LeBron James, whose radical political views helped tanked the NBA Finals to all-time ratings lows, is quite happy to see Republican Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R-GA) lose the Georgia runoff to Democrat Rev. Raphael Warnock.
After outlets called the race for Warnock, social justice warrior LeBron teased the purchase of the Atlanta Dream, the WNBA team Loeffler co-owns.
“Think I’m gone put together an ownership group for the The Dream,” LeBron tweets with the error of back-to-back uses of “the.”
LeBron didn’t make clear whom he intends to partner with. I would ask the obvious question, but unlike Kamala Harris, I don’t steal exact wording from others. I give credit. So, I’ll cite Dan Bongino for addressing the elephant in the room:
Is the Chinese communist party in on the deal? https://t.co/LwrViQkaHx

No answer from LeBron yet.
Loeffler purchased the WNBA franchise with Atlanta businesswoman Mary Brock in 2011, but Loeffler is not involved with the team’s daily operations anymore. In 2019, Loeffler also stepped down from her seat on the WNBA board of governors.
This summer, Loeffler spoke out against the NBA and WNBA for incorporating subjective political views into their seasons.
“I adamantly oppose the Black Lives Matter political movement,” Loeffler said. “Which has advocated for the defunding of police, called for the removal of Jesus from churches and the disruption of the nuclear family structure, harbored anti-Semitic views, and promoted violence and destruction across the country.”
“The statement ‘Black lives matter’ is very different than the organization Black Lives Matter,” Loeffler also said. “I think we all agree the life of every African American is important.”
That’s a very reasonable perspective. No wonder the media and LeBron are so against Loeffler. To them, reasonableness is dangerous and ineffective.
If Loeffler sells and LeBron James and some woke partners do ultimately purchase the team —hopefully, it has more success than LeBron’s many ongoing TV projects…
This is great news for Loeffler. There’s no way these WNBA teams make any money. I’d bet she be happy to dump it. I’m sure Lebron would overpay as well.
Had no idea this league still exist. I would sell in a heartbeat!
I agree with Bob and Glenn. So what this has to be a money drag on the owners. If the WNBA wasn’t tied into the NBA it would have already crashed. LeBron would overpay and keep spouting communist ideals so he could tank another league. So instead of 4 fans the WNBA would have 2.
Lol…I’d sell to LeFraud too. The league doesn’t make money, nobody watches it, and even if LeFraud uses it as a Chinese money laundering scheme…it would still tank.
If he spends that money, he might not have enough to fund hits on LA PO-lice…
Tell that chicom loving POS to pound sand plus she’s got plenty cheddar don’t need that tools money
King James must be investing in virtue-signaling because someone whispered in his that this would bear fruit financially. I guess he will find out that over the long-term, it won’t happen. “Go Woke, Go Broke.”
I think the NBA and WNBA should merge into a coed league. I may watch that
The WNBA is still a thing? Both fake protesting communist coward drama queen driven shitshows should pack up and move to China.
Let Lebitch buy it. The league HEMORRHAGES money and only survives off NBA dollars, which makes it hilarious when the sports ballers in all their “genius” of the nba call for higher wages for WNBA, like it wouldn’t come out of their pockets.
James is racist and stupid.
