Newsmax's Benny Johnson: The Black national anthem should “be illegal. You shouldn't be able to do that. Is there a white national anthem?”

BENNY JOHNSON (HOST): Sports is woke culture and it's really repugnant to me, and so I don't follow sports super closely. That being said, I do watch the Super Bowl for cultural moments like the Black national anthem being sung. How the hell is this even a thing? What a repugnant, degenerate thing to do, to split up a national anthem by race. That is antithetical, of course, to America. It should, quite frankly, be illegal. You shouldn't be able to do that. Is there a white national anthem? I'm not sure anyone would be very happy with that being sung.

Kari Lake was in the event last night in the stadium. She refused to stand for the Black national anthem, good for her. Nobody should stand for the Black national -- there shouldn't be a Black national anthem because America is a country that is founded upon all of us being created equal, regardless of the melanin amount in your skin or where your ancestors were raised.
