Democrat Jerri Green, who is running for Governor of Tennessee, thought she was being clever with an insult directed at GOP gubernatorial candidate Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN).
Clinging to the latest woke conspiracy (unfairness in the coverage, excitement, and attention paid to two gold-winning teams), Green tried to slam Blackburn for celebrating the USA’s Men’s Hockey victory but failing to celebrate the Women’s Team’s victory.
Green wrote on X, “Congratulations to the U.S. women’s hockey team on taking home gold!
“Sorry my Senator didn’t mention your accomplishment.”
“She only cares about women’s sports when she’s making divisive comments to gain political points.”

It didn’t take long for a Community Note to embarrass Green, who was predictably wrong.
The Community Note read, “FALSE CLAIM.”
“Senator March Blackburn Congratulated the USA Woman’s Hockey Team on Their Gold Medal Victory on 2/20.”
