Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) reacted to House Speaker Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) urging American athletes competing at the 2022 Winter Olympics to avoid angering China by wondering why Pelosi didn\u2019t support boycotting the games if she thinks China could disappear athletes for speaking out and saying that Pelosi is admitting that we\u2019re putting our athletes in danger by sending them to the games.<\/p>\n<p>Host Jimmy Failla asked, [relevant exchange begins around 1:34:00] \u201cI mean, if we\u2019re openly admitting as a government that we\u2019re terrified at the lack of a premium on human life demonstrated by that government, isn\u2019t that alone an admission that we\u2019re kind of putting our athletes in harm\u2019s way just by sending them?\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>Blackburn responded, \u201cOf course it is. But where was Nancy Pelosi for the past year as I\u2019ve been saying, let\u2019s not send our athletes? Let\u2019s have the U.S.A. Freedom Games right here so that they can compete, but let\u2019s not send them there where they\u2019re going to be surveilled, we don\u2019t know what may happen to their health. We do not know, if they speak out, if they will disappear them like they\u2019ve done with Peng Shuai. We don\u2019t know what could happen to them. We do know that they can\u2019t take their electronics. We do know that the burner phones that they\u2019re being given have to be downloaded with an app where they will use the digital yuan. They\u2019ll be able to call and communicate with people, but we also know the Chinese Communist Party will be surveilling every single bit of that.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>She added, \u201cI mean, think about it, Pelosi cannot even figure out who to be upset with. She is telling the athletes to keep their mouths shut. She should have been saying, the Chinese Communist Party is up to no good. We don\u2019t want you there. Because we are so proud of you, we want you to have a good, healthy, productive, free life, and we don\u2019t want to put you over there and put you in harm\u2019s way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Follow Ian&nbsp;Hanchett on Twitter&nbsp;<a class=\"x5l\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/IanHanchett\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\">@IanHanchett<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Friday\u2019s broadcast of Fox News Radio\u2019s \u201cFox Across America,\u201d Sen.
