RNC speakers for 3rd night include 2 facing accusations

Two former NFL players scheduled to speak at Wednesday’s republican National Convention program are both facing accusations of wrongdoing, according to various news reports.

According to NPR, Jack Brewer was charged with a civil charge August 6th for insider trading for selling 100,000 shares of a penny stock for a company which he learned would be incurring a stock price hit.  A penny stock is a stock that sells for below $1.00 per share.

A frequent guest on Fox “News,” Brewer called Trump “the first Black president” when invited to the White House in February.  It is unclear if Brewer suffers from a TBI from his playing days and forgot Barack Obama was president.

Burgess Owens, a former NFL player who is running for a seat in Congress in Utah 4th District, has been accused of plagiarizing multiple passages of his book “Why I Stand: From Freedom to the Killing Fields of Socialism,” which has a cover featuring a photo of Owens kneeling in front of an American flag.

Also a frequent guest of Fox “News” as well as a QAnon conspiracy-based podcast, Owens allegedly lifted large portions of his book from Wikipedia, History.com and other sources, according to Business Insider.

Owen and Brewer are the only two Black people scheduled to present a segment on the third night of the republican show.

As demonstrated Tuesday night, the speaking schedule at the RNC is fungible until the last moment.  Last night, one of the speakers was scrubbed after she tweeted an anti-Semitic trope that came from QAnon.
