Megan Rapinoe shames Korbin Albert for reposting a Christian testimony, but Albert bending the knee is far more problematic



When U.S. Women’s National Team player Korbin Albert reposted a TikTok of a young man’s testimony about his Christian faith and recovery from homosexuality and transgenderism, she probably thought she was doing something good.

And she was.

Just not according to Megan Rapinoe, who Allie Beth Stuckey calls a “completely insufferable, progressive activist” – and for good reason. During the 2023 Women’s World Cup, Rapinoe was so radical and divisive, she had half the country rooting against the United States.

When Albert reposted the video, Rapinoe, per her typical character, was quick to issue the following scathing statement on Instagram:

“For people who want to hide behind ‘my beliefs’ I would just ask one question, are you making any type of space safer, more inclusive, more whole, any semblance of better, bringing the best out of anyone? ... because if you aren’t, all you believe in is hate. And kids are literally killing themselves because of this hate. Wake TF up! Yours truly, #15. For all my trans homies enduring this horrific treatment day in and day out, I see you and hear you and I am WITH YOU.”

Unfortunately, instead of sticking to her guns, Albert quickly bent the knee and issued an apology for sharing content that was “offensive, insensitive and hurtful,” claiming that she was “really disappointed in [herself]” and would “do better.”

Allie is disappointed in Albert’s response.

“Just looking at the objective standard of God's word, this was the wrong thing to do,” she says. “This was sin to apologize for this. If the word of God says something, it is good enough for us to repeat.”

“The word of God divides; the gospel divides; the truth about who God made us to be in his image and that his gospel liberates us from the lies of the world ... is a controversial and radical and divisive message,” says Allie, adding that regardless of the cost to us, God’s word “is worth standing on.”

Allie hopes that Albert will indeed “do better” but rather “in accordance with God’s standards” rather than the woke mob’s.

MLB player apologizes for sharing post advocating for Target, Bud Light boycotts



Toronto Blue Jays player Anthony Bass apologized after sharing content on social media that advocated for Christians to boycott Target, Bud Light, and other entities pushing pro-LGBT ideology.

Bass apologized, saying that his post had hurt the "pride community," which he said includes some of his friends and relatives. He said that he had also apologized to his teammates and that he is "using the Blue Jays' resources to better educate" himself.

Bass had reportedly shared a post from Ryan Miller. In a video last week, Miller contended that Christians should boycott businesses such as Target and Bud Light.

Anheuser-Busch's Bud Light beer brand has been subjected to severe blowback since enlisting transgender figure Dylan Mulvaney to advertise the beverage.

Target has been facing criticism for selling Pride products, including for children, and for offering a few products from Abprallen, a brand that also sells products bearing the message "Satan respects pronouns." Such products were not part of Target's offerings, and the retail giant has apparently dropped Abprallen's items from its website.

The Blue Jays are fully supportive of the LGBT agenda, and intend to celebrate the movement next month.

"The Blue Jays are proud to celebrate LGBTQ2S+ Pride Month, including a special fourth annual Pride Weekend at the ballpark June 9 and 10, and demonstrations of allyship all month long around the ballpark. Individual player sentiments are not representative of the club's beliefs," the team said in a statement, according to mlb.com.

Bass' Instagram profile includes text that says "Love God," and it also says "Mark 10:27."

Some people criticized Bass for making the apology.

"Pathetic," conservative commentator Dan Bongino tweeted.

"We are surrounded by cowards," conservative commentator Matt Walsh tweeted.

GOP pollster Frank Luntz says his industry is 'done' after poor 2020 forecasts



Longtime Republican pollster Frank Luntz says his industry is "done" after major forecasts were way off in projecting outcomes in the 2020 general election.

What are the details?

As numbers rolled in during the tight race between President Donald Trump and Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden on Tuesday night, Luntz told Axios, "The political polling profession is done." He added, "It is devastating for my industry."

