WILD theory about why LSU ditched national anthem in game against Iowa



In one of the most viewed women’s college basketball games in history, the Iowa Hawkeyes beat the LSU Tigers in a 94-87 victory, which will advance them to the Final Four.

But Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese weren’t the only subjects of conversation.

LSU made a point to leave the court before the national anthem — as is their habit — while the Hawkeyes “stood holding hands.”

“LSU coach, Kim Mulkey, said that it wasn’t intentional” and that “they have a routine of leaving the court at a certain time,” according to reports.

However, LSU’s heartbreaking loss is what Sara Gonzales calls “karma.”

“That loss couldn’t have happened to a more deserving team,” she says.

While Kim Mulkey certainly has her critics, she also is known as “an antichrist to the left,” says Grant Stinchfield. “She dresses like a female; she doesn’t want dating between girls on the team; she is literally hated by [liberals].”

“I actually believe [Mulkey] when she says they went in before [the song],” he says, but regardless, “you should know when the national anthem is, especially in the political climate we live in.”

“I guess, then, my question would just be why is the routine time always coinciding with the national anthem?” asks Sara.

Grant may just have a theory that answers Sara’s question.

“Is this a setup job on her because she’s so despised?” he asks, noting that “there’s something fishy going on between Iowa and LSU.”

“Conspiracy theories in this day and age end up always being true, so that's a fascinating one,” says Sara.

Summit described as 'an alternative to CPAC' to feature speakers, including Adam Kinzinger, Asa Hutchinson, and others



Former U.S. Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.), former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson, former Ohio Gov. John Kasich, former Republican National Committee Chair Michael Steele, and various other individuals are listed as speakers for the upcoming Principles First Summit slated to take place later this month.

"The theme of this year's Summit is 'Conserving America's Liberal Tradition,'" according to a press release that describes the event as "an alternative to CPAC."

The summit will be "focused on advancing a more principled center-right politics in the United States," and will feature "panels, speeches, networking, and discussion about how we can preserve America's classical liberal tradition, the meaning of conservatism today, and the future of our movement," according to Principles First.

Kinzinger was one of the 10 House Republicans who voted to impeach then-President Donald Trump in the wake of the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot. He was also one of the two GOP lawmakers who served on the House select committee that was supposed to probe the Jan. 6 episode.

Hutchinson dropped out of the 2024 GOP presidential primary after a dismal showing in the Iowa caucuses where he earned less than 200 votes.

Some of the other individuals slated to speak at the summit include Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, "The View" co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin, George Conway, Bill Kristol, Jonah Goldberg, and Steve Hayes.

Former President Donald Trump and various other figures are slated to speak at CPAC this month.
