We've been told President Donald Trump is responsible for Joe Biden's high inflation, Joe Biden's open borders damages, Joe Biden's failure to intervene and resolve international disputes, Joe Biden's energy disasters, and much more.
Now a far-left activist has announced that the FBI's investigation into alleged gambling crimes involving NBA personalities, dozens of whom have been arrested, is because of Trump.
The Daily Mail commented that the stunt by Stephen A. Smith in accusing Trump has "sparked fury."
Former University of Colorado player, now Trail Blazers coach Chauncey Billups, and Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier were among those arrested.
"Rozier is accused of participating in an illegal sports betting scheme using private insider NBA information. Billups is charged in a separate indictment alleging a wide-ranging scheme to rig underground poker games that were backed by Mafia families," the report said.
Smith took to a broadcast outlet to complain, and accused Trump, charging the situation "was fueled by Trump and his thirst for revenge," the report said.
"You know what world that I live in, in terms of politics. How many times, with one incident after another, have I said 'Trump is coming. He's coming.' I'm going to say it on national television again," he said.
"Don't be surprised if the WNBA is next on his list. When you've got all these protests going on out there, protesting against him … this man is coming, he's coming. I've been saying it for a long time. For me, this is the latest nugget of evidence that we're talking about right here. That's not to question the legitimacy of the case, we don't know. But anybody that has been around him, anybody that has talked to him and seen his reactions, from the sports leagues … they are not surprised at what's going on today.
'I'm watching a press conference with the Director of the FBI, tell me when we've seen that? We've seen accusations before, we've seen athletes get in trouble with the law before, you don't see the Director of the FBI having a press conference. It's not coincidental, it's not an accident, it's a statement … and it's a warning that more is coming.
"That's what they're saying here. I'm just telling you. It's as serious as it gets. This isn't the platform for me to get into it, the way I'm going to get into it. But I've been saying, he's coming… he's coming. In his eyes, folks tried to throw him in jail. In his eyes, he's innocent and 'they tried to put me behind bars. I'm getting everybody.' He's not playing. And so this, in a lot of people's eyes… talk to people in the NBA, talk to people in the NFL, talk to people in the world of sports. They think this is just the tip of the iceberg.
"These are the kind of words that are coming out of people's mouths. It's not a surprise. It's very disheartening, it's very concerning, we don't know where this is going to go… but this is just the tip of the iceberg. Everybody better brace themselves, because he's coming."
But oops.
The report explained that Trump supporters simply noted the fact, that the investigation was under way long before Trump returned to the White House this year. Years before.
Among the responses: "TDS is a real thing."
And, "You'd have to live under a rock or be dumb as dirt to believe what he just said."
And, "Rather than talk about the problem (illegal gambling) we are going to blame trump for everything?"
Jessica Tisch, New York police commissioner, explained one of the accusations involves Rozier allegedly telling people he was going to leave a game early with an "injury."
That allowed people to place wagers that raked in thousands of dollars, Tisch charged.
Rozier and Billups were placed on leave.
The report said, "The case was brought by the U.S. attorney´s office in Brooklyn that previously prosecuted ex-NBA player Jontay Porter. The former Toronto Raptors center pleaded guilty to charges that he withdrew early from games, claiming illness or injury, so that those in the know could win big by betting on him to underperform expectations."
