Christian soccer player slammed as ‘transphobic’ for defending women’s sports
When Christian soccer player Elizabeth Eddy wrote that only women should play in the National Women’s Soccer League, her teammates called her transphobic and racist — but all she did was explain that men and women are different.
The professional soccer player for Angel City FC had her op-ed published in the New York Post, where she wrote, “I’m concerned that without clarity about who the league is for, it will lose its identity and its momentum.”
Eddy proposed specific testing methods to verify players’ eligibility, asking the NWSL to adopt a clear standard, using the example that perhaps all players should be born with ovaries as a requirement.
Another option she pointed out was SRY gene tests, which are used in boxing to determine eligibility to compete among women.
The player also cited stats from the NIH, which show measurable differences between men and women when it comes to muscle mass, bone density, and cardiovascular capacity, which directly affect competitive outcomes.
“It’s so stupid that we even have to say this,” BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey comments on “Relatable.”
“The production of testosterone is what makes the difference, not only in puberty but also in utero. So their bone density, their muscle mass, their aerobic and anaerobic capacity. Even if they go on cross-sex hormones, it is insurmountable. A woman just cannot overcome that,” Stuckey says.
“And so, she is speaking the scientific truth about this in an op-ed. Like, she didn’t even bring up any ideological argument. She brought up a scientific argument. She is a Christian. Christians are very clear on this,” she continues.
Despite her scientific argument, her teammates still went public to make sure everyone knew they vehemently disagreed.
“I really want to start off by saying that that article does not speak for this team in this locker room. I’ve had a lot of convos with my teammates in the past few days, and they are hurt, and they are harmed by the article. And also, they are disgusted by some of the things that were said in the article,” one teammate said during a press conference.
“It’s really important for me to say that. And we don’t agree with the things written for a plethora of reasons, but mostly the undertones come across as transphobic and racist as well,” she continued, pointing out that the article calls for genetic testing and has a photo of an African player featured by the headline.
“That’s very harmful, and to me it’s inherently racist because to single out this community based on them looking or being different is absolutely a problem,” she added.
Stuckey is disturbed by the teammate’s reaction, saying, “I just cannot. Racist because they dared use a picture of a black woman.”
“This sister in Christ stood up for what is good, right, and true, and protection of women and girls, and she is getting blasted for it in the comments. She’s getting blasted from her own teammates. She’s being called things that are just not true,” Stuckey says.
“They are maligning her character because she spoke to what is biologically a fact,” she adds.

ESPN’s empire is crumbling — and Netflix and Amazon are ‘ready to pounce’
ESPN’s reign as the king of sports media may be nearing its end.
BlazeTV contributor Paul Burkhardt is among those who believe this to be true, explaining that the network is “very vulnerable” as competitors like Netflix and Amazon prepare to make a “power play” that could permanently reshape the sports broadcasting landscape.
“I don’t think a lot of people are realizing — and I’ve been on this and been studying this now for probably about a year and a half — I believe ESPN is very vulnerable right now,” Burkhardt tells BlazeTV host Jason Whitlock and the rest of the panel on “Fearless.”
“And it’s the worst time for this to happen, because I think Netflix and Amazon are in a position to make the ultimate power play over the next, say, two to five years. They’ve already started to dabble into the games. They already have the leagues with them to some varying degree,” he continues.
“I think there’s a takedown about ready to happen, and I’m in line to watch it,” he adds.
Burkhardt believes that “Netflix and Amazon are ready to pounce.”
“I think that ESPN could be drunk on its success. ESPN has always had an overinflated sense of itself, particularly the on-air talent, because ESPN had such a monopoly on sports coverage that anybody you put on there was going to have the feeling of having a following,” Whitlock agrees.
“I don’t think Stephen A. Smith has a sincere following. I think he’s been forced down our throats on ESPN, but no one thinks Stephen A. Smith is talented. No one thinks he’s that informed or that insightful about sports,” he continues.
“It’s kind of reflective of the whole mentality of Hollywood and the leftist deal. … If they decide this person’s important; if they want to put Joe Biden in as president even though he’s half dead; if they decide, ‘Hey, no one likes Hillary Clinton, but we’re going to run her for president,’” he adds.

