Elizabeth Williams has played on the Dream since 2016 and serves on the union's executive committee.
"I think it's ironic for her to make these statements and for her to still want to be associated with the team," Williams said."The only option the Loeffler campaign had" Robinson said Loeffler also had to go on the offensive to win over Georgia's Republican base, because while she is in a free-for-all,"jungle" special election without party primaries, she needs the state's loyal Republican voters in November.
tosha_zimmerman Keep your eyes on the play and ignore the fucking shirts!
tosha_zimmerman What a moron. Good for Engelbert
soccermom1517 What about the league dropping her team? That’s so much more appropriate.
My guess is- she’s white.
Tell trump to stop interfering.
Why isn’t she in jail for insider trading. If any American would have done what she did they would be sitting in a jail cell.
A politician who co-owns a sports team thinks there should be less politics in sports...
If she doesn't want politics in sports, she should start with not being a senator and co-owning a team at the same time
Of course she'd say this BlackLivesMattters
A SOCIOPATH will NEVER do what you want or expect them to do! That is PSYCHOLOGY 101! Orange 🍊dude is a CON..as Bloomberg said! Ask niece Mary Trump PH D. STOP asking/expecting/wishing 🍊 dude to be..better/decent,etc.! It is NOT HAPPENING! It is...what it is!
Pass this on to the president please.
If we need less politics in sports, then perhaps she, as a politician, ought to leave sports?
Yeah...less support for a terrorist organization in sports would be nice.
blm is marxist .npr is PROPAGANDA
This insensitive money grubbing creep has zero understanding of the women that are making her rich...I hope her players walk out
WNBA needs to get rid of KellyLoeffler NOW!
Good for those players!!
Another racist Karen
BOYCOTT the Atlanta Dream. Hit them where it hurts. Don't buy tickets for games involving the Atlanta Dream. Don't buy any souvenirs with their name or logo. Don't buy anything wherever they place ads or their name appears and let folks know why you ain't buying.
Typical WhitePrivilege response by kloeffler trying to discredit BLM and sweeping SystemicRacism under the rug. Like realDonaldTrump Kelly is deceitful and uses conservative as a false narrative to justify her inappropriate actions.
SenatorLoeffler very very very disappointed in your stance. BlackLivesMatter
Bye Bye
That’s true! I wrote the president and suggested he tell the SecDef to mandate all military personnel not be allowed to wear the uniform at ANY commercial sporting event. That includes color guard, fly bys etc.
we need less politicians...
This team disagrees? So odd. 🤷🏻♀️
What’s political about Americans expecting equal human rights for all people in this country? As long as there is complacency for the status quo, especially from our politicians, we are not the land of the free. Not even close.
Well Done KL!👍😏
Right on!
If you do not support your players then release them to other teams that do. Hope you win with a team of 1
BLM shouldn’t be political I literally about standing up for equality and against police brutality against POC. She got political by making this statement. It’s sad that equality is seen as a political idea. DUMB AF
Maybe she needs to find like-minded people to play basketball for her team. If the black players voluntarily sit out I'm sure she can find someone else that agrees with her perspective. 😒
Loeffler is a white racist and apparently proud of it. The GOP really just sucks!
She needs to go on out the door
Where politics don't belong is in a government response to a PANDEMIC.
As they should. You make money off those people, shut your mouth and coach. That’s your job.
Terrible human being says terrible things, shocking.
Buy her out if she can’t respect the game, the athletes or the fans.
All you need to say republican senator After that we know how corrupt this group of non americans are
No politics whatsoever. I don't even want to see my own beliefs parroted back to me, it's obnoxious
Oh, she’s so woke!
Hey guys, does anyone remember the insider trading this jackass got away with? Please don’t forget
Bye bye senator
How precious. A Karen who owns a team that is predominantly black thinks BLM doesn't apply to them. You have no problem using our athletic talent but when it comes to social issues that affect us personally, you couldn't give a rats ass unless it's the 2nd Amendment.
Players signed to that team, should demand to be traded! If contract is up, don't negotiate another!
Oh no! Basketball Karen?!
This is what she does when she’s not engaging in insider trading.
what a terrible human being
Players strongly disagree ...understatement of the decade
Thank you for not supporting a Marxist organization!
