Transcript
- 0:00[SPEAKER_00]: The liberal globalist order is on its brink and awakening a new conservative age.
- 0:06[SPEAKER_00]: Dr. Steve Turley, join me every day as we discover answers to today's toughest challenges and explore the re-bondalization of conservative civilization.
- 0:18[SPEAKER_00]: This is Turley Talks.
- 0:21[SPEAKER_00]: We've said it over and over again on this channel.
- 0:24[SPEAKER_00]: The left is at war with reality and reality always wins.
- 0:30[SPEAKER_00]: And the latest victim of this lesson is the UltraWoke WNBA.
- 0:35[SPEAKER_00]: They are in a full blown panic.
- 0:38[SPEAKER_00]: after two former NBA first round draft picks called their bluff on trans athletes.
- 0:44[SPEAKER_00]: This is so absolutely brilliant.
- 0:47[SPEAKER_00]: This one move by these male athletes.
- 0:50[SPEAKER_00]: This single move has blown the leagues entire woke house of cards wide open.
- 0:55[SPEAKER_00]: And now the WNBA, the women's national basketball association is scrambling to hold an emergency meeting just to figure out.
- 1:07[SPEAKER_00]: I kid you not.
- 1:08[SPEAKER_00]: Exactly.
- 1:09[SPEAKER_00]: What is?
- 1:11[SPEAKER_00]: a woman.
- 1:12[SPEAKER_00]: This takes clown world to a whole new level, but it's we're about to see reality bites back and it bites hard.
- 1:21[SPEAKER_00]: Hey gang, it's me, Dr. Steve, your Patriot Professor here to help you make sense to the madness with breaking news and analysis that you're not going to get anywhere else.
- 1:31[SPEAKER_00]: So you know what to do?
- 1:32[SPEAKER_00]: Make sure to smack that bell and subscribe button and talk about madness.
- 1:37[SPEAKER_00]: Many of you may be familiar.
- 1:39[SPEAKER_00]: With the WNBA star Sophie Cunningham, who plays guard for the Indiana fever, she let quite the fuse a few weeks back.
- 1:48[SPEAKER_00]: When an ESPN feature quoted her opposition towards biological men competing, in women's sports, she said she wanted to protect young girls both on court as well as in the locker
- 2:00[SPEAKER_00]: room, they should have to expose themselves before a biological man or compete against them.
- 2:06[SPEAKER_00]: And she doubled down the next day, calling her position, well, kind of common sense, right?
- 2:12[SPEAKER_00]: And she insisted that she would never falter in that belief, while denying any hatred toward the trans community.
- 2:18[SPEAKER_00]: Again, it has nothing to do with hatred.
- 2:22[SPEAKER_00]: It has everything to do with reality.
- 2:24[SPEAKER_00]: That's it.
- 2:26[SPEAKER_00]: you can qualify your comments all you want.
- 2:28[SPEAKER_00]: Obviously that's not going to appease the woke cult of grievance.
- 2:32[SPEAKER_00]: Her comments triggered a massive backlash in the ultra-left WNBA, I don't know if you know, but polls show that it is the most left-wing sport on the planet, but she drew public criticism from her own teammates who apparently were perfectly fine with competing against biological males, so they claim.
- 2:53[SPEAKER_00]: Now, the irony is that this controversy has exposed a rather embarrassing loophole for this league, many of these female athletes.
- 3:02[SPEAKER_00]: Apparently, we're not aware that the WNBA's newly signed collective bargaining agreement states explicitly quote, only players who are women are eligible to play.
- 3:19[SPEAKER_00]: Now, of course,
- 3:22[SPEAKER_00]: The loophole here is it never actually defines what a woman is.
- 3:27[SPEAKER_00]: So that ambiguity,
- 3:31[SPEAKER_00]: gave the woke leftists that predominate the league.
- 3:34[SPEAKER_00]: The cover to issue a statement denouncing hate, abuse, and the demonization of transgender people, but critics notice that they denounce that supposed intolerance without ever addressing the whole eligibility question directly.
- 3:51[SPEAKER_00]: What precisely is a woman?
- 3:53[SPEAKER_00]: Can trans athletes actually compete in the WNBA?
- 4:00[SPEAKER_00]: Well, that loophole, that loophole, the lack of definition, and the absurdity of the leagues virtue signaling against Sophie Cunningham, triggered a response from two former NBA players and a full-blown crisis for the league.
- 4:16[SPEAKER_00]: So on Friday, former NBA player and this canter freedom took to social media and announced that he is officially declaring himself
- 4:26[SPEAKER_00]: a WNBA prospect for the 2027 draft, quote, after careful consideration and reviewing the current eligibility guidelines, I'm officially declaring myself a WNBA prospect.
- 4:39[SPEAKER_00]: If simply declaring who you are is all that's required, then I meet every single requirement necessary to compete in the WNBA.
