74% Informative
The problem of sexual abuse in youth sports is more like a DNA marker than an acknowledged crisis.
The latest blip confirming long-proposed reforms held in a permanent holding pattern was the April sacking of Ju’Riese Colón , CEO of the U.S. Center for SafeSport .
The commission urged Congress to gut the 1978 Ted Stevens Olympic and Amateur Sports Act .
Sen. Richard Blumenthal is well-versed in grandstanding without follow-through.
He got elected to the Senate in 2010 over Linda McMahon , the erstwhile CEO of WWE , the pro wrestling company.
McMahon has refused to go away; under Trump 2.0 she is what passes for secretary of education.
