The Summer Olympics are almost upon us, and the U.S. plans to send hundreds of its premier athletes to Paris, France, to compete for gold for the red, white, and blue. Among those athletes will be a female track star who identifies as "trans non-binary," prefers "they/them" pronouns, and even once slammed America for allegedly "hurting trans people."
On Sunday, Nikki Hiltz, a 29-year-old female mid-distance runner, finished first in the 1,500 meter event at the U.S. Olympic Trials in Eugene, Oregon, thus punching her ticket for Paris for her first Olympic Games. Throughout the race, Hiltz and Elle St. Pierre, a veteran of the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo, were neck and neck, but in the final stretch, Hiltz turned on the jets and crossed the finish line with a personal best time of 3:55.33, beating St. Pierre's previous Olympic Trials record by two and a half seconds.
'Sometimes I wake up feeling like a powerful queen and other days I wake up feeling as if I’m just a guy being a dude, and other times I identify outside of the gender binary entirely.'
Hiltz views her win not only as a personal victory but a victory for the LGBTQ "community" as well. "This is bigger than just me. It’s the last day of Pride Month," she said. "I wanted to run this one for my community."
During the race, Hiltz said she "could just feel the love and support" from the "LGBTQ folks." "You guys brought me home that last hundred [meters]," she insisted.
Fellow runners St. Pierre and Emily Mackay will also compete for Team USA in Paris. Opening ceremonies for the 2024 Games begin on July 26.
Hiltz has been a star athlete since her days competing for the Razorbacks at the University of Arkansas. Her UA bio claims she was a member of the women's track and field team, uses female pronouns for her throughout, and even refers to her as her parents' "daughter."
Yet, somewhere along the way, Hiltz decided that she did not like the female label. In 2021, she publicly announced that she identified as "transgender." "That means I don’t identify with the gender I was assigned at birth," she clarified, according to Pink News, an outlet that promotes transgenderism and other LGBTQ issues.
She also described herself as gender "fluid." "Sometimes I wake up feeling like a powerful queen and other days I wake up feeling as if I’m just a guy being a dude, and other times I identify outside of the gender binary entirely," she explained helpfully.
Her Instagram account is filled with pictures of LGBTQ-related events and causes. She also features many pictures with her romantic partner, Emma Gee, who, according to Pink News, was the first openly LGBTQ+ athlete to compete for Brigham Young University, which is run by the LDS Church.
In another Instagram post, Hiltz even thanked NBC and its correspondent for "getting [her] pronouns correct" on a broadcast about another women's 1500m race she won last year.
Hiltz may have difficulty determining her gender on a day-to-day basis, but when she travels to France, she will compete in the women's category against competitors she describes as "people" whom she "deeply love[s] and respect[s]."
In 2021, the International Olympic Committee sidestepped the transgender issue by deferring to the organizations that govern each individual sport, and World Athletics, which governs international track and field events, has forbidden men to compete in women's events. Women who identify as transgender may compete in men's events "if they have satisfactory signed declarations of their gender identities," NBC News reported.

Sports Court Rejects Lia Thomas Case, Delivers Massive Win For Women’s Sports
World Aquatics' transgender policy was established in June 2022. Since then, World Aquatics has created an open category for transgender athletes to compete in.Herschel Walker knocks woke athletes protesting at the Olympics: 'If people don’t like the rules, why are you here?'
Venerated former professional football player Herschel Walker doesn't understand why there are athletes carrying out performative protests at the Tokyo Olympics. Walker, who competed in the 1992 Winter Olympics, has one simple question for woke athletes protesting at the Olympics: "Why are you here?"
Walker, who is rumored to be considering a U.S. Senate run in Georgia, gave an interview to Fox News, where he discussed current-day Olympic athletes and the rush of patriotism he experienced when he was a member of the United States' Olympic bobsleigh team.
"People think I'm very harsh when I say this," Walker said on Friday. "This is the United States of America, and if people don't like the rules here — and there's no doubt we can make some things better — but if people don't like the rules here, why are you here?"
Walker questioned whether the Olympics is "the right place" for Americans to protest their country since there are foreign athletes "who would love to represent the United States of America" if they were ever given the opportunity.
"It's very sad to me because any other country… I can promise you… they would not be representing that country," he added. "I totally disagree with it, but they have the right to do it, even though I think it's wrong. We have to have leaders that… are going to stand up and say the right thing."
Walker, who was one of the greatest college football players of all time, was a member of Team USA's two-man bobsled team at the 1992 Olympics in Albertville, France. The 59-year-old Walker described representing America in the 1992 Olympics as "one of the proudest moments" of his life.
"When I started seeing the United States flag and started seeing the people, the uniform, all my teammates from all different sports coming into that stadium — it almost brought a tear to my eye when I started thinking of where I grew up as a boy in my little hometown, and now having the chance to represent the United States of America," Walker reminisced. "I couldn't have been more proud of anything."
"All of my brothers and sisters were White, but I was [more proud] than anything. I would've died for that group over in France if I had to," Walker said of the USA bobsled team. "[They were] my family. … I couldn't have asked for anything better. I grew up in South Georgia — never, never could have dreamed of anything like that."
Walker's comments stem from woke American athletes staging social justice protests.
Hammer thrower Gwen Berry sparked outrage for turning away from the American flag as the national anthem played at the U.S. Olympic track and field trials last month after she finished in third place in the event. She also revealed a black T-shirt with the words "Activist Athlete" near the end of the national anthem. Only days after the highly publicized protest, internet users unearthed problematic tweets involving racist comments and rape "jokes."
The United States women's soccer team took a knee before its opening-round contest against Sweden in the Tokyo Olympics. After kneeling to make a statement against racism and other forms of discrimination, Team USA lost 3-0 to Sweden, the first loss for the women's soccer team since January 2019.
