Sometimes the jokes write themselves.

Controversial conservative mouthpiece and Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker is being mocked online after missing several field goals by kicking "wide right."

Including this attempt during a recent game against the New York Giants.

Aside from his on field exploits, Butker is best known for his far-right stances on things like the role of women in society.

Butker has endorsed the "stay-at-home wife and mother" as the only acceptable "Christian" role for women, speaking often of how fulfilling it is for his wife to lean into her true "vocation": taking care of him and their children.

Butker infamously told graduating women during a commencement speech he gave at Benedictine College:

"I think it is you, the women, who have had the most diabolical lies told to you. Some of you may go on to lead successful careers in the world but I would venture to guess that the majority of you are most excited about your marriage and the children you will bring into this world."

Butker has also bashed former Democratic President Joe Biden, endorsed MAGA Republican President Donald Trump, spoken out about LGBTQ+ equality, and been involved in a scandal over funds donated to a Christian PAC Butker promoted.

NFL Network play-by-play announcer Rich Eisen made note of the coincidence between Butker's right veering views and his kicks going the same way this season during the Chiefs' season opening game against the Los Angeles Chargers in São Paulo, Brazil.

During one such miss, Eisen quipped:

"Harrison Butker, interestingly enough, is wide right."

From there...

The Chiefs are currently sitting at 1-2-0 on the 2025-2026 season. It's unclear if Trump will threaten the NFL, as he has television networks and streaming services, if the team decides to drop or trade Butker.

Trump has already demanded the Washington Commanders change back to a racial slur as their team name and readopt their racist mascot if they want a new football stadium.

Ben Shapiro Gets Epically Trolled With His Own Past Tweet After Raging About Supreme Court's Ruling On Birthright Citizenship

One of far-right podcaster Ben Shapiro's old tweets came back to haunt him after he complained that the Supreme Court had committed a "legal abomination" by upholding the constitutional right to birthright citizenship.

Birthright citizenship is a legal concept that grants citizenship automatically at birth. It exists in two forms: ancestry-based citizenship and birthplace-based citizenship. The latter, known as jus soli, a Latin term meaning "right of the soil," grants citizenship based on the location of birth.

Former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley was called out for her own hypocrisy after she complained about New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani urging residents to conserve energy amid a heat wave, only for people to point out that she asked people to do the same when she was in office.

Mamdani—whom the New York Post recently accused of "violating dress code rules" when he jumped into a public pool without removing his suit and tie—has kept New Yorkers in the loop as much of the United States experiences an intense heat wave to rival the ongoing one in Europe.
