Enes Kanter Freedom Files Federal Lawsuit Against Chicago Sky and City of Chicago After Ejection Over “Woman” T-Shirt — Demands Jury Trial

Former NBA star and human-rights activist Enes Kanter Freedom has filed a federal lawsuit after he was ejected from a Chicago Sky game for daring to wear a shirt stating a basic biological fact.

The 15-page complaint was filed Wednesday in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois.

Freedom named Chicago Women’s Basketball Operations, LLC, the company operating the Chicago Sky, the Metropolitan Pier and Exposition Authority, and the City of Chicago as defendants.

The lawsuit seeks injunctive relief and damages and demands a jury trial.

Freedom announced the legal action on X:

“Just filed a federal complaint.

“I’m taking legal action over my ejection from the @chicagosky game while peacefully exercising my First Amendment rights.

“My T-shirt did what the whole @WNBA apparently couldn’t: define a woman.

“No threats. No violence. Just biology. And somehow, that required a security escort.

“You don’t have to agree with my speech, but you don’t get to silence me for it.

“I will not be intimidated. I will not be silenced. I will continue to stand for women and defend free speech.”

Biden Judge Dismisses Trump DOJ Lawsuit Challenging California Policy Allowing Biological Males to Compete in Girls’ Sports

A Biden-appointed federal judge has dismissed the Trump Justice Department’s lawsuit challenging California’s policy allowing transgender-identifying biological males to compete on girls’ school sports teams.

U.S. District Judge Cynthia Valenzuela of the Central District of California dismissed the Justice Department’s case against the California Department of Education and the California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) with prejudice, handing California officials a major victory in their ongoing battle with the Trump administration over women’s sports, the New York Post reported.

Valenzuela was nominated to the federal bench by Joe Biden and confirmed by the Democrat-controlled Senate in December 2024.

The Trump Justice Department filed the lawsuit in July 2025, accusing California education officials and the CIF of violating Title IX by allowing biological males who identify as female to compete against girls.

According to the DOJ complaint, California’s policies deprive female athletes of equal athletic opportunities by forcing them to compete against biological males for victories, podium placements, recognition, and potentially college opportunities.

But Valenzuela rejected the administration’s argument.

The Biden judge concluded that California had not received sufficiently clear notice that federal education funding was conditioned on excluding transgender-identifying biological males from girls’ athletic teams.

Meet Toronto Police Sgt. Blain Young: “paid duty hog” and censorious thug

You may recall that we recently attended a WNBA game at Scotiabank Arena, where the Toronto Tempo were hosting the Indiana Fever. We brought along our big, beautiful billboard truck. We were again taking a stand against “transanity” — you know, that intersection in which radical transgenderism collides with insanity.

So it was we displayed our “keep female sports female” messaging. That’s because the woefully woke cowards running the WNBA are struggling with the definition of the word “woman”.

Yes, the “W” in WNBA stands for “Women’s”. But the powers-that-be in the WNBA — ranging from the Commissioner to the head of the players’ association — are aghast when it comes to defining what a woman is.

Is a woman a person born female at birth? Or is a woman a dude, with his wedding tackle still firmly affixed, claiming to be a woman? Oh, what to do, what to do?

Alas, in the name of inclusion, the WNBA is terrified to take a principled stance based on biology because doing so might offend the lunatic fringe. And so it is that the WNBA is at risk of having men pretending to be women joining the league. Indeed, two ex-NBA players have said they are making themselves available at the WNBA draft later this year. The WNBA is at risk of becoming a bad joke without a punchline.

Now, we know the vast majority of people reject transanity. And we know that even a Grade 1 student knows the difference between a man and a woman. But get this: it appears that the Toronto Police Service is all-in when it comes to radical transgenderism. Indeed, no fewer than seven police officers immediately swarmed our truck once it stopped by Scotiabank Arena!

You’d be hard pressed to find a more woke police force than the Toronto Police Service. This is not conjecture. Do you know all Toronto police officers have to take a transgender training module? Do you know there’s a transgender police cruiser in the fleet, and its purpose is to give free rides to transgenders?

You see, the woke brass at the Toronto Police Service subscribe to a mantra. No, that mantra is not “To serve and protect”. Rather, the new and improved whiz-bang slogan of the TPS is: “If it’s trans it’s good, and if it’s good it’s trans.”

So it was that our truck was deemed to be displaying a hateful message. Apparently, our messages were offensive to confused men who can’t figure out their gender. And it was illicitly shutdown.

In the aftermath of this incident, we have an update on the ringleader of those censorious thugs. His name is Sergeant Blain Young.

Here’s what you need to know about Blain Young. For starters, according to our sources, he is a “paid duty hog.” Meaning that Blain is constantly taking paid duty assignments. Not to ensure public safety, mind you, but to bolster his bank account.

And this hog is indeed one busy beaver. Last year, he earned more than $357,000 plus benefits. That’s astonishing.

We would further argue that the Toronto Police has never enriched a cop for being so incompetent.

