Why TF do we need to fly pride flags at our embassies?

Whoever is operating Joe Biden is an America-hating zealot.

quote:

Congress has prohibited LGBTQ pride flags from being flown at US Embassies via a provision included in the controversial $1.2 trillion spending package that President Biden signed on Saturday.

The White House has since declared its intention to challenge the ban. As soon as the measure was signed, the Biden administration promised to work to have this particular provision removed from the bill, Bloomberg reports.

A White House spokesperson told NBC News: "The Administration fought against the inclusion of this policy and we will continue to work with members of Congress to find an opportunity to repeal it. We were successful in defeating 50+ other policy riders attacking the LGBTQI+ community that Congressional Republicans attempted to insert into the legislation."

Finally we’re getting serious and discussing the important issues facing this country.

For too long we have been talking and debating useless topics with no major importance.

I am happy we are moving in the right direction this election cycle.

Good to see he has his priorities straight. Everything is so peachy that he can focus on this.

If it’s a US embassy, you should fly the US flag. These things aren’t complicated.

If that causes him to veto the CR, it is a classic Brer Rabbit move.

It’s only a matter of time before these radical fools get around to suggesting it’s time to retire the Stars & Stripes altogether because of “the hurtful, raciss, bigoted history” it represents and replacing with a multi-colored banner to represent “the diversity which reflects the true strength of this country”.

Just wait and see.

Why would we allow any flag other than our own and the host country?

Can we thusly adopt the more colorful "Roy G. Biv" Pride Flag as our national emblem? No one will object.

He just cares about the figs yall! That's the only reason he's ramming this through. Doesnt at all have to do with sowing division.
