Earlier this month several women from the US soccer team turned away from the US flag as 98-year-old WWII veteran Pete DuPré played the national anthem on a harmonica.
The US women’s soccer team was playing an exhibition game against Mexico in East Hartford, Connecticut in a pre-Olympic sendoff game before heading to Japan.
The video is included for all to see.

On Wednesday Sweden stunned the US Womens Soccer Team with a 3-0 victory in the women’s soccer tournament. They’re out.
The US women’s team was just bounced from the Olympics. Via The AP:
The Americans, ranked No. 1 in the world and the favorites to win gold in Tokyo, were riding a 44-match unbeaten streak heading into the match. But Sweden, ranked No. 5, has been the U.S. team’s nemesis of sorts in recent years. The Swedes bounced the Americans from the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Games in the quarterfinals, the earliest U.S. Olympic exit ever, by making a defensive stand.
This April, Sweden played the United States to a 1-1 draw in Stockholm, which snapped a winning streak dating back to January 2019 when the Americans lost to France in the run-up to the World Cup. It was the U.S. team’s only draw this year.

Good.
Continuous humiliation and absolute ruin is exactly what these nasty creatures deserve.
The bad news about losing early is they may come back sooner.
Yay!! I hope they lose every damn game.
At once point they say it’s a exhibition match but later they say the loss bounced them from the Olympics. Maybe “exhibition” means something different when it comes to Olympic soccer.
HAHAHAHA !!!!! Awesome !!!!
What do they mean they’re out?
How can they be out from one game?
The obviously need more Trannies on the Team.
They were “bounced” from the Olympics. “come back” ain’t happenin.
I no longer trust GP.
Sometimes they just fan flames, and other times they’re just inaccurate or stupidly written.
Stop calling it the “US Women’s” team. They don’t represent the US and many probably aren’t even women.
My quick summary:
Under federal law, there are required sanctions to be imposed on Russia ref Nord Steam 2. Those are not in place and the State Dept is dragging their feet.
Sen Cruz is applying pressure on the State Department to impose those legally required sanctions by not confirming appointments until those sanctions are in place.
Shame on the Biden admin for not following US law. Kudos to Sen Cruz for forcing their hand.
They sure took a licking
I believe hey need to win the next two to advance - a tie will seal their fate
Good news indeed.
Explain please.
Um, you could always do an internet search on a big story like this. Its all over the internet. Plus they quoted the story from AP.
The US women’s soccer team did get clobbered by Sweden 3-0.
That is fact.
How so?