Oh, it’s not just the bogus tickets Blain’s minions handed out to our truck driver, Mark. An incredible incident from Auguust 3, 2022 saw Young in his police SUV seeking to ticket cyclists in High Park. Because, you see, in crime-infested Toronto, people riding their bicycles too fast in a park is a top priority for law enforcement. We have video evidence of Blain blowing through a stop sign — and hitting a cyclist in the process.

His excuse? The sun was in his eyes. Try using that line next time you’re pulled over for a traffic violation.

Networks Were Ordered to Stop Filming Trump—and They Didn’t Protest the Illegal Censorship

“Cameras off the president right now.”

This direct command could be heard this weekend on the live broadcast of the Freedom 250 Grand Prix, an IndyCar street race orchestrated by President Donald Trump’s administration as part of its MAGA-branded commemoration of the nation’s historic anniversary. The entire three-hour debacle was live-broadcast on Fox, alongside footage of Trump and First Lady Melania Trump as they basked in the front-row presidential suite.

At one point, the presidential couple engaged in heated conversation—possibly regarding, some speculated (Mercury News, 8/24/26), the presence of Trump’s personal assistant Natalie Harp, with whom he has an unusually close relationship. As this discussion transpired, a terse command to the camera operator could be heard: “I need the cameras off the president right now. Cameras off the president right now. Turn the cameras.”

A camera operator replied, “We’re the pool with President Trump for the entire network—Fox, CNN, CBS, ABC.”

The response was unyielding: “I understand that. We’ve asked you to turn the cameras off of the presidential suite.”

The command—from a staffer wearing an IndyCar uniform—was an astonishing call for press censorship on behalf of Trump, not to mention a direct violation of the First Amendment freedom of press.

As Brendan Keefe, an award-winning investigative reporter for Atlanta News First, posted on X (8/23/26):

You can tell us where we can be. You cannot tell us what to film. “Cameras off” is an unlawful order from government, especially when recording an elected official…. The First Amendment allows the press to record in any place they’re allowed to be present.

Even more surprising, however, is that none of the major outlets—including the outlets for which the camera person was working—have acknowledged this blatant assault on the freedom of the press. Coverage of the Grand Prix from networks Fox, CBS and ABC operated as usual, highlighting race victories and logistics. CNN correspondent Brian Todd (8/23/26) reported that the race was “a real success.”

Only independent outlets, such as Atlanta Black Star, Raw Story and Crooks & Liars, or overseas-based publications like the British-based Mirror or Spanish sports outlet Diario AS, have published pieces highlighting the infringement. So why have establishment media stayed silent?

One explanation is a realistic fear of government retaliation. After the FCC’s failed efforts last year to cancel ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live! for critical comments about Charlie Kirk—a move that was disparaged even by conservatives—the organization mounted a retaliatory campaign, slapping ABC with an unprecedented and mandatory years-early license renewal review. The ordeal has since snowballed into a full-blown lawsuit against the FCC from ABC’s parent company Disney.

But the media have an obligation to act as watchdogs, to report on those in power and keep the public informed on wrongdoing and corruption. Corporate media have billions of dollars at their disposal, and have more resources than any other media format to stand up to the administration. When corporate media are collectively silent about violations of their press freedoms, ordinary people can hardly rely on them to stand up for the rest of us.

OUTRAGE: WNBA Store Blocks “Jesus Christ” on Custom Jersey — While “Muhammad” and “Allahu Akbar” Clear Initial Filter

The leftist WNBA and its official store just delivered another gut punch to traditional America.

The official WNBA Store appears to have some explaining to do after its customization system rejected the name “Jesus Christ” and the phrase “Jesus is God” while allowing Islamic names and phrases to pass through its initial screening filter.

The apparent double standard exploded across social media after Libs of TikTok tested the WNBA’s online custom-jersey system.

“The WNBA store BANS you from customizing a jersey with the name ‘Jesus Christ,’” Libs of TikTok reported, adding that the system did not immediately reject “Muhammad” or “Allahu Akbar.”

And the results were not difficult to reproduce.

The Gateway Pundit conducted a live test on Tuesday on an official WNBA Store Chicago Sky custom jersey, which produced the same disturbing discrepancy.

WNBA Says Former NBA Stars Enes Kanter Freedom and Royce White Are Ineligible After They Announce They ‘Identify as Women’ and Enter Draft

The WNBA has ruled that former NBA players Enes Kanter Freedom and Royce White are ineligible to enter the league’s draft or play in the women’s circuit after both men announced they identify as women and formally declared for the 2027 draft.

The league has reportedly dismissed the moves as publicity stunts intended to mock the organization.

According to reports from Front Office Sports, the WNBA stated it “is not going to give oxygen to efforts designed to mock the league or use this topic to demean and marginalize others” and “will not allow outside pressure or manufactured controversy to dictate league processes.”

The collective bargaining agreement specifies that only women are eligible, though it contains no further language defining sex or gender identity.

Kanter Freedom and White decided to put those rules to the test by claiming they suddenly decided they identify as women.

San Francisco 49ers owner Jed York was arrested in a trailer park prostitution bust over the weekend.

York, 46, was arrested in East Palestine, Ohio, and charged with engaging in prostitution.

