<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Actor Frankie Muniz has made his mark in the racing world after finishing in the top 10 on Friday in his fifth NASCAR truck series race, a support event at the Daytona International Speedway that led up to the main event, the Daytona 500, on Sunday.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The 39-year-old, best known for his starring role in the FOX TV sitcom “Malcolm in the Middle” which ran from 2000-2006, </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">initially came in 11th place but ended up being bumped into the 10th after Parker </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Kligerman was disqualified because his truck did not meet the minimum post-race height requirement.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;I couldn&#8217;t ask for anything better. I think this truck was so fast,&#8221; the actor told </span><a href="https://x.com/bobpockrass/status/1890607786163130445?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1890607786163130445%7Ctwgr%5E3218acc67875e88a4402b5b76e1455d9ba6dc351%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxsports.com%2Fstories%2Fnascar%2Ffrankie-muniz-celebrates-strong-daytona-finish-its-no-act"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Fox Sports</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> after the race. &#8220;I know I have to prove myself here.”</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Last year, I didn&#8217;t have the opportunity to do that. And not that this fully does that,” he added. &#8220;This is great. This is a step. Hopefully, I earn respect. I&#8217;m in the Ford technical meeting with the other drivers, and&#8230; even though we&#8217;re manufacturer teammates&#8230; I still don&#8217;t think they know what I can do or not.&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;I want to earn their respect,” Muniz continued. “And the only way to do that is to do it on the track. I&#8217;m happy. This was, this was great. This was awesome.&#8221;</span></p>

<p>&#8220;Today, I look forward to joining tens of thousands of American Patriots in Daytona Beach, Florida, for the &#8216;Great American Race&#8217; — the legendary Daytona 500 — and the official start to the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series,&#8221; Trump said in a statement. &#8220;This iconic race showcases the fastest, most fearless drivers in motorsports, who represent our Nation’s love of tradition, competition, and automotive innovation. The Daytona 500 brings together people from all walks of life — from lifelong racing fans to first-time spectators — they all join in celebrating a shared passion for speed, adrenaline, and the thrill of the race. From the roar of the engines on the track to the echo of &#8216;The Star-Spangled Banner&#8217; soaring through the stands, the Daytona 500 is a timeless tribute to the speed, strength, and unyielding spirit that make America great. That spirit is what will fuel America’s Golden Age, and if we harness it, the future is truly ours.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Since the very beginning, NASCAR has carried forth a proud tradition of honoring our heroic Service members for their unwavering courage. While fans from around the world gather today at Daytona International Speedway, we extend our unending gratitude to the selfless men and women in uniform who risk their lives to keep us safe. When the engines start or the checkered flag waves, and all 500 thrilling miles in between, our Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, Marines, Coast Guardsmen, and Guardians stand ready to defend cherished traditions like this—and for that, we are truly thankful,&#8221; Trump added. &#8220;Melania and I send our best wishes for a safe and successful race. May God bless our Armed Forces, and may He continue to bless the United States of America.&#8221;</p>
<p>Last weekend, Trump attended the Super Bowl in New Orleans, where the Philadelphia Eagles defeated the Kansas City Chiefs 40-22. The Daily Wire <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-slams-taylor-swift-after-crowd-booed-her-at-super-bowl" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> how Trump took a swipe at Taylor Swift, who is dating Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and had endorsed now-former Vice President Kamala Harris for president in the 2024 election, with a post to Truth Social that noted how fans booed the singer when she was shown on TV.</p>
<p>“The only one that had a tougher night than the Kansas City Chiefs was Taylor Swift. She got BOOED out of the Stadium. MAGA is very unforgiving!” he wrote on social media, adding video clips of her getting booed and another shot of the crowd cheering the American flag.</p>

