          Absolute fail. I had zero indication pushed to me in any media that it started. No one involved seems to be making an effort. I was pushed at least 2 heart tugging struggle stories even before the torch was lit last time.

          She’s represented USA with honor across world, seeks 5th Olympic gold. Those fortunate to cover ⁦@S10Bird⁩’s amazing career would add: win or lose, from teen to 40-year-old, she’s ultimate spokesperson for sport, too. Always thoughtful answers, treating people with respect. pic.twitter.com/y1FuZ4p1xQ

          That’s great that she’s allowed free travel around the world while the US have pretty much sealed off their borders to others. I guess special people have special privileges. #LoveIsNotTourism
