Feel good PRE-4TH OF JULY story of the day...

Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey ends Nike deal after cancellation of 'Betsy Ross Flag' sneakers

EXCERPT...
“Arizona’s economy is doing just fine without Nike. We don’t need to suck up to companies that consciously denigrate our nation’s history. And finally, it shouldn’t take a controversy over a shoe for our kids to know who Betsy Ross is. A founding mother. Her story should be taught in all American schools. In the meantime, it’s worth googling her,” he wrote.

Nike claimed the shoe was canceled because it “featured the old version of the American flag.”

While their leftist hacks (tenured university professors, union elem/secondary teachers and many others) will make individual deals with Nike to spite the Guv as well as “signaling” about travel to Georgia.

Feel good story but a grain of sand in the Sonoran desert.

Well, the TRUTH finally comes out. The "patriotic" act of kneeling during the National Anthem was in protest of cops. It is now confirmed the Colon is not patriotic - he hates cops and America. This is PC run amok. The Talking Colon now "owns" NIKE, and NIKE bends to his childishness.