<p>From President Joe Biden and the U.S. Department of Defense to the MLB, NASCAR, and even Sesame Street, the annual homage to &#8220;Pride Month&#8221; went into full gear on Saturday.</p>
<p>Pride Month, celebrated annually in June, has turned into a massive display by companies, celebrities, and politicians seeking to show their support for the LGBT community from June 1 to June 30. As with years past, Pride parades are also scheduled in cities and towns across the U.S. where lesbian, gay, and trans-identifying people will celebrate their sexual identities in the streets while waving rainbow flags.</p>
<p>&#8220;For generations, LGBTQI+ Americans have summoned the courage to live proudly – even when it meant putting their lives at risk,&#8221; President Joe Biden tweeted first thing Saturday morning. &#8220;This Pride Month, we recommit to realizing the promise of America for all, to celebrating LGBTQI+ people, and to taking pride in the example they set.&#8221;</p>

<p style="font-weight: 400;">After Sunday night’s NASCAR All-Star Race, Ricky Stenhouse Jr. fired a punch at Kyle Busch because Busch had used his car to shove Stenhouse Jr. into a crash with the wall on Lap 2, forcing him out of the race.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Busch was apparently prompted to retaliate after Stenhouse Jr. went three-wide on the first lap. Stenhouse could not exit the track until the race was over, as the North Wilkesboro track had no way out of the infield. Stenhouse Jr. parked his car in Busch&#8217;s pit stall and told an interviewer he would be waiting for Busch, Yahoo Sports <a href="https://sports.yahoo.com/nascar-ricky-stenhouse-jr-throws-punch-at-kyle-busch-after-all-star-race-020311803.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>, adding that he mentioned the 2011 incident when car owner Richard Childress, 65,  <a href="https://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nascar-from-the-marbles/richard-childress-faces-discipline-punching-kyle-busch-150715971.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">punched</a> Busch, then 26. Busch had door-slammed Joey Coulter, who raced for Childress in the O&#8217;Reilly Auto Parts 250.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“You hit the fence yourself. I didn’t touch you,” Stenhouse Jr. told Busch. “Go back and watch &#8230; I did not touch you. Not once. &#8230; You hit the fence and then you hit me. .. Go back and watch it.” Then, he took a swing at Busch.</p>

<p style="font-weight: 400;">“He left the door wide open, I went through the middle, almost had him clear, the 34 [of Michael McDowell] kind of ran up the track and we all kind of touched there — nothing major,” Stenhouse told <a href="https://www.foxsports.com/stories/nascar/ricky-stenhouse-jr-kyle-busch-fight-after-all-star-race">Fox Sports</a>. “Then Kyle tried to wreck me in [Turns] 3 and 4 and then finally did wreck me in [Turns] 1 and 2. &#8230; He just did a poor job on the start and then was mad about it — I think that&#8217;s the way his season has gone. I’m not sure why he was so mad. I shoved it three-wide, but he hit the fence and kind of came off the wall and ran into me. I don’t know, when I was talking to him, he kept saying that I wrecked him. Definitely built up frustration with how he runs his mouth all the time about myself. I know he’s frustrated because he doesn’t run near as good as he used to.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">On the way to his stall, Busch said, “First lap of the race, we don&#8217;t even have water temp in the car yet and we&#8217;re wrecking each other off of [Turn] 2. I am tired of getting run over by everybody. But that&#8217;s what everybody does — everybody runs over everybody to pass everybody.”</p>

<p style="font-weight: 400;">“I felt like Kyle and I have always raced each other really hard back to the Nationwide Series when we were competing for wins week in and week out, never had any issues,” Stenhouse said after the fracas. “I wrecked him one time at Daytona and he&#8217;s kind of badmouthed me ever since then. I feel like we get along with each other OK outside the race track, I talk to him quite a bit and I&#8217;m not sure why he was so mad that I shoved it three-wide but he hit the fence and kind of came off the wall and ran into me and I don&#8217;t know, when I was talking to him he kept saying that I wrecked him. So definitely just built up frustration with how he runs his mouth all the time about myself but I know he&#8217;s frustrated because he doesn&#8217;t run near as good as he used to and I understand that.

