MLB is now asking fans if they’re Republicans or Democrats… https://t.co/aNA7zJoGgI

— Citizen Free Press (@CitizenFreePres) April 24, 2021

...The league claims the surveys are for are to try trying to “gain knowledge about fan perceptions, preferences, and behaviors during the COVID-19 pandemic.” Of course, according to a recent poll done by Morning Consult, it was found, their favorability levels have completely collapsed within the Republican base.... For pro-sport Republicans, rating collapsed 35 percent, down from 47 percent to 12 percent in only a month. The poll showed the MLB used to have the “highest net favorability rating among Republicans of the four major sports leagues before the All-Star Game decision,” Morning Consult noted.

The Qataris denied the Guardian report, while the Clintons said that philanthropy shouldn’t sit in judgment on its benefactors. That’s probably what they hope voters will think about politics too

◼ WaPo: Say, those Qatari donations to the Clinton Foundation seem suspect - HotAir

...the problem for the Clintons is that all of these corrupt relationships cross traditional liberal constituencies. It’s tough to be pro-LGBT if you’re enabling regimes that throw gays off of rooftops, and it’s tough to be pro-worker when you’re shaking hands with people who are killing them by the dozen to build sports stadiums as monuments to their rule.

It might get worse for anyone associated with FIFA, perhaps including the Clintons. Former FIFA VP Jack Warner, arrested in the bribery probe, bought a political ad on Trinidad television to announce that he’s going to spill the beans on all the corruption in soccer — and that he fears for his life in doing so:

“I will no longer keep secrets for them who actively seek to destroy the country,” said Warner, who was held in jail overnight last week, but was later released on bail.

Muslim Boys Soccer Team Refuses to Play Catholic Team w/Girls On It http://t.co/kI3NfhkId0

— Daniel Greenfield (@Sultanknish) June 1, 2015

The pattern here is that Muslims not only create their own rules, but the pandering to them turns those rules into universal rules for everyone. And that’s the plan.

When there are a few Muslim teams, then everyone will have to play by these rules. Either that or deal with the uncomfortable choice between feminism and Islam. And Islam will win....

The girls on Robert F. Hall Catholic School team told CityNews they insisted on sitting out for the second half to allow the game to continue. The team went on to win 6-1 but both teams ended up advancing to the next round.

And the girls will be expected to do this again and again. Or they’ll be accused of Islamophobia.

OBAMA ADMIN OPPOSES 'RECREATIONAL FISHING AND HUNTING HERITAGE AND OPPORTUNITIES ACT'

◼ The Recreational Fishing and Hunting Heritage and Opportunities Act is Title VIII of the Sportsmen's Heritage and Recreational Enhancement (SHARE) Act of 2013, and the Obama administration "strongly opposes" it. - Awr Hawkins/Breitbart

The act is sponsored by Representative Bob Latta (R-Ohio) under the auspices of H.R. 3590. Its purpose is "to promote enjoyment of shooting, recreational, and hunting activities," which it does by "[providing] increased Federal support to facilitate the expansion of public target ranges" and opening more federally managed land to hunting.
