    I am not deeply ashamed as they do not represent me, they represent mental illness and I hope they get a med check because something has gone awry.

    The pay gap is the result of economics, the womens world cup simple doesn't make even close to as much as the mens world soccer cup.

    Ignoring subpoenas, going around Supreme court ruling on the census, taking funds allocated by Congress for certain projects and steering them where he wants. You can google the long list of how Trump has flaunted our laws. It's all in there.

    It's self evident. Were they celebrating as the USA team FOR the USA? Nope didn't even want the flag in the picture and tossed it to the ground.

    Do a quick Google of sports related injuries by sport and you will find soccer to not be that safe.

    Yeah, tell me, how is your search for WMD in Iraq going along? It's been a while but that's OK as we only have the rest of eternity for you to finally find them. By the way, you righties did a great job of extolling USA principles and our international image through your war, especially since force was utterly necessary to finding imaginary WMD and in preventing an impending attack that was only an illusion. Small wonder why internationals began their boycott of American products thereby bringing on the Great Recession which was one of the hallmarks of Bush_Stupid's regimes. Meanwhile, Americans paid $2 trillion while chickenhawk Dick Cheney, Halliburton, and Bechtel put billions into their pockets while laughing at you and others because they got their checks while you didn't.

    All that isn't leftwing propaganda. It is TRUTH whether you like it or not.

    Oh by the way, even the rightwing John Birch Society admitted in its publication that all this was what the war was all about: TREASON.

    As far as I'm concerned, Rapinoe and her band of 'twisted sisters' can all go back to the Isle of Lesbos, or to hell, whichever is closer. They don't deserve to represent the United States of America in any sport....

    They clearly didn't want the flag in the picture and tossed it away to the ground. Can youvshow me a picture of them holding up the flag and shouting out USA USA and demonstrating how proud they were to being playing FOR the country?

    Not a Trump fan either.

    But am far more amused by the ADS. Anti-America derangement syndrome demonstrated by the far right.

    This is all untrue.

    1. There were wmds, not like we were told but they were there.
    2. The recession was brought about by too much home lending to peopme who couldn't afford it and by high gas prices.
    3. I cannot tell the truth about you because it's against the rules.
    Bectel, and haliburton are stand up companies with good people at the top compared to Google and Facebook.
    Hell compared to Disney and the New York Times or CNN.

    BS it is impossible to look at that video and not see her trying to get it out if her hands so she can have the photo op.

    If you can say that i get to say climate change and eviolution are both fake.

    Phooey.

    No WMD, never were any. See the Downing Street Memo which proved Bush is a traitor as is those who defend him.
    Bush caused the Great Recession though deluded righties like to say BLAME CLINTON. International boycott definitely made it worse due to Bush_Stupid's war.
    Bechtel & Halliburton profited while Americans paid for the war in blood and money.

    And that's the TRUTH whether anyone likes it or not.

    That's actually not the truth. No matter how angry it makes you.

    I believe it was just thoughtlessness in the moment. Nice to see someone caught the mistake and quickly recovered the flag.

    Any real patriot will be angry over the needless loss of American lives. Meanwhile, righties rejoice over the needless deaths of Americans because of Bush's treason.
