Facebook and RWNJ alt-news are on fire with the NFL protests today. RWNJ media liars and political shills are out in force to add their usual bullshit.
Texas governor posts fake news on Jerry Jones and the national anthem
The governor of Texas is praising Cowboys owner Jerry Jones for ordering all Cowboys players to stand for the national anthem, something Jones hasnāt done.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott tweeted, āThank you Jerry Jonesā with a link to an article on a website called UConservative.net. That article is headlined, Cowboys Jerry Jones to Players: āStand For the Anthem or Youāre Off the Teamā.
But as Politifact notes, Jones didnāt say that. Jones said he supports the flag and the Cowboys as an organization support the flag, but he didnāt say that kneeling for the national anthem would get cut.
