When asked at a news conference at the Milan Cortina Games how it felt to represent the United States while ICE agents detained immigrants back home, freestyle skier Hunter Hess responded that he had mixed feelings: “If it aligns with my moral values, then I feel like I’m representing them,” Hess said. “Just because I wear the flag doesn’t mean I represent everything that happens in the United States.”
