Mary Bono, who was appointed the interim president and CEO of USA Gymnastics last week, has resigned, per CNN'sSarah Boxer, in the wake of a number of controversies, including a since-deleted tweet that was critical of Nike's advertising campaign focused on Colin Kaepernick.
Bono's appointment also came under fire given that she has been a principal at the law firm Faegre Baker Daniels since March 2013.
As Christine Brennan of USA Today wrote: "During that time, the Indianapolis Star reported that the firm worked with USA Gymnastics officials to provide 'false excuses' for Nassar's absence from major gymnastics events in 2015 rather than disclose to parents and gymnasts that Nassar was under investigation for child sexual abuse.
