Mike Pompeo and Robert O’Brien, Trump s former secretary of state and national security adviser, called for the United States to boycott the 2022 “Genocide Olympics” in Beijing as the Biden State Department seemed to send mixed messages about whether it was considering organizing an international boycott of the winter games in China.
