Trump Orders "One Flag" Policy -- Only the American Flag Will Fly at Federal Buildings. No Gay Flags, No BLM Terrorist Flags.
Good Wednesday, friends.
This is a small thing but a good thing.
The headline said that only one flag is permitted. That's not exactly true -- flags to honor POWs and hostages are allowed.
The Trump administration has implemented a "One Flag Policy," restricting government buildings and U.S. embassies from flying flags other than the American flag, with limited exceptions. The move reverses policies under the Biden administration that permitted pride and Black Lives Matter (BLM) flags alongside the Stars and Stripes.
Key Details:
The policy, effective immediately, restricts flag displays at U.S. facilities to the American flag, the POW/MIA emblem, and the Wrongful Detainees Flag.
State Department employees violating the directive face disciplinary action, including potential termination.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio issued the order as part of broader Trump-led initiatives to eliminate "wokeness" in federal operations.
Diving Deeper:
The Trump administration's newly announced "One Flag Policy" underscores its commitment to prioritizing American symbolism in government operations. The policy mandates that U.S. facilities at home and abroad exclusively display the American flag, with exceptions for the POW/MIA and Wrongful Detainees Flags. This decision reverses Biden-era policies that allowed the pride flag and Black Lives Matter banners to fly alongside Old Glory at embassies and other government outposts.
The policy memo, obtained by the Washington Free Beacon, emphasizes unity under the American flag. "The flag of the United States of America unites all Americans under the universal principles of justice, liberty, and democracy," the directive states.
Newly confirmed Secretary of State Marco Rubio issued the order within hours of his swearing-in, signaling the administration's immediate shift in focus. The directive aligns with President Trump's executive orders targeting diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies, which were championed under the Biden administration.
The country has been demoralized by sixty plus years of relentless Marxist propaganda and deliberate balkanization. The Marxists have succeeded to an extent they never could have predicted -- they have a frighteningly large fraction of young men and women no longer sexually attracted to each other and no longer interested in children.
The Marxists have convinced a large swath of people in this country to join their "voluntary human self-extinction" project. They've convinced their cultists that people are too evil to continue existing.
I keep trying to think what a "remoralization" project would look like, apart from simply blocking/defunding the Marxist attack on civilization and its anti-natalist, anti-human agenda. Suggestions welcome.
Oh: Meant to mention, Rubio was confirmed as SecState unanimously.
