GOP Lawmaker Mistakenly Identifies Gonzaga Basketball Team as 'Illegal Invaders'
Originally Published 1 year ago — by Rolling Stone
Michigan State Rep. Matt Maddock mistakenly identified the Gonzaga basketball team as "illegal invaders" being transported in buses, fueling unfounded claims about the Biden administration secretly flying migrants into the country. Despite evidence to the contrary, Maddock continued to push his false narrative, even dismissing the likelihood that the buses were for the NCAA athletes. His tweet was widely ridiculed, but he has shown no signs of backing down.
