Thanks for posting the link. I found the article very informative.
Republicans always pull these stunts when out of power.
We need to start adding caveats after the BLM logos.
BLM unless you are conservative. BLM unless you are killed by a black person. BLM except when you are a cop. BLM except for black business owners.
Good Lord! You’re spamming on Memorial Day too??

Oh, right, you don’t read posts. You’re a spammer!
No need. It’s a spam site and it is all cut and pasted from elsewhere. OP just posts it as clickbait here to get hits at FReeper expense, and then never replies to any posts. You can just read his warmed-over cut and paste blog right here.

A group of lawmakers has moved to ban U.S. embassies around the world from flying far-left Black Lives Matter flags.
Late last week, several U.S. lawmakers introduced a bill to prevent the federal government from being able to fly the divisive flags at American embassies overseas.
The move follows a recently issued directive from the Biden administration to authorize the embassies to display flags that promote the Marxist BLM organization.
On Tuesday, Foreign Policy reported:
U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken has authorized U.S. embassies around the world to fly Black Lives Matter (BLM) flags and banners, according to an internal cable reviewed by Foreign Policy, as part of the administration’s response to the one-year anniversary of the police murder of George Floyd that sparked international outrage and a nationwide reckoning on systemic racism.
The U.S. State Department cable gives chiefs of missions, who head U.S. embassies and consulates worldwide, “blanket written authorization” to display BLM flags and banners as “appropriate in light of local conditions.”

Joe Biden’s administration wants U.S. embassies to fly gay pride and BLM flags
The news was first reported on Monday by Jack Posobiec at Human Events.
On Friday, House GOP Conference Chair Elise Stefanik (R-NY) and Reps. Nicole Malliotakis (R-NY), Ken Buck (R-CO), Michael Guest (R-MS), Darrell Issa (R-CA), Brian Mast (R-FL), and Pete Sessions (R-TX) introduced the Stars and Stripes Act of 2021.

The bill would allow the following flags to be flown at U.S. embassies:
•The flag of the United States.
•The flag of the country where the diplomatic or consular post is located.
•The flag of a State, territory, or possession of the United States.
•A departmental or secretarial flag.
•A departmental or secretarial flag.
•A flag designed to honor persons who are classified as prisoners of war or missing-in-action.’
The bill restricts what kinds of flags that the Secretary of State can fly at diplomatic and consular posts around the world, according to The Daily Wire.
A press release from the lawmakers highlighted the far-left political agenda of the organization.
“It is inappropriate for President Biden and Secretary Blinken to authorize and encourage the display of inherently political flags that are in no way affiliated with the U.S. Government over American embassies overseas,” Malliotakis said.
“The American flag is a beacon of freedom and hope for oppressed peoples around the world; it should be the primary flag flown above our embassies and that is what my legislation seeks to accomplish.
“The Administration’s directive is an insult to those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our flag and our nation – especially as we head into Memorial Day weekend – and it is absolutely ridiculous that legislation is needed to correct this issue.”

Elise Stefanik said U.S. embassies should not fly ‘the flag of a political organization founded by Marxists’
In supporting Malliotakis’ bill, Stefanik said, “Our beautiful American flag should fly over our U.S. embassies around the world – not .”
“The death of George Floyd opened important discussions surrounding police reform in the United States,” Guest said in a statement.
“However, using United States resources to display a non-government organization flag over United States embassies is not permissible.
“I encourage every American to exercise their First Amendment right to free speech and to continue civil dialogue around this matter.
“However, these discussions should not be aired out on an international stage.
“Our country’s resources should be used to highlight our unity, not our political divisions.”
“The only flag that should characterize the United States of America at our embassies overseas is Old Glory,” Sessions said.
“Political flags have no place in exemplifying our nation abroad.”

See 26. The spammer doesn’t write anything. Just cuts and pastes stuff into his blog, then posts spam here a clickbait on FReepers’ dime, and then never replies to any posts and never donates. Hell of a business model. Use FR donations to promote your blog that you don’t even author, and only post one sentence. The spammer can sod right off.
Hopefully it will pass...
