Jen Psaki defends Gwen Berry, Olympian who turned back on US flag
NY Post ^ | 06/28/2021 | Steve Nelson

White House press secretary Jen Psaki on Monday defended the “peaceful protest” of Olympic hammer thrower Gwen Berry, who on Saturday turned away from the US flag while the national anthem played and covered her head with her T-shirt that read, “Activist Athlete.”

Berry said she was “pissed” to hear “The Star-Spangled Banner” after winning a bronze medal at the US Olympic Track & Field Team Trials.

“I haven’t spoken to the president specifically about this, but I know he’s incredibly proud to be an American and has great respect for the anthem and all that it represents, especially for our men and women serving in uniform all around the world,” Psaki said at her daily press briefing.

The current administration has turned its back on the US; foreigners controlling America.

“Activist Athletes” are just useful idiots. Anti-American forces want to destroy sports that unite the country. They got Football and Baseball. Now they are coming for the Olympics.

The protesting individuals will get rewarded by companies like Nike, even as they kill the sport for other ahtletes.

Yeah, that's why he and his family are sellouts to the CCP.

Of course she did because she hates America too.

Of course, besides 0bozo and his loathing of America, this regime hates anything patriotic and despises American patriots.

‘Jen Psaki on Monday defended the “peaceful protest”’

Yep, she only pi$$ed on the grave of every single American hero who has made the ultimate sacrifice for this country.

Olympic hammer thrower Gwen Berry

Too bad the hammer didn't take on the qualities of a boomerang.

Biden is proud of Americans that turn their back on America. It’s part of his “America Last” agenda.

If Berry qualifies for the Olympic team... will she still accept US taxpayer revenue for her trip etc. ??

Psaki has less brain than one of those babies born without one. There is nothing but inert slush between her ears. And, she is a whore. She’ll say anything, defend anything for money. Psaki provides the little comic relief to be had in an otherwise bleak situation of having a slavering demented thief masquerading as our president.

Carrot-mop sprouts more nonsense.

And we thought the Kenyan usurper’s White Hutt staff hated America...

I think that all of the woke, Anti-American athletes should be barred from representing this country at the Olympics. All of them. They don't deserve to represent this country.

I would rather see the USA win 0 metals than see any of these traitors win.
