Florida’s senior Senator is sponsoring legislation that removes any ambiguity about the display of the American flag.
“The radical left’s woke agenda has been relentless in pushing their destructive ideology. Under the Joe Biden Administration, socially progressive and divisive flags have become the focal point of diplomatic messaging,” says a press release from U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio that promotes a bill that would stop American officials from giving equal time to the LGBTQ+ pride flag and other banners of social consciousness.
The legislation doesn’t ban such flags from display, but it does subordinate them to the stars and stripes.
“Any flag, seal, or emblem that is not the United States flag and is flown, draped, projected, or displayed otherwise as a visual and symbolic representation at a United States diplomatic mission, official residence, or official office, or on an official United States vehicle shall be smaller than the official United States flag; and if flown, may not be displayed higher than or above the United States flag,” reads the Rubio bill.
“This bill seeks to reinforce the importance of our flag, which is more than just a national emblem. Our flag is a testament to the God-given freedoms endowed to every American citizen and we cannot let woke ideology take that sense of national pride from us,” the Senator from South Florida asserted.
Flag displays in the Biden era have been a point of contention for other Florida Republicans as well, including Gov. Ron DeSantis.
In 2023, the Governor griped about the so-called “transgender” flag having “precedence” over the American flag at a White House Pride Celebration, even though the U.S. flag was the most prominently displayed, as it flew overhead even as the Pride flag was side-by-side with the American flag on the balcony.

The only flags that I find offensive are those desecrated with the image of the orange treasonweasel.

It might be nice to let the MAGAs have their confederate battle flag back. That way the rest of us could have the USA flag back.

“Our flag is a testament to the God-given freedoms endowed to every American citizen…”
Ok, the freedoms weren’t “God-given”, rather promised by the Constitution, but the glaringly hypocritical part of that statement is the “freedoms endowed to EVERY American citizen” part. That is if you are white, religious, hetero and male, right? If the Constitution guarantees us the right to burn the flag in protest, which it does, we can certainly fly any fu@&ing flag we choose. Do your job, or shut up and dribble, Marco!

The USA is so gay. No more American flags allowed! MAGA flags only, right?

“Socially progressive” gave women the right to vote, Black people their civil rights (which are being eroded), and financial security (Social Security and Medicare) for elderly Americans.
Rubio is apparently against all of these things, and running to the far right on hatred of others and ignorance to win the MAGAs for re-election to an office he no longer deserves to hold.

I would argue that Black folks took the lead and white progressives joined them. But, we all benefitted.

Absolutely – progressive Black people fought long and hard for basic human rights against murderous Jim Crow laws in mostly southern states.

“the radical left’s woke agenda”? WTF. Who writes this dribble? Little Marco. You don’t get to redefine our language Little Marco. We are proud to be “woke” and it’s only a “radical agenda” if one is an alt right nazi who is against equal rights for all Americans. Little Marco. The Big Orange Turd publicly shamed you and you accepted the truth about your lack of manhood right there on TV for all to savor. Little Marco, Dirty Diaper Don’s little bitch. Ha Ha Ha. Little Marco, public laughing stock. Ha Ha Ha!

Hey Little Napole…, (sorry) Marco. Where was your national flag pride when the Pope visited Miami and all I saw was millions and millions no probably billions and billions of communist Cuba flags flown by your constituents, and not a word from you
It was a sad day, very bad, not good.

Come on Marco, let’s get serious about carrying out the people’s business and legislating like an adult, not a second grader. This anti-woke rhetoric ain’t solving human-kinds serious peoblems.

Each episode of Trump’s “who wants to be my VP” show should end with the hanging of the contestant who gets eliminated that day.
The last person, the one remaining after all others are hung, the one who gets the slot as his VP, that contestant wins a commuted sentence.
The winner still gets hung, but not till 4 years from now.
