health led her to withdraw from team competition from 2021 from the olympics and as of yesterday, simone biles is officially the greatest of all time, the g.o.a.t., the most decorated u.s. olympic journalist -- gymnast in history. and as part of her big moment, ms. biles shows to redirect a little of her spotlight onto donald trump. not in a good way. earlier this week, if you recall, trump double down on his claim that immigrants are taking what he called, black jobs, he said while he was speaking to the national association of black journalists. and today, simone biles turned trump's comment on its head celebrating her olympic victory with a tweet reading, i love my black job. that clap back, is the capstone to what has already been a very bad week for donald trump. by contrast, trump's opponent, kamala harris is having what could be called a banner week, starting a survey, the democratic party has been holding its virtual roll call, to select its nominee. as of this afternoon, vice president kamala harris has secured the necessary 1976 delegate votes to become the democratic nominee. techni

simone biles will be competing in the individual vault tomorrow.ky has the 800 meter in front of her. she has a heat today, and she will most likely qualify. her biggest competition in that race is summer mcintosh, a canadian swimmer, she's not racing the event here in paris. so, katie ledecky's chances of getting yet another gold medal are really, really terrific. as you mentioned, there are some other opportunities in the pool, caeleb dressel will be defeating his 50 meter olympic gold medal as well and regan smith, she's got the backstroke. so, you know, we are heading into a good string for u.s. athletes and, of course, the center of gravity is all going to shift to track and field and sha'carri richardson. >> the 10,000 meters men's final tonight. don't forget the long distance events. stephanie gosk, thank you, my friend. that does it for us this busy hour. i'll be back at 3:00 p.m.

simone biles's fans came ready to party. their hero has dominated at these games.with no room for error. oh, no! biles wasn't the only one to fall, but this mistake left her out of medal contention. was she distracted by noise in the crowd? the focus soon turned to the floor. well, simone biles really has raised the volume here at the rena throughout these games. she's already won three gold medals. can she sign off with one more? her main rival for gold was the popular brazilian rebeca andrade. elegant and energetic, she had the score to beat. fabulous tumble! with every lens trained on her, biles began defying the laws of gravity. but with such power and heights come risks. twice she stepped out of bounds — and it cost her. yes, they realised she is human after all. still, there were celebrations, as her team—matejordan chiles had her score upgraded to claim bronze. gymnastics had saved its drama for the final day. a couple of years ago, i didn't think i'd be back here at an olympic games. so competing and then walking away with four medals, i'm not mad about it.

in a new instagram post, biles seemingly made reference to those comments. you see her post right there. simone'saced biles after her withdrawal in tokyo in 2021 apologized for those remarks last month, saying they were misinterpreted. that didn't stop skinner from reportedly blocking biles on instagram on wednesday, according to posts from biles and her teammate jordan chiles. so this back and forth thing has been going on. but clearly, i mean, more power to simone biles and how clever, right, she clapped back at that, too. >> can we give her a gold medal in clap-backs as well? she put her right in her place. she got blocked and then posted about getting blocked. it's not phasing her. it's adding entertainment, fuel to the fire. >> this is a tough position for mykayla skinner to be in. >> reporter: now to netflix taking full advantage of the olympics. the streamer announced that the long-awaited second season of "squid game" is dropping september 26. the announcement revealed that the third and final season of the dystopian korean drama will come sometime in 2025. not only do we have a second se

it was not the golden goodbye simone biles might have hoped for in paris. a fall off the balance beam denied her a medal, and two steps out of bounds forced her to settle for silver in floor exercise. i'm not very upset or anything about my performance at the olympics. i'm actually very happy, proud and even more excited that it's over. teammate jordan chiles initially finished fifth but was elevated to bronze after a requested review of the difficulty score of her routine. when it came through, i was like, very proud of myself, you know? it was my first event final and my first event medal like, this is crazy. laura lindemann of germany a second look also came into play in the mixed triathlon relay. initially, the u.s. came in third, but after a closer look at the photo finish, the americans were moved up to silver, just ahead of great britain. that just shows that, you know, you can't give up until you get to the finish line because yeah, it's decided by the smallest of margins. italy edged out the u.s. 4544, in the mixed team skeet competition, handing f
