"We are a sports organization. That means keeping sport a neutral ground.”

Her plan: Bring back Russia who violated the Olympic charter and who MULTIPLE TIMES engaged in systemic doping schemes.

She's just another Russian shill.

Since launching the fundraising yesterday, we have raised around $125 over the past 24 hours, which is unfortunately far less than needed. I’m sharing this post again to gain more traction. Thank you for your support.

I don’t really know what I expect in posting this, but maybe some people see it and can learn from it.

Google Fulfilled ICE Subpoena Demanding Student Journalist’s Bank and Credit Card Numbers Amandla Thomas-Johnson didn't know how much information ICE requested in a subpoena now. Google never gave him a chance to fight it.

Google gave ICE this British STUDENT JOURNALIST's personal info bank account numbers while they were trying to detain him for attending a protest at a job fair at Cornell for just 5 minutes. Not a crime. He fled to Switzerland & EFF is representing him now. theintercept.com/2026/02/10/g...

Shameful — yet not shocking — that the IOC banned Vladyslav Heraskevych from wearing a helmet portraying Ukrainian athletes whose lives were claimed by russia.

Why is telling the stories of athletes who will never compete in the Olympics labelled "political"?

Full support for Vladyslav.

They claim they'll notify you, but come on. Given what's going on do you really believe that?

As a person who has, at times, expressed concern about the climate of free speech on campus in years past...

This is much worse. This is 1000% worse. Extremely worse.

No good, very bad, much worse. Obvious First Amendment violation worse.

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.
