Trump admin agrees to fly pride flag at Stonewall National Monument in resolution to lawsuit

The lawsuit challenged the National Park Service's removal of the rainbow flag.

The Trump administration on Monday agreed to fly the rainbow pride flag on federal grounds at the Stonewall National Monument in New York City after the National Park Service's removal of the flag was challenged in a federal lawsuit filed by a coalition of LGBTQ+ advocacy groups.

The Department of the Interior, which oversees NPS, agreed to fly the flag at the site as part of a resolution to the lawsuit filed on Feb. 17 by the Gilbert Baker Foundation, Village Preservation and Equality New York.

The site became the first federal monument dedicated to LGBTQ+ rights in 2016. The pride flag was permanently installed at the site during the Biden administration in 2021, but was removed by NPS in early February.

The move drew sharp criticism from a group of local lawmakers, officials and LGBTQ+ advocates, who rallied at the site on Feb. 12 and installed their own pride flag there to replace the one removed by the government. As the lawsuit moved forward, NPS did not remove the flag that was installed by advocates.

According to court documents, NPS agreed that the pride flag will fly at the site alongside the American flag and the NPS flag.

Use a "pride" flag that's about 1/100 the size of the U.S. flag.

That this bar should be a "national monument" is nothing more than an insult to normal people.

Still, no "normals" (as Kurt Schlichter calls them) are going to visit this place, so might as well let them have their way (there) and walk away from it.

Hey freaks......

Here's my version of Stonewall...  (Stick this up your ass)



I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.  Note:  Posts may also be allegorical in nature, and not literal.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
Why nor declare 'Inspiration Point' a National Monument, too, so people who have normal sex can have one.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

  • Didn't vote for McCain Dole Romney Trump !
No surprise, Trump has caved on gay issues for decades now. Gays in the military (see interview with "NY values"), Trans in his beauty pageant, allowing Bruce Jenner in his Plaza girl's restroom with a camera crew and campaigning in Florida with a gay group behind closed doors.
