If you noticed one of the athletes comments was focused on CITIZENS, I give the REST all of the credit and respect they deserve. Either you respect the DIGNITY of ALL beings or you don’t…there’s no MIDDLE GROUND! I SALUTE 🫡 the others for UNDERSTANDING what we are SUPPOSED to be. 🇺🇸☮️🫶🏽🙏🏽🖖🏽Do your best!

Team USA freestyle skiers speak out against ICE This is Great!! The White Nationalist party is trying to take over America, these athletes need to SPEAK OUT NOW!!
2/7/26, 05:27 PM
The athletes have come out and stated they may be wearing an American flag, but were worried and did not approved what is going on in America. 🇺🇸

Regardless of the impact of our life meaning, we must have basic rights, and the goal can be pursuit of happiness. Olympic started & I will root for Korean players. But I want to see sportsmanship rather than nationalism because humanity makes this world better. www.youtube.com/shorts/0ZY36...

What trump would say: “Congrats to ME for being your favorite president! Our patriotic athletes love me and I’m looking forward them all giving me their Olympic medals!”
2/7/26, 05:03 PM
However, journalists from BBC Sport identified four Russian athletes who may have violated neutrality. Figure skater Pyotr Gumennik has ties to a sanctioned individual, while skier Savely Korostelyov supported military content online. (4/7)
2/7/26, 05:01 PM
Good luck to all competitor, especially US competitors in the #winterOlympics. You know that if you win gold 🥇 Trump won't let you back in the country until you donate it the medals to him! 😬
2/7/26, 04:58 PM
if they had morals the upcoming LA Olympics would be relocated to a country that isn't presently engaged in a wide variety of violations of domestic law, customary international law, and formal international law

She could have won... you cant tell me fear and stress of not making your Olympic performance didnt affect her. Our leaders are a fkn joke. What if that was the plan... cause a big delay to undermine America's athletes. I dont trust nazis in any situation and neither should you
2/7/26, 04:56 PM
Representing Team USA DOES NOT MEAN you are cool with everything the United States does as an administration. It's been that way for a while and dumbasses (you know who) still don't get it.

Yep. It’s really hard to support the US right now. I’m glad to see our Olympic athletes saying what people need to hear. Especially the folks who aren’t paying attention. How do we reach more of those people? Moments like this! 🇺🇸🗽
2/7/26, 04:37 PM
They’re ashamed of what their country has become under the current regime. Such a pity when these athletes should be bursting with pride as in days of yore.
2/7/26, 04:28 PM
It’s also the 3rd time they’ve violated it. Seems to be Putin’s M.O. Honestly, I’m happy they’re gone. Had enough of the endless bullshit and the IOC’s limp wristed treatment of them up to 2022. F*** em
2/7/26, 04:27 PM
Two freestyle skiers from the US spoke up yesterday at the Olympics about what it’s like to represent the country right now. Chris Lillis and Hunter Hess.
2/7/26, 04:26 PM
Winter Olympian who is playing for Team Great Britain (he formerly was Team USA) Gus Kenworthy left a message in the snow with his urine.
2/7/26, 04:25 PM
It’s weird to be so proud of the athletes competing in the Olympics and be completely ashamed of the country.
2/7/26, 04:16 PM
The International Olympic Committee is a racist organization.
2/7/26, 04:13 PM
I will note that Ukraine was applauded loudly during the opening ceremonies. The USA, not so much.
2/7/26, 04:06 PM
I'm very proud of these athletes for speaking out against the regime. The world is watching with horror what is happening here with the GOP regime. Hearing our brilliant athletes speak out against the ICE atrocities is very patriotic and amazing.
2/7/26, 03:56 PM
Even competing as Individual Neutral Athletes is a political choice adorned in political symbolism! It actually even involved a political background check (for the Russian and Belarusian competitors)!
2/7/26, 03:51 PM
Por alguna razón no he leido en ningún sitio el abucheo que se llevó la selección de Israel anoche durante la inauguración de los JJOO de invierno.
2/7/26, 03:50 PM
It's hard for me to get into the Olympics now, because all I can think of is how fortunate these Americans are that they get to go to other countries and there's no problems for them. Meanwhile people in America have to worry about being deported to a foreign supermax or, you know, shot in the face.
2/7/26, 03:48 PM
From a human perspective, I feel for these athletes. They worked their whole life to be at the Olympics, and now their country is very unpopular around the world. But their discomfort pales against the suffering this administration has caused within and outside the U.S.
2/7/26, 03:47 PM
In another news, many athletes used their chance to shyte on our situation 👍🏽
2/7/26, 03:45 PM
It’s so hard to represent the United States today. Our athletes should not be burdened by our government’s acting to harm others. But they naturally are.
2/7/26, 03:37 PM
US Olympic athletes speak out against ICE Gestapo. That’s patriotism.

