FOX News contributor Tomi Lahren slammed for posting fake Colin Kaepernick kneeling photo

Fox News contributor Tomi Lahren is facing social media backlash after posting an edited picture of Colin Kaepernick kneeling in front of World War II soldiers in front of D-Day landings.

She posted the image on Thursday with the accompanying caption “food for thought.” to mock Kaepernick’s “GQ Citizen of the Year” title.

Several people fired back at her on Twitter saying things like “He’s done more for America than you have” and “The only thing that upsets me more than those that co-opt our flag and anthem are those that exploit my family's sacrifice and service for their political agenda. You should be ashamed.”

Lahren has repeatedly attacked Kaepernick and other players that take a knee during the national anthem to protest racial inequality and police brutality.

She has yet to respond to the backlash surrounding her latest tweet.
