He just made that stupid shit up. It was adopted based on the Scottish flag (St. Andrews cross), with connotations of the Scottish rebellions against the English monarch. It’s red white and blue because we’re still Americans, and the stars still represent the member states (13 of them).

And it’s not the actual flag of the Confederacy, but a longer version of the square battle flag.
