Country singer Lee Greenwood told "Fox & Friends" Thursday that he was "shocked" at being replaced on National Council on the Arts by the Biden administration.

COUNTRY SINGER LEE GREENWOOD WAS "SHOCKED" AT BEING REPLACED ON NATIONAL COUNCIL ON THE ARTS BY THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION

LEE GREENWOOD: You know, it’s a six-year appointment and I was appointed by George W. Bush 43. So I served under his term. Also, President Obama’s term. Of course, President Trump’s term. And then as you know he used my song "God Bless the USA," which is unilateral for me. It’s meant for all people, not just for a particular political party.

...

So hearing now under the Biden administration and he’s cleaned house and finally he'sfired a patriot. I was quite shocked to tell you the truth. I didn’t get a phone call or letter. It was just an email.

...

I would like to think that it is. And I have to tell you in all our shows. I don’t care where they are. We always honor our veterans and want to particularly point out the fact we have this amazing show coming up October 12th in Huntsville, Alabama at the Bronze Center and set aside a lock of tickets which I do at most of our events.

To be replaced by someone who is not proud to be an American.

He’s not shocked. Lee knew it was coming and probably anticipated the cut. This just makes good headlines, makes Joe look even worse and Trump look better. Lee will probably sing in person at the next rally.

Well, I suppose the Biden Administration and their National Council on the Arts simply decided the Lee Greenwood was too old, too American and way too white to remain on the National Council on the Arts.

Maybe he will be replaced by a Hatian Reggae singer with,
“I Be Proud to Be a Blac Democrat”.

Does not take much to read these tealeaves. When the National Archives (NARA) puts “trigger warnings” on the Declaration of Independence and the other “Charters of Freedom”, you know that the Swamp is casting out the unbelievers! It is unreal when I hear about ‘moderate’ Joe Biden and all I can think of is how easy it is to drink the Koolade!

His music celebrates America. Why would a communist dictator like Biden want to keep that alive?

Lee Greenwood needs to remember:

the same democrats doing this to him also intentionally sent COVID infected illegals to Florida as a revenge move against our Governor DeSantis.

And yeah, Floridians died because of that move... Greenwood's blessed democrat/commies aren't killing is family too.

We need to remember these actions by Libs when we get back into power. Fire everyone in the government we can and transfer the rest to Alaska. Sure they will quit instead of transferring to Alaska, so Mission Accomplish!

Cmon, man. . .don’t you see? Biden is just trying to bring us all together. Writing a song about loving the USA and asking “God” to bless America is just too divisive and violates the 1st Amendment separation of church and state. Also, to “love the USA,” a nation dominated by whites, clearly suggests only loving white people while celebrating white privilege. Greenwood is a racist and has gotta go!

Perhaps he can put this line in on his Rally song...
“They fired me from the arts council but at least I know I’m free...”

Local news is covering still wall to wall repeating same stuff over and over, giving little info. LOCAL NEWS IS IN LOOP FLORMAT.

Shelby County has several surrounding cities, Memphis is the CRIME CAPITOL OF THE STATE. NO COLOR GIVEN

14 shot including shooter, shooter is a Vender Disgruntled employee. NO ONE HAD A GUN, IN A PERMITLSSS CARRY STATE IN A CRIME RIDDLE COUNTY. These stores play loud music, and scream over it on the microphone. 1 GUN CARRIER COULD HAVE FIRED BAC AND MAYBE KILLED THE SHOOTER, SAVING PEOPLE.

HALF OF NEW PERMIT CARRIERS ARE WOMEN.

Shocked? Why was he even surprised, much less shocked? If he knows anything about politics at all, he should know these commies intend to erase Trump and everyone he was associated with.

I’m only surprised they didn’t do it sooner.
