Greg Abbott declines throwing first pitch at Rangers home opener over MLB's woke, partisan stance on Georgia

If society collapses, do you have the medical supplies you need? Check out “The Medic,” or as I like to call it, the Big Daddy of first aid kits.

The false narrative that voter integrity laws in Georgia somehow harm persons of color has been debunked by many, including some in mainstream media. But that didn’t stop Major League Baseball from “going woke” and getting involved in partisan politics. They moved the All Star Game from Georgia as a result, and many fans are not very happy with them.

One such fan is Texas Governor Greg Abbott. He had accepted an invitation to throw the first pitch during the Texas Rangers’ home opener, but following the ridiculous and false virtue signaling by Major League Baseball, he has now rescinded his acceptance of the honor.

In a letter to Neil Leibman, President of Business Operations and Chief Operating Officer for the Texas Rangers, Abbott declined the invitation that he had formerly accepted.

I was looking forward to throwing out the first pitch at the Texas Rangers' home opening game until @MLB adopted what has turned out to be a false narrative about Georgia's election law reforms.

“Thank you for the invitation to throw out the first pitch at the Texas Rangers’ home opening game. I was looking forward to it—until Major League Baseball adopted what has turned out to be a false narrative about the election law reforms in Georgia, and, based on that false narrative, moved the MLB All-Star Game from Atlanta. It is shameful that America’s pastime is not only being influenced by partisan political politics, but also perpetuating false political narratives. The State of Texas was proud to help MLB host last season’s National League playoff games and the World Series in Arlington. However, I will not participate in an event held by MLB, and the State will not seek to host the All-Star Game or any other MLB special events.

“This decision does not diminish the deep respect I have for the Texas Rangers baseball organization, which is outstanding from top to bottom. I wish the team great success this season.”

Fans of MLB who believe in freedom, voter integrity, or even a truthful narrative regardless of political leanings should be as angry as Greg Abbott at Major League Baseball for embracing a bald-faced lie.



Yes, We Need Your Help

I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…

When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.

Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.

The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our new GiveSendGo. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.

We currently operate:

  • NOQ Report
  • Conservative Playlist
  • Uncanceled News
  • Based Underground
  • Truth Based Media
  • Five other conservative news sites

I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.

For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
