Tom Brady is known to shy away from making any political statement but on Tuesday during the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ visit to the White House, the reigning Super Bowl MVP made a veiled dig at President Donald Trump over his claims of election fraud.
Brady, 43, joined Bucs’ co-owner Bryan Glazer, head coach Bruce Arians, and several of his teammates on the South Lawn of the White House to celebrate their Super Bowl LV victory over the Kansas City Chiefs. During his speech, the veteran quarterback took a subtle dig at Trump’s claims of voting irregularities in the 2020 election, relating it to the Bucs season.
"Not a lot of people think that we could have won and in fact, I think 40% of the people still don’t think we won," Brady said, turning to Biden. "You understand that, Mr. President." -snip
Even Tom Brady is ripping Trump/Trumpers foolishness now. El-oh-El.

So yo are going to re-imagine things. Not surprised.Fox was/is Trump's personal network. eg Sean Hannity would literally repeat what Trump said from earlier in the day and vice versa.
Maybe I've misremembered, I won't deny that.
But what you mean you aren't surprised? I try and make my trolling ultra obvious, and normally lean to earnest and semi-ignorant, I thought you knew me better than that. 🙁
New Inquiry Into Kavanaugh Investigation
Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation hearings in the fall of 2018 were highly controversial for a variety of reasons, including the scope of the FBI background check that was supposed to be part of the process.
A group of Democratic senators is demanding more answers from the FBI after the agency revealed new details about the limited scope of its supplemental investigation into Brett Kavanaugh's background when he was a nominee for the Supreme Court.
In a June 30th letter to Senators Sheldon Whitehouse and Chris Coons that was made public Thursday, Jill Tyson of the FBI's congressional affairs office acknowledged that the department conducted only 10 additional interviews in its supplemental investigation, even though it had received over 4,500 tips.
According to the FBI's Tyson, the "relevant tips" from phone calls and messages were forwarded to the counsel's office in the Trump White House.
What did then-White House Counsel Donald McGahn do with the "relevant tips?" Not a damn thing.
McGahn had no interest in discovering what his handpicked nominee had done, or not done. He had every interest in ensuring that Kavanaugh be confirmed, facts be damned.
If there was any follow-up within the FBI itself, there is no indication of that. And that is the outrage here. The FBI's investigation into sexual assault allegations against Kavanaugh was not designed to uncover the truth.
Donald Trump recently said in reference to Kavanaugh, "I saved his life. He wouldn't even be in a law firm. Who would have had him? Nobody. Totally disgraced. Only I saved him. I saved his life, and I saved his career."
This new context from Tyson really explains that quote.
Christopher Wray and Donald McGahn better have some very good reasons.
But Trump picked the three Justices he did solely on the grounds that he believed they'd be loyal and "owe" him fealty and take up/side with any cause he wanted. The 2020 election being decided by the SC being Trump's main concern.
In Trump's own words:
"I think this election will end up in the Supreme Court. And I think it's very important that we have nine justices. This scam that the Democrats are pulling - it's a scam - the scam will be before the United States Supreme Court. And I think having a 4-4 situation is not a good situation, if you get that. I don't know that you'd get that. I think it should be 8-0 or 9-0. But just in case it would be more political than it should be, I think it's very important to have a ninth justice." -Trump
Trump will not have GOP defense next week 🙂
