Non-paywall version.

I'm sure you bitches would object to this flag being flown at US embassies.

I fully support Biden on this. The only flag that should be flown at US embassies is the American flag.

Yeah, I think we will survive this one. If anything, it is for the best. JFC don't we have bigger fish to fry?

Why yes, I AM now craving a fish fry. Malt vinegar please, only a wee bit of tartar on the side. Many thanks.

It is important to note that

[quote] The prohibition on unapproved flags would only last for the duration of the funding deal, which ends Sept. 30.

I am okay with this to get the legislation passed. I am fairly certain that the next Speaker of the House, Hakeem Jeffries, isn’t going to allow this nonsensical provision to make it into any additional spending bills in 2025.

100% r2.

The only flag that should be flown at any embassy is that of the country. Nothing more, nothing less.

What thought process went into flying the pride flat at embassies anyway?

Unless it's this one!

These colors don’t run

I disagree. You have no idea what it meant to me seeing the US embassy fly the pride flag in my homophobic little shithole. I'll never forget that feeling.

Albania, R9?

I'm confused. Why would the LGBTQ+ flag be flown at an Embassy? Do they also fly flags for Shriners?

Are ace flags acceptable?

R3, you make a great point.

Well, as long as r9 feels warm and fuzzy seeing the LGB flag flying, then we should allow it.

What a pathetic, petty little thing to request as part of a budget. It must have kept Xtians tossing and turning all night long, grinding their teeth.

Joe has bigger issues right now.

^ Like wondering why his food tasters keep dying.

This provision of the funding bill shows how petty Republican are. I’m with R3.

1 thing the Republicans will agree with him regarding...... CUNTS

What will the queers for Palestine think when they see the countries they cape for fucking hate them?

Gays don't fly the flag very much anymore since they introduced the new potpourri flag. Only those who call themselves " queer" because they are young and inventing their latest " I identify as..."social media declaration, or using it for publicity, identify with the flag. It's been adulterated.

It's sad that the repubs will stoop so low but will anyone file an appeal to this law?

Biden is the one who flew that flag to begin with. Why did he fly it only to ban it?

The only flag that should fly is the US flag at our embassies.

The current rainbow flag has been changed to include all kinds of ridiculousness so it has lost its true identity.
