Rep. Katie Porter (D-CA) and TV personality Piers Morgan clashed on Friday night over NCAA champion swimmer Riley Gaines's advocating against transgender athletes in women's sports.
RILEY GAINES: BIDEN ISN'T WILLING TO PROTEST YOUR DAUGHTERS Self-styled soccer mom and US Senate hopeful Rep. Katie Porter smears Riley Gaines while Bill Maher and Piers Morgan actually standup for women’s sports.— Charlie Kirk April 16, 2023 Morgan interrupted,"What has she actually said that is wrong?"
"I think that what she has done is try to turn this — we talked about people becoming — using things to kind of get likes and get clicks," the California Democrat said.He added,"All I’ve seen her do is stand up for women’s rights to fairness and equality. She actually competed against Lia Thomas, and it was obviously unfair. Lia Thomas won one of the races in the NCAA Championships by 50 seconds against a bunch of biological females who simply couldn’t keep up.
"Riley is speaking up for herself, and that is her prerogative, and I respect her free speech," Porter said. Morgan quickly clapped back,"I think she's speaking up for pretty much every female athlete in the world."Maher agreed with the British television star and talked about how the history of Title IX was meant to help reward male and female athletes equally, and now it seems"the opposite" is happening in women's sports.
Gaines recently made headlines when a mob of transgender activists harassed her, with one of them allegedly punching her, at San Francisco State University following her speech in support of biological women's rights in sports.
