Kari Lake, a former Republican gubernatorial candidate in Arizona, took aim at the NFL on Thursday night as the Kansas City Chiefs got set to take on the Detroit Lions.
In the pregame ceremonies, a local youth choir group performed a rendition of “Lift Every Voice and Sing” – known to some as the Black national anthem. The song was performed before “The Star-Spangled Banner” performance. Lake posted about her displeasure.
“I hear the @NFL is still trying to force this divisive nonsense down America’s throats. I won’t stand for it. Literally,” she wrote on X, the company formerly known as Twitter. “America has only ONE National Anthem and that Anthem is color blind.”
Outstanding feature
