In a recent showdown between a former NCAA swimmer and a Nebraska state senator, Riley Gaines didn’t hold back in defending women’s sports against the intrusion of “transgender” males. And boy, did she make a splash!
Gaines, who had previously competed against transgender athletes like Will “Lia” Thomas, took to the stage in front of over 1,000 spectators in Nebraska to emphasize the importance of preserving the integrity of women’s sports. Republican Senator Pete Ricketts, a stand-up guy, proudly stood with Gaines, showing his support for her cause. Finally, someone who understands the value of fair competition!
While the event received coverage from the Lincoln Journal Star, one Democrat-turned-Independent state senator named Megan Hunt couldn’t resist taking a swipe at Gaines, insinuating that she was just a bitter loser who couldn’t handle not winning a trophy. How typical of the liberal elite to dismiss valid concerns with such condescension! But Gaines wasn’t having any of it.
With a measured and eloquent response, Gaines made it clear that her fight had never been about a measly trophy. It was about sending the right message to young, aspiring athletes in Nebraska. We can’t have 6’4″ males pretending to be women dominating women’s sports! It’s unfair and undermines the hard work of genuine female athletes. Sorry, Senator Hunt, but the “sore loser” argument just doesn’t hold water here.
Proud to stand with @Riley_Gaines_ & @jordybahl tonight.

But let’s not forget the true gravity of the situation. Townhall has been sounding the alarm on the rampant invasion of women’s sports by biological males who identify as transgender. They’re taking over everything, from sports to beauty pageants and even snagging lucrative deals from makeup and lingerie companies. This cultural shift is not just threatening women’s rights, it’s eroding the very essence of what it means to compete on a level playing field.
The catalyst for this uproar was none other than Will “Lia” Thomas, who competed on the women’s swim team at the University of Pennsylvania after spending three years on the men’s team. Talk about an unfair advantage! Thomas managed to rob biological women of their rightful opportunities and even won races against them. And when he tied with Gaines at the NCAA championships, he was allowed to take the trophy home, while she was left empty-handed. Now that’s a heartbreaking injustice.
It’s high time we put an end to this madness and protect the sanctity of women’s sports. Nebraskan girls deserve better than lawmakers who can’t see the blatant unfairness staring them in the face. Let’s hope Riley Gaines’ stand will inspire others to join the fight and restore integrity and fairness to the world of sports. And hey, maybe we’ll even see some trophies going to the actual winners, instead of those who refuse to play by the rules.