<p>Former NASCAR and IndyCar driver <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/danica-patrick-explains-why-she-got-breast-implants-and-has-since-taken-them-out-after-suffering-health-issues" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Danica Patrick</a> is refusing to back down from her right-of-center political views after facing backlash from the Left.</p>
<p>Patrick earlier this month took heat from leftists when she posted a photo of herself and her sister at a Turning Point USA (TPUSA) <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/C1HzUx1JH2P/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;ig_rid=e4cd1d46-ee05-47cf-ba59-22bcfbea7777" target="_blank" rel="noopener">conference</a>. Leftists said in response that they were disappointed in the athlete, would unfollow her, and consider her &#8220;canceled.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Y&#8217;all are losing your damn minds over my Turning Point post,&#8221; Patrick wrote on her Instagram stories Friday, as <a href="https://www.outkick.com/danica-patrick-tpusa-event-republican-conservative-response/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">captured</a> by Outkick reporter David Hookstead. &#8220;Here is where I stand with some current issues and politics.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I am not a liberal,&#8221; she wrote. &#8220;I am somewhere between Republican and independent. I think our country should be run by someone that knows business and has integrity. I believe we should be able to speak freely. I don&#8217;t think our food and skies should be poisoned. I think it’s bulls*** that Democrats can be proud but a Republican can’t in society.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;As a result, there is so much propaganda that penetrates mainstream media,&#8221; Patrick continued. &#8220;I love this country and I have lived other places. I believe when people of different opinions speak face to face we realize we are more similar than different. I don’t believe everything anyone says.&#8221;</p>
<p>“I have been very torn over the years if I should give a s*** about politics or just live the life I want as an example,&#8221; she added. &#8220;I have been doing the [latter]. The reaction today is definitely interesting … since all I said was, I love this country.”</p>

<p>In her original post, Patrick added photos from the conference, including a photo of MAGA hats, and captioned it: &#8220;Sister came to town to check out [TPUSA] with me! Dad replied to our pic with &#8211; perfect daughters. 😜 we do love our country…. so AMfest (America fest) makes sense. 🇺🇸.&#8221;</p>

‘I Am Not A Liberal … I Love This Country’: Danica Patrick Won’t Apologize For Her Views

Danica Patrick Won’t Apologize For Her Pro-America Views 

Conservatism

<p>NASCAR driver Ryan Preece was discharged from a Florida hospital early Sunday morning, nearly 12 hours after his Ford Mustang violently barrel-rolled about a dozen times during the Coke Zero Sugar 400 at Daytona International Speedway.</p>
<p>Stewart-Haas Racing <a href="https://twitter.com/StewartHaasRcng" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> on X that Preece was returning to North Carolina after overnight observation at the Halifax Health Medical Center, where he had been “awake, alert and mobile” and “communicating with family and friends,” according to a previous update.</p>
<p>The 32-year-old professional racecar driver was on Lap 156 of the 160-lap race of Saturday’s NASCAR Cup Series when Preece’s No. 41 Stewart-Haas Racing Ford lifted off the ground, tumbled in the air, and rolled on the grass near the racetracks back straightaway before coming to a complete stop on all four tires.</p>

<p>“This is just violent,” NASCAR on NBC analyst Jeff Burton said. “Look at this car. That is just amazing that something that weighs over 3,500 pounds can get in the air like that.”</p>

<p>When Preece’s vehicle finally stabilized on the ground, he climbed out with the help of AMR Safety Team emergency workers, who transported him on a gurney and into an ambulance to the infield care center, then to Halifax Health Center.</p>
<p>“If you want to be a race car driver, you better be tough. &#8230; I’m coming back,” Preece said in an <a href="https://twitter.com/RyanPreece_/status/1695645425347264887?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener">X-post</a> about two hours after the race.</p>

<p>Briscoe reportedly said he had seen his teammate after the race but was thinking about Preece and his family.</p>
<p>“Obviously, Ryan got turned or something and came across my nose, and then we all started wrecking,’ Briscoe <a href="https://www.racingamerica.com/news/nascar/ryan-preece-transported-to-local-hospital-following-vicious-flip">told</a> Racing America. “Just thinking about him and his family, you know that’s a teammate there. Just super unfortunate to see that happen to anybody, let alone a teammate. Hopefully, he’s OK. Just thinking about him and praying for him.”</p>
<p>Briscoe experienced a similar crash during the Coke Zero Sugar 400 in 2022 when his vehicle launched into the air after getting spun off Turn 4.</p>

