Biden defends Sha'Carri Richardson suspension as progressives, some in GOP balk: ‘Rules are the rules’
Fox News
President Biden gave a muted response Saturday to sprinter Sha’Carri Richardson’s suspension due to a positive marijuana test that will cut her from the Tokyo Olympics later this month.
Richardson, 21, a Dallas native, apologized Friday, explaining she had used the drug to cope with the loss of her biological mother who died soon before the race. Unlike Biden, progressive Democrats have balked at the suspension, many linking it to racism.More Related News
