WATCH: Joe Rogan notices something about the Olympics that no one else is talking about



A global firestorm has ignited over the Olympics’ decision to feature a blasphemous opening ceremony performance that mocked “The Last Supper,” as well as its position (or lack thereof) on gender and who can compete in what division.

But Joe Rogan is surprised people aren’t up in arms over what he thinks is a third controversy.

Dave Rubin plays the clip of Rogan explaining to Khalil Rountree Jr. how the Olympics is “a giant scam.”

“You have the best athletes in the world participating in their disciplines ... and then on top of that you have enormous amounts of money being made and none of it's going to the athletes,” said Rogan, adding that the entire ordeal “is a giant scam.”

He then pointed out that the same people who put on “that ridiculous opening ceremony where you got a bunch of drag queens in ‘The Last Supper’” are the same people who are “reaping all the money and sucking all the cash out of these athletes.”

On top of scamming the athletes, the people behind the scenes of the Olympics are also hurting the communities where the Olympics are hosted. Rogan pointed to Brazil as an example.

“So if it's going to be in Brazil, they build this f****** enormous place for it to participate in ... and then after that — nothing! And then all the people there who are poor are like, ‘Hey where the f*** did this money come from and why didn't you just spend it on the community?”’ Rogan said, pointing out that “the money they make is astronomical.”

“The Olympics makes billions and billions of money in television revenue and advertising revenue, and they don't give any of it to the athletes, so it just goes to the committee ... and these are the crazy people that are putting on ‘The Last Supper’ with transsexuals,” he continued.

“The whole Olympics is just people getting f***ed over.”

ANOTHER scandal at the Paris Olympics involving 'the MOST dangerous sport' sparks outrage



The blasphemous opening ceremony that boldly mocked da Vinci’s “The Last Supper” isn’t the only scandal at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Two biological men are also being allowed to compete against women in the boxing division — “the most dangerous sport,” according to Jennifer Sey, founder and CEO of XX-XY Athletics.

“It’s happening in the Olympics; it's happening at the NCA finals; it's happening at the state track championship in Oregon and in Washington; and it's happening at the local high school. It's happened over 700 times in the last few years alone that males have stolen medals and trophies from females,” she tells Jill Savage and the “Blaze News Tonight” panel.

But what’s perhaps most upsetting is the IOC’s insistence that the two athletes have met gender eligibility requirements.

Olympic Committee IGNORES Biologywww.youtube.com

Despite the fact that Lin Yu-ting of Taiwan and Imane Khelif of Algeria failed the gender eligibility tests at the 2023 women’s world championships because their results revealed XY chromosomes, proving that they were in fact male, the International Olympics Committee has attested that Yu-ting and Khelif are female because their passports say so.

“The IOC spokesperson said, ‘Well, it says female on their passport so we're going to just trust that,’” says Sey. “Do you really think that individuals and governments wouldn't lie about the status of an athlete on their passport in order to win medals?”

The IOC spokesperson to whom Sey refers is Mark Adams, who indeed attested that they are “complying with the competition eligibility rules.”

“They are women in their passports, and it’s stated that that is the case — that they are women,” Adams said, insisting that “they are eligible by the rules of the federation, which were set in 2016.”

“These hard-working female athletes, these boxers ... are being told that in order to be nice, they need to sit down, get punched in the face, and give up their medal and their trophy and everything they've worked for because ‘oh they're abiding by the eligibility rules,”’ Sey condemns.

To make matters even more upsetting, Yu-ting and Khelif “don’t even seem to be pretending to be female.” Images from the Olympics show the two in the area looking every bit like males.
