My guess is she was not Olympic material and she was put on the team for political/propaganda reasons. The Chinese equivalent of a diversity hire.

She wont be seen much longer in China or any other place.

But, her organs will still be getting around within other people’s bodies.

Did they?

Government knew about it and helped them out.

So who was really responsible? That was Bill Clinton allowing it to happen so he could blame Rush and get re-elected.

The enemy are always the communists. Always remember that.

With any luck she and her family will wind up in a concentration camp.

Agreed.

Is there a video of the fall? The only videos I can find are just stills of the fall.

“Yamamoto was at Harvard too, at one point.”

Her father was a professor.

I thought this TRAITOR'S name was Eileen Gu? Is she a different TRAITOR or are these one the same?

I'm confused, but I surely wouldn't kick them out of bed for eating crackers.

“Yi, who gave up her U.S. citizenship to become a Chinese citizen so she could compete for the communist government’s genocide Olympics, finished with the lowest score for the entire event in Beijing on Saturday, the Daily”

Why would she have to do that?

There’s another skater called Eileen Gu who is American and skates for China.

This Gu gets huge endorsements and positive media coverage here.

Bad reporting inciting people as usual.

Getting more and more of that from Breitbart. And some FReepers just lap it up.

Our Vice President’s parents are foreign - Jamaica and India. They, the Jamaican was a professor at a US university and the mother a student. The parents never became US citizens but the VP did by birth in the US. The father was also an avowed Communist, a well known fact. I don’t know if Kamala ever applied for dual citizenship, but she is according the Jamaican constitution which states any child born of a Jamaican anywhere in the world is automatically Jamaican.

That’s an interesting word observation. Those of who grew up in the Cold War would think that. I looked it up and the definition is general…

defection
the act of abandoning a person or cause to which one has an obligation or allegiance, especially accompanied by flight from one’s country. — defector, defectionist, n.

I suppose “flight from one’s country” implies you are not free to leave, but that is the “especially” add-on to the definition.

You have to admit, she took a flight from the USA. ;>)

The US does not allow dual citizenship with China, and that is reciprocal.