- 4:50[SPEAKER_00]: and, quote, freedom went on to say that he and his team had, quote, carefully examined the WNBA's eligibility criteria and governing frameworks surrounding self-ident identification and inclusion, and that he was simply asking that the current rules be applied equally to everyone including himself and he signed off with, see you at the training camp.
- 5:12[SPEAKER_00]: Now, it's got to be one of the single best trolling in the history of professional sports, but as it turns out, it was just the beginning.
- 5:20[SPEAKER_00]: Literally hours later, another former NBA first round pick, Royce White, who was actually drafted by the Houston Rockets, announced that he too is declaring for the 2027 WNBA draft.
- 5:34[SPEAKER_00]: White posted on next quote.
- 5:35[SPEAKER_00]: I identify as a sometimes identifying transgender woman my wig is in the male.
- 5:43[SPEAKER_00]: And then in a video statement and an appearance on Fox News, White Double Down, saying, I'm transgender.
- 5:50[SPEAKER_00]: I'm a woman.
- 5:51[SPEAKER_00]: I identify as sometimes identifying as a woman for the purposes of professional basketball.
- 5:58[SPEAKER_00]: So I'll be declaring for the WNBA draft in 2027 as well.
- 6:03[SPEAKER_00]: and he even threatened legal action telling Fox News digital that if the league denies him he'll be filing a discrimination lawsuit as the WNBA against the WNBA based on their own virtue signaling based on their own public pro trans comments and their refusal to find what a woman is.
- 6:27[SPEAKER_00]: Now, bravo to these two professional athletes, right?
- 6:31[SPEAKER_00]: And boy, doesn't, it doesn't not tell you how times have changed since, say, like 2020 or 2021, where I doubt to be on.
- 6:39[SPEAKER_00]: Well, maybe they would have, maybe though, but I doubt they, most people would not do this back then, because the cancel culture was so out of control.
- 6:47[SPEAKER_00]: Neither of these men actually believe they're a women, of it, woman, obviously, whatever that is.
- 6:53[SPEAKER_00]: This is a brilliant,
- 6:55[SPEAKER_00]: biting protest using reality as your picket.
- 7:01[SPEAKER_00]: What these two biological males are doing is are holding up a mirror to the WNBA's own rules and they're forcing the league to either accept two grown men on their roasters and you can be assured that that number will only grow.
- 7:16[SPEAKER_00]: or admit publicly that biological sex is real and that it matters in sports competition.
- 7:23[SPEAKER_00]: And gang, that is exactly the trap.
- 7:26[SPEAKER_00]: The ultra-woke left built for themselves.
- 7:29[SPEAKER_00]: So now the WNBA finds itself with exactly three options.
- 7:32[SPEAKER_00]: And every single one of them is a nightmare for this league, given their preconditions here.
- 7:39[SPEAKER_00]: Option one, declare that these two men are not women.
- 7:44[SPEAKER_00]: I just bought him one, you can't play because you're not women.
- 7:47[SPEAKER_00]: And it means actually defining what a woman is, and thereby admitting biology is real and turning their back on their past public statements denouncing transphobia.
- 7:58[SPEAKER_00]: Now they are the transphobes.
- 8:01[SPEAKER_00]: Option two, let them play.
- 8:04[SPEAKER_00]: Which would of course be an absolute disaster for the integrity of the league and for the safety of the women who have to compete against these two men their teams whatever teams are on they would win every single game from here on end and on in perpetuity option three
- 8:22[SPEAKER_00]: announced that only player's born female can compete, essentially the same as option one, but it's just worded carefully.
- 8:32[SPEAKER_00]: I think, by the way, I think they're going to go with that option.
- 8:36[SPEAKER_00]: And but if they did it, if the league has said if they did nothing, simply refuses to draft them.
- 8:41[SPEAKER_00]: Well, then they open themselves up to a lawsuit alleging discrimination, and they also demonstrate themselves to be all talk and total hypocrites.
- 8:50[SPEAKER_00]: So this is the very definition of checkmate.
- 8:54[SPEAKER_00]: Precisely because it's the very definition of reality.
- 8:58[SPEAKER_00]: And speaking of reality, you know, often bruising reality.
- 9:02[SPEAKER_00]: Are you feeling the whip lash in the markets of light?
- 9:05[SPEAKER_00]: We're seeing record volatility and wild swings in the economy.
- 9:09[SPEAKER_00]: If you're like most hardworking patriots, you know, salary professional career person or a small business owner, you're probably exhausted by it all.
- 9:19[SPEAKER_00]: Your purchasing power is going to continue to shrink, which is exactly why when I'm about to tell you is so important.
- 9:26[SPEAKER_00]: What if you could flip the script?
- 9:29[SPEAKER_00]: What if this extreme market movement is actually presenting unique and powerful money making opportunities that everyday folks can take advantage of?
- 9:39[SPEAKER_00]: Just like the elites do.
- 9:40[SPEAKER_00]: Imagine having a simple proven step-by-step system
- 9:45[SPEAKER_00]: something that's specifically designed to be learned by regular people with busy laws, something you could actually picture yourself doing just minutes a day that puts you in a position to take advantage of the very same opportunities the elites have when they've always kept it to themselves.
