“I just want to say, I have never been against Lia Thomas, she actually played within the rules.” Jenner said, before asking, “Was it fair? No, it wasn’t fair. It’s not a fair fight”
Jenner also quoted a viral tweet from her account, which she repeated on Hannity.“
“At least I had the balls to stand up for women and girls in sports,” she said. “But we need to do that. We need to stand up for women’s sports. We’ve got to keep it fair.”