National polls leading up to Election Day showed Biden held a commanding advantage over Trump, but the two candidates were neck and neck out of the gate and remained in a heated battle so close Wednesday that lawsuits were already filed.

The Hill pointed out that "beyond the presidential election...many pollsters were projecting that Democrats would gain House seats and the Senate majority," adding that, "Instead, it appears that Republicans will gain House seats and that the party has a strong chance of keeping control of the Senate."

On Twitter, Luntz pointed to the fact that GOP Sen. Susan Collins (Maine) was behind challenger Sara Gideon (D) in 14 major polls as Nov. 3 approached, but ended up winning by several points. He called the widespread inaccuracy "a systemic failure."

Nearly two weeks ago, Luntz told Fox News that if President Trump wins and defies the polls as he did in 2016, his "profession is done."

"I hate to acknowledge it, because that's my industry — at least partially — but the public will have no faith, no confidence." Luntz told anchor Bret Baier. "Right now, the biggest issue is the trust deficit."

He added, "Pollsters did not do a good job in 2016. So, if Donald Trump surprises people, if Joe Biden had a 5- or 6-point lead, my profession is done."

Luntz issued an apology to fellow pollster John McLaughlin on Wednesday, saying McLaughlin beat "mainstream pollsters" with his predictions that Trump would have a strong showing in "key Rust Best states." Luntz had earlier said of McLaughlin's projections: "I don't believe it. But if he's right, he's a genius. If he's wrong, I wonder if he'll ever work again."

During an interview with CNBC on Wednesday, Luntz was asked if he was surprised by the outcomes of the election thus far. "My single biggest surprise is not something that you guys have been talking about, which is that it looks like the Republicans will keep control of the Senate," he replied.

"My second biggest surprise," he continued, "is that the pollsters at CNN and a few other places have not apologized for the numbers that are completely wrong."

Girl Scouts apologize after recognizing Amy Coney Barrett for becoming 5th woman to serve on Supreme Court



Girl Scouts of the USA organization has issued an apology after receiving backlash for publicly congratulating Justice Amy Coney Barrett for becoming the fifth woman appointed to the Supreme Court of the United States.

What are the details?

On Wednesday, the group tweeted portraits of all the women who have been chosen to sit on America's highest court, writing, "Congratulations Amy Coney Barrett on becoming the 5th woman appointed to the Supreme Court since its inception in 1789."

Then, the post was removed.

The Girl Scouts explained in a subsequent message, "Earlier today, we shared a post highlighting the five women who have been appointed to the Supreme Court. It was quickly viewed as a political and partisan statement which was not our intent and we have removed the post."

They added, "Girl Scouts of the USA is a nonpolitical, nonpartisan organization. We are neither red nor blue, but Girl Scout GREEN. We are here to lift up girls and women."

The group also quietly deleted a follow-up tweet that read, "Girl Scouts of the USA is a nonpolitical, nonpartisan organization. We are neither red nor blue, but Girl Scout GREEN. We are here to lift up girls and women. If you would like to debate partisan politics—keep scrolling."

The confirmation of Justice Barrett has been a highly contentious political issue in the U.S., as Democrats protested Republicans' move to press forward and confirm President Donald Trump's pick ahead of the Nov. 3 election.

It appears the Girl Scouts are now taking heat from both sides. However, the Girl Scouts maintain tweets honoring the late liberal icon Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

Because the original tweet recognizing Barrett has been deleted, TheBlaze is unable to report on the criticism directly to the post.. But the Girl Scouts were lambasted for giving in to the mob and removing their post honoring the newest female justice.

Former Fox News host Megyn Kelly's response best represented the folks protesting the group for taking down its nod to Barrett.

She tweeted, "This is pathetic @girlscouts. It's not 'partisan' to generically congratulate the 5th woman ever to join the High Court. It's patriotic. Taking your tweet down *is* partisan, however, and a real disappointment."
