  Democrats literally put BLM and LGBTQ over America, what a surprise

  …how so? They passed the budget, didn’t they?

    From the article:

    It was one of a handful of provisions Republicans managed to secure in the massive spending bill to roll back what they see as an overbearing “woke” agenda by the Biden administration. Gay rights groups said Democrats successfully blocked dozens of provisions that specifically targeted the LGBT community.

    I fail to see how the op thinks Dems did this, other than they did not block the bill.

  “The ban applies to all State Department buildings and all flags other than a select list that includes the American flag and state, tribal and territorial banners, federal agencies and the POW-MIA flag.”

  This is the way it should be

    You think putting up an LGBTQ flag is because they’re scared of gays?

    The president of the united states does not care about the united states, the only thing he is in control of. I, an actual adult, believe this, because of reasons.

    hur hur slow joe, catchphrase, lets go brandon. Good job free thinker
