It’s the Olympics. Which means the misinformation about Surya Bonaly’s backflip runs rampant again. She was not the 1st person to do one — that was USA’s Terry Kubicka, who did it in the 1970s. Than it was banned from competition until last year. #WinterOlympics #MilanCortina #FigureSkating

If the world learned about #ICE at the #WinterOlympicsParalympics #MilanCortina,it's because #WikiLeaks cables allowed us to discover it and ask specific Qs to #ICE

16 years after their publication, #WikiLeaks cables still allow us understanding the world in which we live

It’s kinda poetic that they had to light the #Olympicflame today indoors becase it was raining outside. Thats how I feel about next year’s #Olympics: dampened enthusiasm

2000-2010 music? 🫤 That will be tricky with the music copyright problem. (However, I look forward to Snoop’s “Drop It Like It’s Hot” and Robyn’s “Dancing On My Own”) #GPFigure #Olympics #MilanCortina

Ultimately, it's the Italian government that can exclude US ICE agents from operating at the Games, and the IOC can politically reinforce or facilitate that choice.
