The United States is considering a boycott of the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, according to the U.S. State Department.
In the Biden administration’s most direct comments yet connecting human rights abuses in China to the upcoming Beijing Games, State Department spokesman Ned Price told reporters Tuesday that a boycott is “something that we certainly wish to discuss” in coordination with U.S. allies.

Agreed, the 'Considering' comment was just for public consumption. Biden won't do anything to upset his Chicom friends.
Biden is just negotiating for a larger kickback.
Boycott the Winter Olympics.
Hold a World Hockey Tournament in the United States.
Hockey is the only worthwhile winter sport.
Doing as bad as Jimmy Carter is the MOST optimistic outcome of this fake presidency.
Recall the USOC has said those same athletes can kneel or protest during the Anthem.
*** Hockey is the only worthwhile winter sport. ***
The nail biting action of curling is why I watch the Winter Olympics.
If MLB had not moved the All Star game there would be no talk of a boycott. This is Biden’s response to the blowback.
So the Bidet/Ho fake administration will boycott or if it isn’t we get to see woke olympians give Americans the finger. I care less about both because both are dead institutions.
Jimmy Carter 2.0
Hey! Already got my boycott tickets, wouldn’t miss it!
I think it will be a cold day in hell before the U.S. ever boycotts the Olympics again. The TV networks and corporate sponsors that own our government would never let it happen.
Ice hockey and the men’s downhill in alpine skiing are the two “can’t-miss” Winter Olympic events in my book.
Exactly.
Good point. Biden will talk about the importance of supporting China so they will eventually change and join the civilized nations of the world.
“Olympic and Paralympic Committee will allow raised fists and kneeling during national anthem at trials”
I’m fine with these SJW crybabies staying home. Dance with (and appreciate) the one who brung ya...or move to another country. Screw’em.
