    These reports are disturbing. USA Swimming should have taken action, but it appears they did nothing. We need a special committee, as called for by my colleagues @SenJoniErnst and @SenatorShaheen, to investigate these failures.https://www.ocregister.com/2018/02/16/investigation-usa-swimming-ignored-sexual-abuse-for-decades/ …

        I don’t think blaming the victims for their silence is fair. They probably had their reasons - fear, retaliation, backlash, shame - for keeping it a secret.

        So you’re saying that minors in nothing but bathing suits might need protection from pedophiles? No shit Sherlock. Stop talking and do something. All you liars are the same. Talk talk talk, no action.

        After Nassar, I gave up watching or reading about the Olympics. This doesn’t surprise me, and I’m sure there is much, much more to come out.

        This country is so broken. So much pain and suppression for so long. This has to be investigated senator. And it has to be stopped. Are we going to see this for every sport?

        Investigations are definitely needed-across ALL sports, not just as we learn about them. There’s bound to be issues in tennis, golf, basketball, volleyball, etc.

        Yes, there have been exposes about the sexual abuse rampant in swimming. I don't understand why this hasn't gotten more attention in light of the gymnastics scandal.

        As a former swimmer in my high school days and a lover of the Olympic sport, I am highly disappointed with USA Swimming.

        Same, @southpaw_writer. Athletes put so much trust in those who are supposed to be watching out for them, and there are monsters who take advantage of that.

        Indeed. I had the honor of meeting a few athletes who swam for USA Swimming when I was younger. It makes me ill thinking they could have been affected by this.

        This is unrelated, but if you Dems want to win then you need to run on gun reform (the word control scares people), net neutrality, and free public college. I understand your donors are against Medicare for all

        It’s okay to address more than tragedy. One doesn’t negate the other.

        As a matter of fact you have a constitutional responsibility to PROTECT the children of our country. All of you in Washington take money, move on and let our children suffer and get killed. Stop with the bullshit “statements” that say and mean nothing. #NeverAgain

        I understand the cynicism, but you're barking up the wrong tree to accuse Gilibrand. She's fought, consistently, to protect women in the military. (I could rant about the national D party failing to confront Rs and/or stand for their principles as a group, but... Truth?

        The Rs are aided and abetted by a media culture that gives Rs more respect and attention. And the Ds simply do not have the votes to force the issue here, or on gun control (among other things). Pushing the "all politicians are crooked" or "Ds and Rs are the same" line serves

        the R agenda because, in the long run, it leads to a belief that no action can effect change. People disengage from civic/political involvement and the truly shitty get their way in all things. It's part of how we ended up with an R-dominated Congress. And... Trump.

        We got R’s and Little Donnie because the Dems don’t actually fight. They talk a lot. They make demands. Then they fold on every one of them. Dem leadership went extinct when President Obama left the Whitehouse. It’s reality.
