Government Orders Marxist Flag Along with U.S. Flag Flown at All Embassies Around the World

      Earlier this week, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken charged all U.S. embassies and consulates in foreign countries to hoist the flag of the Marxist group, Black Lives Matter on their official government flagpoles around the world. This organization, under the guise of racial equality, is bent on spreading their Communist ideals (“We are trained Marxists,” BLM founders) and to bring down the United States as it has been known. The BLM flag flown at the Athens embassy was reportedly so enormous it covered the United States seal. This action sends a message to the world not “to promote policy objectives to advance racial equity and support for under served communities,” as they stated, but to firmly establish the white house as pro-Marxist.

      This comes after another directive a month ago ordering the LGBT flag flown WITH the stars and stripes. Foreign Policy magazine first reported last month that Blinken gave "blanket authorization" for embassies to fly the LGBT rainbow pride flag, reversing a move from then Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who served under President Trump. Sec. Pompeo directed that no other flags would fly on the same pole as the U.S. flag. Flying the Pride flag at U.S. embassies became a point of contention during the Trump era, when, under Pompeo, the State Department blocked embassies’ requests to fly the flag on the same flagpole as the U.S. banner. Diplomats were told they could display Pride symbols elsewhere in embassies.

      Imagine the message his race and gender-baiting sends to the world. This is the Democrat party’s RACISM DISGUISED AS CONCERN. This is a typical technique the Democrats have used many times. The nation’s top diplomat also released a video to staff in which he said the United States could only be a “credible force for human rights around the world” by confronting “the realities of racism and hatred against blacks and gays here at home.”

      How about to Hispanic-Americans, who have been the largest minority group in America for more than a decade? How about to Asian-Americans, who lead the country in educational and economic achievement, but still see on the news almost nightly video of members of their group being beaten by black suspects? Do not their lives matter?

      Republican lawmakers appalled, now seek to stop the Biden administration’s racialism. Rep. Nicole Malliotakis, a New York Republican, has filed the Stars and Stripes Act of 2021, a bill banning the display of flags featuring political organizations and movements at U.S. diplomatic posts.

      The bill would restrict flag displays to the American flag – which recall represents all Americans – as well as the flag of the host nation; the flag of a U.S. state, territory, or possession; a departmental; the flag of U.S. military forces; or the POW/MIA flag only.

      “The Administration’s directive is an insult to those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our flag and our nation and it is absolutely ridiculous that legislation is needed to correct this issue,” Malliotakis said in a statement. House GOP Conference Chairwoman Elise Stefanik added, “Our beautiful American flag should fly over our U.S. embassies around the world – not the flag of a political organization founded by Marxists.”

      Another sponsor, Texas Congressman Pete Sessions, said in a statement, “The American flag is a physical representation of our nation’s history and intrinsic principles. It is a symbol of hope and opportunity. The only flag that should characterize the United States of America at our embassies overseas is Old Glory. Political flags have no place in exemplifying our nation abroad.”

       “The White House may think the American flag is just another banner to be displayed or replaced in foreign capitals when the mood strikes," said Congressman Issa.(R-CA) "But this is more than untrue. It’s an emphatic misunderstanding of what this nation represents in every corner of the globe. And it fails to appreciate how our country’s symbols have sustained the hopes of the world in the darkest of hours.

      Adding to the discussion, “The American flag is a physical representation of our nation's history and intrinsic principles," said Congressman Sessions(R-TX). "It is a symbol of hope and opportunity. The only flag that should characterize the United States of America at our embassies overseas is Old Glory. Political flags have no place in exemplifying our nation abroad." 

      It seems that Republicans are the only Patriots speaking out on this. It verifies that, for the most part, the entire elected Democrat party has turned towards Marxism. The only time they cite the Constitution is when it suits their needs and then it is THEIR warped version that they espouse. This drift away from the Constitution towards Communist Socialism must be stopped. We may have passed the time where the vote is where to stop it. It may have gone beyond that point now.
