Chicago Cubs<\/a> outfielder Matt Shaw will be among numerous speakers at Turning Point USA’s “America Fest” next weekend in Phoenix.<\/p>\n

Shaw attended Charlie Kirk\u2019s funeral<\/a>, which stirred controversy, as he left his team during a postseason push to attend. He also was scratched from the Cubs\u2019 lineup on Sept. 10, the day Kirk was assassinated.<\/p>\n

Upon hearing Shaw would attend next week\u2019s event, longtime Chicago radio host Dan Bernstein implored Shaw to “own it” and “embrace it.” However, Bernstein added he did not want Shaw to “give [him] any of that bulls–t” about faith or being Kirk\u2019s friend before taking shots at Turning Point and other conservative figures slated to be at the event.<\/p>\n

“Matt Shaw is telling you something,” Bernstein said on his podcast<\/a>. “I don\u2019t want to hear any mealy-mouthed explanations when he\u2019s asked about it. I don\u2019t want him to say, \u2018Oh, well, I\u2019m just his friend, or this is just because of my faith.\u2019 Don\u2019t give me any of that bulls–t. Own it. Own it. That\u2019s all I ask. Embrace it. Be proud of it, Matt Shaw. That\u2019s all I ask, is don\u2019t try to say this isn\u2019t what this is..<\/p>\n

“If you want to go to a gathering that tells me clearly that you are proud to be among hatemongers, homophobes, fascists, racists, flag-waving proud racists. If these are your people and this is your thing, and you want to be at this proudly Nazi-adjacent pep rally, go ahead. Go ahead. Have a day, man. Have a week. Whatever blows your hair back,” Bernstein added.<\/p>\n

“And if you have been given permission to associate the Cubs brand, all things Chicago Cubs, with this lineup of horrible, horrible people, all standing proudly on the wrong side of history. Go ahead. Just don\u2019t pretend you\u2019re not. Don\u2019t try to ameliorate it. Don\u2019t try to soften it. Stick that chin out like it is in the picture, you and your Cubby Blue, and own it.”<\/p>\n

Shaw and Kirk, a Cubs fan, lived in the same apartment complex at one point, and he defended his decision to attend the funeral.<\/p>\n

“My connection with Charlie was through our [Christian] faith,” Shaw said at the time, per the\u00a0Chicago Sun-Times<\/u><\/a>. “And that\u2019s something that drives me every day, the reason why I\u2019m able to do what I do every day, and that\u2019s something I\u2019m extremely thankful for. I know without my faith and without the many blessings I\u2019ve been given in my life, that I wouldn\u2019t be here, be able to talk to you guys, able to help this team eventually go and win championships. That\u2019s something I feel really, really blessed about, so whatever backlash comes is OK. I feel strong about my faith and that what was meant to be happened.”<\/p>\n

Other speakers include Vice President J.D. Vance, Fox News Channel’s Jesse Watters and Greg Gutfeld, Erika Kirk, Steve Bannon, Donald Trump Jr., Riley Gaines, and many others.<\/p>\n
