On Friday, the fifth-seeded Gonzaga Bulldogs take on the top-ranked Purdue Boilermakers in the Sweet 16 round of the men’s NCAA basketball tournament in Detroit. It should be an epic showdown for a dominant pair of Midwestern teams, but Michigan State Rep. Matt Maddock apparently had issues more pressing than college sports in mind when he posted an alarming tweet on Wednesday night.
“Happening right now,” Maddock wrote. “Three busses [sic] just loaded up with illegal invaders at Detroit Metro. Anyone have any idea where they’re headed with their police escort?” Attached to the tweet were grainy photos of white buses at Detroit’s airport and a plane. He tagged Pete Hoekstra, a former representative for Michigan in Congress and Ambassador to the Netherlands under Donald Trump.
I think Gonzaga should change the name of their basketball team to ” The Gonzaga Busload of Illegals”.
But ref, he was travelin… you gotta call it!!
Hahaha!
Yet another example of right wing politicians pwning themselves!
My favorite of all time is Kellyanne Conman “the Bowling Green Massacre”
*”As yet, Maddock appears to have taken no notice of the thousands of replies mocking him for the false identification..”*
Oh, he’s noticed. He just has no defense to offer.
Gee maybe he should check Republican owned businesses in Texas? Governor Abbott deploys soldiers to shoot immigrants but never lifts a finger against the rich people creating the demand.
Live near Spokane and when Gonzaga Women were hosting Utah a few days ago they put them up in Idaho for some reason and (unsurprisingly) dudes in raised trucks with confederate flags showed up to shout racial slurs at them.
I’m glad(?) when we travel we encounter just as much racism?
Cons see everything as a conspiracy, ergo everything that exists is just more evidence of their conspiracies.
Think about how they’re talking about the Baltimore story. A big ship hitting a bridge and causing the bridge to break isn’t the whole story. Nope, its clearly evidence of the new world order doing a DEI psy-op to turn the frogs gay.
Swalwell FTW:
“Hey Einstein, your state is hosting the Sweet 16. Could it be a team bus? If it is, will you resign for your spectacular stupidity?”
Fucking gaslighter. If there is a God, he’ll make sure this God fearing Christian spends his eternity swimming in the river of shit that he created.
“But their calves! Size of cantaloupes!!”
100% performative nonsense.
The dude is quite literally acting like a crisis actor.
Just another grifting, unserious person.
All you have to do is watch desantis and pissbaby abbot long enough to see them ship “illegals” (disgusting way of describing people).
But I guess that’s ok because they’re republicans and governors. /s
When will those Gonzagaians learn they can’t defeat AMERICA!!!
I think he’s misunderstood! He’s just pointing out that traveling hardly ever gets called in basketball anymore. /s
Dude is calling everyone a “kommie” who tells him that it’s a basketball team. The dude is still doing that now even after being proved wrong.
Another dipshit MAGA Michigan Republican. The mitten is full of these jagoffs.
I keep being told by right wingers that Democrats are the real racists but it’s always Republicans doing shit like this.
How racist of him. Typical scared conservative.
Rep. Maddock would’ve made one hell of a witch hunter.
Another GOP Clown with the brain of a kindergartener….. where did these idiots come from? Will the Bible tell me?
This is on par with the racists harassing the NCAA players on Idaho, if not worse.
As an alumnus, he’d be welcomed in GU’s College Republicans. Those chucklefucks kicked out every non-trumper and really leaned into the Islamophobia my freshmen year.
Edit for proper English
These people are so scared and desperate- they are going to pop off as the propaganda machine cranks up for the election. Comet Pizza type conspiracy stuff- but this time a more focused and directed effort- stupidity has been weaponized, and will be employed AGAIN for violent aims.
I think liberal cities should round up all the racists, & bigots, & bus them to Florida & Texas.
GOP clown shit per usual. Can we start fining politicians for their lies? This would be a great use to get our tax dollars back into system instead of their pockets for doing absolutely nothing for the American people.
“GOP lawmaker exposed himself as racist”
Gongaga? LEAVE ZACK ALONE!!!!
I love how “illegals” is really just code for mostly not white. F’n racist trash.
“Whether he turns up at Little Caesars Arena tomorrow to confront the Gonzaga Bulldogs in person remains to be seen.”
Author throwing shade in the closing.
Wow. The stupid is so strong, it hurts.
“Kommie talking points” coming from the party in love with Putin… WTF. Don’t they see the irony and hypocrisy in everything dribbling out of their pie holes?
What a racist POS. Typical R trumpers
They have all been to schools for stupid. No one is born this way and survives.
Wait til Kimmell hears about this!!
If Gonzaga wins their next game, they move on to the round of teams eligible to get their green cards.

March Madness is certainly in full swing.
