First Rapinoe, then Cuomo and now this-—about a minute of peace found today! Thank you God!

Now if lightning could strike the capital building-——BLISS!

It is sad that although there are a handful of protestors among the Olympic athletes, they garner such disproportionate attention from the media.

Most are just hard working athletes who have excelled, and most love the country they represent. Most American athletes certainly do.

Hey, don't they have an aluminum medal for last place? And can play her nappy anthem backwards or something?

Screw these dirty rotten SOB’s! I’m way beyond the “I disagree with what you say, but will defend to my death your right to say it!” CRAP.
You OWE American loyalty. If you don’t have the common sense, decency, or stones to believe that; get your behind out of the USA.

Boy, does she NOT know her history!
That the British were inciting slaves and mercenaries to fight and burn with British troops (hence the reference to hirelings and slaves) - in return for promises of future English citizenship.

That some slaves did rise up in support of the British burning towns and farms along the Chesapeake Bay and Atlantic coastā€¦ā€¦.but many did not.

That one slave , Frederick Hall, whose Maryland plantation was burned by the British fled to Baltimore, too the name William Williams, and joined the militia there to fight for American freedom from English colonialism, that he was one of the 4 men who were killed at the Battle of Ft McHenry.

The womenā€™s soccer team and now this.

I havenā€™t watched a single Olympics event this time around, but I still canā€™t recall ever having cheered this much as a reaction to American defeats.

Weā€™ve come a long way from ā€œThe Miracle On Iceā€, havenā€™t we?

In today's world, I guess this is a success.

It’s called a distraction...and focus as you will...it disturbs your concentration.

As many of us predicted, nothing was really done to prevent the acting up of the wokeasters at the Olympics. Future Olympiads will only be worse.
