Riley Gaines Smacks Down ‘Deranged’ Keith Olbermann After He Tries to Slam Her Swimming Skills

Leave it to Keith Olbermann, the perpetually unemployed basement-dweller, to pick a fight with a champion like Riley Gaines, host of Gaines for Girls on OutKick.com. Spoiler alert: it didn’t end well for the guy who’s been fired more times than a circus cannon.

Olbermann, who seems to think tweeting snark from his mom’s basement qualifies as a personality, decided to take a swing at Gaines’ athletic record after Education Secretary Linda McMahon pointed out that Gaines might’ve clinched a race if not for a biological male competing. Olbermann, ever the keyboard warrior, fired off this gem:

“She finished 85th in the Olympic Trials,” the loser sneered. “She finished tied for 5th in the only race including a transgendered athlete. If there had been none, she MIGHT have finished tied for 4th, or had 5th place to herself.”

Then, because he can’t resist stepping on his own rake, he added: “[Gaines] was, somehow, a worse swimmer than she is a MAGA stooge.”

What a dork.

Big mistake, Keith. You don’t poke a lioness with a stick and expect to walk away unscathed. Gaines, a former NCAA swimming star, clapped back with the kind of precision that’d make a sniper jealous. She pointed out she was 15 during those Olympic trials.

“And I placed 5th in the nation in a sport measured in .01s of a second without going a best. Would you say the 5th-best college football player is objectively bad at their sport?” she fired back. Then came the knockout: “No. You’re just a misogynistic pig [and] an old, deranged man with a terminal case of TDS who can’t hold down a job.”

Boom! That’s gonna leave a mark. 

And she’s totally on the money about him. Olbermann’s resume reads like a rap sheet of terminations like Fox Sports, Current TV, ESPN (twice, because once wasn’t enough), and MSNBC/NBC. The man’s been canned so often he probably lists “professional firing victim” on his LinkedIn.

Not content to let him slink away, Gaines upped the ante, telling Fox News Digital she’d race Olbermann for charity. At first, she hesitated, and for good reason: “I’d challenge [Keith] to a race where the loser puts up $ to the charity of the winner’s choice, but no one wants to see him in a Speedo.”

Fair point because the mental image alone is enough to make you want to bleach your brain. But Gaines, being the class act she is, threw down the gauntlet anyway—a 200-yard freestyle for a good cause. Olbermann, predictably, scurried back to his cave, dusted the Cheeto crumbs off his keyboard, and tweeted this pathetic dodge:

“This is a brilliant idea [Riley]! A 66-year-old man with an arthritic left knee and chronic stress fractures in the right foot,” he whined. “Somebody you could finally beat!”

So shut up, Keith. Nice try. Even in your glory days, if you ever had any, you’d have been lapped by Gaines before you could say “unemployment check.” Let’s talk credentials. Gaines? A decorated NCAA swimmer with a trophy case full of accolades: 2021 and 2022 All-SEC First Team, 2022 SEC Female Scholar-Athlete of the Year, and one of the most accomplished swimmers in Kentucky’s history. Olbermann? His greatest athletic achievement was reportedly smacking his head on a subway pole at Shea Stadium in 1980, leaving him too dazed to drive. True story.

This isn’t Olbermann’s first time getting schooled by a strong woman. He once tried to tangle with Megyn Kelly over her NBC exit, and she mopped the floor with him. “But the record is very clear that I left voluntarily because I wanted to raise my family,” Kelly shot back. “Something you don’t know anything about because no one would marry you.” She didn’t stop there: “And you have no children. You have a cold, lonely life in which you’ve become a bitter, bitter man.”

He probably went back to the basement and cried quietly into his cat-pissed sofa.

And now, here’s Olbermann, still bitter, still deranged, shouting into the void, desperate for clout by attacking a woman with more talent in her pinky than he’s got in his entire rant-filled existence. Riley Gaines isn’t just a better athlete—she’s a better human. And Keith? He’s just a sad, jobless troll who keeps picking fights he can’t win. Keep swinging, buddy. You’re only knocking yourself out.

