Anthem hater, Russian drug smuggler Brittney Griner who is back in this country after communist Joe Biden gave the “merchant of death” back to Russia in exchange for Griner has some thoughts on biological males playing in women’s sports. Griner says that not only should they be allowed to play in women’s sports, but that Griner herself will be “speaking up against that legislation” and those law expected to be passed (such as Title IX).
Brittney Griner’s wasted no time in getting political again, four months after her she was detained in Russia, as the WNBA star revealed that she thinks it’s a ‘crime’ to ban trans women from competing against their biological counterparts in sport.
Appearing at her first press conference as a Phoenix Mercury player since returning to the U.S. in December, the 32-year-old center further said that she ‘definitely will be speaking up against that legislation and those law expected to be passed,’ referring to Republicans wanting to amend Title IX as a guarantee to protect women’s sports.
‘Everyone deserve the right to play,’ Griner added, calling any other view points as a ‘threat’ to trans people as they prevent them from truly ‘being who they are.’
The basketball player’s first news conference drew more than 100 people, including Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs, members of the Mercury organization and her wife of four years, Cherelle. The athlete is also working on a memoir about her Russian captivity.
On Monday, transgender athlete Lia Thomas defended her triumphs in women’s sports, hitting out at those who only want biological women to compete against each other, including some of her former UPenn teammates.
