Leftist radio show host Charlamagne tha God ripped into former NBA star Enes Kanter Freedom on Monday for daring to stand up for women\u2019s sports.<\/p>\n

Freedom was ejected from a WNBA game the night before while sitting in the crowd wearing a shirt promoting the realities of biological sex.<\/p>\n

At some point in the game, he was heckled by a WNBA player, and for daring to stand up against her, he was subsequently booted:<\/p>\n

\"\ud83d\udea8\" HOLY CRAP! Former NBA star Enes Kanter Freedom was just EJECTED from a WNBA game for wearing a shirt with the definition of \u201cWOMAN\u201d on it<\/p>\n

You\u2019re a freaking LEGEND, @EnesFreedom<\/a> \"\ud83d\udd25\"<\/p>\n

ENES: \u201cI just got kicked out of a @WNBA<\/a> game for supporting WOMEN! Let that sink in, AMERICA!\u201d pic.twitter.com\/c0VUDvVbQO<\/a><\/p>\n

The incident came only days out from Freedom declaring himself a woman in an attempt to get drafted into the WNBA himself, so as to expose the ridiculousness and insanity of their policies.<\/p>\n

None of this seemed to appeal to Charlamagne, who, although not that political, tends to align closely with the radicalized left. So much so that he decided to label Freedom his \u201cdonkey of the day.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, donkey of the day for Monday, Aug. 24 goes to the former NBA player, Enes Kanter Freedom,\u201d he began on Monday\u2019s edition of his show. \u201cOh, what a sucker he is.\u201d<\/p>\n

Charlamagne proceeded to accuse Freedom of \u201ctrolling\u201d the WNBA players on the court during Sunday\u2019s game.<\/p>\n

How in the world was he \u201ctrolling\u201d the players? By wearing a shirt extoling the realities of biological sex.<\/p>\n

\u201cNatasha Cloud apparently saw the shirt, had some words for Enes, and Enes had some words back,\u201d Charlamagne continued. \u201cAnd during the exchange, Enes got up and briefly stepped onto the court before security intervened and eventually escorted him out of the building.\u201d<\/p>\n

Listen:<\/p>\n

\"\ud83d\udea8\" Donkey of the Day goes to former NBA player Enes Kanter Freedom for going hard over a nonexistent issue and for his confrontation with Natasha Cloud! \"\ud83d\udc40\"@CTHAGOD<\/a> breaks it all down in today\u2019s #DOTD<\/a>, powered by @msllegal<\/a>. \"\ud83d\udc02\" #MichaelTheBull<\/a> #TheBullNYC<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/6ngGPksiu8<\/a><\/p>\n

Charlamagne then briefly stated that Freedom wasn\u2019t receiving the donkey of the day designation for his political views.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnderstand something: I\u2019m not giving Enes Kanter Freedom donkey of the day because he believes biological males shouldn\u2019t compete against biological females in women\u2019s sports. I agree with him on that.\u201d<\/p>\n

That was good to know. That said, what then was the issue?<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m giving Enes donkey today because this guy has somehow decided that the best way to protect women\u2019s basketball is to disrupt women\u2019s basketball,\u201d he said. \u201cYou, Enes, have become what you claim to hate because I haven\u2019t seen anyone threaten women\u2019s basketball more than you.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cDo you think those women felt safe with your big ass out there trolling them, and then had the nerve to stand up and act like he was about to step to one of them? Make that make sense to me,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s still unclear how Freedom was \u201ctrolling\u201d anybody by just sitting quietly in the stands and then later standing up for himself against a bully.<\/p>\n

Charlamagne then moved on to attacking Freedom for declaring himself a woman because there are currently no transgender players in the WNBA.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis man declared himself eligible for the 2027 WNBA draft, saying he identifies as a woman as part of his protest against the league\u2019s transgender eligibility rules,\u201d the radio host said. \u201cMeanwhile, in the WNBA, there are currently no immediate eligibility matters affecting their league.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBasically, ain\u2019t no transgender women trying to take your job in the WNBA right now. That is not happening. So people like Enes are protesting a hypothetical. There are no biological males trying to play in the WNBA except for you. So therefore, Enes, you are actually the problem,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Wrong. Freedom\u2019s fight isn\u2019t just about the WNBA but rather about all women\u2019s sports, especially high school and college sports.<\/p>\n

Charlamagne wasn\u2019t done trash-talking Freedom.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s a difference between raising awareness about something you believe could become a problem and manufacturing a spectacle around a hypothetical problem because the spectacle gets you attention, OK?\u201d he concluded. \u201cAll you\u2019re doing is performance art, and I need you to get off the stage because your show sucks.\u201d<\/p>\n

The irony was that many feel the same about Charlamagne\u2019s own show \u2026<\/p>\n

Enes is a hero. Your hatred is disgusting. Luckily no one gives a shit about this radio show or whatever it is<\/p>\n
