It’s Probably Not A Good Sign That This Is The Only Person Defending Conor McGregor

A very unlikely character has come to Conor McGregor’s defense, after the former lightweight champ found himself in a heap of trouble for bashing in the windows of a UFC bus.

His future with UFC isn’t clear; Dana White has expressed extreme disappointment in McGregor, and it doesn’t help that he was charged with three counts of misdemeanor assault and one count of criminal mischief on Friday morning.

It seems like most people are distancing themselves from McGregor, and for good reason. The guy has gotten death threats from the Irish mob, may or may not have rampantly cheated on the mother of his child, was just stripped of his UFC lightweight champion title, and is embroiled in a very public feud with rapper 50 Cent. It’s probably safe to say that Conor McGregor is a swirling black hole of drama.

But there’s one guy in the rap game who isn’t giving up on the Irish sensation.

Former domestic abuser Chris Brown is sticking with Conor McGregor through thick and thin.

“We all get crazy sometimes,” he told TMZ on Thursday night.

Yikes. Not exactly what you want to hear coming from a guy who beat his girlfriend so badly she was hospitalized and threw a chair through a window after an interview about said abuse went poorly.

If Chris Brown really wanted to rehabilitate his image, he’d condemn this incident immediately. He’d moral grandstand all over that TMZ reporter and tell him how appalled he was to see such a shocking demonstration of violence.

And if I’m Conor McGregor, I’m going on a very public rant/tweet storm/Instagram live broadcast about how violent Chris Brown is and how he would never dare going as far as the singer once did.

The world does not need a Chris Brown-Conor McGregor alliance right now. I don’t think we could handle it. The entertainment world is already teetering on the brink of destruction after Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan split. One more bombshell and fans might just melt into a puddle.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
