Oakland Athletics pitcher Sean Doolittle and his girlfriend Eireann Dolan just gave a huge middle finger to a large majority of the republican governors in the United States as well as xenophobes everywhere.

Wednesday night, Doolittle and Eireann hosted 17 Syrian refugee families for an early Thanksgiving dinner at his home in Chicago.

Chiacgo Mayor Rahm Emanuel even showed up for the dinner that had to of been an event of a lifetime for the families especially when you consider where many of these refugees were at this time last year.

A gesture like this though is exactly why you can only scoff at a guy like Donald Trump, his ‘make America great again’ slogan and mindless bigoted rhetoric. What Dolittle and his girlfriend did this past Wednesday is exactly why America is still great.
