A Democratic congresswoman turned to soccer on Tuesday to support her claim that white supremacy is alive and well in modern culture.

Toward the end of a congressional hearing on the Smithsonian exhibit, Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) was in full defense of changes that have been made at the historic museum.

'Welcome to the Republicans' white-pride rally.'

The hearing, titled Rewriting American History: Examining the Smithsonian's Efforts to Reshape the Past, was a back-and-forth between Republicans and Democrats about whether the museum has become woke and even anti-white.

When it was her turn, Crockett used her limited time to ask David Blight, a history professor from Yale University, a bizarre question about the recent World Cup.

"The World Cup that captured the imaginations of the entire world when they saw all of these people of color that was [sic] playing for all these teams, and ultimately, if you recall, the last two teams, it was Argentina and Spain," Crockett began.

The congresswoman then asked the professor, "It seemed like the vast majority of the world was rooting ... against Argentina, right? And why was that? Just give me an explanation. If you could guess."

The professor was not in the same mindset as Crockett with his response, though, saying, "Spain had the best team. Maybe that's why they were rooting for them?"

Crockett took a moment for a hard chuckle before suggesting what the real reason might be.

"There's also a racist history that exists as it relates to Argentina," she said.

Crockett first introduced herself in the hearing by announcing, "Welcome to the Republicans' white-pride rally disguised as a congressional hearing."

This was followed by a series of rhetorical questions and comments surrounding the alleged threat of white supremacy in the United States. Crockett claimed that it must be hard for Republicans at the hearing to listen to the true history of America, while making other claims like black people are currently being denied their right to vote.

Republicans are trying to "ban books" and "attack museums," Crockett went on, before citing the Biden administration's 2021 claim that the biggest domestic threat to the United States is violent white supremacists.

Crockett also alleged that there were a lot of "white guys" with a "fetish" and "fragile egos" who are trying to feel "oppressed" over the alleged inner workings at the Smithsonian.

In another viral clip, Rep. Brandon Gill (R-Texas) questioned museum officials about training materials and tool kits that listed certain traits as products of white supremacy.

A White House document on the issue said that the National Museum of American History was using a framework that "explicitly treats museums as engines for anti-oppression activism."

For example, the document said the museum frames ideas like "objectivity, individualism, [and] a sense of urgency" as oppressive character traits of "whiteness" and "white supremacy culture."

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is now walking back its claim that Taco Bell lettuce supplier Taylor Farms was a source of the epidemic of explosive diarrhea that plagued customers, even apologizing to the company for making a “false positive.”

A statement from Taylor Farms reads, “Yesterday, FDA informed Taylor Fresh Foods that one of its iceberg lettuce products from central Mexico had a ‘confirmed positive’ test for cyclospora. Today, we were informed that [the] FDA made a mistake, and this was a false positive. To be clear, at this moment, FDA has not identified a single positive product test result for cyclospora.”

“Acting on initial information provided by health officials, in an abundance of caution, we completed a voluntary recall of iceberg lettuce from central Mexico. Recalled product was limited to iceberg lettuce grown and processed in central Mexico,” the statement continued.

The company reminded consumers that none of its other products had been involved in the recall, before issuing a message to those who are sick.

“Our thoughts remain with everyone who has fallen ill in this outbreak. We are committed to working with public health authorities as the ongoing outbreak investigation continues,” the statement concluded.

“It’s just such a warm statement from a corporation,” BlazeTV host Stu Burguiere comments on “Stu and Dave Do America.”

“Basically, they [the FDA] didn’t even have this information, they sunk, probably, the stock of Taylor Farms if they even have one,” he continues. "And Taco Bell and probably 10 other places, right?“

“Right,” co-host Dave Landau jokes, “which is why I bought it.”

The Christian conservative keyboardist of the band Journey has lashed out at Bruce Springsteen for constantly using his platform to push his liberal politics.

Springsteen has been annoying his fans by criticizing President Donald Trump and his supporters during his concerts, and keyboardist Jonathan Cain says he's fed up with it.

'I mean, who cares, guys? Do your art. I try to keep politics out of my music.'

"I’m a diehard conservative. ... And guys like Bruce Springsteen should shut up. You know, really, honestly, shut up, Bruce, you know?" said Cain in an interview on the "Complete Disaster Network" podcast from May that has gone viral on X this week, thanks to Variety.

He said he used to be a Democrat in his youth but has since turned to the right. He also tries to avoid injecting his politics into his music.

"Now, people say, ‘Well, you’re a Christian, and you’re conservative,’ and I’m like, ‘So what?’ I don’t preach it on stage. I don’t spend 10 minutes talking about it," he continued.

"And Bruce, I mean, what the heck? I used to like him, and now he’s just annoying," Cain said. "He’s an annoying, bitter old man. I mean, stop it. Really. You were born in the U.S.A., weren’t you, dude? So act like it. But even that song, if you look at the lyrics, I mean, it’s a kind of a diss to our country."

He also turned his ire against a liberal actor known for criticizing Trump.

"Him and ... who’s the other one? Robert De Niro," Cain added. "I mean, who cares, guys? Do your art. I try to keep politics out of my music."

Cain is married to Paula White, the controversial prosperity gospel evangelist who was appointed by Trump to his White House Faith Office.

Cain went on to recount how Journey is ridiculed by many in the mainstream but remains a fan favorite. Cain also recounted how Journey was one of the first bands to start touring after the coronavirus pandemic.

"Everybody told us we were going to fail, and we were crazy — we’re all going to die, you know?" Cain recalled. "And we said, ‘Nonsense, it’s time to go back out and celebrate rock ‘n’ roll again,’ and we were right, and we filled every arena we played."
