Enter Stephen A. Smith, who isn’t one to bite his tongue. With President Donald Trump at the helm, he’s demanding answers—and a debate.
Stephen A. Smith is known for his no-filter comments on games and players. But this time, it has taken a step above. Because this time, it was the President of America and the case regarding Jackie Robinson and the Department of Defense.
He said, “Ask that question because of what happened with Jackie Robinson, who served in our military, drafted, served our country and for hours upon hours in a day, had this stuff was scrubbed, and we’re supposed to be, we were supposed to believe that’s accidental. We were born at night, Molly, some of us anyway, not last night.”
Stephen A. Smith questioned the Department of Defense’s claim that the removal of Jackie Robinson’s military service article was accidental. He expressed skepticism, implying it was a deliberate act amid the administration’s crackdown on DEI initiatives.

Whether this was an oversight or a deliberate move, the debate is far from over. Now, the ball is in their court—will they respond, or will the questions remain unanswered?
