Enes Kanter Freedom Wants To Join The GOP House!

Will Laura Ingraham tell him to shut up and dribble?

Former NBA star comes out as a Republican and wants to run for Congress. Again, on Fox, Enes Kanter (Freedom) has considered a possible 2024 House run. He has become popular in Republican circles and frequently appears on conservative TV shows, says he is considering running for office.

“I actually do, yes,” Kanter Freedom said on Fox Business Network’s “Mornings with Maria” when asked if he had interest in running for office. “I would actually, when the time is right.”

Again, I hope Dominion Systems wins its lawsuit against Fox. They have went from a propaganda tool for the Republican Party to a full fledged white nationalist network.

Spreading misinformation, allowing crazy people to rant on their programs, getting upset of "woke" when they don't even know what the definition of the fucking word and endless trashing President Joe Biden for things that Washed Up 45 was allowed to get away with.

Kanter Freedom, who grew up in Turkey, has been an outspoken critic of the Turkish and Chinese governments. In particular, he has blasted the NBA for its relationship with China given the country’s detainment and abuse of millions of Uyghurs and other ethnic minorities, which the Biden administration has declared a genocide.

Kanter Freedom also took aim at basketball icon LeBron James, who recently broke the NBA’s all-time scoring record. He accused James of standing up against injustices in the U.S. but not in China because “the things that he talks about in America is not going to affect his money or business.”

“It’s not going to affect his jersey sales or shoe sales, whatever,” Kanter Freedom said. 

Kanter Freedom attended lunches with Senate Republicans and the House Republican Study Committee last year, and was also set to be a speaker at the Conservative Political Action Coalition conference before later canceling on the event.

He said he has not started fundraising for a possible campaign yet, but he has discussed the possibility with people close to him and lawmakers. 

“I haven’t started yet,” Kanter Freedom said. “But I started to have conversations with some of my friends and members of Congress.”

Laura Ingraham infamously said about athletes and entertainers who talk politics.

"If pro athletes and entertainers want to freelance as political pundits, then they should not be surprised when they’re called out for insulting politicians," Ingraham said. "There was no racial intent in my remarks – false, defamatory charges of racism are a transparent attempt to immunize entertainment and sports elites from scrutiny and criticism." 

"You’re great players, but no one voted for you. Millions elected Trump to be their coach. So keep the political commentary to yourself or, as someone once said, shut up and dribble.”
