        Multiple stars of the U.S. gymnastics team had complained about Bono, saying that her law firm had been aware of the allegations against Nassar for a year, and that her public stance against Nike and Colin Kaepernick was inappropriate.

        This latest shakeup comes after the previous president, Kerry Perry, was forced out in September after a tumultuous year leading one of the country's most successful Olympic sports.https://n.pr/2P5YNbY

        Great to see consequences for conservatives who look the other way for their own personal gain. Don’t like Kaepernick’s protest? Fine, you don’t get to lead young people. Go work for Fox News.

        It’s too bad it has to be conservatives vs liberals. There is plenty of in between for many and it’s not so black and white. What happened to just American?

        Excellent! It was very distressing to witness yet another huge mistake by @USAGym . She should have been fired, but as long as she is gone.

        Unreal she was ever considered. USAG needs some serious help repairing itself. How is this so hard to find someone with the athletes' best interests?!