Huge win for women and girls, big defeat for Biden and handler[s]

The Biden administration's effort to modify Title IX to permit men to dominate in women's sports, walk around with their genitals exposed in their locker rooms, and bathrooms was overruled by a federal court across the nation.

Twenty-six states filed a lawsuit to prevent these new rules from taking effect, and in August, the Supreme Court temporarily halted the implementation of these rules. However, a federal court has now issued a nationwide injunction, preventing the regulations from being enforced even in states that did not join the lawsuit.

Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita, who was at the forefront of the legal challenge against the Title IX changes, described the ruling as a "huge win."

"Biden's radical Title IX rewrite has been defeated in court again," Rokita stated on X. "For now, Hoosier girls and girls nationwide are protected from biological males being able to infringe on their private spaces. Proud to be a part of the coalition of like-minded AGs fighting for this commonsense outcome."

Riley Gaines, a student-athlete who competed against big Lia Thomas, a dude, in college swimming, also lauded the ruling and tweeted:

“Huge win for girls and women everywhere!!! This morning, a federal court ruled in favor of reality. Biden’s Title IX rewrite has been vacated nationwide. Common sense is slowly returning,” Thank you, [Tennessee Attorney General Jonathan Skrmetti]!”

Skrmetti published his own post praising the decision, saying, “The court’s order is [a] resounding victory for the protection of girls’ privacy in locker rooms and showers, and for the freedom to speak biologically-accurate pronouns.”

Another massive win for TN and the country!

Alliance Defending Freedom, representing some female athletes and Christian educators opposing Biden's Title IX rules, described the court's decision as "a colossal win for women and girls across the country."

"The Biden administration's radical attempt to redefine sex not only tossed fairness, safety, and privacy for female students out the window, it also threatened free speech and parental rights," said Kristen Waggoner, CEO, President, and General Counsel of ADF. "With this ruling, the federal court in Kentucky rejected the entire Biden rule and the administration's illegal actions."

The Biden administration sought to broaden the term "sex" under Title IX, a law that bans discrimination based on sex in schools receiving federal funds. Their interpretation included "gender identity," potentially allowing biological males to compete in women's sports, which has already led to numerous women losing out on scholarships and medal opportunities.

President-elect Donald Trump has stated he would prevent men from participating in women's sports. In August, he told radio hosts Clay Travis and Buck Sexton that he would address this issue on his first day in office.

Pussy Hatters mute as Taliban bans women's voices and showing their epidermis in public

To celebrate their victory on this day three years ago when a suicide jihadi blew himself up and took 13 American military personnel with him, the Taliban is banning females, young and old, from showing their face or any part of their body in public, lest it turns the men into uncontrollable sex machines. In spite of the fact that Islam's prophet had married a 6-year-old in Ayisha, had multiple wives and sex slaves, it offends the Taliban, and thus, Allah, for men to be turned on by the flesh of the female body.

This isn't to imply that Taliban men think of women as desirable. No, they see women as "fields to plow," and are treated like possessions:

"Your wives are a place of sowing of seed for you, so come to your place of cultivation however you wish and put forth [righteousness] for yourselves. And fear Allah and know that you will meet Him. And give good tidings to the believers." (Quran 2:223)

After the Biden-Harris impetuous and deadly withdrawal from Hamid Karzai International Airport, in Kabul in 2021, the Taliban took over Afghanistan and the women were the victims left behind.

In the Taliban's latest Islamic decision, they proclaimed that it is a violation of Sharia [Islamic law] for females to show their face or any part of their body in public, or even to speak.

It's unlikely even cavemen treated their women in such a disgusting manner, but the pussy hat people have yet to check in on this vulgar display of misogyny. I suspect they will let this one slide.

It was last Wednesday that the Taliban issued Afghanistan's Sharia to prevent vice and promote, LOL, virtue by prohibiting women from leaving their home without wearing a tent. The Vice and Virtue Ministry will be on the lookout for these loose women and woe to those who disobey for it would mean arrest and only Allah [peas be up in him] knows what will happen to them. In fact, women are not even allowed to look at men they are not related to--seriously.

Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris expressed her outrage and deep concern for the Afghan women--oh wait--no she didn't. 

College campuses across the nation are angry and call on the government to do something about this horrible situation--oh, never mind--my bad.

Where is the outrage? No protests on college campuses. No statement from the White House.

& guess who's funding this? We are. pic.twitter.com/JnZ81sMbUJ— Riley Gaines (@Riley_Gaines_) August 24, 2024

So spare us your empty platitudes about oppressed women and abortion on demand up to when you can hear the baby cry out. Where are you, Sarandon? Where are you, AOC, Michelle Obama, and Oprah? In fact, where are you, Democrats?

Women like Riley Gaines and Roza Otunbayeva who heads the UN mission in Afghanistan, are the real feminists because they have the guts to speak out while the fake feminists ironically act like the Afghan women.

“After decades of war and in the midst of a terrible humanitarian crisis, the Afghan people deserve much better than being threatened or jailed if they happen to be late for prayers, glance at a member of the opposite sex who is not a family member, or possess a photo of a loved one,” Otunbayeva said.

Last year, Taliban supreme leader Hibatullah Akhundzada claimed that Afghan women are given a "comfortable and prosperous" life, despite numerous decrees restricting their access to many public spaces, education, and most employment opportunities.

So if you hear a pussy hat-wearing person complain about how oppressed women are in the West, tell them to go to Afghanistan--it's better than telling them to go to the other place below.

Keith Olbermann's newest attempt at relevance: hopes for Trump's assassination

Former semi-relevant leftist, Keith Olbermann went on social media and posted his hope that former President Donald Trump would be murdered--he used the word 'assassinated' but that's what murder is.

The lunatic leftist went onto his X account Saturday and replied to a Joe Biden campaign post which featured a video of a segment of a speech Trump recently made in Dayton, Ohio.

The “Biden-Harris HQ” post of the video was captioned: “Trump says he has been treated worse than Abraham Lincoln, who was assassinated.”

To that, crazy Olbermann responded, “There’s always hope.”

There's always the hope https://t.co/SBlFO3kKnA

This sounds like something "the worst person in the world" would say. 

Olbermann was immediately blasted with online replies to his post that calls for killing someone with differing political opinions. You would think Keith gets his opinions from Vladimir Putin. 

Here are a few of the responses to his dark statement"

Perhaps @SecretService should pay Keith a visit. We all know Keith is mentally unstable.

At the very least this is a TOS violation. @Safety @Support

I really believe Olbermann has a serious but undiagnosed mental disorder. Perhaps earlier in his not so illustrious career people thought of him as feisty and edgy, but as time went by, it became apparent that his thinking was not offbeat as much as it was crazy. 

His true character was seen last August when he told championship woman swimmer Riley Gaines that she "sucked" at swimming. The following month he called HBO host Bill Maher a "scumbag" for opposing the Hollywood writer's strike.

Olbermann left MSNBC in early January 2015 for reasons unknown. My guess is that he "sucked" as a tv host.

Parents of boy allows him to beat girls in high jump competition

Don't let earrings and long hair fool you: he's a below-average high jumper

A high school sophomore who was born with XY chromosomes, an Adam's apple, penis and testicles and a decent amount of testosterone, took away the girl's first place trophy at the New Hampshire Interscholastic Athletic Association (NHIAA) indoor track and field championship. He was able to do this simply by letting his hair grow and calling himself a girl.

The dude jumped 5'2" to beat the second place girl by a mere one inch, but had he competed against fellow, uh, fellows, he would have been beaten by about a foot in the competition by the boys.

Maelle Jacques, who celebrated [and pretended to be] a female competitor failed to match his winning jump.

His parents had no problem allowing him to cheat in the event because, as every kindergarten child knows, boys generally beat girls in sports that require speed and strength. It's rather disgusting how society now looks the other way when scholarships and fame are whisked away from females by nothing more than mediocre males who would never win against their peers.

