In a shocking turn of events, gymnastics superstar Simone Biles has called on the U.S. sports delegation to take decisive action against athletes who kneel during the national anthem, with a particular focus on WNBA star Brittney Griner. Biles, who has consistently represented the United States with pride on the international stage, reportedly proposed that Griner be expelled from the national team due to her past protests during the anthem.
Biles, widely considered one of the greatest gymnasts of all time, made her views clear in a private meeting with key figures in the U.S. Olympic Committee. According to sources close to the meeting, Biles stated, “We cannot let kneelers represent the country. It goes against the values and unity that we, as athletes, are supposed to embody when we wear the red, white, and blue.”
Griner, who has been outspoken about issues of social justice, made headlines in the past for her decision to kneel during the national anthem in protest against racial inequality and police brutality. Her stance has been both celebrated and criticized, but Biles’s comments suggest that within the U.S. sports delegation, there is a growing tension over the issue. The proposed expulsion of Griner has sparked a heated debate among fans and athletes alike. Supporters of Biles argue that representing the United States on the world stage requires a certain level of patriotism and respect for the nation’s symbols, while others believe that Griner’s right to protest is a fundamental freedom that should be protected.
As the Olympics approach, it remains to be seen how the U.S. sports delegation will handle this internal conflict. Will Biles’s proposal lead to stricter regulations, or will the right to free expression prevail? The nation watches closely as one of its most celebrated athletes takes a bold stand.