The SECRET every young man NEEDS to hear
Young men are inheriting a spiritually starving society, where they’re being sold a future of cheap pleasures, hollow heroes, and never-ending screen time.
It’s a lot of noise, and it will rob the youth of all purpose.
But Blaze Media co-founder Glenn Beck has some advice.
“If there is anything virtuous, lovely, of good report, or praiseworthy, seek those things. Don’t admire them. Don’t nod at them. Seek them. Hunt them. Chase them. Build your life around those things,” Glenn explains.
“A man who will do that, a boy, a young man who will do that, will become different, noticeably different. He will stop letting the culture feed him garbage. He stops applauding the trivial. He stops laughing at the obscene or cheering for the cruel. He will become a curator of real, lasting beauty in an age that has forgotten what beauty even looks like.”
“When other men are chasing down or holding up cynicism, this man holds up hope. When everyone around him is chasing dopamine, he chooses discipline. When others will blame their circumstance, he’ll take responsibility for his own action. When the world worships the shallow, he goes and searches for the deep.”
“You become what you seek. If you seek trash, you become trash. You seek virtue, you become a man of virtue. You seek excellence, and your life will begin to shine, not loudly, but steadily like the steel glow of a blade being forged.”
The world, Glenn says, already has a never-ending supply of “angry,” “addicted,” and “distracted” boys.
What it needs now, he explains, are men.
“Whole men. Clear-eyed men. Men whose souls are anchored to something higher than the algorithms trying to own them,” he says. “Build a life worthy of admiration. Forget about the applause. Fill your mind with words that make you wiser.”

Media LIES, claims ICE raided day care after illegal immigrant arrest
The mainstream media has yet again been caught in a lie about an illegal immigrant, this time by falsely accusing ICE of targeting a day care and traumatizing children.
“Parents want answers after feds arrest day care teacher — ‘It has destroyed us,’ one headline from the Chicago Sun-Times reads. Another reads, “Chicago mayor condemns ICE arrest of daycare teacher in front of children: ‘shocked the conscience.’”
“Was that dramatic enough?” BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales asks. “I mean, that sounds really, really dramatic. That sounds terrible,” she continues, before playing a clip of the arrest — which showed the day care teacher resisting while being led outside of the day care and then calming down.
“It turns out,” Gonzales explains, “this woman — not such a good person. … An illegal alien from Colombia, Diana Patricia Santillana Galeano.”
“So, she was here because the Biden administration released her into the United States. And last month, apparently, she reportedly paid for human smugglers to illegally bring her 17-year-old and 16-year-old children into the United States via the southern border,” she continues.
“Not sure if she knew this before — certainly she knows it now — that facilitating human smuggling is actually a crime. It’s not a good thing to enrich the coyotes’ pockets to bring a 16- and 17-year-old on a dangerous journey where there are lots of rapes and crimes that occur along the way,” she adds.
However, while the mainstream media has claimed that ICE targeted the day care specifically to drag the illegal immigrant out, the Department of Homeland Security is telling a much different story.
“ICE law enforcement did NOT target a day care. Officers attempted to conduct a targeted traffic stop of this female illegal alien from Colombia. Officers attempted to pull over this vehicle, which was registered to a female illegal alien, with sirens and emergency lights, but the male driver refused to pull the vehicle over,” DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement.
“Law enforcement pursued the vehicle before the assailant sped into a shopping plaza where he and the female passenger fled the vehicle. They ran into a day care and attempted to barricade themselves inside the day care — recklessly endangering the children inside. The illegal alien female was arrested inside a vestibule, not in the school,” she added.
“I personally think that that ire could just be turned onto the illegal and her cohort, who decided to run into the day care to seek refuge when they weren’t already there. They were completely endangering children, bringing all of these children into this situation that they didn’t have to,” Gonzales comments.
“If you want to be mad at someone for that situation,” she continues, “maybe be mad at the illegal who put the day care in that situation in the first place. But that would require critical thinking. The Democrats don’t have that. The mainstream media certainly doesn’t have that.”
“The American people are just done with this,” she adds.

