Secretary of State Marco Rubio issued the directive, writing: “Only the U.S. flag should be flown or displayed at U.S. facilities,
Both domestically and abroad, as it is a powerful symbol of pride and it is fitting and respectful.” According to Kevin Jennings, CEO of Lambda Legal,
The prohibition of the Pride and other flags is “perry and mean-spirited,” as he told Newsweek. “Flying such flags is just a signal to people that they matter,” he said. No one is harmed.
This is only a narrow-minded diversion from the many more pressing issues facing our country. Any effort to fly the prohibited flags will not be tolerated, according to The Beacon.
