El-Sayed calls out Jesse Watters for his fixation on culture war issues instead of pocketbook topics

Well done. Calling out the bullshit and getting under their skin in the process. Just further reveals how the right wing is full of shit with nothing to stand on for real life issues. These out of touch assholes are simply gonna keep on shrinking their intended audience. The bullying is getting old.

El-Sayed isn't filibustering. He's being asked a stupid fucking question that is not actually a "big thing." It's a contrived issue invented by a small group of bigots, and Jesse is asking in bad faith.

I don't give a shit who plays in what sport. What about the soaring cost of literally everything, the unpaid for tax breaks for the trillionaire, billionaires, & huge corporations. What about the hidden Epstein files! How about releasing the fully unredacted Epstein files! Watters can suck it!

I saw something interesting there…. Watters barely tried talking over El-Sayed as he went through the actual issues. At the end of the clip, a token effort to attack the transgender population. Either Watters had a bad night, or maybe just maybe another rat senses a sinking ship…

I agree. But he still can try to talk over him. Sure Michiganders are nigh impossible to talk over (I’m married to one, and have aunts and uncles born there) but you still have to try. It’s also only one data point. More is needed to see.

“I’m interested if you think men should play in women’s sports. It’s a big issue!” Actually it’s not a big issue. But Jesse is on the losing end of all economic, corruption, and foreign policy questions, so the entire right wing media bubble is a one trick pony and people are bored to tears with it.

Who can play what sports is only a “big thing” because MAGA folks want to distract us all from the really big issues like rising costs, exploding income inequality, unnecessary wars, outdated trade policies, etc

Sports is one segment of the entertainment industry. Exxon alone, makes more money than the entire entertainment industry, while bringing us to extinction - maybe that’s worth discussing? He‘s a clueless Little League Dad, sucking all the fun out of sports, to fulfill phallic fantasies.

These fucking Magas just can’t seem to let this go. I’d say beating a dead horse if it wasn’t for the fact that they’re also traumatizing and killing thousands of wild native horses. Fuck this whole project 2025 and everyone attached to it.

This is what we might call an intellectually unfair fight. But Jesse bring on your right-wing bullshit. Abdul will hand you your jockstrap and your FanDuel betting money when it’s over.

Future Sen Abdul El-Sayed. A trained physician. Epidemiologist. Rhodes Scholar-Enduring the 2nd grade antics of Ms Jesse “LITTLE”Waters-Propaganda Fox Fascist Regime network. Ms Waters wants to talk about “men in women’s sports” and not the REALITY of hunger and FURY of Americans. Buckle up! #Nov’26

You have an idiot in a discussion with a commencement speaker at his college graduation who went on to be a Rhodes Scholar and then obtain a medical doctor degree. What else did we expect?

This is the way to handle to ridiculous culture war topics they use as a deflection and fear tactic. Dont answer it and move on to shit that matters

If maga saw it at least it's an honest exchange with an opposing viewpoint. I don't think they see much of that from these well paid agitators. Dr. El-Sayed is very well spoken & makes excellent points. Temu Tucker should be ashamed of himself. He talks about 10 people out of 340 million.

A great point to follow up in the next time. Who’s making it a big thing? How many kids have been abused by transgender athletes? There seems to be a growing list of Republicans accused and found guilty of pedophilia. Why isn’t that a big thing?

Hmmm… people can’t afford groceries, gas, rent, etc., yet Fox “News” is obsessed with men in women’s sports. That is somehow more important to Jesse Watters than people eating, having a roof over their head and driving around.

Yep, it's that name. My daughter never heard of him so she looked him up. Her comment at first was "well, after 9/11..." - but then she read about him and his heritage and changed her mind. She even said "he's a very nice looking man"... indeed he is - and very intelligent.

I played sports too, but I think it's important to note that the reason that Watters says "it's a big deal" is because Fox News's target demographic is people who think that high school sports are more important than the US's cost of living or war crimes or healthcare, i.e. idiots

Jesse Watters sounds like he is desperately trying to channel Dennis Miller. As I'm watching all these clips, this is truly comical how he has so obviously studied the Miller delivery. Laughable. Such a moron.

SHUT THE FUCK UP WATTERS, YOU LOOK LIKE YOU DRIVE AROUND YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD IN AN UNMARKED VAN WITH THE WORDS FREE CANDY SPRAY PAINTED ON THE SIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Maybe we can stop gendering sports....and make this the moot point it should be.... I maintain that women CAN hold their own along with men....you know like they do in the military, in the rest of the world, like they were told they couldn't for generations.

