New York Yankees broadcaster Michael Kay is facing massive backlash after attacking patriotic displays at sporting events, specifically targeting military tributes and Team USA athletes who dare to express love for their country.

During a recent broadcast, Kay expressed his discomfort with what he dismissively called "wrapping sports in the flag and preaching patriotism," making it clear he believes military speakers and patriotic athletes have no place in America's pastime.

This is exactly the kind of woke nonsense that President Trump has been fighting against since taking office. While our Commander-in-Chief works to restore respect for our military and flag, we have privileged sports commentators attacking the very foundations that make America great.

Anti-American Sentiment Spreads Through Sports

Kay's comments represent a disturbing trend among liberal media figures who seem embarrassed by American exceptionalism. These are the same people who stayed silent when Colin Kaepernick disrespected our flag, but now they're actively campaigning against honoring our troops.

"When you have military speakers or Team USA athletes expressing patriotism, apparently that makes Michael Kay uncomfortable. What does that tell you about where his loyalties lie?"

This attack on patriotism comes at a time when President Trump is working overtime to rebuild our military strength and restore pride in serving our country. Our brave men and women in uniform deserve recognition, not ridicule from out-of-touch broadcasters who've never worn the uniform.

Patriots across America are demanding accountability. If Kay is so uncomfortable with American pride, perhaps he should find a new line of work - preferably in a country that better aligns with his anti-patriotic values.

The Yankees organization needs to answer a simple question: Do they stand with their broadcaster's anti-military stance, or do they stand with the American people who make their success possible?

Which broadcaster said this? Need names so we can contact advertisers and sponsors.

Been a Yankees fan for 40 years and I'm done if they don't fire this anti-American broadcaster. Sports should unite us around our shared values, not divide us!

Baseball has ALWAYS been America's pastime - patriotism and sports go hand in hand. What's next, no more national anthem?

My son is deployed overseas right now and these tributes remind him that people back home care. How dare this broadcaster attack that connection?

Absolutely disgusting! My grandfather fought in WWII and these military tributes are one of the few things left that bring Americans together. Fire this broadcaster immediately!

Thank you for saying this. As a vet myself, these ceremonies mean everything to us and our families.

This is exactly what's wrong with liberal media elites. They hate America and everything we stand for!

Couldn't agree more. They want to remove patriotism from everything.
