Famed author J.K. Rowling slammed biological male “cheat” Valentina Petrillo after he qualified to run against biological women in the Paralympic games in Paris.

Rowling’s viral post compared 51-year-old male Petrillo competing against women to that of famed cyclist Lance Armstrong who had to give back his medals after he was found to have been taking a drug that gave him an advantage in winning his races. On Monday, the biological male runner qualified for the Women’s 400m T12 semi-finals at the Paris Paralympic Games.

“Why all the anger about the inspirational Petrillo?” Rowling wrote sarcastically to her millions of followers. “The cheat community has never had this kind of visibility!”

Why all the anger about the inspirational Petrillo? The cheat community has never had this kind of visibility! Out and proud cheats like Petrillo prove the era of cheat-shaming is over. What a role model! I say we give Lance Armstrong his medals back and move on. #Cheats #NoShame pic.twitter.com/bvqhs3DexI

“Out and proud cheats like Petrillo prove the era of cheat-shaming is over,” she added, again sarcastically. “What a role model! I say we give Lance Armstrong his medals back and move on. #Cheats #NoShame.”

“The Harry Potter” author’s post included an image of the man dressed in female runner’s attire.

Olympic medalist Sharron Davies MBE also reacted to Petrillo being allowed to compete against females, noting how unfair it was. Her post  included more images of Petrillo on the track competing against females.

“So we ban Lance Armstrong for taking drugs which will give him a small but important advantage over his male rivals because it’s cheating but we let 51 year old male Valentina Petrillo have a huge advantage with no issue at all against female athletes!” Davies post read. “Why is this being allowed?”

REDUXX magazine posted that, “Valentina Petrillo, a father of two, previously won 11 national titles in the men’s category before beginning to identify as a ‘woman.'”

Others on social media said it wasn’t just that Petrillo was cheating because he was a biological male competing against women, but that he was not dealing with the same sight impairments like his female counterparts who were in the competition.

“Notice that the women around Petrillo are running with guides because of their sight impairments,” the person noted, along with video. “His [Petrillo] sight is good enough he doesn’t need a guide A cheating f**king man destroying women’s sports.”

While the Women’s Right’s Network called Petrillo’s inclusion “A RACE TO THE BOTTOM.”

The post noted that “Petrillo has previously won medals running in men’s events. Now that he’s 50 and out of shape, he uses his male physiological advantage against female runners.”

“A woman has already lost a deserved place at the Paralympics because of the ego and shamelessness of this man,” it added. “Now, women are likely to lose out on a chance in the final and podium spots, along with medals, not against a better female runner, but against a cheating man.”

The Philadelphia Eagles responded to fake posters that had surfaced in the city alleging that the NFL team had endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for president.

On Monday on X from the team’s official social media account, the Eagles’ team wrote that, “We are aware counterfeit political ads are being circulated and are working with our advertising partner to have them removed.”

The post has since gone viral with nearly 5 million views at the time of this publication.

The response online came after images of several posters in Philly surfaced showing Harris wearing an Eagle’s helmet, black jersey, and holding a football. The fake poster read, “Kamala. The official candidate of the Philadelphia Eagles,” CBS News reported. 

The fake posters were seen at bus shelters at 16th and Spring Garden streets, 18th Street and JFK Boulevard, and 34th and Walnut streets in Philadelphia, the outlet noted. 

The posters also included a URL philadelphiaeagles.com/vote printed underneath the caption. The website is still active at the time of this piece and gives outdated details about voting in the primaries.

A reporter for Fox 29 News posted on X that a spokesperson for the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA) said that “The bus shelters are owned by the city. So far, we have not heard anything about ads like this appearing on SEPTA property.” The reporter also posted a video now showing a blank space where one of the ads was previously seen.

However, another reporter noted that the posters were seen inside an enclosed case at a @SEPTA bus stop.

“Seen today at 34th and Walnut in Philadelphia, on the University of Pennsylvania campus,” the reporter noted.

“I can’t imagine this was authorized by @Eagles,” the person added. “However the fact that it is in an enclosed case at a @SEPTA bus stop raises all kinds of flags and eyebrows.”

Some on social media have compared the images to that of street artist Winston Tseng, but there’s been no confirmation, at the time of this publication, that the artist had anything to do with the Kamala posters.

Tseng previously created a poster about President Joe Biden’s presidency. It used a Ben and Jerry’s ice cream branding with the message, “Rocky Road to Democracy,” while showing Biden eating ice cream. He captioned the post, “put out to pasture.” It was also seen at a SEPTA stop in Philadelphia, CBS noted. 

The street artist also made a poster about former President Donald Trump’s presidency with Pepto Bismol branding. The message read, “Nausea, heartburn, insurrection, upset stomach, diarrhea,” with an image of Trump wearing a red MAGA [Make America Great Again] hat.
