MAGA: NFL Team Owners Vote To Ban Kneeling Of Players During The Playing Of Our National Anthem At Gametime

NFL owners have unanimously approved a new national anthem policy that requires players to stand if they are on the field during the performance but gives them the option to remain in the locker room, it was announced Wednesday. The policy subjects teams to a fine if they don’t show respect for the anthem.

NFL owners have unanimously approved a new national anthem policy that requires players to stand if they are on the field during the performance but gives them the option to remain in the locker room if they prefer, it was announced Wednesday.

EDITOR’S NOTE: After two disastrous seasons of record low viewership and a loss of tens of millions of dollars, the NFL team owners have finally remembered that they are Americans who should absolutely require all players and team members of any kind to stand when the National Anthem is being played when they are on the field. That’s great, and now what President Trump should do is immediately revoke the tax-exempt status of the NFL as a corporation. Mission Accomplished. MAGA. 

The policy subjects teams to a fine if a player or any other team personnel do not show respect for the anthem. That includes any attempt to sit or kneel, as dozens of players have done during the past two seasons. Those teams will also have the option to fine any team personnel, including players, for the infraction.

“We want people to be respectful of the national anthem,” commissioner Roger Goodell said. “We want people to stand — that’s all personnel — and make sure they treat this moment in a respectful fashion. That’s something we think we owe. But we were also very sensitive to give players choices.”

All 32 owners approved the policy, which will be part of the NFL’s game operations manual and thus not subject to collective bargaining. The NFL Players Association said in a statement that it will review the policy and “challenge any aspect” that is inconsistent with the CBA.

Some important details remained unclear in the hours after the policy’s approval, including the specific fine that teams would be subject to and also how the league will define respect for the flag.

After spending months in discussions, and another three hours over two days at the league’s spring meetings, owners believe this found a compromise that will end sitting or kneeling with an edict that stops short of requiring every player to stand.

The previous policy required players to be on the field for the anthem but said only that they “should” stand. When then-San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick began kneeling to protest police brutality in 2016, the league had no rule it could use to prevent it. The movement drew increasing criticism from President Donald Trump, as well as many fans, who believed it was a sign of disrespect toward the flag and country.

Owners however had been divided on how to extricate the league from that criticism. Some owners, including the Dallas Cowboys‘ Jerry Jones and the Houston Texans‘ Bob McNair, wanted all players to stand. Others, such as the New York Jets‘ Christopher Johnson, wanted to avoid any appearance of muzzling players.

Even the seemingly simple option of clearing the field prior to the anthem was rejected by some owners who thought it would be interpreted as a mass protest or at least a sign of disrespect.

Earlier this week, the league finalized an $89 million social justice platform with players to help address “some of the underlying issues” that were under protest, said Mark Murphy, the Green Bay Packers‘ president/CEO.

“I think we learned from each other in order to come to a unanimous consensus,” Murphy said. “We also talked a lot about our players. I think when you look back at last fall, it was difficult for all of us within the league. But one of the positives that came out of it was an improved relationship with our players.”

In a statement accompanying the announcement, Goodell said the league wanted to eliminate criticism that suggested the protests were unpatriotic.

“It was unfortunate that on-field protests created a false perception among many that thousands of NFL players were unpatriotic,” Goodell said. “This is not and was never the case.”

Colin Kaepernick and former 49ers safety Eric Reid have both filed collusion cases against the league after failing to find jobs as free agents. source

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Placed On The Highest State Of Alert As Massive Protests In Iran Cause Activation Of Underground ‘Missile Cities’

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Iran is teetering on the brink of collapse with a massive internet blackout sparking fears of a “massacre” and the regime’s “missile cities” on alert.

Iran right now is a nation on the brink of violent regime change as a frustrated people tired of authoritarian rule combined with a terrible economy have taken to rioting in the streets. This is not the first time this has happened in recent years to the terror-supporting state, but this time it looks like it just may happen. But it’s hard to get a true read on what’s going on inside their borders as their internet has been unplugged, making it very hard to get information to the outside world.

“Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Behold, I will break the bow of Elam, the chief of their might.” Jeremiah 49:35 (KJB)

You read many times in your King James Bible about a man named Elam, a son of Shem, whose descendants became the Elamites, and we follow them from Genesis all through the prophets, and right up to the day of Pentecost in Acts 2. According to Isaiah and Jeremiah, both Elam and the Elamites will play a big role at the Second Advent. Where is Elam, you ask? It’s in Iran. In Bible prophecy, the region of Elam – Persia – Iran, different names for the same place, plays a huge role. This is why we keep a closer eye on Iran and Iraq than we do the other Muslim nations, these are the ‘hot spots’ in prophecy. Iran at this moment is rapidly reaching the boiling point of a revolution that now only needs the arrival of a charismatic leader to push it over the edge.

Iran activates ‘missile cities’ over ‘Death to Dictator’ uprising as regime’s blackout sparks fear of ‘massacre’

FROM THE SUN US: As Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei barely clings to power, Donald Trump has warned the US “will get involved” if the mullah regime uses violence to crack down on demonstrators. At least 65 people including nine children have reportedly died amid the carnage which kicked off on December 28 and now marks the greatest challenge the Islamic regime has faced in years. Over 2,300 protesters have also been arrested with the violent demonstrations entering the two-week mark.

