Fans Intentionally Walk after Baseball's Activism
by Tony Perkins
The 2021 baseball season isn't even a week old, and it's already over for some fans. Why? Because, as Andrew McCarthy so efficiently put it: the Left ruins everything.

Today's show features: Brian Kemp, Governor of Georgia, on Major League Baseball caving to cancel culture and pulling its All-Star game out of Georgia; Robin Lundstrum, Arkansas State Representative, on Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson's disappointing decision to veto the Save Adolescents from Experimentation (SAFE) Act; David Closson, FRC's Director of Christian Ethics and Biblical Worldview, on Senator Raphael Warnock's tweet that said "the meaning of Easter is more transcendent than the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Whether you are Christian or not, through a commitment to helping others we are able to save ourselves"; Michael Waltz, U.S. Representative for the 6th District of Florida, on the hypocrisy of the MLB as it pulls its All-Star game out of Georgia while expanding its partnership with Chinese Communists engaging in genocide.