According to reports, York used an online prostitution site to “arrange sexual activity with a female in exchange for $140.”

The charge was later amended to disorderly conduct.

York is married and has two sons.

The New York Post reported:

San Francisco 49ers owner Jed York was arrested on suspicion of engaging in prostitution in Ohio over the weekend, the California Post confirmed.

York pleaded no contest on Monday after the state of Ohio amended the one count of engaging in prostitution to a disorderly conduct charge.

Court documents obtained by the California Post on Monday state York responded to an ad on a known prostitution website and “arranged to have sexual activity with the female in exchange for $140.”

The 46-year-old from Youngstown, Ohio was arrested in a trailer park on Sunday in East Palestine, 30 minutes south of Yorktown, and booked into Columbiana County Jail.

He was also convicted of “possessing criminal tools”, with a court filing also showing that York’s attorney stated he completed an online course.

York and his wife Danielle Belluomini have two sons, Jaxon and Brixton.

A judge sentenced York to one day in jail per each count, which will be served concurrently.

REPORT: New York Liberty Run Pro-Trans Scoreboard Message, Deny Paid Message from Group Supporting Women’s Sports

New York City’s WNBA team refused to take a paid scoreboard message from a woman who wanted to support the XX-XY movement to protect women’s sports from men identifying as women. Naturally, the team had no problem displaying pro-trans scoreboard messages.

Julie Potter, a lesbian hip-hop performer, says the New York Liberty tried to alter her message, which she paid to display at Barclays Center during the Liberty’s game against the Indiana Fever.

Potter says she has a receipt showing she paid $100 for the scoreboard message to be shown during the August 22 game, OutKick reports.

The singer adds that she asked the team to display the following message: “Thank you Jennifer Sey! XX-XY Athletics will Save the Day!”

The payment and message were accepted, Potter said, but the day before the game, she was contacted by the team and told that they would not display the message she had requested. Instead, the sales dept. told her the message they would agree to display would read, “Thank you Jennifer Sey, thank you for all you do for XX-XY Athletics.”

Potter said she told them that if they did not display the message she had paid for, she wanted to cancel it and get a refund.

Despite balking at Potter’s message, the Liberty had no problem displaying pro-transgender messages during the game.

Robot smashes Usain Bolt’s 100-meter dash world record in opening heat of World Humanoid Games

Usain Bolt, meet Lightning bolt.

A robot named Lightning just ran at the 100 meter dash in 9.32 seconds, shattering human sprinter Usain Bolt’s record.

The superhumanoid feat went down during a test run at the second World Humanoid Robot Games, which kicked off Saturday in Beijing, China, the Guardian reported.

Developed by Chinese smartphone manufacturer Honor, Lightning bolted down the track at a blistering 14.5 meters per second (around 32mph), as seen in a viral clip.

In doing so, the hot-to-trot bot eclipsed the previous World Record of 9.58 seconds set by the Bolt during his record-breaking 100-meter sprint in Berlin, Germany 2009.

During that run, the Jamaican sprinting sensation achieved a top speed of over 27mph — the fastest ever clocked by a biped until now.

Fake News New York Times Loses Defamation Lawsuit — Ordered to Pay $9.25 Million After Falsely Linking Innocent Alabama Basketball Player to Deadly Shooting

The failing New York Times just suffered a massive and historic defeat in court.

An Alabama jury on Thursday ruled that the Fake News New York Times defamed Kai Spears, a former University of Alabama Crimson Tide walk-on basketball player, and ordered the paper to pay him $9.25 million in damages, according to CBS News.

Spears was just an 18-year-old freshman walk-on when the Times swept him into a 2023 story about a fatal shooting in Tuscaloosa.

The paper’s report falsely claimed he was a passenger in a car at the scene of the January 15, 2023, killing of 23-year-old mother Jamea Harris.

Three Alabama basketball players were connected to the incident; Spears was not one of them. He was never charged with any crime and had no involvement.

After a nine-day trial in federal court in Tuscaloosa, the eight-person jury found the Times liable for defamation and false light invasion of privacy.

The original March 15, 2023 article by Times sportswriter Billy Witz relied on an anonymous source described as a “person familiar with the investigation.”

It wrongly placed Spears in the car with star player Brandon Miller when the shooting occurred. University of Alabama officials and Spears’ father immediately denied it.

The Times stuck with its story until after Spears filed suit in May 2023. Only then did the paper issue a correction admitting the passenger was actually student manager Cooper Lee, not Spears.

Spears has said the false report was “100% inaccurate” and that the writer showed “complete disregard for the truth.” He described trying to cope with being permanently linked in the public mind to a murder he had nothing to do with. His lawsuit argued the article caused severe emotional distress and mental anguish.

The Times, true to form, is spinning it as an “honest mistake.” Spokesman Charlie Stadtlander said the paper is “disappointed the jury found The Times liable for an honest mistake” and is reviewing its legal options. Jurors clearly disagreed.

This is the same New York Times that lectures the country about “disinformation” and “threats to democracy” while publishing anonymous-sourced claims that can destroy a young man’s reputation overnight.