Muscular Christianity: Debunking the manosphere’s lies
When women are told that the biggest issue they face is their self-esteem — not their sin — it doesn’t bring them closer to God or make them more likely to walk through the church doors on Sunday.
Instead, it leaves them feeling like they can find that kind of advice anywhere.
“Why would you go to church and sacrifice your free time if you’re going to hear the same message anywhere?” BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey asks ex-Green Beret and Virginia delegate Nick Freitas, noting that they’re simply being told what “they want to hear.”
And women aren’t the only ones being fooled.
“Do you feel like that also might be happening among the Andrew Tate acolytes of the world who say, ‘Okay, in order to attract these young men, we have to not be like Jesus was. We have to be crass, and we have to be rude, and we have to be arrogant, and we have to be materialistic, and we have to be promiscuous, and we have to talk about women like they’re objects ’cause that’s real masculinity’?” she asks.
Freitas agrees, calling the approach symbolic of the “manosphere.”
“So, I think there’s two things that we have to recognize whenever we talk about what we might call the manosphere — Andrew Tate, Justin Waller, some of these other guys, Fresh and Fit. … The first thing that we need to recognize is the reason why they resonated so much with young men was not simply because all these guys have admirable accomplishments in their own right,” he explains.
“But they tend to be strong. They tend to be wealthy, and they tend to, you know, women tend to be attracted to them, right? So, these are all things that, if you’re a young man without a spiritual basis in your life, you’re looking at these things going, ‘I want that,’” he continues.
“The most important component, though, is a lot of young men felt like those guys were sticking up for them when nobody else would,” he says, noting that “men associate loyalty with love.”
“And so, a lot of young men look at guys like Andrew Tate, and they say, ‘That guy had my back when none of you people in the church were mentioning any of this. And now the first time you want to come up and talk about the problems with masculinity, you want to bash Andrew Tate, the one guy that had my back,’” he explains.
“And so, the way I think we need to approach something like that is certainly not by excusing what I believe is disastrous, sinful, and ultimately not genuinely masculine behavior, but I think we need to recognize the source of the problem and from whence it comes,” he adds.
Freitas also explains that the “masculinity” that the manosphere pushes is “hedonistic masculinity,” which says that “you should dominate for the sake of your own pleasure.”
“Essentially, your will to power is the highest moral standard that you can appeal to. That is not in line with Christianity at all,” he says, adding that in order to be in line with Christianity it would have to be “sacrificial in nature.”
“The thing that I would tell young men is, I can appreciate that Andrew Tate is fit, right? I can appreciate that the man can fight. … But if you really want something that’s going to give you ultimate meaning and purpose, … you get that when you recognize that there is a God,” he explains.
“He has a meaning and purpose for your life,” he continues, adding, “and he requires you to be strong because it is a difficult world.”

Sara Gonzales EXPOSED Texas all-ages drag shows — and now they’re against the law
Vice President of Texas Family Project and BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales helped craft a law years ago that is finally being upheld in the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals — and it’s a really, really good one.
The law prevents drag queens and all adults from performing sexually in front of children.
“As I said, it has been tied up in the courts for years and we have been waiting for this moment. It is upheld. In the state of Texas, you cannot dance provocatively and sexually in front of young children,” Gonzales beams.
“Obviously, we worked very hard to expose these all-ages shows that were happening in the state of Texas. Those exposés, those videos, were instrumental in the fight to prevent this from happening. I worked directly with legislators to craft the language of this bill. So this is very, very personal for me,” she continues.
“And a lot of the things that we were talking about, I told them, ‘You would not believe me if I didn’t go to brunch and take video. So I’m going to do it and then I’m going to show you. And when you see it, you’re not going to be able to unsee it, and you’re going to have to pass a law about it.’ And that is what they did,” she adds.
Drag queens, or “pedophiles,” which Gonzales calls “kind of the same thing,” fought the law in the Texas courts for years.
“Here in Texas, where everyone thinks, ‘Oh, it’s so super red.’ No, actually, they had these all-ages events all over the place in Texas,” she says.
In one clip from an all-ages event, Gonzales asks a woman if she finds the show “age appropriate” for her children.
“Yeah … I’m not as conservative, but I mean, really it’s not any different than I mean Disney, and Disney, they have similar things, like it’s really not that far from it,” the woman replied.
The drag queens at this particular show were parading around with fake breasts and nipples out, sniffing and playing with their fake breasts, and asking the audience if they were “reaching for” her “titties.”
In another horrifying scene, two men were humping each other and simulating sex.
When Gonzales brought this up to another mother whose 12-year-old daughter was in attendance, the mother replied, “She goes to school. She sees simulated sex all the time.”
“Ma’am, what school are you taking your 12-year-old daughter to? I don’t think that’s in the curriculum. … It’s not appropriate for children,” Gonzales says, disgusted.
At a different all-ages event, older women were handing a child money to give to the dominatrix drag queens, before the drag queens gave away “unisex” sex toys for “all genders.”
“Isn’t that just the wholesome content that you think children should be exposed to?” Gonzales mocks.
But now it’s all over for the all-ages drag queen events.
“A lot of groomers when this bill was passed before it got tied up in the courts, they were like, ‘You know what? We’re just going to leave. We’re going to leave the state of Texas. We’re not even going to live here anymore,’” Gonzales recalls.
“You know what? Go. Please leave,” she adds.

