@KATUNews They are only excluded from Olympic competition if they can't outperform the other males in their chosen sports. That's why it's called "competition". Explain why this is an issue.

Transgender women athletes are now excluded from the Olympics after the IOC agreed to a new eligibility policy on Thursday which aligns with U.S. President Donald Trump's executive order on women's sports ahead of the 2028 Los Angeles Games. katu.com/news/nation-wo…

@Appyidap17 @espn Not anymore, clearly.

@espn so olympics now taking rules from politics playbook not sports 💀

@EmanuelsonKen @KernowAngel @sharrond62 You've been given questions, answers, and data that have refuted your beliefs. Your move.

@KernowAngel @johnatusc @sharrond62 Presented with questions challenging their beliefs, people will either: A. Simply become offended and indignant at being challenged. B. Give the question serious thought and work out an answer.

How are people this genuinely unintelligent in any form of authority or government? It takes 30 seconds of research to look at world records or Olympic results

@EmanuelsonKen @KernowAngel @sharrond62 Roughly-speaking, thousands. How many women have ever completed a 1000-pound squat?

@KernowAngel @johnatusc @sharrond62 Are they? This woman can lift 641 pounds. How many men can lift that weight?

@EmanuelsonKen @sharrond62 Yes. Women's sports are actually getting the same level of attention as men's sports. But it's irrelevant to their level of athletic performance. What's not irrelevant is physiology. Men are larger, faster, stronger, and more powerful than women. By design.

@johnatusc @sharrond62 Are you sure? We know for a fact that women's sports don't get the same level of attention as men's sports. With more attention, funding, training, supplements and incentives, is it not likely that their athletic performance would improve?

@Beavlieve @Steve8233019580 Your terms are accepted. Let’s start with the number 12…

@Steve8233019580 Rankings don’t matter. Playoff appearances, Omaha appearances, super regional appearances and natties matter.

My favorite part about the Pac 12 falling apart is how USC, Oregon, UCLA, and Washington baseball thought by joining the Big 10 one of them would magically become the best baseball program on the West Coast. #gobeavs

@EmanuelsonKen @sharrond62 The female athletes might earn as much money as the male athletes. The male athletes will be still be larger, stronger, faster, more powerful, etc. than the female athletes. Physiology isn't influenced by funding and encouragement. Period.

@sharrond62 Allow me to explain: Male sports are much better funded than female sports, and male athletes are more strongly rewarded for athletic success. If female sports were encouraged and funded at the same level as male sports, who knows what might happen? 🤷🏼‍♂️

@fawfulfan How is forcing females to compete against males anywhere fair? You've heard of Title IX, right?

Democrats should have a simple, stock answer on the trans athlete issue: "Leave it to schools and sports leagues to figure out what's fair and stop playing politics."

@fuckyouiquit @thomasglencove Until you factor in the increased benefits for those paying increased taxes. Or do you think SS is just simply a tax in spite of how it has worked since it was launched? Math is hard. Implementing policy is even harder.

@thomasglencove And the total amount of money earned over $185k is so big that eliminating the cap fully funds social security for the next 50 years. Thats how big numbers work.

Every dollar earned below $184,500 a year has a Social Security tax of 12.4%. Everything after that cap is exempt. If we lift this cap on the wealthiest earners, Social Security would be fully funded till 2070. The cap should not exist.

@SenMarkKelly Why did you put the sunset clause into legislation? Why are you lying about who caused the problems in the first place?

Trump and Republicans knew what would happen if they let health care premiums skyrocket: Americans wouldn’t be able to afford it and families would lose their insurance. Now it’s happening, and they still have no solution. We must keep fighting to bring down the cost of health care.

@sunrunner11 @SenateBudget What do you suppose will happen if we increase the max level on income for SS taxes? You understand that rich people would get more in benefits, right? Tell us again how we're the morons...

@SenateBudget I'm sure we will see MAGA MORONS on here saying they agree that millionaires should pay less.

MURRAY: Is it true that people making under $184k pay a 12.4% Social Security tax rate? DAHL: Yes. MURRAY: And the rate for someone making $1 million? DAHL: 2.2%. MURRAY: So, a 12.4% tax for people making less than $184k, but 2.2% for a millionaire or .0002% for billionaires.

@Mike_Adams_OG @ChrisCillizza So armed services has no connection with homeland security, got it.

- Zero direct homeland security or national security leadership experience - Zero background in intelligence, law enforcement, or military command - Zero prior service on DHS-specific congressional oversight committees - Zero senior federal management experience He’s now in charge of 260,000 federal employees in a department that is responsible for border security, counterterrorism coordination, cybersecurity, and disaster response.

Not a great look

@20HBCurl_Xup @SDBachmb @ChrisCillizza And that did he say that caused you to think him that way?

@johnatusc @SDBachmb @ChrisCillizza I've heard him speak.

@yassaminansari @GovernorHobbs How did you enabling tens of millions of illegal aliens (who all use water) to flood the state help? Chapter and verse…

Andy Biggs hasn't done a single thing for Arizona water - but now that he's running for governor he wants to "Make Water Great Again” by building the “Donald J. Trump Imperial Dam.” Ridiculous. We need actual leaders who have been working on this issue like @GovernorHobbs.

@20HBCurl_Xup @SDBachmb @ChrisCillizza Why do you say that?

@SDBachmb @ChrisCillizza Because he’s a meathead.

@Mike_Adams_OG @ChrisCillizza And what experience is he lacking?

@ChrisCillizza ...why? Why is this not a good look? We should have cabinet level officials with relevant experience.

@ChrisCillizza @annbauerwriter But entirely indicative.

@Elex_Michaelson “maximum access” is blackmailing USC into removing access to the candidates. It’s the Democratic (Party) way. A more misnamed organization could not possibly have been found…

Follow up statement from California Speaker Robert Rivas: “I commend President Kim for making the right call. At the core of our democracy is the principle that voters deserve maximum access to the candidates seeking their support. It’s the responsibility of institutions like USC to uphold that principle, and I'm glad they recognized this before more harm was done. I'm grateful to my Legislative colleagues for uniting on this issue. Whatever our political differences, our commitment to open and accessible elections is something we all share.”

@SpencerN_24 So, you know nothing about the Directors’ Cuo, eh? You would know about not being a serious athletic institution nor a serious academic institution since you’re a Beav.

The University of Southern California is not a serious athletic institution and hasn’t been for some time now.

@SpencerN_24 @FightOnEddie @USC_Baseball Hmmm… how did that year end? Oh yeah… you’re a Beav. You weren’t alive the last time you were in this game… usctrojans.com/sports/footbal…

@FightOnEddie @USC_Baseball Getting smacked up by Alabama on national television, wonder why they didn’t respect our conference? Lmao.

Final: OSU 12, USC 4
