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.

Psaki needs to circle back on this one.
That man lived through the real Jim Crow days and yet proudly represented this country in Berlin in 1936--where some real White Supremecists were in charge.
If this young woman isn't proud to represent this country--then she shouldn't. It's time that USOC and the NCAA stop being so freakin' "woke."
I demand PROOF that she even passed 5th grade.
The Biden Admin are the FREAKS they defend
Just watch the amount of Ads from Woke companies Gwen Berry gets
Looks like Gwen Berry is vying for a Nike endorsement deal
Nothing new for modern Dems, Clinton's and Obama's administration was full of freaks as well.
Nike is China, not sure what the Chicoms think of these trans folks.
People like Berry will never leave the country they claim they hate, because for them, it’s all about the bitching, and being an attention whore than anything else.
Their supporters could wear yellow caps with big green letters.
Berry is a sore loser and envious racist. Look at the gold and silver medal winners to the right of her.

You have to be a special type of psycho to continually and knowlingly lie to people day after day.
P*ss on Gwen Berry. I will not be watching any of the Olympics.

Hey Joe, you and your worthless mookabooking Doctoro wife are horse shit pal.