Former NBA star Paul Pierce tells men to CHEAT on their girlfriends
Former NBA star Paul Pierce is handing out free advice from his podcast “The Truth After Dark” — but it’s advice only a fellow millionaire could take, not regular guys who listen to his podcast.
“If you really want to know if a girl love you, you need to go out and cheat on her,” Pierce said on “The Truth After Dark” podcast.
“Go cheat on her and see how she reacts. Now we going to see what’s real,” he added.
BlazeTV host Jason Whitlock and BlazeTV contributor Shemeka Michelle are not impressed with the wisdom Pierce has chosen to impart to his audience.
“That’s just dumb. You know, I don’t know what his religious affiliation or his beliefs are, but the Bible tells us that love is kind. It doesn’t dishonor others. It’s not self-seeking. And it always protects. How are you protecting her heart, her mind, her spirit, just to go out here and cheat?” Michelle says.
“It’s crazy that his podcast is called ‘The Truth.’ Where’s the truth? There’s no truth in that. And Satan is the father of lies. It’s unfortunate that all of his sons and daughters have this access to the airwaves to just push foolishness,” she continues.
“This man said, intentionally, pretty much, is what he’s saying: Go out here to cheat,” she adds. “Why would you do that to her?”
Whitlock points out that while this strategy may work for Pierce, it will lead most men’s lives to ruin.
“Most men that would live the lifestyle that he’s talking about will be so plagued by women who hate them and stalk them and try to create chaos in their life. Women that have some sort of support check that they have because they’ve had a stray baby with this person,” Whitlock says.
“It’s just bad, bad advice,” he continues.
“You start thinking you’re your own god and you did all this, and so you start passing on your level of wisdom, and it’s, you know, an inch deep at best,” he adds.

Van Jones sounds alarm over Mamdani’s fiery victory speech
New NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s celebratory speech raised alarm bells not just for Blaze Media co-founder Glenn Beck and BlazeTV host Stu Burguiere, but shockingly for liberals like Van Jones of CNN as well.
“I think the Mamdani that we saw on the campaign trail, who was a lot more calm, who was a lot warmer, who was a lot more embracing, was not present in that speech,” Jones said on CNN.
“And I think that Mamdani is the one you need to hear from tonight. There are a lot of people trying to figure out, can I get on this train with him or not? Is he going to include me? Or is he going to be more of a class warrior even in office?” Jones continued.
“I think he missed a chance tonight to open up and bring more people into the tent. I think his tone was sharp. I think he was using the microphone in a way that he was almost yelling. … I felt like there’s a little bit of a character switch here, where the warm, open, embracing guy that’s close to working people was not on stage tonight, and there was some other voice on stage,” he added.
“Huh, it’s almost like a mask has come off,” Glenn comments, unsurprised, before playing clips of Mamdani’s mask-off speech.
“So, Donald Trump, since I know you’re watching, I have four words for you: Turn the volume up,” Mamdani yelled at the cheering crowd.
“We will hold bad landlords to account, because the Donald Trumps of our city have grown far too comfortable taking advantage of their tenants. We will put an end to the culture of corruption that has allowed billionaires like Trump to evade taxation and exploit tax breaks,” he continued.
“We will stand alongside unions and expand labor protections because we know, just as Donald Trump does, that when working people have ironclad rights, the bosses who seek to extort them become very small indeed. New York will remain a city of immigrants, a city built by immigrants, powered by immigrants, and, as of tonight, led by an immigrant,” he added.
“A very angry immigrant whose own mother says he doesn’t identify as an American,” Glenn comments, before playing more of Mamdani’s speech.
“As has so often occurred, the billionaire class has sought to convince those making $30 an hour that their enemies are those earning $20 an hour. They want the people to fight amongst ourselves so that we remain distracted from the work of remaking a long-broken system. We refuse to let them dictate the rules of the game anymore. They can play by the same rules as the rest of us,” he continued, still yelling.
“And if we embrace this brave new course rather than fleeing from it, we can respond to oligarchy and authoritarianism with the strength it fears, not the appeasement it craves. After all, if anyone can show a nation betrayed by Donald Trump how to defeat him, it’s the city that gave rise to him. If there is any way to terrify a despot, it is by dismantling the very conditions that allowed him to accumulate power,” he added.
Glenn points out that capitalism is what allowed Trump to accumulate power, which means that Mamdani is saying they must dismantle capitalism.
“What he’s saying here is we have to now dismantle that system of capitalism because that’s what gave him power,” Glenn says.
“It’s going to be interesting to watch New York City over the next four years. Very, very interesting,” he adds.

