CRUEL: Russian Skater Who Failed Doping Test is a Minor
Unbelievable.


As if these Olympics weren’t already scandalous enough, here comes the Kremlin to up the ante.
The games, which are taking place in genocidal China, have already had their fair share of controversies. There are the claims of China-bias from referees, inhumane conditions for athletes, and now a worker has interrupted a ski race, forcing one athlete to have a “do-over”.
And, almost predictably, Russia found itself in the middle of a doping scandal, (again), which forced the delay of one of the figure skating medals.
To make matters even worse, the athlete who failed the test was only 15 years old.
Olympic figure skating sensation Kamila Valieva cracked a smile during a training session on Thursday despite being the focus of Russia’s latest drug testing scandal just a day earlier.
Valieva, who is the favorite to win gold in the women’s individual event next week, skated with teammate Alexandra Trusova during a 30-minute training session but looked unfazed by the recent reports that she tested positive for a banned substance which delayed Tuesday’s medal ceremony for the team event where the Russian Olympic Committee won gold.
And here is where it gets cruel and unusual.
Little details are known about the situation which is complicated by the 15-year-old’s age.
The ROC, followed by the United States and Japan, were to be honored during their official medal ceremony on Tuesday, but the event was pulled from the schedule without explanation.
If Russia is disqualified from the event, it would not only add a bit of grime to their already-tarnished reputation when it comes to Olympic doping, but it would provide the United States with its first ever gold medal in the discipline.

There are plenty of ways in which American politicians can react to a tragedy, with a great many of those options being a bit shortsighted.
This is especially true of Democrats, it seems, as their innate progressivism makes them uniquely obsessed with change for the sake of change – even when those changes may be constitutionally questionable.
The latest example of this comes to us from New York, where a racist massacre at a grocery store has the state government looking to spy on citizens’ social media accounts.
New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) on Wednesday announced plans to create a police unit designed to, in part, combat “hate speech” in the wake of the tragic shooting in Buffalo, promising to “confront this epidemic head-on.”
“We’re proposing a comprehensive plan to combat domestic terrorism, strengthen state gun laws, & investigate social media platforms promoting violent extremism,” Hochul announced Wednesday.
“In wake of the racist act of terror in Buffalo, New York will lead the charge to confront this epidemic head-on”.
The devil was in the (lack of) details:
One of the governor’s executive orders instructs the State Police to establish a “dedicated unit within the New York State Intelligence Center (NYSIC) to track domestic extremism and increase social media monitoring at the Intelligence Center.”
“The unit will be responsible for developing investigative leads based on social media analyses focused on radical extremist activities motivated threats by identifying online locations and activities that facilitate radicalization and promote violent extremism,” it reads in part.
Without any clear or concise guard rails, those employed within the unit would be left to examine any number of questionable pieces of alleged “evidence”, tagging and cataloging completely harmless users in the sort of overreach that would have George Orwell not only rolling over in his grave, but kicking at the lid of his coffin as well.
