BREAKING UPDATE: Washington Nationals exec placed on leave after admitting to blacklisting Christian player from social media, surveilling fans: OMG

Following Tuesday's undercover report, it was revealed on Wednesday that Hudson had been placed on leave. In a message to an undercover journalist, he wrote, "I’m on leave right now - taking it day by day. They’ve been top notch in terms of support."

Hudson, speaking on Williams, said, "He is very Catholic," and noted how the Los Angeles Dodgers had an anti-Catholic drag group at one of their Pride Nights in recent years, which had received widespread backlash due to their dressing as nuns and using a crucifix in their performances.

Williams had criticized the Dodgers for hosting the drag group Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence for its 2023 Pride Night. Williams told Bishop Robert Barron in 2025 about the move, "Baseball stadiums should be a place where everyone feels welcomed, like 100%. We should all feel welcomed there. But that was clearly against one certain religion. If you don’t draw the line in the sand, who’s gonna do it?"

Hudson said, "The Dodgers had a group out to the stadium who were drag queens who sometimes dressed up as nuns. [Williams] went on like a social media, like, 'this is wrong, this is my religion, you all are mocking it.'" Hudson said that because Williams spoke out, "we don’t use him" for social media campaigns.

Hudson also revealed that anyone who goes to a Nats game is being tracked by officials on the team. "If you ever come to a Nats game, there is someone on our team who’s responsible for figuring out everything about you, given your purchasing habits, what teams you come to when the Nats play, like what teams you come, and assigning you into a bucket of people and then catering content to you." He said that if fans are accepting cookies, "we’re getting your, a plethora of your Google history."

Hudson said he would describe himself as being "very far-left leaning," saying he has a "join the Communist Party" poster in his kitchen. He said he would "love to find ways" to integrate the idea into baseball, saying that something like every home run being a $100 donation is "communism, you know what I mean, that’s redistributing someone’s wealth." He added, "I hope we get there."

He said he people say "I don’t wanna think about that sh*t when they come to baseball games," however, "if you’re a sports fan, and we p*ss you off, where else are you gonna go? Are you gonna drive past us from Virginia to go to Baltimore? … either way, I don’t give a sh*t."

He also said that there are meetings set aside for only LGBTQ and women’s meetings. "If you don’t identify as a member of the LGBTQIA+ population, you shouldn’t be at this specific meeting."

Alex Stein, who was hosting On The Inside in James O’Keefe’s place on Tuesday, called Hudson to confront him over the undercover reporting regarding Trevor Williams. Hudson said "that doesn’t sound like something I would say." He added, "The players each are kind og up to their own discretion on how widely they wanna be shared on social.

Hudson was also confronted over his statements on the team collecting data fans who attend games. He said, "no, that’s not possible for us."
