We know, it's a post about curling, the non-sport that no one cares about. But Team USA curler Rich Ruohonen is from Minnesota, and he said in a press conference while representing the United States to the world that he'd be remiss if he didn't talk about what was going on in his home state. Ruohonen is a lawyer and explains that we have a Constitution that prevents you from being pulled over without probable cause. "There's no shades of gray," he says, noting that "what's happening in Minnesota is wrong."
We have a Constitution, and we have borders, and we have an Executive branch responsible for enforcing immigration law. At least he started out by saying he was proud to represent the United States, but …

We've heard from the curlers now, as well as the snowboarders and the skiers. We were waiting for someone from the curling team to speak up.

I can’t believe we almost forgot to ask for political opinions from the dude who sweeps the ice. 🤦♂️

Well sweeping shouldn’t be considered a sport so there is no reason at all to even speak to him.

His comment although his, should not be on this platform. He needs a ticket home now

It's been great hearing American Olympians using their platform to trash American in front of the whole world.
With the exception of the hockey team, these Olympic athletes are insufferable.

Screen these POS before allowing them to represent the US. If they aren’t patriots, don’t allow them to compete. I’d rather see a patriot come in last than these jerks win gold.

Whenever I need a political opinion, the first person I go to is a curler.

Some needs to explain to this dickhead that there are no “constitutional” violations going on in Minnesota and instead the enforcement of actual laws, long standing federal immigration and criminal laws enforced by every administration since their enactment.

It's stunning how stupid someone can be while still excelling at something else.

That was a valuable constitutional lesson, delivered with eloquence.
