Former center for the New York Jets Nick Mangold is voicing his frustration with the New Jersey town he resides in, after it failed to fly the American flag at half-staff in honor of Charlie Kirk.

In a social media post over the weekend, the 41-year-old took aim at the town of Madison and its elected officials for defying the directive put in place by President Donald Trump.
