American gymnast, has reportedly called for the expulsion of basketball star
Brittney Griner from the U.S. sports delegation. Biles allegedly argued that Griner’s
actions, particularly her stance during the national anthem, are incompatible with
representing the country on such a global stage.
This development comes amidst heightened scrutiny over athletes’ political and
social statements. Griner, who has previously voiced her opposition to the national
anthem, faced backlash for her stance, which some critics argue vndermines the
team’s unity and patriotism. Despite this, Griner has remained steadfast in her
beliefs, which she views as an exercise of her First Amendment rights.
