Former competitive swimmer Riley Gaines has not rejected a multimillion-dollar partnership with Nike on account of the brand being “woke.” The claim shared online stems from a parody website. Regardless, the claim was taken seriously online with one Facebook user sharing the image with the caption, “Go WOKE...go Broke....” (here). The meme was first shared by the official America’s Last Line of Defense Facebook page (here). Gaines previously spoke out against Nike for its partnership with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney in April (here), (here). Swimmer Riley Gaines has not turned down a $3 million contract with Nike.

The claim that country music singer Jason Aldean sued the co-hosts of ABC’s “The View” for defamation originated from a satirical website. The Dunning Kruger Times describes itself as part of a network of “parody, satire and tomfoolery,” adding that “everything on this website is fiction” (ghostarchive.org/archive/Rybzc). There are no credible media reports of Aldean having filed such a suit in July 2023, when the claim began circulating online (ghostarchive.org/archive/KP5ah). A spokesperson for “The View” did not provide comment, while a representative for BBR Music Group, the agency that represents Aldean, did not respond to a request for comment. The claim stems from the satirical website Dunning Kruger Times.

There is no evidence that American singer Blake Shelton has pulled out of a multimillion-dollar project with Country Music Television (CMT). Reuters found no evidence that Shelton had a “$30-million-dollar project” with CMT, or that he has stepped away from one. No announcements about the purported partnership are featured on Shelton’s website (www.blakeshelton.com/news), or social media profiles (twitter.com/blakeshelton), (www.facebook.com/blakeshelton/). Representatives for CMT and for Shelton did not immediately respond to Reuters’ request for comment. The claim that Blake Shelton has canceled a multimillion contract with CMT is unfounded and originates from a satirical website.

And that, ironically, means Democrats must focus on fixing the Republican Party. And the current iteration of the Republican Party would strip away American democracy. Is it someone who is likely to make the Republican Party more or less responsible? Will that Republican Party abide by American laws and American democracy? Democracy will only survive if Democrats have done our part to create a responsible Republican Party.
