re: Simone Biles with a message for all the girls out there

Well to be fair, Olympic committee saying they aren't going to judge her on abilities that she can do and no one else can. Is kind of fricked up. I'm sure that played a huge role in her breakdown.

Exactly how? is there a link to this statement?

That is not at all what they said. The dispute (and it's only that USAG and Simone think start values should be higher) is about the start value, mostly on vault and a little bit on floor. Her Yurchenko double pike has a start value of 6.6. The Yurchenko double full has a 5.4 and the Yurchenko 2.5 full has a 5.8. USAG thinks the 6.6 should be higher.

Nowhere has anyone EVER said she won't be judged on it. She will be. She is also allowed to do it. She just wants a higher start value. Her start value already is much higher than everyone else, except for bars. Suni kills it on bars.
