this is unacceptable they will only be there to harass players, and surely the league knows that, given the previous harassment from this outlet. Once again, not even doing the bare minimum to protect the peace of the labor force powering the league.
Outkick has been granted a credential for the #WNBA Finals, per source.

Cuni has been an ICE agent for a decade, so I don’t want to hear “poorly trained” again. ICE shootings and brutality are intentional acts of violence by experienced officers, not a result of poor training. #AbolishICE
NEW: Footage from Thursdays shooting shows an ICE agent in a construction vest brandishing a rifle. His name is Brenden Cuni. Federal judges have found multiple arrests involving Cuni unlawful. He has been accused of repeatedly Tasing a handcuffed man and tackling a pregnant woman in Minneapolis.

This is one of those stories that drives home just how horrifying the current administration and its immigration policies / enforcement tactics are. It’s heartbreaking and stomach turning.
ICE has abducted Senegalese WBB player Aminata Seck and won't release her. DHS 'policy' is to provide medical care to prisoners at intake, yet they admit to denying her care for an ACL injury for 1.5 months. The NCAA is letting it happen, despite its predatory recruitment of ICAs. We explain.

Right wingers love free speech unless they don’t like your speech. A piece above “Fauci Lied” (yes they put up conservative crop art too) was taken down for the safety of the artist, who has been doxxed. They are even calling her work. No one’s safety should be in question for the art they make.
A fun thing happening in crop art is that some artists are being doxxed and tracked down on their personal social media by folks who object to the subject matter of their pieces. 🙃 The fair prohibits entries under aliases, so our full names are out there. I think most of us are ok with it, for now.

This was always going to be the next step. There are no trans players in the WNBA so instead they're going after cis women who are insufficiently feminine for them.
U.S. Rep. Marlin Stutzman (R-IN) claims the WNBA is "trying not to offend some of their players who ... [are] trying to live a male lifestyle": "They protect the lesbian structure that's inside the WNBA with a male quote-unquote female relationship that are two women."