Jesse Watters is a vile excuse for a human being!! Why are the Rethuglicans and Faux Nooz so fixated on Trans people when they are literally 1 % of the population!! Focused on the wrong 1 % that's what!!! #TaxTheRich

Kind of a big thing? With who exactly? A small percentage of unevolved troglodytes? Who the fuck cares what a bunch of selfish, emotionally stunted morons who voted for a pedophile. They’re not too worried about grown men assaulting and torturing young girls though. Their opinions mean fuck all.

Fux Noise telling the American electorate what they may & may NOT be concerned about, and when the candidate disagrees with the BS culture war shtick, THEY are accused of "fillibustering".

"I don't want to talk about the issues impacting millions of American families. I want to talk about the 12 trans athletes that are dealing with the 'big issue' that is only a big issue because I got on TV and made it a big issue."

The “issues” that jesse keeps harping on are not things that people care about… Groceries. Gas prices. Healthcare ! IRAN WAR! Epstein Files… Now THOSE are REAL issues.

I think the idea, and I don't disagree with it though I'm not sure how well it works, is to let Fox viewers see the real person instead of the scary brown caricature that Fox typically presents him as. He got his line at the end about money out of politics and into pockets, so maybe a small benefit

A manufactured crisis is all they've got.... Let them name ONE MAN who has been even remotely successful in infiltrating women's sports...they can't. When I was in HS the best tennis player in school was A GIRL...and she played #1 for the boys team. She beat all the boys to earn the spot...late 70s!

"It's a big issue?" Experts and officials estimate that fewer than 100 transgender women (people assigned male at birth who identify as women) play women's sports nationally. El-Sayed was right, let the sports governing bodies make the call. A big issue is 12 million lost their healthcare.

And the correct answer to “Aren’t you worried about letting your girls play with trans athletes” is always, “No, I let my kids play with all genders and identities, don’t you?” “Do you check what the gender identities are of your kids’ friends? Of course not, because that’s ridiculous and creepy.”

These weirdos actually think they're "the news." And dumb old white people like my Dad do, too. While Medicare pays for his new pacemaker, he stresses about white farmers being killed in South Africa.

Ok fine if this is such a big issue then ALL sports need to be cancelled until further notice until this issue is resolved Oh it not that serious? Cool then shutting up is free, use it all day next issue!

Culture war issues do affect the pocket book, like trans care which is expensive and it was his side who really pushed these culture wars on everybody. If he can't discuss them properly then maybe get someone who can. A lot of Dems seem to not be able to follow through with the causes they started

The culture war is what used to matter to MAGA voters now that we have $4.00 gas and expensive everything this may be a moot point for them now.

0.6 % of the US adult population is trans. That’s it. 1.4 million people. That’s it. Out of approximately 380,000,000 total US population. That’s who they’re terrorizing. Because it riles their base. F*ck Fox News. F*ck MAGA. and F*ck Donald Trump.

I mean.. we can call it culture wars.. but then you purposefully ignored the foreign state actors, international criminal cabal and racketeering to which all of this is tied to. Are will still dumbing this sh!t down? They went all in. They killed. They're targeting you Y'all still on the fence?

social issues are all they have. The WNBA thing thats going on right now is def an op for midterms. The GOP wants to talk about anything and everything except the real issues: Economy, Affordability, Iran, Epstein. Hammer those 4 issues

This isn't even a real social issue. It's made-up bullshit. There are only a handful of transgendered athletes participating in women's sports in the entire country.

The only place I see overflowing anger is in Facebook comments on articles about this, particularly from LGBTQ-aligned publications. It’s like all the Putin and Zuck bots concentrate there. #FSB #psyopHate

Men playing in women’s sports is really only a huge priority these days to people like jesse watters. Fox can’t address the tariff war, trump’s plummeting popularity, rising gas prices, the possibility of a devastating trade war with Canada. But men in women’s sports? That’s his power. Pitiful.

A couple of weeks ago I was at a family bbq, with mostly Trump supporting Republicans family. To my shock and surprise, the whole family, both men and women, got together and played baseball together I couldn't believe my eyes Women pitching to men. Men catching for women. it was anarchy

Thank you!!! Don’t we have high school sports commissions to decide who plays in their leagues? I can’t afford a fuckin MRI. Let the high school league make a decision on who plays then start working on my god damn healthcare like a fucking senator!!!
