In early 2022, the NFL's Washington Redskins changed their name to the Commanders. Along with the name change also came a new logo.
Many fans of the team were not happy about this change. But the woke mob won the day, at the time.
But it's almost 2025. Donald Trump just won the election. The woke mob seems to have far less power than it did in 2022.
So why not bring back the Redskins' old logo?
That's exactly what Republican Senator Steve Daines plans to do.
In an interview with Fox News on Wednesday, Sen. Daines said that he decided to support a bill that would allow the Washington Commanders to use RFK Stadium as their site for a new building.
But there was a catch.
Daines said he would support this bill after "good faith negotiations" that the Commanders and the NFL would bring back the old Redskins logo, the "Blackfeet chief logo" that was so associated with the team for so long.
Daines said, "We were calling out leaders in case of really, woke gone wrong. The irony that they were canceling Native American culture as the DEI movement went way too far."
As a senator from Montana, Daines explained how the logo honored an icon of his state.
"This is honoring a Blackfeet chief who was born in Montana. He is highly esteemed. The Blackfeet tribe of Montana, their current chairman and tribal council signed a letter in strong support to bring the logo back."
"It honors Indian Country," he added.
So the actual Native Americans even want the logo back. Sorry woke people. Probably woke white people, who are often the culprits in this politically correct madness.
So ridiculous.
Daines is hopeful the logo will return, telling Fox News, "We have good discussions with the NFL and with the Commanders. There’s good faith in negotiations going forward that’s going to allow this logo to be used again. Perhaps revenues going to a foundation that could help Native Americans in sports and so forth. We’re making good progress and, based on the good faith negotiations, I made a decision to support this bill yesterday in the committee."
According to Fox News, "Blackie Wetzel was credited with creating the portrait of John Two Guns White Calf in 1971, which the Washington Redskins used in 1972."
"The descendants of Two Guns White Calf also called for the image to be back in the NFL," the report noted.
So, again, the Native American family most closely associated with the Redskins logo wants it back precisely to honor their family and their people.
You know fans would want it back.
Enough said.
To hell with the woke mob. They are irrelevant.
Will Donald Trump's second term be the end of woke? We can only hope.
Bringing back the Redskins old logo could certainly be a symbol of that.
