On Thursday, Madison Square Garden Company boss James Dolan announced that the Radio City Rockets had agreed to perform at the Trump inauguration.

And a bunch of the Rockets sort of went off their rockers.

One Rockett wrote, quote, I usually don't use social media to make a political stand, but I feel overwhelmed with emotion.

Finding out that it has been decided for us that Rockettes will be performing at the presidential inauguration makes me feel embarrassed and disappointed.

The women I work with are intelligent, are full of love, and the decision of performing for a man that stands for everything we're against is appalling.

I am speaking for just myself, but please know, after we found out this news, we have been performing with tears in our eyes and heavy hearts, which makes the show really crappy. We will not be forced. Hashtag, not my president. George Taked, who's an ardent Trump opponent, and Sulu, of course, from the old Star Trek, he tweeted in their support, and here's what he tweeted. The members of the Rock Cats and the Mormon tabernacle are like all of us, forced to go along with something horrible they didn't choose. I mean, like, half the country did actually choose Trump, and actually pretty much everybody

chose to live here, and it's a peaceful transition of power that happens every four years.

But, you know, meanwhile, Anthony Bourdain has announced he won't eat at any restaurant

hosted at Trump Tower.

Fashion icon Andre Leontali has said he won't dress Melania Trump anymore.

Artists whose products hang in Ivanka Trump's apartment have asked her to remove their art.

They have not asked for her to give back the money.

Suddenly, it seems, the left has discovered freedom of association.

After years of telling religious people, they had a moral and legal obligation to throw out their religion and service same-sex weddings and provide contraception and fund abortion, now the

left realizes the ability to pick and choose those to whom you give your services is actually

kind of important. Don't expect it to last. Of course, artists should be able to turn down clients,

so should religious bakers, but you won't see the left acknowledge that.

The only freedom to turn down clients is the freedom for leftists to turn down

conservative and religious clients, not the other way around.

I'm Ben Shapiro.

This is The Ben Shapiro Show.

All right, tons to get to here today on the very last Ben Shapiro show broadcast of the year.
