Major League Baseball umpire Rob Drake deleted a tweet he posted this week, a tweet claiming he would buy an AR-15 while foreshadowing “Cival War” if President Trump were to be impeached.

MLB decided to look into this and now Drake has apologized, sending the following message to ESPN’s Jeff Passan:

Happy Friday morning.