<p>“We can’t wreck cars like that every time we come to a superspeedway,” he said. “These cars, with how the bottom is, as soon as they get any air, it just flips them right over. Whenever you’re running 190 mph, and you go airborne, it’s not good. Especially when there’s grass and stuff involved. We definitely need to do something. I don’t know what it is that we can do, but we need to do something.”</p>
<p>Saturday night’s race was Preece’s final chance to qualify for the 2023 playoffs, according to <a href="https://www.motorsport.com/nascar-cup/news/violent-airborne-wreck-ryan-preece-hospital-daytona/10512111/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Motorsport.com</a>.</p>
<p>After emergency crews transported Preece off the track, the race went into overtime, where Chris Buescher scored the victory.</p>
<p>“Ryan is a good friend of mine,” Buescher told NBC. “While we were in Victory Lane, we got word that he’s at the hospital, that they’re running through a lot of stuff and that he’s doing well. That’s good to hear.”</p>

<p>NASCAR faced backlash online over the weekend after it suspended a driver for &#8220;his actions on social media.&#8221;</p>
<p>Noah Gragson was suspended by NASCAR and Legacy Motor Club after he reportedly liked a meme on Instagram that mocked George Floyd&#8217;s death.</p>
<p>https://twitter.com/goddeketal/status/1687960657365229573</p>
<p>Both NASCAR and Legacy Motor Club released statements confirming the decision.</p>
<p>&#8220;NASCAR fully supports Legacy Motor Club’s decision to suspend Noah Gragson,&#8221; NASCAR said in a statement. &#8220;Following his actions on social media, NASCAR has determined that Gragson has violated the Member Conduct section of the 2023 NASCAR Rule Book and has placed him under indefinite suspension.&#8221;</p>
<p>Legacy Motor Club said in a statement: &#8220;We have made the decision to suspend Noah Gragson effective immediately regarding his actions that do not represent the values of our team.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Josh Berry will drive the No. 42 entry for this weekend&#8217;s NASCAR Cup Series race at Michigan,&#8221; the team added.</p>
<p>Gragson apologized for liking the meme, writing: &#8220;I am disappointed in myself for my lack of attention and actions on social media.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I understand the severity of this situation,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;I love and appreciate everyone. I try to treat everyone equally no matter who they are. I messed up plain and simple.&#8221;</p>
<p>Some of the backlash that NASCAR faced included:</p>

<p>NASCAR has faced <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/woke-nascar-blasted-over-pride-month-tweet-they-spit-in-your-face-constantly">increasing backlash</a> in recent years for becoming increasingly woke despite the core of its fanbase being comprised mainly of conservatives.</p>
<p>During Pride Month last year, NASCAR was mocked and criticized after it appeared to apologize for letting Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott wave the green flag ahead of the May 22, 2022, All-Star Race at Texas Motor Speedway.</p>
<p><b data-stringify-type="bold"><a class="c-link c-link--focus-visible" href="https://onelink.to/dwapp" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-stringify-link="https://onelink.to/dwapp" data-sk="tooltip_parent" aria-describedby="sk-tooltip-81387">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILY WIRE APP</a></b></p>
<p>Abbott had told state health agencies in February that highly controversial &#8220;sex change&#8221; operations for children who claim to be transgender &#8220;constitute child abuse under existing Texas law.&#8221;</p>
<p>NASCAR responded: &#8220;As we celebrate the LGBTQ+ community, we acknowledge that recent actions have not aligned with NASCAR’s mission to be a welcoming sport for all. We remain steadfast in our commitment to create a more inclusive environment &#8212; in our workplaces, at the race track &amp; in the stands.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p>NASCAR faced a wide range of negative responses to the tweet, including:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Dave Rubin</strong>, podcast host: &#8220;What freakin’ flag is that? You virtue signaling weirdos….&#8221;</li>
<li><strong>Dana Loesch</strong>, radio host: &#8220;Are people shooing gays away from the track or something?&#8221;</li>
<li><strong>Jesse Kelly</strong>, radio host: “NASCAR feels comfortable doing this because you’ll still sit down with your family and watch the races. They spit in your face constantly because you’re too weak to do anything about it. 90%+of NASCAR fans hate this. But they all watch and cheer anyway.”</li>
<li><strong>Caleb Hull</strong>, digital strategist: &#8220;Perfect example of wokeness invading a business to the point where they have completely lost touch with their customer base.&#8221;</li>
<li><strong>Curtis Houck</strong>, NewsBusters: &#8220;Apparently #NASCAR is super sorry to the LGBTQ woke mob that Greg Abbott was allowed to be at the All-Star Race and wave the green flag. &#8230; People on here triggered that a politician was allowed to be at a race in a red state and wave the green flag need to grow up. People who don&#8217;t vote as you do shouldn&#8217;t be forced into either caving or be silenced.&#8221;</li>
<li><strong>Collin Pruett</strong>, former DHS official: &#8220;America needs a new racing circuit so badly. Identical cars, Bubba Wallace debacle, rebel flag bans… now this. Bring back moonshine and dirt tracks!&#8221;</li>
<li><strong>Harmeet K. Dhillon</strong>, attorney: &#8220;Woke NASCAR? WTH?! What next, woke MMA?&#8221;</li>

