INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. — On the eve of the tip-off to the Final Four, the president of the United States is making a splash.

President Donald Trump issued his latest executive order to regulate college sports on Friday.

The 10-page order comes a day before the NCAA’s crown jewel — the men’s basketball tournament — reaches its pinnacle event here in central Indiana.

The order grants the NCAA the ability and suggests the organization limit athlete transfer movement, cap player eligibility, implement funding requirements for women and Olympic sports, and prohibit NIL collectives. As an enforcement lever, the order relies on the reduction of a university’s federal funding — an incentive for schools and conferences to abide by the concepts.

Because this will do nothing since the NCAA is a private organization. Again, gas and food prices, dipshit?

I know it's sports, but again, more bullshit from Orange Julius.

We are in a war, that he started, and he acts like he cares about anything and everything else BUT the damn war. Not how he thinks it's going but how its really going.

Secondly, where the hell is all the "Party of small government" they have been lying to the American people about? We are in a fascist state and the dictator is trying to dictate huge portions of our life already.

This has got to stop.
