With Major League Baseball set to open the new season later this week with fans back in stadiums, toxic racial politics have reared their ugly head before the first pitch has even been thrown.
There is already a chance that the All-Star Game will be pulled out of Atlanta, all as a result of the ugly temper tantrum that Democrats and their activist allies are throwing. Their anger follows a new bill designed to restore faith in the state’s election process.
The head of the Major League Baseball Player’s Association is suggesting that the game could be moved out of the state. This decision seems determined to force Georgia’s Republican Governor Brian Kemp and the state legislature to claw back the bill, after calling it a “common sense” piece of legislation.
In remarks reported by the Boston Globe, NLBPA Executive Director Tony Clark threatened to hold the 91st edition of the star-studded contest hostage in order to bully Kemp and Peach State leaders into backing down.
New from @MikeSilvermanBB: Tony Clark says the MLBPA is ready to discuss moving the 2021 All-Star Game from Georgia in the wake of new voter-restriction legislation that some believe will make it difficult for Black voters to reach the polls. https://t.co/WL7yBiiJPb
