Indiana’s Chatterbox Jazz Club Threatens Patron with a Bat for Wearing MAGA Hat -Then Kicks Her Out
Indianapolis’ Chatterbox Jazz Club has come under fire after an explosive video went viral showing a bartender kicking out a patron solely for wearing a red Make America Great Again (MAGA) hat.
The shocking footage, originally posted by Elise Hensley, according to journalist Todd Starnes, and later amplified by social media influencer Jessie Lawrence (Mr. Holistic).
The footage captures an angry bartender aggressively ejecting the patron simply for wearing a MAGA hat.
Bartender: “No, we’re not answering questions. Get out of my bar right now.”
Customer: “Why? Why?”
Bartender: “Because you’re a Trump supporter.”
Customer: “I know, but don’t you guys want our money?”
Bartender: “No, actually we don’t. Get out of my bar right now. You’re not welcome. I’m not messing around, get out of my bar.”
Customer: “Are you serious?”
Bartender: “I’m dead serious. Out.”
Customer: “Because I’m wearing a Trump Hat?”
Bartender: “Yes, that’s why. I don’t care. Get out.”
Bartender: “We can call the police, or you can just leave.”
Customer: “You know that this is like discrimination, right?”
Bartender: “Discrimination? Oh, boohoo. Boo freaking hoo. Get out of my bar.”

Following the outrage, the Chatterbox Jazz Club issued a tone-deaf statement, failing to directly address the bartender’s actions caught on camera.
Instead, they sidestepped the video evidence entirely and played the victim and attempted to paint the MAGA supporter as the aggressor.
The statement reads:
“On Friday, March 14th, a group of individuals visited Chatterbox and intentionally misgendered and harassed a Chatterbox employee, resulting in them being asked to leave by our staff.
They then continued verbally assaulting our patrons and staff, threatened our establishment, and returned to record a video which has now been posted on multiple social media platforms.
The Chatterbox is home to a diverse group of staff and patrons. We do not tolerate dehumanizing or disrespectful language or symbolism in our establishment. We have a right, by law, to refuse service to anyone who disrupts our business.
We look forward to continue being a home for people who love music and appreciate our community. We would also like to state that there has been additional misinformation spread that Sean Baker is in the video. Sean Baker is a beloved musician in our community, not a bartender at Chatterbox.”
