We have Kayaks in Rio hitting discarded couches in the water....

Everyone knows Brazil is a JOKE...

We have an Olympian get robbed and he gets treated like a criminal by the Brazilian government...

Everyone ALREADY knows Brazil is a JOKE...

You can’t close the barn door AFTER the animals escape Brazil!

Haven’t they already done that? Or does do they mean the swimmers may leave when they change their testimony to agree with the crooked Brazilian Judges abridged version of events?

And after they get home (assuming they get home quickly),they likely won’t be able to describe their experiences until after the rest of the Americans get home after the Olympics are over —lest they endanger others.

So we won’t hear their full story until then.

We shouldn’t fork over the $400 million until our swimmers are on a plane headed back for the US, darn it!

The only way you could associate Hillary with Free Trade is if it was a trade for Hillary in exchange for nothing.

The Olympics have turned into a cesspool of political correctness, global warming, and anti-Americanism. Its time is over.

Apparently Brazil doesn’t honor our 4th and 5th amendment.

It was a mistake to allow them to host the Olympics. They should never be allowed to have any international event there again.

Brazil, especially Rio, has proven to be such a lawless, disease-and-crime-ridden cesspool, it’s really a chutzpah to demand any legal procedures from the U.S. team. Is Brazil just trying to get something over on the U.S.?

I could certainly agree with that. In the meantime, however, the best revenge, is winning 39 more medals than their nearest competitor, while the host nation cess pool only has 12.

What’s going on here? Some rogue judge wants to start it up with the USA?

It’s time for Obama to visit Brazil and demonstrate just how low he can bow.
