President Joe Biden's administration will allow US embassies around the world to fly the gay Pride flag on the same flagpole as the American flag, reversing a Trump-era policy.

In 2019, then-Secretary of State Mike Pompeo blocked embassy requests to fly the symbol of support for LBGTQ people on the same pole as the Stars and Stripes.

But now Biden's Secretary of State Anthony Blinken has given approval to fly the flag at diplomatic outposts around the world, according to a confidential cable reviewed by Foreign Policy magazine.

The move comes before May 17, the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia, and before June, which many nations recognize as Gay Pride month.

That should go over great at the Vatican.

But the Pride flag is not inclusive and diverse enough.  We need a more appropriate freak flag to fly.

Maybe the Iranians were onto something with the "Great Satan" thing.

Why stop with the queer flag? Why not the flag that best represents the current Dem Party.

What happens when Conservatives are too willing to abandon their own, and go along with the lefts lies, deceit, destroy America from with in and without (outside) America.  Can Conservatives be convinced to not let the left connive them into playing Lewinskys ? ???????
