We are less than two weeks from the opening ceremonies of the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing.
Here’s a thought – perhaps we should close them before they ever get going.
Sure, the never-ending effects of COVID-19 are keeping fans from attending in person and international travel parties light.

But beyond COVID-19, the warnings from human rights groups that athletes use throwaway cellphones and refrain from speaking out about the atrocities committed by the Chinese government should be a red flag. In fact, if international travel preparations include the purchase of untraceable burner phones, then shouldn’t that travel plan be reviewed ASAP?
A clear winner
