What are the odds of Khelif winning a defamation lawsuit against Boebert? She's falsely accusing her of being trans and therefore being ineligible to participate in women's boxing.
Well an Olympic athlete is probably a public figure in this context, so she'd need to show that Boebert defamed her "with knowledge that it was false or with reckless disregard of whether it was false or not."
Pretty good, I'd wager.
Remember there's a harm component as well - Khelif is Algerian, where being outed as LGBTQIA of any stripe can get you killed by the state.

Has anyone ever seen this Karen when her mouth isn't gaping wide open? Why does she always have to talk in all caps?
It needs to be open so she can fit all of the OTHER dicks from that Beetlejuice showing
Maybe she should move to Italy with the rest of the fascist weirdos that are upset about sex, gender, and ????.
No, please we have enough weirdos already here, can you keep yours to yourselves?
It's easier to keep track if they're all in one place though. I'm sure we can come up with a suitable location we all agree with, like the surface of the sun.
Too expensive to get them there. I suggest the bottom of the Marianas Trench. I hear they even have Fanta down there!
Just equip them with concrete boots, much cheaper than a spaceship.
Why bother with concrete boots? Rocks are cheap, maybe even free depending where you grab them from.
Security of course. You don't want them coming dislodged! How would you secure the rocks? Burlap sacks full, tied with plastic rope to their ankles?
Make them eat them? I don't know. That's for logistics to figure out. We're the idea people! That's why we're paid the big bucks. And by big bucks, I mean crippling national debt we have absolutely no control over being owned by a foreign nation, China.

Wasn't MTG doing crossfit? Maybe they should look into it. She could be not feminine enough for conservatives if she has been doing 'men activities' involving strength and muscles. Maybe MTG is secretly a men! Just sayin.
I'd say A men to that!
Same woman who was accused of spending 60k of campaign funds for personal expenses. She's incapable of spending her own money for causes. It's almost like she doesn't actually believe in anything.
Wtf is wrong with these people?
I didn't even know about this at all and I still don't care at all. The fact that she cares so much about this shit that does not affect her or anyone listening to her in any way is fucking weird.
That’s a LOT of handies.
?
They're implying she's raising money by performing hand jobs.
I was half-awake and read "handles". I even read it a couple times and searched the article trying to understand.
Thanks.
Haha that's cool, the tired is real. Glad I could help.
Further context is that she was recorded fondling a guy while vaping at a musical and got ejected. He was also groping her.

Carpet bagger performing handjobs in a public theater.
Bigots are bigots for a reason, but what irks me more about this issue is that once they are proven wrong they just double down instead of admitting that they were mistaken. Not trying to excuse their transphobia, but after the initial dumb outrage they could’ve just moved on quietly after learning that she was born a female and I would’ve just thought of them as usual dumb-asshole-bigots, but noooooo, they just have to lower the bar even more.
Because the whole point is that they're right and the world is wrong, and they're going to take over and make it be right. Admitting a mistake would invalidate the project. Folding Ideas flat earth piece is a great window into the mindset.
... who cares?
Sad, potato-brained idiot.
