In a contentious and misleading post on social media, JD Vance, the Republican vice-presidential nominee, launched an attack on Vice President Kamala Harris’s support for LGBTQ+ inclusivity. Vance falsely accused Algerian Olympic boxer Imane Khelif of being transgender, causing widespread condemnation and backlash from human rights advocates.
And, they DQed her in a way that erased her win, making that Russian boxer still undefeated on the record.
But yeah, they claimed she failed a test, but won’t reveal who did it, or the methodology used, meaning it’s not replicable and thus NOT GOOD SCIENCE.
