Travis Kelce finally broke his silence about Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker amid a backlash against his teammate over his commencement speech. During the Kelce brothers’ “New Heights” podcast on Friday, Travis defended Butker, calling him a “great person” and more amid attacks from the Left over Butker’s speech to the graduates at Benedictine College — when he praised his wife for being a “homemaker,” called out President Joe Biden’s support for abortion, and criticized LGBT “Pride month.” “I have known him for seven plus, eight plus years,” the Chief’s player said. “I cherish him as a teammate. I think Pat [Mahomes] said it best where he [Butker] is every bit of a great person and a great teammate. He’s treated friends and family that I’ve introduced to him with nothing but respect and kindness.” “That’s how he treats everyone,” he added. “When it comes down to his views and what he said at Saint Benedict’s commencement speech, those are his. I can’t say I agree with the majority of it or just about any of it outside of just him loving his family and his kids. And I don’t think that I should judge him by his views, especially his religious views, of how to go about life, that’s just not who I am.” “I grew up in a beautiful upbringing of different social classes, different religions, different races and ethnicities in Cleveland Heights. … It showed me a broad spectrum, just a broad view of a lot of different walks of life,” Kelce continued. “And I appreciated every single one of those people for different reasons, and I never once had to feel like I needed to judge them based off of their beliefs.” Kelce opened up about the home he grew up in, praising his mother and father for both being “homemakers and providers.” He said they were “unbelievable at being present every single day of my life. That was a beautiful upbringing for me.” CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP Jason added that it was “a commencement speech at a Catholic university, and, shocker, it ended up being a very religious and Catholic speech.” Travis’ comments were similar to what Chief’s head coach Andy Reid and KC QB Patrick Mahomes said during a press conference when the two answered questions about the off-field distractions surrounding Butker’s speech. “We’re a microcosm of life here,” Reid said. “Everybody is from different areas, different religions, different races. And so we all get along, we all respect each other’s opinions. And not necessarily do we go by those, but we respect everybody to have a voice. It’s the great thing about America, man. And we’re just … a microcosm of that. My wish is that everybody could follow that.” When Mahomes took the mic, he echoed a similar sentiment and said he’s known Butker for seven years, and he chooses to judge the placekicker by the character that he “shows every single day, and that’s a good person.”

If you're tired of censorship and dystopian threats against civil liberties, subscribe to Reclaim The Net. Congressman Thomas Massie has announced HR 8519, legislation aimed at ending the practice of spending taxpayer money to fund various censorship and “disinformation” research programs. A press release said that Elon Musk’s acquisition of Twitter, and the subsequent publishing of the Twitter Files – a batch of internal documents showing how the government and this social platform colluded in the previous period – played a pivotal role in opening the public’s eyes to the realities of the situation. We obtained a copy of the bill for you here. Ever since the 2016 elections and after those in 2020, speaking about what the Twitter Files revealed about online censorship, its methods, and levels, would have been discredited as “misinformation” or a “conspiracy theory.” And one of the things revealed is that the US federal government had informally enlisted not only tech companies but also universities to do this, many say, unlawful work. Unless it came as a result of pressure, like any work, it had to be paid for, and Massie now wants to make sure that kind of funding is banned going forward. In this effort, the Republican senator had the backing of only his party colleagues, with over a dozen of them originally co-sponsoring HR 8519. Since it is blatantly unconstitutional for the money to change hands in any direct way, the bill aims to stop “the workaround”: the government using taxpayer money to further its political goals via various “disinformation” research grants. Those would typically go to groups or networks made up of “select” universities and researchers. Moreover, HR 8519 seeks to prevent the government from bankrolling “specific programs within the National Science Foundation” which have been identified by the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government, which Massie is a member of. The Select Subcommittee has singled out these programs as “key to the federal government’s censorship efforts,” the senator announced. To Massie’s mind, there is no doubt that this activity is unconstitutional in that it violates the First Amendment – while Congress must see to ending it, using “the power of the purse.” The senator made note of the fact that what was in the past treated as “misinformation” etc., on Twitter was used to censor even his own posts on the official account, which he says were accurate. “If a Member of Congress’s account can be censored on the pretext of combating ‘misinformation’, ‘disinformation’, or ‘malinformation’, it can be done to anyone’s account,” Massie warned.
