Trump's 'One Flag Policy' Bans BLM and LGBTQ Flags at U.S. Facilities, Rubio Announces
Jan 22, 2025, 03:02 AM
The Trump administration has implemented a 'One Flag Policy' through the State Department, mandating that only the American flag be displayed at U.S. government facilities both domestically and abroad. This policy, effective immediately, prohibits the display of any other flags, including those associated with movements such as Black Lives Matter and LGBTQ pride, which were previously flown under the Biden administration. The policy was announced by Secretary of State Marco Rubio shortly after his confirmation and swearing-in. Violators of this new policy face disciplinary actions, including potential termination or reassignment. The only exceptions to this rule are the Prisoner of War/Missing in Action (POW/MIA) emblem and the Wrongful Detainees Flag. This move aligns with President Trump's broader initiative to eliminate what he terms 'wokeness' from the American government, as part of a series of executive orders aimed at reshaping federal policies.