Twelve-time All-American swimmer Riley Gaines slammed Jacques’ parents, posting on X, “How could the parents of this boy allow their son to cheat deserving women out of opportunities? And why don’t the parents of the girls stand up and say ‘no’ for their daughters? This country is full of failing, gutless mothers and fathers.”

Females need to stand together and refuse to compete against males in sports. 

Imagine if Riley Gaines along with her female competitors stood on the starting platforms and did not jump when the gun went off, leaving Will [aka Lia] Thomas to swim alone. That would send an incredibly powerful message to college sports. The same would happen with other events.

The NHIAA has an eligibility policy that asserts, “The NHIAA is committed to providing transgender student-athletes with equal opportunities to participate in NHIAA athletic programs consistent with their gender identity. The NHIAA has concluded that it would be fundamentally unjust and contrary to applicable state and federal law to preclude a student from participation on a gender-specific sports team that is consistent with the public gender identity of that student for all other purposes.”

Balderdash! 

You have your own rudder, swim against males who have the same. If you're a male who believes you're a female, swim against other gender dysphoric mentally ill competitors. Stop stealing the limelight, the trophies, the scholarships and the thousands of hours top female athletes put into their sport.

Ask yourself, why is it that we don't see transgender 'men' successfully competing with real men in sports?

Women jiu-jitsu competitors drop out of tournament due to their understanding of biology and men who fight as "women"

A few women competitors slated to compete at a jiu-jitsu tournament last weekend wisely refused to fight against men who say they identify as women as their mental illness dictates. 

This calls to mind Fallon Fox, another man who identified as a woman. He caused a serious concussion to his female opponent in just 39 seconds of the fight, a fight in which the woke announcer referred to him as a "she."

So the women who dropped out of the jiu-jitsu tournament knew that fighting a man whose delusion of being a woman is respected by the woke, would be too dangerous and might end their own careers.

The fact is, the men who compete against women by claiming to be a woman in a man's body, tend not to be more than mediocre in their previous men's category so it's to their advantage, with their biological advantage, to compete against women. Sadly, many women have lost college scholarships due to the selfishness of men.

The women who were scheduled to compete in the jiu-jitsu competition say they weren't warned ]and warned is the perfect word] that they would be fighting gender dysphoric men in recent matches. They had been forced to fight such men in previous tournaments. The policy change came on October 28 after the women finally grew a pair and boycotted the competition last weekend.

This is the only way change will be affected. 

Women just have to refuse, and perhaps do it at the last minute such as when they're standing on the block at a swimming event, and just stand there as people like Lia Thomas jump in. Imagine how it will look as he swims alone and the spectators see that. They simply have to refuse each time and changes will have to take place.

Why should women, who have trained for years, have to lose to a man? That's why it's a different category. I can see how there is crossover in such sports as shooting and archery. Even the Alaskan Iditerod dog sled race has had a woman champion, but speed, strength, and size in competition favors men. Of course that isn't to say that women cannot beat men, but overall there is a greater advantage for men.

One of the professional female martial artists, Jayden Alexander, said she was left ‘devastated’ after fighting a man, who claimed to be a woman, in July and had self-excluded from future competitions to avoid fighting them again because she isn't stupid.

"The experience was horrible and scary,’ Alexander said in a recent social media post about the experience. ‘I was absolutely in fight or flight mode and as a seasoned competitor, I can honestly say I’ve never been there mentally before in a match.

"In the upcoming months, when I went to compete again, I had to self-exclude from a world series of Jiu Jitsu and from a women’s absolute bracket at a NAGA to avoid competing with not one but two trans-male athletes," she explained.

But when women speak out, such as Riley Gaines who swam against Lia Thomas, they are often labeled 'transphobic'. And being labeled as such can get you killed, at least figuratively.

