Jake Paul has quickly amassed a substantial fortune through his boxing career alongside lucrative brand deals and endorsements. That success has been matched by a polarizing personality that often puts him at odds with others across the sports world. That dynamic was evident when Paul called out Olympic American skier Hunter Hess over comments about feeling ashamed to represent the United States.

Hess is an American freestyle skier who represents Team USA in international competition. During the Winter Olympics in Milan, he drew attention after saying he felt conflicted and ashamed about representing the United States due to current political and social issues. The remarks were made while the Games were underway and quickly became a talking point beyond the skiing events themselves.

Paul was present at the Winter Olympics to support his girlfriend, professional speed skater Jutta Leerdam. While attending a Team USA hockey match, Paul was seated beside US Vice President JD Vance, whose appearance drew boos from the crowd. After Hunter Hess’s comments surfaced, Paul quickly posted a harsh response addressing the skier’s remarks about being ashamed to represent the US.

Wow pls shut the f**k up. From all true Americans If you don’t want to represent this country go live somewhere else.

Paul has been a vocal supporter of US President Donald Trump and has publicly backed him in the past. He has regularly attended official White House events and is undoubtedly a frequent presence around Trump’s political circle and public events. Paul has also spoken highly of the President on multiple occasions, praising his leadership and policies in public statements and online posts.

Paul was recently in headlines for his boxing match against former heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua at the Kaseya Center in Miami. The bout was streamed worldwide on Netflix and generated an estimated 33 million live viewers, making it one of the platform’s most-watched combat sports events. It ended with Joshua securing a knockout victory, with Paul leaving the fight with a double broken jaw.

The reaction to Hess came during a wider period of scrutiny at the 2026 Winter Olympics, with fellow American skier Gus Kenworthy also drawing attention for a graphic anti-ICE social media post. Hess’s comments placed him under similar examination, while Jake Paul’s public criticism added further attention to the controversy surrounding American Olympians and national representation.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has faced intensified scrutiny following multiple shootings by federal agents, including the fatal shooting of a woman in Minneapolis that sparked widespread outrage nationwide. The incident drew sustained national attention, fueled protests and debate over ICE practices, and was later highlighted by singer Billie Eilish during her 2026 Grammy Awards acceptance speech.

Jake Paul has repeatedly shown support for Donald Trump and his administration, aligning himself with positions on law enforcement, border security, and federal authority. He has used his platform to praise those policies, later posting criticism of anti-ICE protests and taking a direct jibe at Billie Eilish while defending the Trump government’s approach.

If you don’t like ICE then you can’t call 911 when you’re in trouble. If you don’t respect law enforcement agents then you shouldn’t depend on them. When Billie Eyelash gets her home broken into it’s not gonna be f**k ICE, I can promise you that.