<p>A month after the tragedy, Johnson released <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CvQSgjJp5Nt/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a statement</a> on his Instagram account expressing gratitude for those who have reached out.</p>
<p>“Our family is devastated by the profound loss of [Terry] Lynn, Jack and Dalton Janway,” Johnson wrote. “We have been humbled by the outpouring of love and support during this unthinkably sad time and remain grateful for all of your compassion.”</p>

<p>The parents of Johnson’s wife, Chandra Janway, along with the seven-time champion’s 11-year-old nephew, were found shot to death in their Muskogee, Oklahoma, home on June 26, the New York Post <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/06/27/jimmie-johnsons-in-laws-dead-in-apparent-murder-suicide/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>. Jack Janway, 69, his wife Terry, 68, and their grandson Dalton were found.</p>
<p>Reports indicate that it was Johnson’s mother-in-law, Terry, who shot and killed her husband and grandson before calling 911 to report that someone had a gun, then quickly ended the call. She then turned the gun on herself and took her own life, police said, according to the New York Post.</p>
<p>Police arrived at the home to find a body lying in the hallway just inside the front door. They then heard gunshots and pulled the body out of the home before asking anyone else inside to come out, the Post reported. They found the other two bodies in a different part of the house.</p>
<p>Police have not said which bodies were found where.</p>

<p>NASCAR champion Jimmie Johnson’s in-laws were found dead on Monday in a suspected murder-suicide.</p>
<p>The parents of Johnson’s wife Chandra Janway, along with the seven-time champion’s 11-year-old nephew, were found shot to death in their Muskogee, Oklahoma, home late Monday, the New York Post <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/06/27/jimmie-johnsons-in-laws-dead-in-apparent-murder-suicide/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>. Jack Janway, 69, his wife Terry, 68, and their grandson Dalton were found in what authorities are investigating as a murder-suicide.</p>
<p>Reports indicate that it was Johnson’s mother-in-law, Terry, who shot and killed her husband and grandson before calling 911 to report that someone had a gun before quickly hanging up. She then turned the gun on herself and took her own life, police said according to the New York Post.</p>
<p>Police arrived at the home to find a body lying in the hallway just inside the front door. They then heard gunshots and pulled the body out of the home before asking anyone else inside to come out, the Post reported. They found the other two bodies in a different part of the house.</p>
<p>Police have not said which bodies were found where.</p>
<p>Johnson was scheduled to race at a street event in Chicago this weekend, but has withdrawn due to the tragedy.</p>

