Team USA Olympic freestyle skier Hunter Hess explained how representing the U.S. in the 2026 Milano Cortina Games brings about “mixed emotions” amid the ICE raids back home.
“It brings up mixed emotions to represent the U.S. right now I think,” Hess said. “It’s a little hard. There’s obviously a lot that I’m not the biggest fan of and I think a lot of people aren’t. If it aligns with my moral values I feel like I’m representing it – just because I wear the flag doesn’t mean I represent everything that’s going on in the U.S.”
