You're listening to Fox Sports Radio. So a big night on television depending on what you might have been focused on in your house about evenly split between people who were watching the NBA all star game.

And the Megan Markle interview when I pulled people on social media last night I watched both we have talked a lot about the impact of the three point shot.

I think it's hard not to when you see Damien Lillard draining a shot from half court to basically in the game with LeBron's team winning by 2170 to 150.

By the way, the over hit. It feels like every year in the NBA all star game. It's hard to take the under and then also LeBron's team covered with ease.

But you just started talking with if you're just waking up, you missed it. You need to go down the down the podcast and make sure you don't miss a single bit of it.

If you're just starting off with us, we had the senator from Tennessee, one of the Marsha Blackburn on talking about the letter that she is sent to Adam silver and the NBA discussing their relationship with China.

And I'm going to unpack that a little bit. But I want to start here because I said at the end of the of the last segment that I was going to talk about this.

But to me, and I don't know, maybe I'm unique in this, maybe a lot of you out there don't have the same thought. The NBA has so taken me out of thinking about the game itself after their hyper political turns of late.

That when I see a story about China now covering the NBA all star game and distributing it for its people, I can't help but think about the overwhelming hypocrisy of the NBA as it pertains to saying nothing about genocide and slave labor that's going on in China where they're pocketing billions of dollars.

And also it's not just the NBA, I'm not trying to just exclusively focus on the NBA, but some people say well you got an iPhone right and you don't yeah, but Apple all day long doesn't lecture me on politics like the NBA does.

I also wish that Apple made their entire phone here and I wish that every major multinational corporation would make their products outside of China because I think we're fake is focusing on a new cold war with China.

And I think that country is hell bent on destroying America and our way of life. I really do. And I think a lot of people have not caught up with that yet, but I believe that's what's going on in the world right now.

The biggest story that few are discussing is the battle between the United States and China for 21st century global supremacy. And if you wonder why that matters, it's because the United States despite the fact that many people want to rip our country to the high heavens, including some of our wealthiest athletes.

The United States is the freest country that has ever existed in the history of the world and no country has done more to keep the world free than the United States.

China wants to create a new model that they dominate in the 21st century, which is communist influenced authoritarian totalitarian governments that restrict their people's ability to find the truth.

And they use our institutions, our basketball league, our social media, Facebook and Twitter don't exist in China.

You can't get on Facebook or Twitter in China because China doesn't want that dissension in their country.

They are, I believe, using American pop culture in particular basketball to divide us in this country and weaken us while raising China's global profile.

And they're exploiting our star athletes like LeBron James by effectively letting him know, hey, if you speak out of turn against China, remember LeBron James ripped the first amendment after Darryl Moray said that he supported democracy in Hong Kong.

One of the dumbest things LeBron's ever said questioning the value of the first amendment in America, doing the bidding of his Chinese masters.

LeBron always says, oh, I'll never shut up in dribble, but he always shuts up in dribbles for China so he can get space jam too on in theaters in China.