ISLAMIC INFILTRATION: Muslims reveal their takeover plan
The Islamic plan to take over the U.S. is well under way, and it has been long before NYC’s new Muslim mayor, Zohran Mamdani, took office.
“Zohran Mamdani winning is a huge victory for radical Islamists everywhere, honestly, because it’s legitimizing the fact that Muslims can just, they’re just going to take over America,” BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales says on “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered.”
“And what they’re going to do is, they’re going to do it right before your very eyes. And what they know is that there are a bunch of white people who live here who are too scared to say the things that they’re actually thinking,” she continues, before playing an older clip of an Islamic man preaching to a crowd in New York City.
“We’re done hiding. We’re done. We’re done being tortured and hurt and judged. This is the correct religion. This is the religion that all of humanity needs to be a part of, Islam. And we will not stop until it enters every home,” he boomed into the microphone.
“There is no God worthy of worship except Allah,” he added.
And in another clip, Muslim Brotherhood leaders detail their plan to conquer the West.
“Seven hundred years of our trial to conquer Europe by force failed. They did something wrong, very wrong. They tried for many years to conquer Europe through wars, only wars,” one Muslim Brotherhood leader was recorded saying on a Zoom call.
In another clip, a man named Dr. Mudar Zahran explains what’s going on as “the soft Islamic conquest of the West.”
“What we couldn’t do in the last, say, 20 years now, the West is doing it for us for free, and even paying for it,” he added.
“They’re laughing in our faces,” Gonzales says.
“They are planning a takeover openly, and nobody wants to talk about it,” she adds.

Whitlock: Conservatives silenced by fear as NYC elects first Muslim mayor
Zohran Mamdani is the first Muslim mayor of New York City, and while BlazeTV host Jason Whitlock is not happy, he’s also not surprised.
“He gets to say whatever he believes. He gets to come off as authentic. He gets to describe in detail, ‘If I’m the mayor, here’s what I want to do; here’s how I want your lives to change; here are the things that I think will improve New York City,” Whitlock says.
“But if you’re on the conservative side, if you’re on the biblical conservative side, they have framed up the conversation that if you say what you think should happen, you’re racist. If you say, ‘Man, we’ve got too many Muslims over here. Man, how did 80,000 people from Somalia end up in Minnesota? How did Ilhan Omar rise to power? Why are there people, lawmakers of ours, that have dual citizenship? How come we can’t execute an America First agenda?’” he continues.
“If you ask those questions, you’re intolerant, you’re racist, you’re anti-Semitic, and most of these people don’t want to deal with the consequences,” he adds.
And because most on the right fear being called these names, they don’t stand behind their true beliefs — and they’re less likely to win elections.
“The left gets to proudly, boldly, speak their worldview. The right has been trained that if you speak your worldview too boldly, we’ll do you the same way we did Trump. Here’s Donald Trump. He’s friends with every black rapper and celebrity and athlete for years, but we framed him up as a racist,” Whitlock says.
“Here’s Charlie Kirk, a devout Christian. We framed him up as racist. We can do it to you. And there’s been bullets fired at Donald Trump. There’s been attempts to incarcerate the man. And Charlie Kirk was shot in broad daylight in front of basically all of America and all the world,” he continues.
“And most people don’t want to pay that price. They don’t. They want to carry the cross only so far,” he adds.
