There were no WNBA games on the schedule Monday (Jun.14), but WNBA Twitter was still buzzing thanks to the Skylar Diggins-Smith and Jazmine Jones. 

Things got real spicy on social media Monday evening between the players after Jones commented on a tweet sharing a video highlight of Diggns-Smith dicing up her teammate Didi Richards’ ankles. Jones wasn’t feeling Bleacher Report hyping up the impressive move by Diggins stating in her tweet, “Yeah but caught the L…. Hyping up the wrong stuff . How about hyping my girl Betnijah!!!!! Tf.”

Diggins-Smith clearly had time and responded, “Girl shut tf up! They can’t post a highlight? Complain to your organization, first, why they only hype one person!”

It didn’t end there. Jones chose violence and let Diggins-Smith know she chose the wrong one and wants all the smoke.   “Girl Shut tf up” is fighting words … so what’s really good,” Jones wrote in a tweet.

She punctuated her point by sharing the dagger three-pointer she made to seal the Liberty’s 85-83 victory over the Mercury Sunday (Jun.13).

The rest of the league grabbed their popcorn and sat back enjoyed the online spat between the two players. Liz Cambage, who already made headlines this season with her own on-court situations, wrote on Twitter, “when’s there beef going down but it ain’t mine for once.”

Former Chicago Sky player Sydney Colson wrote on Twitter, “The bottom line is: if you got your ankles snatched but your team got the W…you still got your ankles snatched.”

Even Diggins-Smith and Jones team’s social media accounts got in on the fun sticking up for the respective players while taking shots at each other.

Well, it’s a safe bet that both teams have August 25 circled on their calendars the next time both teams will meet on the court.

This week in politics, the vibes are messy, alarming, and straight-up confusing. From late night TV being snatched off the air to vaccine policies getting hijacked, it’s giving “WTF is going on?” Let’s break down the headlines everyone’s talking about inside. First Amendment on the Chopping Block Jimmy Kimmel’s late night show has been pulled from ABC, and Stephen Colbert’s show? Cancelled completely. The official line is murky, but the bigger picture is loud. Free speech is being tested under the Trump administration. While Trump once said he’d “honor” the First Amendment, recent moves suggest he’s working off a remix version that only benefits him. Case in point? The Guardian reports his $15 billion lawsuit against The New York Times. A judge already tossed it out, saying Trump’s claims about “false content” violated federal rules. Still, the fact that these lawsuits and cancellations keep happening has people questioning the future of free expression in America. CDC Shake-Up Sparks Health Concerns Meanwhile, over at the CDC, things are getting political fast. Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has basically turned the agency upside down, firing all 17 members of the vaccine advisory committee and replacing them with appointees that include vaccine skeptics. On top of that, the CDC director is out, high-level staffers are resigning, and decisions about vaccine safety are suddenly more about politics than science. Public health leaders are calling this move dangerous, saying it dismantles independent oversight just when Americans need clarity most. According to California’s government website, they are one of the few states pushing back on the federal government’s stance. California, Washington, and Hawaii aren’t taking it lying down. The states have formed an alliance pushing back on the feds, promising to keep vaccine guidance rooted in science, safety, and transparency. Their health officers are reviewing guidelines from trusted medical groups like the AAP and ACOG to ensure communities still have access to clinically recommended vaccines. Trump & Xi Meet About US TikTok’s Next Chapter And then there’s TikTok. After years of “will they, won’t they?” drama, Trump announced that he and Chinese Premier Xi Jinping approved a deal for TikTok’s U.S. operations. According to BBC, the plan reportedly hands control to a group of U.S. investors, sidestepping a shutdown. Trump called the call with Xi “productive” on Truth Social, and even, teased a face-to-face meetup at the APEC summit in South Korea this fall. From free speech battles to vaccine wars and TikTok drama, this week in politics has us all asking the same thing: WTFGO?
