This pandemic has been tough, but fortunately, I have people who frequently monitor my psychological and emotional well-being. (Hopefully you will too.)
So when asked how I am doing, I often reply: “Amongst rampant infections, economic collapse, and other challenges, there are many people who face much more difficult situations than I do. So I’m just trying to stay positive and grateful for my health and safety. “
One of those people I was apparently referring to is the owner of the New York Jets, Woody Johnson, who, when not concerned about sabotaging Sam Darnold’s career, in the moonlight as Trump’s ambassador to the UK.
Being equally egregious on both jobs, CNN reports The same guy who once thought signing Tim Tebow was a good idea was investigated by a state department watchdog for allegedly making racist and sexist comments to staff. He also allegedly followed Rule No. 47 in The Official Trump Administration Handbook and attempted to use his position as a government official to enhance the business interests of 45 in the UK.
Basically, this guy really isn’t shit.
From CNN:
In 2018, before an event for Black History Month, commonly marked at US embassies around the world, Johnson seemed agitated and asked if the audience would be “a whole group of black people,” according to a source. .
Three sources said Johnson questioned why the black community wanted a separate month to celebrate black history, and argued that black parents did not stay with their families and that this was the “real challenge.” A source said an official who heard the comments was “stunned” and that the incident was documented and disclosed to both OIG inspectors and a supervisor.

And as Johnson was sexist, she set out to organize official meetings at a men’s-only club in London called White’s (the irony is not lost on me) where female embassy diplomats were unable to attend. She also suggested that she preferred to work with women “because they were cheaper and worked harder than men,” she openly joked about how many attractive women were present or how embassy women dressed at a given event, and did not want to participate in the.
Oh, and there are these gems:
An embassy team tried to get Johnson to hold an event on gender-based violence in November 2017, the source said, to which the ambassador replied that he was not interested because “she is not a woman.”
Speaking at a reception a few days after a breast cancer research event held in collaboration with Estee Lauder in October 2017, Johnson opened her remarks by saying, “There was a prettier crowd here a few days ago with the ladies. dressed in pink and pink. ” people with breast cancer, “according to that source.
If I didn’t know better, I would swear that Trump was Johnson’s ventriloquist.
As expected, the White House declined to comment on this, so Johnson turned to Twitter to speak in his own defense.
“I have followed the rules and ethical requirements of my office at all times,” he tweeted. “These false claims of callous comments about race and gender are totally inconsistent with my long-standing history and values.”
However, he is not the only person who has been taken to Twitter. Upon learning of these allegations, the Security Jets Jamal Adams, who has been embroiled in his own war with the team. about a new contract, broadcast at 73 years of age.
“We need the RIGHT people at the top,” he tweeted. “Wrong is wrong!”
How this will play out is unknown, considering Johnson’s boss is the biggest racist / sexist on planet Earth, but if the NFL takes its racial calculation seriously, now would be the right time to prove it.