People supporting male athletes competing against females attack female swim champion who lost to male

Female swimming champion Riley Gaines was forced to barricade herself in a safe room Thursday after radical activists who support athletic competition of men, swarmed her. This criminal activity took place when Miss Gaines visited San Francisco State University to advocate for the rights of female athletes.

Gaines has highlighted the fact that these so called transgender women [aka mediocre athletic men] have an unfair biological advantage over women in sports requiring strength and/or speed. And since this is the United States of America, she has the right to fact-based opinion without having to fear for her safety from those who disagree.

Gaines, a former University of Kentucky star who was deprived of an NCAA award by a self-serving man named Lia Thomas, the University of Pennsylvania swimmer who claims to be female and competes against women, was at the school as part of a Turning Point USA event. 

Video on social media shows Gaines being hustled to safety by police officers as a mob of radical transgender activists follows her, shouting “Trans rights are human rights!”

Free speech is also human rights, but the left only feels that way when it supports their agenda.

“The prisoners are running the asylum at SFSU,” Gaines tweeted. “This is proof that women need sex-protected spaces. Still only further assures me I’m doing something right. When they want you silent, speak louder.”

Yes, as they say, if you're catching flak, you're over the target.

The prisoners are running the asylum at SFSU…I was ambushed and physically hit twice by a man. This is proof that women need sex-protected spaces.

Still only further assures me I'm doing something right. When they want you silent, speak louder. 🗣️ pic.twitter.com/uJW3x9RERf

— Riley Gaines (@Riley_Gaines_)

Gaines began her speech on protecting female athletes from unfair competition when non-athletic, flabby-skinned, protesters burst into the room where she was speaking. As she was being escorted to safety, she was physically assaulted, she said.

“I’m OK currently, but an hour and a half later, I’m still barricaded in a room with ambushers on the outside yelling and threatening violence,” Gaines said. “As police escorted me out of the event space to my current location, I was hit, physically, twice by what I presume was a male individual. This only assures me I’m doing the right thing.”

It is unknown whether or not the male that hit her was on the female MMA team, but he hasn't been arrested and some Democrats are calling him brave.

It was unknow how long Ms. Gaines was barricaded in the room, but the event began at 7 p.m. local time, and at midnight, police were still dispersing the Marxists.

Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk blasted the protesters behind the ugly and cowardly incident.

“This is unacceptable at an American college campus, even in San Francisco,” Kirk tweeted. “Pray for Riley Gaines and for our brave students at SFSU.”

Gaines’s agent, Eli Bremer, said Gaines will not back down from the mob.

“Instead of a thoughtful discussion tonight at SFSU, Riley was violently accosted, shouted at, physically assaulted, and barricaded in a room by protestors. It is stunning that in America in 2023, it is acceptable for biological male students to violently assault a woman for standing up for women’s rights,” Bremer said in a statement. “This will not stop Riley from boldly educating people of the dangers of biological males in women’s sports. She will continue to speak the truth against the radical left that no longer understands the difference between men and women.”

The left simply cannot handle thoughtful discussion because their points are weak tea. 

Gaines, an All-American at the University of Kentucky and a five-time Southeastern Conference champion, tied the fully penised and testicled Thomas at last year’s NCAA championships. That's how mediocre and selfish Mr. Thomas is.

But things appear to be changing as real men see this sudden trans dominance against women in competition as unfair. In Canada, a bearded powerlifter entered a women's competition identifying as a woman. Previously, the record was held by a man who identified as a woman and he had been watching the competition from the sidelines.

Avi Silverberg

Avi Silverberg, the head coach for Team Canada Powerlifting for over 10 years, entered the Saturday's Heroes Classic tournament in Alberta, identifying as a woman and casually bench-pressed 370 pounds---beating the mediocre trans athlete by almost 100 pounds.

I say to Avi Silverberg, more power to him. It's about time a good guy shows a selfish trans athlete just how selfish they are to compete against women.

Finally, women athletes who find themselves in competition against men who claim they're women, ought to think twice about competing. It's easy for me to say since I'm not vying for a scholarship or money, but if women simply bowed out of these contests, something would have to be done.
