Team DeSantis Trolls Bud Light With ‘Freedom Heavy’ Parody Ad That Stands Up For Female Athletes (VIDEO)
It’s nice to see a prominent politician taking a stand for women and girls against radical trans ideology.
Team DeSantis launched its “Freedom Heavy” collection by mocking Bud’s 1990s-era “Real Men of Genius” campaign.
The ad comes amidst backlash over Bud Light’s decision to partner with controversial transgender-identifying influencer Dylan Mulvaney, a performer, who has been playing the offensive caricature of a woman for the past year. For this role, Mulvaney has been showered with corporate sponsorships and given far too much attention than he deserves.
The DeSantis ad features male athletes who have won in female sports competitions. The ad shows a number of male athletes including NCAA title holders, Lia (Will) Thomas and CeCe (Craig) Telfer as the “Real Men In Women’s Sports.”
In Florida, girls play girls’ sports and boys play boys’ sports.

The Left will say, “Why do you care so much?”
Well, because males competing against females is unfair. The entire purpose of having a separate category is to give women an opportunity to compete fairly against their peers — other women.
What’s happening now is that (depending on the sport) men who say that they fervently wish to become women are now allowed to compete against women after just a few months of testosterone suppression. This fails to take into consideration the basic biological differences between men and women — physical size, lung capacity, bone density, etc. — that affect athletic performance.
One anonymous Twitter user posted a very lengthy thread on some of the mediocre male athletes that suddenly became champions once they begin competing in the female category.
Here's a thread on just some of the males who have gone on to win women's sports events – including how they performed in the men's category before they started identifying as women

That thread is why we care.
That’s why women’s athletics needs to be protected from gender-confused male interlopers who couldn’t compete against their peers.
John The Baptist: A Rude Awakening Precedes A Great Awakening.
This timely little tome chronicles the politically incorrect ministry of one of God’s most effective wildmen, John the Baptist, who prepared the way for Christ’s ministry.
The abrasive message of repentance John preached 2000 years ago is still confrontational and offensive today — but it is also life-changing.
In our putrid, worldly culture that has turned away from God, this book is a must-read for every Christian.
Available in paperback for those of you who like the feel of the pages in your hot, little hands, on Kindle to keep it right at your fingertips, and as an epic Audiobook.