<p>This is not the first tragedy suffered by the Janway family.</p>
<p>In 2014, Jordan Janway, Chandra’s younger brother, was killed in a skydiving accident, KNSD-TV <a href="https://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/local/jordan-janway-san-diego-skydiving-accident-fatal-fall-midair-collision/1973471/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> at the time. Jordan was described by the outlet as a seasoned skydiver who died following a midair collision. Jordan’s death came just hours after Johnson finished second in a race at Martinsville Speedway.</p>
<p>&#8220;The Johnsons are saddened by the tragic passing of Chandra&#8217;s brother, Jordan Janway, 27,&#8221; the family said in a post on Johnson’s personal website. &#8220;Jordan was an incredible son, brother, uncle and friend and will be dearly missed. Please keep the Janway family in your thoughts and prayers. The family asks for privacy at this time.&#8221;</p>
<p>The cause of Jordan’s death was attributed to a chip that should have automatically deployed his parachute during an emergency undergoing maintenance and not in his parachute that day. Since Jordan had completed more than 1,000 skydives, he was not required to have the chip with him and had chosen to jump without it.</p>

NASCAR Champion Jimmie Johnson’s In-Laws Die In Suspected Murder-Suicide. It Wasn’t Their First Tragedy.

NASCAR Champion Jimmie Johnson's In-Laws Die In Suspected Murder-Suicide. It Wasn't Their First Tragedy.

Crime

<p>LSU star gymnast Olivia Dunne made waves over the weekend by posting a patriotic video while attending a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/nascar" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NASCAR</a> race in which she declared that her pronouns were &#8220;USA.&#8221;</p>
<p>The 20-year-old All-American athlete has more than 7.6 million followers on TikTok and more than 4.2 million followers on Instagram. Due to her enormous popularity, she makes millions of dollars per year in endorsement deals — more than any other female college athlete — while continuing to compete at LSU.</p>
<p>The video that she posted on Sunday already has more than four million views on TikTok alone and has nearly half a million likes.</p>
<p>In the video, Dunne, standing next to two young uniformed U.S. Army soldiers at the race, states: &#8220;My pronouns are U-S-A!&#8221;</p>