- 10:02[SPEAKER_00]: Now I know what you might be thinking, you know, I was frankly skeptical about it myself.
- 10:06[SPEAKER_00]: We've all been conditioned to believe that taking control of our own financial destiny is just to risky or that you have to be some wall street insider to make it work.
- 10:16[SPEAKER_00]: But the truth is, once you understand how to harness this volatility.
- 10:21[SPEAKER_00]: this is the best business in the world.
- 10:24[SPEAKER_00]: And you can do it from the comfort of your own home.
- 10:26[SPEAKER_00]: That's why I want to introduce you to my good friend Troy Newton and the back pack trader.

- 12:07[SPEAKER_00]: Your bright, beautiful future is waiting.
- 12:10[SPEAKER_00]: Let's go get it together.
- 12:13[SPEAKER_00]: The WNBA Commissioner Kathy Engelbert just sent out a rather panic, urgent memo to every team in the league on Friday afternoon, confirming that a special task force made up of team presidents and general managers would meet this week specifically to hash this out.
- 12:36[SPEAKER_00]: What exactly are they hashing out?
- 12:40[SPEAKER_00]: What is this woke commissioner of the WNBA and all these team presidents and general manager?
- 12:47[SPEAKER_00]: What are they all quote hashing out?
- 12:50[SPEAKER_00]: You know precisely what it is.
- 12:53[SPEAKER_00]: We're just having too much fun with this.
- 12:54[SPEAKER_00]: They're going to have to hash out what the hell is a freaking woman.
- 13:00[SPEAKER_00]: I'm sure Justice Auto pen, Katanji Jackson is wondering how many biologists will be present at those meetings.
- 13:06[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, you can't make this stuff up.
- 13:09[SPEAKER_00]: When the commissioner of the WNBA, the Women's National Basketball League has to convene a task force just to figure out who's allowed to play in the Women's League.
- 13:24[SPEAKER_00]: You know the woke chickens have officially come home to roost.
- 13:28[SPEAKER_00]: This whole meltdown at the WNBA is actually a perfect window into something much deeper.
- 13:37[SPEAKER_00]: And that's the meltdown of liberal leftism itself.
- 13:43[SPEAKER_00]: What we're seeing here is a genuine philosophical fracture running straight through the heart of modern liberalism.
- 13:51[SPEAKER_00]: And that fracture is the clash between what turns out to be two incommensurable values, two values that liberals claim you could hold simultaneously,
- 14:06[SPEAKER_00]: fairness and inclusion, fairness and inclusion.
- 14:12[SPEAKER_00]: So for decades, the left acted as if these two values were perfectly compatible as if you could have total inclusion and total fairness at the very same time.
- 14:23[SPEAKER_00]: No contradictions, no trade-offs.
- 14:26[SPEAKER_00]: But reality, as it always does, has come knocking.
- 14:30[SPEAKER_00]: Sports competition is based on the fundamental principle of fairness.
- 14:39[SPEAKER_00]: It's fairness.
- 14:40[SPEAKER_00]: That's why cheating isn't allowed.
- 14:44[SPEAKER_00]: Fairness is the bedrock principle apart from which you do not have sports competition.
- 14:51[SPEAKER_00]: You only end up having spectacle, right?
- 14:53[SPEAKER_00]: A predetermined or meaningless exercise rather than a genuine contest.
- 14:59[SPEAKER_00]: But here's the rub.
- 15:02[SPEAKER_00]: Fairness by definition excludes.
- 15:07[SPEAKER_00]: Fairness by definition excludes at the very least it excludes cheating, right?
- 15:14[SPEAKER_00]: But fairness by definition always excludes.
- 15:17[SPEAKER_00]: It excludes heavyweight from fighting light weights.
- 15:20[SPEAKER_00]: It excludes professionals from competing against amateurs, and it excludes biological men from competing against biological females.
- 15:30[SPEAKER_00]: That's the real reality that is so freaking out the woke WNBA right now without fairness.
- 15:43[SPEAKER_00]: which means that their woke virtue signaling is in the end, destroying the very basis for why they have a basketball league in the first place.
- 15:54[SPEAKER_00]: President Trump said it best.
- 15:55[SPEAKER_00]: Everything woke turns to Dung in the King James version, of course.
- 16:00[SPEAKER_00]: This is why virtually every sports league in association on the planet, on the planet, around the world, including the Olympics, is busy banning biological males from female sports competition.
- 16:13[SPEAKER_00]: It's not hard.
- 16:16[SPEAKER_00]: Reality is just simply re-asserting itself against ideology.
- 16:21[SPEAKER_00]: Sanity is winning, slowly.
- 16:25[SPEAKER_00]: But it is, winning even the wokest league in professional sports even the WNBA can out escape the basic God-given common sense truth that men and women are different and that fairness in the end always trumps feelings.
