The 2020 Summer Olympics (Games of the XXXII Olympiad) will be held in Tokyo, Japan, beginning July 23, 2021, lasting about 16 days.
Initially, despite the liberal media hype about the coronavirus, organizers attempted to hold these games as planned in 2020. But pressure caused the shutting down of training centers in 2020, and ultimately Japan felt compelled to move these games to 2021.
The International Olympic Committee is now forbidding the wearing of political apparel to the Olympic Games, including Black Lives Matter apparel, as BLM is a political organization.[1] However, apparel containing generic terms such as "peace" and "equality" are still permitted.
Athletes
Clayton Murphy won the U.S. trials for the 800m in the best time of this year, and did not even look fatigued after the race. He won the bronze medal in this race in 2016.
Katie Ledecky could win five medals in swimming, after winning a gold in 2012 and four in 2016 at those Olympics.[2]
Biased media coverage
Liberal media coverage has been overwhelmingly devoted to women athletes who have been disqualified due to drug use or protesting the American flag. There has been little media coverage of male athletes in track and field or wrestling sports.