At least the athletes are saying they are proud to represent America for their families and friends, but not proud of what America currently is.
2/7/26, 03:07 PM
They're there now, and can use the platform of the Olympics to be vocal. Don't watch... but don't demean their goals and aspirations if they don't align with how you think they should act. What's your career, give it up to go march and protest... do it now! That's the same "ask" you make of them
2/7/26, 03:04 PM
I disagree. Italy protested the Israel football team and they are rightly protesting these athletes.

As a diehard Wisconsin-born hockey fan it is *crushing* me to cheer for Canada over the US in these Olympics, but it is what it is. 😖

Winter Olympian Pees A Message In The Snow For Trump Administration "Yes, I'm a child," the freestyle skier explained. Freestyle Olympic skier Gus Kenworthy streamed his protest against Immigration and Customs Enforcement this week, seemingly peeing his message in the snow.

Wow!!! A strongly worded attack on the Trump administration from the International Olympic Committee.

This week a wrestling colleague held up the start of a match so the crowd could voice its disgust with ICE. Two days later someone I used to skate with waved the flag for Team USA while the world cheered (until they booed the VP mercilessly). The world is very tiny, people are mostly beautiful.
"The Winter Olympics start today, and we will feel pride and honor for our country. But when we see our criminal, delusional, President, we feel none of those things. I’ve faced off with him before, and now I’m ready to take him on in Congress."

I agree, his 30% apparently do not. Sometimes I think they just can’t admit they were wrong from the beginning.
2/7/26, 01:53 PM
Like many people, I feel utterly disconnected from the Olympics this year, and we are a family that has followed a winter sport for years. It isn’t even a conscious decision to boycott, it’s that it is too painful to be an American right now. #2026olympics
2/7/26, 01:52 PM
The athletes chanted USA! USA! as well. The standards towards International competition is arrogant and rude. Very representative of the USA in global eyes today.
2/7/26, 01:51 PM
Thank goodness the US Olympic Committee didn’t choose the Statue of Liberty. That woke false idol! 🤦

This would mean a lot more if you were running in an R district & trying to flip it than in a safe D district with a Kennedy (a sane one) running.

The Olympic flame is lit again. Stadiums cheer, flags rise, records fall. Yet while the world celebrates youth, talent and fair play, an entire generation of Ukrainian athletes will never march again. Runners, gymnasts, fighters, cyclists.

Why is it astounding? There's nothing high-profile going on in America at the moment that anyone has anything to be proud of. Unless you are evil.

Our Athletes Work Too Hard And Make Great Sacrifices To Compete For America In The Olympics. For Them To Have To Explain Why America Is No Longer A Shining Example Of Democracy. Takes Their Minds Off Competing At Their Highest Levels. Sadly This Is A Major Distraction For Everyone ‼️
2/7/26, 12:47 PM
US Olympians want nothing to do with ICE US Olympic skiers Chris Lillis & Hunter Hess are heartbroken over Trump's ICE killings like Renee Good & Alex Pretti & refuse to rep THAT America at Milan 2026. 'Ice House' renamed 'Winter House' amid boos for JD Vance. #Olympics #ICE

Qué infame dejar participar a los genocidas en unos juegos olímpicos.. y que falta de empatía y ética de nuestros deportistas compitiendo con ellos y normalizándoles

Love that some of the athletes are using the Winter Olympics to #RESIST !!!! Gus Kenworthy’s message in the snow written in urine! 🤣
2/7/26, 12:37 PM
Die US-Athletinnen und -Athleten bei Olympia können nichts dafür, dass ihre Niederlagen mit leichter klammheimlicher Freude zur Kenntnis genommen werden.
2/7/26, 12:27 PM
As someone who knows one of the black athletes in the Olympics, they DESERVE to win based on THEIR efforts, regardless of who's in office here. They, and their families, have worked to get to Italy for YEARS. That asshat in our WH will never take that from them. They participate despite him.
2/7/26, 12:26 PM
Toussaint Louverture still makes the establishment tremble. The IOC insisted on having Louverture's image removed from Haiti's winter Olympic team uniforms. Designer Stella Jean regrouped: “'His absence speaks louder than his presence ever could.'" : www.miamiherald.com/news/nation-...

It was heartening to see that the loudest cheers, aside from their own Italian athletes, were for Canada and Mexico. The rest of the world sees the #NaziKing attacking both of us all the time with his lies and hate. The rest of the world sees it, just not the monsters in murica. #FuckTrump 🇨🇦🇲🇽