While I personally would like less politics in everything, if Ivanka Trump can show support for Goya while being a White House advisor, WNBA players can show their support for BLM
out of touch, she is.
🖕🏻
We need more celebrities who speak sense like Denzel Washington, Morgan Freeman, etc. Ones who aren't hooked on racism-for-profit!
What a racist disgrace!
As like it was in MLK's day, once again, the movement calling for ending systemic racism and achieving social justice gets labeled a Leftist political ideology by a conservative.
Isn't that the lady who got busted in the medical stock thing?
Shouldn’t she be in prison?
Why isnt she in jail for insider trading?
What happened to her insider trading?
Why is she a politician then.
BLM is not political it’s humane.
She should have been in jail for the stock market scandal.
It’s not politics.
We need less, not more, insider trading in politics.
“Let us profit off these people; we don’t give a shit about their lives and rights!” A statement that could’ve been said by any slave owner.
Wow. Just so ignorant. It’s blinding.
SenatorLoeffler, you can help by removing yourself from the WNBA... ...or the Senate, Ms. Insider Information... ...or both. I know I would just love to see less of you in general.
We need fewer out of touch, criminal billionaires in Government, not more.
Says the politician involved in sports.
Black Live Matter = Unnecessary division and hate
It's only politics because the Republicans reject the idea of equality, including equal treatment under the law regardless of race or socioeconomic level.
Black lives matter isn't about politics.
Civil Rights, Climate Change, Health Care are not political except as made so by the Rs who want to call them that because they don't want to deal with important issues . LoefflerSen
Unfortunately, there's a difference between the BLM movement and the BLM organization. Supporting one isn't exactly the same as supporting both.
Saying black lives matter isn’t politics. She’s dismissing peoples lives.
When KellyLoeffler loses, and IvankaTrump Trump no longer has her gig in the WH, I suggest they team up for some money-grubbing self-promotional thing. Two peas in a pod
Expressing support for people of color is not political, Karen.
Oh Kelly, just go back to the plantation sip your mint julep. Black Lives Matter movement will disappear when Black Lives really do Matter, and not before.
Sen. Loafer — corrupt, race-baiting vote suppressing swamp creature - vote her out LoefflerMustResign
I agree with Senator Loeffler.
It wouldn't be an issue if White people weren't fvcking equality and justice up all the time.
Saying that black people deserve to live is political now? Wow.
wi_yellow Time to drop SenatorLoeffler BLM Resist
Next thing we know she will get the team to be considered a religious institution so she can discriminate against players that don’t share her “values”.
BLM is a political action committee. I’m tired of politics being injected into sports, entertainment and business.
Saying your team needs less politics is a political statement when it come from a career politician.
This woman really needs to start prefacing things with 'I'm not a racist but...'
Get woke go broke
She is correct
Let's start with her. Get her out of the league and then from the Senate, and we'll all be better off.
Get these people out of sports. There is something wrong w/ the woman. Most basketball players are black & that’s how she makes her money 👎🏻👎🏻😡😡😡
Atlanta Dream players should enter for trades
BLM=CRIMINALS AND KILLERS
Loeffler should be in jail.
Is there a reason why sports teams shouldn't just be player owned?
Sell the team if you dont want sports in politics.
-Irony: Dead, buried, staked through the chest, cremated, ashes scattered to the winds, and the winds themselves purged from the planet in 2020.
Waiting for NPR to do a deep dive into the Marxist organization known as Black Live Matter.
A senator in the US government who co-owns a sports team saying there should be less politics in sports....K.
You also need less Karens in the Senate FACT wednesdaymorning
'Can't we just pretend nothing happened between January and now?'
Hard no.
is that the same lady from the insider trading that time? mmmhmm okay
Everything is politics.
I'm calling on the league to drop her.
We need less politics in sports says the senator I think irony is losing all of its value these days.
At next game when Loefflet is sitting courtside, I see several dozen missed passes hitting her square in the face.
If she truly believes that (she doesn’t) then she needs to resign from congress or sell her stake in the team (she won’t)
We need more decency in politics. I think a staff shakeup might be needed for the state of Georgia.
Insider Trading Barbie says 'shut up and dribble'
Says the senator who owns a sports team
“We need less — not more politics in sports,” If you really believe that then stop playing the National Anthem before games. But she doesn’t believe that, she just wants her kind of politics in sports.