As Iranians took to the streets for the 14th consecutive day on Friday they were heard chanting anti-government slogans including: “Death to Khamenei!”

Hundreds of towns including the capital have been plunged into total anarchy – with shocking footage showing streets up in flames and swarms of locals destroying buildings. Trembling authorities have used tear gas to disperse large crowds of furious locals, while US-based Human Rights Activists News Agency has reported gunfire across the country. Iran’s prosecutor-general Mohammad Movahedi Azad warned on Saturday that all protesters would face the death penalty, as he vowed to charge “rioters and terrorists” as “enemies of god”. Top Ayatollah crony and Tehran’s chief prosecutor Ali Salehi has also vowed to use the death penalty on some if they commit acts of vandalism.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has been placed on the highest state of alert and authorities have activated “missile cities” – vast underground complexes packed with ballistic missiles. “We’ll be hitting them very hard where it hurts.”

Threatening to punish the mullahs if they killed protesters, the US president said: “You better not start shooting because we’ll start shooting too.” On Saturday Iran’s army urged citizens to stay alert to thwart what it called “enemy plots” in a desperate bid to blame other countries including the US for the national outrage.

The Ayatollah’s teetering regime has cut off all internet across Iran and plunged the nation into a near total communications blackout. Fears are now mounting that the Islamic Republic is cloaking a bloody crackdown. Iranian Nobel Peace Prize winner Shirin Ebadi said the mullahs may be planning a “massacre under the cover of a sweeping communications blackout”. READ MORE

Iranians took to the streets in new protests to press the biggest movement against the Islamic republic in more than three years, as authorities sustained an internet blackout as part of a crackdown that has left dozens dead. Protests have taken place across Iran for 13 days in a movement sparked by anger over the rising cost of living, with growing calls for the end of the clerical system that has ruled Iran since the 1979 Islamic revolution, which ousted the pro-Western shah.

NTEB PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: Trump Says That Greenland Is America’s Manifest Destiny As Danish Troops Are Ordered To ‘Shoot Invaders On Sight’

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Trump says that Greenland will be his one way or the other but Denmark is not onboard and says that troops have been ordered to shoot on sight

Danish troops must open fire, even without direct orders, if invaders try to capture Greenland by force, Denmark’s Defense Ministry said as the US weighs military action to annex the land. The ministry confirmed Wednesday that soldiers are required to uphold a Cold War-era rule to “immediately take up the fight” against any foreign force threatening Danish territory, local Berlingske reported. Donald Trump said last night that the rules do not apply to him, and will act accordingly.

“Proclaim ye this among the Gentiles; Prepare war, wake up the mighty men, let all the men of war draw near; let them come up:” Joel 3:9 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen slammed the Trump administration’s latest attempts to claim the island as a US territory, saying an attack on the autonomous territory would mark an end to the NATO defense alliance. “If the United States chooses to attack another NATO country militarily, then everything stops,” Frederiksen said. In other news, Trump is also saying that land strikes in Mexico on the “drug cartels” will be starting soon, so brace yourselves for that. Trump was asked by the New York Times if there were any limits on his global powers, Mr. Trump said: “Yeah, there is one thing. My own morality. My own mind. It’s the only thing that can stop me. I don’t need international law” Welcome to Day 2,125 of 15 Days To Flatten The Curve.

The Massive Monroe Correctional Complex In Washington State Just Sent Us An Urgent Email Asking Specifically For King James Bibles For Their Inmates

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

We are sending a thousand King James Bibles to The Massive Monroe Correctional Complex In Washington State through Bibles Behind Bars

The Monroe Correctional Complex is actually made up of 5 incarceration facilities and they are the Washington State Reformatory Unit, Twin Rivers Unit, Sky River Treatment Center, Minimum Security Unit and the Intensive Management Unit. It houses 2,400 inmates across the spectrum all the way from minimum/medium up to maximum security. What they don’t have are King James Bibles, and Chaplain Donghyeok Kim has reached out to us to help him to change that.

“And a vision appeared to Paul in the night; There stood a man of Macedonia, and prayed him, saying, Come over into Macedonia, and help us.” Acts 16:9 (KJB)

When I told Chaplain Kim that we would immediately send him 500 Bibles now, and the other 500 when he needed them, he was overjoyed. Imagine, no red tape, no votes from a ‘selection committee’ or any of that other nonsense. He told us of his need, and we had his request processed within minutes. That’s it. This is the miracle of Bibles Behind Bars, and why we’ve grown to be one of the largest jail and prison ministries in America exclusively supplying the King James Bible in English, and the Reina-Valera Gomez King James Bible in Spanish. Please pray for the work that Chaplain Kim is doing there in Monroe, along with his fellow chaplain, that souls will continue to be saved and that everyone who needs a King James Bible at Monroe Correctional Complex will receive one. Now come help us to keep the supply lines open!

If God has prospered you, please take a moment to click on the donate button to help us in this monumental task of providing King James Bibles, New Testaments, scripture portions, gospel tracts as well as Spanish Bibles to inmates in jails and prisons from Florida to Alaska, and every state in between. We need your prayers, we need your generous financial support, and we need you to stand with us in the closing days of the Church Age. Thank you so very much, TO THE FIGHT!!!
