The NBA appears to be the latest organization to throw common sense aside in favor of political correctness. Trump’s planned deportation raids are on hold, while the House votes on emergency funding for the border crisis. Meanwhile, did Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez break the law in warning people about the raids? All that and more on today’s show.
You’ve heard a lot of words that the left has attacked as “offensive” and forced a change. Retarded became mentally challenged. American Indians became Native Americans. Now, the left says that the world “owner” is offensive… as in a business owner. The NBA appears to be listening.
When it was thought that Trump would begin deportation raids this past Sunday, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez sent out warnings to people saying they should hide and avoid ICE. Did she break the law? Check out today’s show for all the details.

Let me see, I own my own business and have people working for me, so that make me a (SLAVE) owner now,Right!!
IN the idiotic minds of the demented left, yes it does.
You should reduce your salary and raise everyone else’s so all of you make the same thing, from owner to toilet cleaner.
If you have a nice house and car you should sell them and after buying a single wide mobile home and a used Yugo split the remaining money with your employees.
That would make Bernie and AOC so proud…
Only if they do it first!
These fricking snowflakes are changing everything that offends them, what idiots!
Worse to me, is so many companies are caving IN TO THEIR whining demands.. IF MORE had the balls to stand up to them and tell them to bugger off, imo they’d STOP Pushing this nonsense..
More stupidity from the Left! NBA Team owners own CONTRACTS signed by players, wherein owners and players commit to certain actions. THEY DO NOT OWN PEOPLE!
Communist/NWO wants us to abolish the idea of ownership.
My house is very offended by the fact that I “own” it.
Technically, since you can be kicked out for failing to pay property taxes to the state/county/city, do you really own it though??
My house also resents the fact that I own it. As an owner I don’t care how my house feels about the situation.
A team owner owns the team, not the people. A business owner owns the business not the employees. Business owners don’t buy people, they rent people. They buy your time and effort for a certain portion of your life. That’s just the way things work.
If the players don’t like working for an “owner” then start your own business and shut up. Most regular people would jump at the chance to get paid millions of dollars a year playing a pointless game like baseball or basketball.
Oh I feel so sorry for these poor mistreated babies. (sarcasm)
And as to AOC warning folks. I DO THINK EVERY liberal who has given those warnings, should be immediately arrested, for aiding and abetting illegal invaders.. AND TOSSED OUT OF the country, right along side them.
This is beyond the pale.
These poor oppressed basketball players making an average of $6.4 million a year. My goodness, the outrage.
The sad thing is, the NBA bought into this. I am now adding them to my “will never watch again” list. Right up there with the NFL.
No skin of my nose. NEVER even watched the NBA, other than in a few films… 2 of whcih i no longer watch anyway (Whoopie’s in one).. BUT i agree, how they can feel oppressed for earning more in ONE year than most won’t in a lifetime of work, is outrageous.
If you are an Owner of an NBA Team, shame on you for letting the NBA dictate that you can’t be called what you are, a Business Owner, or simply Owner.
Worse, SHAME On you for letting your players BULLY YOU into agreeing to THEIR whims..
A team owner is an owner just like any other business–don’t like it quit
Bobby, I am offended. LOL Here in Oklahoma, we call it Tal-a-Qua. Emphasis on the Tal. Just saying, that this Mixed white, indian, Italian, mix is not a native american, I am just a plain old fashioned Merican!! Keep up the great work.
No one should take offense because of the word “owner”since it does not imply ownership of individuals but a Franchise that involves Team Members ! If that is offensive , so is the amount of money that the players are getting “For playing”
Feelings are diminished when the players take their $$ to the bank or wire it offshore ,
I know that no one wants to be owned and actually that is impossible within the NBA ,
and this is all BS anyway,Political Correctness to placate the Snowflakes ! Cut the Crap, Lots of people would love to be in the situations the “Players” find themselves in for the kind of money they make and they wouldn’t give two hoots what was owned by whom! They would laugh all the way to the Bank in their Lamborghini!
Aren’t governors elected or appointed? Will the players get to chose who runs the teams? Or will Baldy?
“Governor”? So they were ELECTED to the position? Can they be voted out? Are there term limits? When do I get to vote? Geeze, this is beyond pathetic. They “own” a franchise, a business; just like, say, McDonalds. Are THEY still allowed to be owners? I guess the MOST pathetic thing is the OWNERS and the league giving in to it.
The Bronx Bolshevik should be arrested for aiding and abetting criminal illegal invaders. Unfortunately this country has lost it’s courage and resolve.
More lke the morons in charge, have lost the balls to ENFORCE our laws.
What do we call it when we go to the car dealership and buy a car? We don’t “own” our car? How about clothing? Groceries? Insane!
How about AOC calling upon Wayfair to stop making beds, ordered for migrant children? Dems are very despicable in terms of this border crisis. They own it 100,000 percent, yet they have the audacity to pin it on Trump, because they are all butt-hurt about losing 2016! They would not fund the efforts of ICE, causing the detention crisis all the way up to not funding the wall. Dems own all the suffering, deaths, etc. Their lax attitude have resulted in death, suffering, trafficking and more! No more Dems in office after 2020!!
If you stop and think about it, calling owners “governors” is actually kind of more offensive in some strange way. At least to me it sounds pretty bizarre and makes an owner sound more lofty and hifalutin. I’m sure somewhere down the line they’ll change governor to something totally irrelevant. May as well call owners “dandelions”. Makes about as much sense using libtard logic.
ANd one wonders.. WILL they then demand ‘we should be able to vote for who’s the guvnor’..
When a player or team gets dominated in a game, are the broadcasters going to be banned from using the phrase “getting owned”?
Instead of “owners” we’ll just use the term “plantationists”.
