Piers Morgan and Bill Maher say Riley Gaines is standing up for female athletes worldwide, Lia Thomas has no place in women's swimming, and it's wrong to allow transgender athletes to decimate women's sports records:
Rep. Katie Porter: "[Riley Gaines] is doing this for likes and clicks."
Piers Morgan: "All I've seen her do is stand up for women's rights. She actually competed against Lia Thomas, and it was obviously unfair. Lia Thomas won one of the NCAA races by 50 seconds against a bunch of biological females who simply could not keep up. That cannot be right. That cannot be fair."
Katie Porter: "Riley is speaking up for herself, and that is her prerogative."
Piers Morgan: "I think she's speaking up for every female athlete in the world."
Bill Maher: "There seem to be so many instances where wokeness is the opposite of what I grew up as liberalism. Liberalism was, let's give the women an equal shot. This is, let's put a male in the swimming pool with the women."
Piers Morgan: "You cannot continue to allow transgender athletes to decimate women's records, in some cases irrevocably. It's just not fair."

While the Wall focuses on those who died in Vietnam, this one pays tribute to those who returned.

With peace breaking out across the Middle East, I figured it would be a good time to revisit all of the people who told us confidently that @realDonaldTrump was leading us to disaster.
I think some apologies are in order. What say you, @SamanthaJPower?

The widespread failure to anticipate the deadly spread of Covid 19 can be traced largely to one thing: China’s mendacity from the start. The extent of it, catalogued here by @jimgeraghty, is stunning. nationalreview.com/the-morni…

Perhaps elect new leadership in #Connecticut? The value proposition is not what it once was - no wonder corporations and residents are voting with their feet...and leaving. Sad
Well of course it wasn't like we just left Connecticut. Obviously we had to make sure we took full advantage of the public education for our kids before we went to a state with no income tax

Dear @optimum, when do you expect to resolve the technical issue that affects ability to access email over MS Outlook? Two days and counting, with no statement on your website about the synchronization issue. Thanks.
Devastating & detailed review of many media blunders. Sad
