a COVID hotline so neighbors could snitch on each other. The comment came after Walz said people should “respect” their neighbors and “mind their own d*mn business.” “He's got this line in the stump speech… pic.twitter.com/Yb4mBMoWGE — Collin Rugg (@CollinRugg) August 9, 2024 Additionally, $1 million was allocated for a feasibility study on paid family leave, and another $1 million was directed towards a statewide gun safety advertising campaign. These expenditures have raised eyebrows, with critics arguing that they violate the spirit of the relief funds intended for direct pandemic-related needs. The misuse of these funds does not end there. Over $7.8 million was distributed to two homeless shelters in the Twin Cities, which, while addressing a social issue, did not directly correlate with pandemic recovery efforts. Similarly, nearly $1 million was earmarked for small business development programs targeting minority- and women-owned businesses, and $1.24 million was funneled into Minnesota’s "Grow Your Own" program, which focuses on recruiting teachers and school employees​. A few excerpts from Walz's Covid snitch line, just in case you forgot how insane that was. pic.twitter.com/GXoNPRpOhO — Nick Majerus (@njmajerus) August 6, 2024 Critics are particularly concerned about larger line items, such as the $11 million allocated to the Minnesota Zoo and $3.8 million to the Science Museum of Minnesota, which were used to cover operating and maintenance costs. While these institutions were undoubtedly impacted by the pandemic, the justification for using federal COVID-19 relief funds for their expenses remains questionable. Other questionable expenditures include a $237,000 allocation for a "movie theater relief grant program," which, although related to pandemic shutdowns, also draws scrutiny for its relevance to urgent public health needs. The controversy around Walz’s management of the ARP funds is further fueled by the fact that Minnesota had obligated more than 99% of its share of stimulus cash by September 2023. This rapid expenditure raises concerns about the effectiveness and appropriateness of how the funds were used. Some analysts suggest that the ARP funds were treated more like a slush fund than a targeted response to a public health crisis, a sentiment echoed by many Minnesotans and critics alike. Walz's actions are part of a broader pattern observed in several states where COVID-19 relief funds have been spent on projects that, while potentially valuable, were not directly related to addressing the pandemic. The flexibility provided to states in spending these funds has led to varied interpretations of what constitutes an appropriate use of the money. However, the extent to which Minnesota used these funds for non-pandemic-related expenses has placed Walz's administration under intense scrutiny. As the debate continues, the question remains whether these expenditures will impact Walz's political future, particularly in the high-stakes arena of national politics. For now, the controversy serves as a reminder of the challenges in ensuring that taxpayer dollars are used as intended, especially during times of crisis​. The post Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz Accused of Misusing COVID Funds for Unrelated Expenses appeared first on The Conservative Brief.

Democratic strategist James Carville has issued a stern warning to his party about the challenges Vice President Kamala Harris will face in her presidential bid. Carville's comments come as Democrats celebrate Harris's presumptive nomination following President Joe Biden's withdrawal from the race. Carville, known for his blunt assessments, compared the current enthusiasm to a "giddy honeymoon" that won't last. He cautioned Democrats to temper their excitement, predicting that Harris's campaign will soon face severe attacks from Republicans. "I have to be the skunk at the garden party. This is too triumphalist. Everybody’s giddy. I look at the coverage and it’s great. But if we don’t win the election, we haven’t done anything. This kind of giddy elation is not going to be very helpful much longer ’cause that’s not what we’re going to be faced with," Carville stated​​.

"I think the Vice President, to put it in athletic terms, needs a really good cutman in the corner, because she’s getting ready to get cut," he continued. "It’s still the same country. It might be a different mood, and all I’m saying is good. Bang your helmets against the locker, it’s fine. But still, when you go out there, you’re facing Alabama. Just get ready because these Republicans, you’re right, they got caught off guard, but they’re going to get their sea legs and we’re having to get a campaign—a whole campaign started​.

They’re coming. They were hit real bad, they were confused, but they’re getting un-confused now and Democrats have got to get ready." His remarks highlight the tough road ahead for Harris, emphasizing the need for Democrats to stay vigilant and prepared​​. The strategist also criticized efforts to sanitize Harris's record, noting that Republicans will focus heavily on her tenure as California's attorney general and her time as vice president. "There is a massive effort to cover up her radical left-wing record," he asserted, warning that the current surge of fundraising and enthusiasm for Harris might not last​. Carville's candid remarks serve as a wake-up call for Democrats, reminding them that the real battle lies ahead and urging them to be ready for the onslaught of attacks that are likely to come their way.
