(CNN) CNN's Van Jones on Tuesday responded to President Donald Trump's decision to disinvite the Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles from the White House, saying he does not require patriotism lessons from this White House. "I am the first person in my family that was born with all my rights recognized by this government... "[I]t is beyond insulting for people to lecture us about patriotism." Jones was responding to Trump's decision Monday to cancel the Eagles' White House visit over the controversy over standing for the National Anthem at NFL games. "The Philadelphia Eagles are unable to come to the White House with their full team to be celebrated tomorrow," Trump said in a statement Monday.
