Participants in the US Olympic teams are just that- members of a team. Those teams represent a country- in this case the United States of America. Teams are funded through various sources- a mix of corporate sponsorships, individual/philanthropic donations, event revenue, and grants. Financial services Stifel corporation is the primary sponsor of the US Ski teams. Note that they are called the US Ski teams, not the US Woke Ski Teams. The Freestyle team has chosen to dampen enthusiasm for itself is a series of self-aggrandizing interviews. History and tradition mean nothing to them. They are woke.
“It brings up mixed emotions to represent the U.S. right now… Just because I wear the flag doesn't mean I represent everything that's going on in the U.S.”
- Team USA Olympic Skier Hunter Hess
The anti-ICE, liberal athletes are already insufferable at the Olympics…

Another WOKE member of the United States Olympic team is bashing America on foreign grounds. This time figure skater Amber Glenn is crying about the LGBTQ community under Trump!

This is what America wants to see and needs to see. Gratitude. Patriotism.
In a world of woke Team USA members like Hunter Hess & Amber Glenn trashing America at the Olympics, be a Tamyra Mensah-Stock. “I love representing the U.S. I freakin’ love living there. I love it, and I’m so happy I get to represent USA!” pic.twitter.com/GMKMTXkGLq

And one of the greatest icons in US Olympic history, the hero of the 1980 Miracle Hockey team, Mike Eruzione, spoke out.

Olympic athletes are ahos. They are putting Illegal Alien invaders first. **** The U.S.A. imposters. They are not Americans.
IIRC, the Olympic flag will be handed to Newscum or Bass amid a lot of fanfare.
My family asked if I wanted to watch the opening ceremony.
Answer: No.
I don’t think I’ll be watching any of the Olympics this time around.
Used to like the figure skating. Now this:
“Woke Team USA Figure Skater Amber Glenn Whines About LGBTQ Issues to Reporters”
To go through all that trouble to make the team then trash the US , very sick people
They are supported by the country they say they don’t like. Simple solution: Don’t support them any more. I don’t care how good they are, kick them off the team. No one agrees with everything in the US, but you don’t go to an international event and bad-mouth the country that feeds you. If I were the coach, I’d send them home. You’re not there to stand on a stage and criticize your country. You happily took our money and this is the reward? Ungrateful, spoiled brats...go home.
They are self-obsessed at presenting an impression of public virtue.
There are some great kids on the team, particularly in ice dancing.
Actually the saddest thing is that the two male skiers and Amber Glenn are just a tiny fraction of the athletes. The shame is that all the athletes competing are not dissing America and are proudly waving our flag and feel honored to be representing our country. They have worked hard for it.
Painting all these people with a broad brush for the actions of a few is disgusting.
A beautiful married couple performed a fabulous Ice Dance routine yesterday as their parents watched. Some other members of the figure skating team was there waving large flags and supporting these 4x world champions skating for America. I believe the Vance family was also watching.
It was a nice moment.
I can almost understand the “Black Power” protest at the 1968 Games, but what how the hell are gay people “oppressed” in this country today.
Trump is probably the most pro-gay Republican you’re going to get.
Jesse Owens
Jackie Robinson
Hank Aaron. They had plenty to be angry about. I bet they were proud of representing their families, cities, States and the United States.
Woke folk can kiss my aice.
Where are their coaches on this? Their parents?
People I know - family, friends, people who are the same age as the guys who played in the Miracle- they sympathize. Their kids have come home from college with woke ideas having spread their brainwashing to their weak parents
People don’t know their own religions. They do not know their country’s foundation. They don’t know the first thing about disciplining their kids. Or themselves
I shut it all off last night and watched Kurt Russell coach the boys
Homosexual men on ice still stink.
Participants in the US Olympic teams are just that- members of a team.
In any case, and not directly related, isn't it about time we put an end to the wasteful and corrupt farce that is the Olympics?
There should be separation of sports and state.
That was an amazing performance.
I’m not throwing the entire team overboard just because a couple of them are idiots.
I agree with you. Amber Glenn is a lesbo activist. She doesn’t represent the team at all. She doesn’t even show up to support fellow team mates when they perform. She can’t back up what she says because nobody in this admin is doing anything to make life hard for gays and lesbos. I will say that she is the least comely of the whole skating team. Even the males are better looking than her.
Remember, it isn’t about being LGBTQ whatever, it is always about the revolution.
We should drop the “woke” word and call them what they are. communists, tyrants.
Even the gays in the past Olympics didn’t diss the country.
I am not sure if the male skiers are or aren’t though. Probably just democrats because they want to be liked by the hollywood crowd.
Those two are perfection. Such a beautiful married couple. You saw who all was behind them waving our flag the whole time.
It wasn’t Amber Glenn, of course. No fixing that one.
I will hope whoever competes against Glenn wins. She doesn’t deserve it.
These people don’t care about corporate sponsorships. Meghan Rapinoe’s anti Americanism has made her toxic waste.
