Joke tweet from Brian but it actually upsets me that you can blatantly do corruption in 2025 but the Army football players can’t accept NIL deals because they’re technically government employees and can’t use their public office for personal gain

They've actually signed a contract that specifically says that they can't have outside employment while at West Point. Or at least that's how it was 20 years ago.

That’s a complete joke given the orange felon who does everything, everyday to enrich himself while golfing in our government.

It would make so much more sense to put Army football players in the USAA commercials than Gronk trying to falsify military membership to get insurance

Especially since "Gronk wants USAA insurance" has a solution- get married to someone who is a member.

💯 Gronk's USAA commercials are cringe. In planning, it couldn't even find a veteran? You're right, though -- allowing Army ballers to earn NIL money *would* make the most sense.

Good chance this is the only context in which the rules against using public office for personal gain are actually enforced.

I swear if you could get Laura Loomer to tell him the people want Army to have a Pentagon slush fund for NIL, he’d order Hegseth to do it.
