Super Bowl Champion Shreds Biden During Commencement Address for 'His Support for the Murder of Innocent Babies'

Share

NFL kicker Harrison Butker, a champion on and off the field, shredded President Joe Biden and touched on the country’s cultural decline during a commencement address Saturday at a Catholic university in Kansas.

The Kansas City Chiefs star ridiculed Biden for claiming to uphold Catholic values while championing abortion.

Butker also took a shot at LGBT “pride” and transgenderism while addressing students at Benedictine College in the city of Atchison, about 50 miles northwest of Kansas City.

Just three months after helping his team win a second consecutive Super Bowl, the 28-year-old kicker championed traditional values in a speech to students who are about to head out into a world that looks much different than it did just a few years ago.

“As a group, you witnessed firsthand how bad leaders who don’t stay in their lane can have a negative impact on society,” Butker told the young people whose high school careers were upended by the COVID-19 pandemic.

“While COVID might have played a large role throughout your formative years, it is not unique,” he said.

The husband and father continued, “Bad policies and poor leadership have negatively impacted major life issues. Things like abortion, IVF, surrogacy, euthanasia, as well as a growing support for degenerate cultural values and media — all stem from the pervasiveness of disorder.”

Butker then took a shot at Biden, who disgustingly gestured the cross last month at a pro-abortion rally in Florida.

“Our own nation is led by a man who publicly and proudly proclaims his Catholic faith but at the same time is delusional enough to make the sign of the cross during a pro-abortion rally,” the Georgia Tech alum said.

Continuing his takedown of Biden, the kicker added, “He has been so vocal in his support for the murder of innocent babies that I’m sure to many people it appears that you can be both Catholic and pro-choice.”

He went on to include other Catholics who support the cancers that are contributing to the country’s cultural decline — including those who claim people can change from female to male and male to female.

“From the man behind the COVID lockdowns to the people pushing dangerous gender ideologies onto the youth of America, they all have a glaring thing in common — they are Catholic,” Butker said. “This is an important reminder that being Catholic alone doesn’t cut it.

“These are the sorts of things we’re told in polite society to not bring up.”

Butker then encouraged his audience of college graduates to go out and change the world rather than become of it.

“We need to stop pretending that ‘the church of nice’ is a winning proposition,” he said. “We must always speak and act in charity but never mistake charity for cowardice.”

Butker wasn’t finished there.

He also shredded the LGBT “pride” movement, which will fire up its messaging machine in the coming weeks to push its agenda on the country throughout the month of June.

The NFL star praised Benedictine College for embracing the teachings of Scripture and not sitting idly by and blending in.

He said the students should take “pride” in their institution.

Are you a fan of Harrison Butker?

“Not the deadly sins sort of pride that has an entire month dedicated to it, but the true, God-centered pride that is cooperating with the holy ghost to glorify him,” Butker said.

“In the complete surrender of self and a turning towards Christ, you will find happiness,” he said.

Butker is known for his precise kicks on the field, but for the second year in a row, he threaded the needle when addressing the country’s youth during a commencement address.

Last year, he addressed students at his alma mater at Georgia Tech and reminded graduates that worldly success — including his own — is “temporary.”

He concluded that people entering out into the world should be brave and “get married and start a family.”



It’s difficult to believe, given his wisdom and leadership, that Butker won’t turn 30 until next summer.

The three-time Super Bowl champion continues to display the kind of wisdom you would expect of a man twice his age, and he understands the issues facing Christians and Americans.

Students and anyone else tuning in are blessed he continues to use his voice to share that wisdom during a time when the truth is so often considered taboo.


A Note from Our Deputy Managing Editor:

 

I heard a chilling comment the other day: “We don’t even know if an election will be held in 2024.” 

 

That wasn’t said by a conspiracy theorist or a doomsday prophet. No, former U.S. national security advisor Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn said that to the founder of The Western Journal, Floyd Brown.

 

Gen. Flynn’s warning means that the 2024 election is the most important election for every single living American. If we lose this one to the wealthy elites who hate us, hate God, and hate what America stands for, we can only assume that 248 years of American history and the values we hold dear to our hearts may soon vanish.

 

The end game is here, and as Benjamin Franklin said, “We must all hang together, or assuredly we shall all hang separately.”

 

All of this means that without you, it’s over. We have the platform, the journalists, and the experience to fight back hard, but Big Tech is strangling us through advertising blacklists, shadow bans, and algorithms. Did you know that we’ve been blacklisted by 90% of advertisers? Without direct support from you, our readers, we can’t continue the fight.

 

Can we count on your support? It may not seem like much, but a Western Journal Membership can make all the difference in the world because when you support us directly, you cut Big Tech out of the picture. They lose control. 

 

A monthly Western Journal Membership costs less than one coffee and breakfast sandwich each month, and it gets you access to ALL of our content — news, commentary, and premium articles. You’ll experience a radically reduced number of ads, and most importantly you will be vitally supporting the fight for America’s soul in 2024.

 

We are literally counting on you because without our members, The Western Journal would cease to exist. Will you join us in the fight? 

 

Sincerely,

Josh Manning

Deputy Managing Editor
