The liberal media went after a group of Army and Navy cadets on Saturday in an attempt to try and smear them as racists.
As The Daily Wire reports:
Left-wing media publications were quick to smear a group of Army and Navy cadets on Saturday as the two service academies squared off on the gridiron in what is an intense football rivalry, accusing a group of them of flashing “white power” signs…
Far-left activists posted close-up videos of television screens showing what they claimed was the cadets flashing the white power sign.
As an American,
As a Navy Dad,
As a decent human being……you hate to see racist West Point cadets emboldened by the presence of the Racist-inChief at an #ArmyNavyGame to throw up the “White Power” sign on national TV.

Others urged their followers to make the photos and videos go viral on Twitter, which quickly happened as “#WhitePower” and “West Point” began trending nationally on the left-wing tech platform.
So many white people on here are calling me the N word, and other awful things.

There was strong pushback against the smear attempts, with many noting that the cadets were playing the “circle game.”
Here we go again. This time it’s @ByMikeBrehm of @usatodaysports trying to ruin the lives of cadets for playing the circle game, because in some alternate reality they just MUST be white supremacists. At some point someone’s gotta bring a defamation case against these lunatics. https://t.co/2Y8iaB1kVw

This is just idiotic. It’s a bunch of guys playing the circle game about 10 years after their friends all stopped. But ya, let’s make it out to be racist, since everything else you see and hear is as well https://t.co/0tcDjTZeDg

It seems the liberal media’s appetite for attempting to ruin the lives of conservatives and, now, service members over utterly fabricated allegations seems to know no limit.