<p>Dunne, who was also a 2023 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model, had a VIP pass for the race at Nashville Superspeedway, according to the <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/06/26/olivia-dunne-takes-over-nascar-race-start-your-engines/">New York Post</a>.</p>
<p>She shared an image of herself with a headset on at the race that featured the caption, &#8220;Start your engines&#8230;&#8221;</p>
<p>NASCAR even shared a photo of Dunne posing for a picture with NASCAR driver Chase Elliott.</p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Disney, NASCAR, and Kohl’s are among the companies under scrutiny for their financial support of the Trevor Project, a pro-LGBT organization that critics say enables sexual predators. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The “</span><a href="https://consumersresearch.org/woke-alert/woke-alert-disney-bank-of-america-nascar-chipotle-kohls-gm/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">woke alert</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">” flagging the corporations’ support of the Trevor Project was issued by </span><a href="https://consumersresearch.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Consumers’ Research</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, a nonprofit organization that </span><a href="https://consumersresearch.org/history/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">seeks to</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> “educate and protect consumers.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“These six corporations are among those </span><a href="https://www.thetrevorproject.org/corporate-partners/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">funneling millions of dollars</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">to the </span><a href="https://nypost.com/2022/09/01/mom-discovers-depravity-in-trevor-projects-trans-chat-room/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Trevor Project,</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">an organization that hosts a</span> <a href="https://www.thetrevorproject.org/visit-trevorspace/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">private chat room</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">in which adults prey on vulnerable children,” the alert from Consumers’ Research says. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Bank of America, Chipotle, and General Motors were also identified in the alert, which was intended to “highlight another disturbing example of Woke Capitalism.”</span></p>
<p>The &#8220;woke alert&#8221; notes that Kohl&#8217;s supports the group with its <a href="https://www.kohls.com/catalog.jsp?CN=Assortment:Pride&amp;cc=di-TN2.0-S-pride" target="_blank" rel="noopener">&#8220;Trevor Project specific pride collection.&#8221;</a> Kohl&#8217;s also made a <a href="https://www.kohls.com/catalog.jsp?CN=Assortment:Pride&amp;cc=di-TN2.0-S-pride" target="_blank" rel="noopener">$100,000 donation</a> to the organization. Chipotle also supported the organization with a &#8220;<a href="https://chipotlegoods.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">pride line of merchandise</a>.&#8221; The company pledged a minimum of $15,000 to the Trevor Project.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The alert, which provides consumers with ways to reach out to the companies, specifically focused on the organization’s “TrevorSpace,” an online, anonymous chat platform for children as young as 13. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The website does not utilize age verification and </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">“provides a way for groomers and predators to communicate directly with children without their parents’ knowledge or consent,” Consumers’ Research claims.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Screenshots </span><a href="https://nypost.com/2022/09/01/mom-discovers-depravity-in-trevor-projects-trans-chat-room/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">reported</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> by the New York Post and included in the alert show discussions of pornography, masturbation, and fetishes on the site. The Post </span><a href="https://nypost.com/2022/09/01/mom-discovers-depravity-in-trevor-projects-trans-chat-room/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">described</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> the website as a “‘Pandora’s box’ of </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">sexually perverse content, aggressive gender-reassignment referrals, adults encouraging minors to hide their transitions from their parents and many troubled kids in need of psychological counseling.” </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Trevor Project was </span><a href="https://decider.com/2022/06/24/trevor-1994-short-film-watch-online/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">named after</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> a </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1geRc8LaZfs" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">short film</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> produced by the organization’s founders called “Trevor,” which centers around a gay teen who attempts suicide. </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">The organization states that its mission is “</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">to end suicide among LGBTQ young people.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">However, January Littlejohn, a parent advocate with </span><a href="https://donoharmmedicine.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Do No Harm</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, argues, &#8220;The Trevor Project has strayed far from their noble beginning as an organization dedicated to preventing suicide amongst vulnerable youth” and is “no longer a safe place for children or teens.&#8221; </span></p>
<p><b data-stringify-type="bold"><a class="c-link c-link--focus-visible" href="https://onelink.to/dwapp" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-stringify-link="https://onelink.to/dwapp" data-sk="tooltip_parent" aria-describedby="sk-tooltip-72635">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILY WIRE APP</a></b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Companies donating to this organization need to understand what they are actually supporting, which is the teaching of radical gender ideology, the false notion that a child can be born into the wrong body, onto impressionable children,” Littlejohn added. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“The Trevor Project fosters a predatory and unsafe environment for minors. The fact that they have features in place that encourage children to hide their search and chatroom activity from their parents is deeply alarming,” Consumers’ Research Executive Director Will Hild alleged. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">He added, “Companies like Disney, General Motors, and Bank of America should not be funding online chatrooms where predatory adults have unfettered access to groom vulnerable children.”</span></p>
<p>None of the six corporations, nor the Trevor Project, responded to a request for comment.</p>

<p>Wallace has been disliked by many NASCAR fans for a long time for a variety of reasons, including <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/their-job-is-to-always-deliver-hate-bubba-wallace-slams-fans-as-he-brushes-aside-assertions-noose-incident-was-a-hoax" target="_blank" rel="noopener">suggesting</a> that they are &#8220;simple-minded&#8221; people whose &#8220;job is to always deliver hate.&#8221;</p>
<p>During a race last October, Wallace slammed into Larson on the track, causing him to crash, and then physically attacked him.</p>
<p>The incident happened during Stage 2 of the South Point 400 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway when Wallace, who won Stage 1, was next to Larson when Larson attempted a three-wide pass.</p>
<p>Larson moved up the track and his car gave a slight tap to Wallace’s car, causing Wallace’s car to brush up against the wall. After brushing up against the wall, Wallace bounced into Larson’s car and then continued by following Larson’s car down the track and slamming into the rear of his car, causing both cars to spin out.</p>

<p>Wallace was later <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-nascar-suspends-bubba-wallace-for-crashing-into-driver-and-then-attacking-him" target="_blank" rel="noopener">suspended</a> by NASCAR for &#8220;intentionally wrecking or spinning another vehicle.&#8221;</p>
<p>After the crash, Wallace got out of his vehicle and attacked Larson.</p>
