Softball showdown more than a game to Wasserman Schultz, Klobuchar
The Hill ^ | 07/12/2023 | VERONICA ROSEBOROUGH AND CALEIGH KELLY

Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.) says she doesn’t let being a breast cancer survivor define her. But she is determined to use her platform to urge other young women to pay attention to their breast health.

That’s why, when she made her battle public in 2009, she crossed party lines to launch the Congressional Women’s Softball Game (CWSG) with then-Rep. Jo Ann Emerson (R-Mo.).

“We started the game in order to be able to raise awareness for our very young women … to pay attention to their breast health and know what’s normal for them so they know when something feels different,” Wasserman Schultz told The Hill. “And then, like me, you’ll be much more likely to survive.”

Unlike the congressional baseball game, where Republicans square off against Democrats, lawmakers play on the same softball team and battle the Washington, D.C., press corps.

Imagine how much they would raise if every player donated 5% of the campaign money they raise. $571,000 is a joke.

“I can smell the gin and regret from here“

Add in a few stinky trannies, and you’ve got a game!
