Alysa Liu is the first Olympic Figure Skater to win gold for America in 24 years. And she did it in style. But the backstory of her win is amazing.

Her father was granted asylum in the US after the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre in China. But in 2022, her father’s past came back to haunt them as they were victims of Chinese spying.

“The spy operation didn’t scare Liu off from competing in Beijing. But she had heightened security assurances from the U.S. State Department and USOPC, as at least two people escorted her at all times when she was there.” Fox 

“THE ULTIMATE AMERICAN REVENGE STORY
​The script couldn’t have written it better. In 1989, Arthur Liu fled China as a political refugee after the Tiananmen Square massacre. He came to America with nothing but a dream for a free life.
​Decades later, his daughter Alysa Liu became the face of Team USA.
​But the CCP didn’t forget. Before the 2022 Beijing Olympics, the FBI uncovered a “brazen” spying operation. The target? Alysa and her father. The Chinese government tried to:
​Stalk them on U.S. soil.
​Intimidate her into silence.
​Pressure her to turn her back on the country that gave her family refuge.
​The FBI had to give them 24/7 security just so she could compete. ?️
​She faced the intimidation. She refused to be a pawn. She walked away from the sport for two years to find her soul again—and then she came back with a vengeance.
​TODAY, THE STORY IS COMPLETE. In a flawless performance to Donna Summer’s “MacArthur Park,” Alysa Liu just did the impossible.
​? OLYMPIC GOLD. ? The first American woman to win individual gold in 24 years.
​She didn’t just skate for a medal. She skated for the freedom her father risked everything for. She didn’t just win for herself; she won for the flag that protected her family when the world felt small.
​This is what a Patriot looks like.”  @afshineemrani

If you watch only one Olympic
performance, watch Alysa Liu. Mesmerizing and joyful.
Liu made what took years of practice, immense talent and courage to perfect look easy. https://t.co/cccqbmLsjz

Whether it’s the daughter of a Chinese refugee, or the people who escaped Cuba under the Castros, the warnings from those who came here LEGALLY are dire. But the story of Alysa Liu is the ultimate American revenge story. Congratulations to her!
