Let’s be frank…
We all know that the MLB’s decision to boycott Georgia for their decision is merely a “woke” public relations stunt that would backfire. This is nothing more than a way for the league to make a major, glamorous political statement – while damaging American families in the process – but progressives don’t seem to mind.

The fact that the MLB would vehemently oppose actually displaying your ID at the voting podium, but they seem to have no problem now working with China – something they’ve held on the “down low” – is a major reason why this is so obvious.
China has committed a slew of human rights abuses in the past – gross, heinous, and unthinkable violations.
And one person who is slamming the MLB for this latest “China gig” is Rand Paul, who slammed the league in a venomous tweet:
Your sports league might be a little too woke if it will freely do business with Communists in China and Cuba, but boycotts a US state that wants people to show an ID to vote. #MLBAllStarGame #mlb
