    Rep. Max Miller announced an amendment Monday to an appropriations bill that would ban funds to purchase any foreign flags and display them in Congress.
    “The halls of Congress belong to America,” Mr. Miller, Ohio Republican, wrote on X. “They should be reserved for flags that embody our great nation.”
    The amendment was sparked by a photo surfacing on X showing Rep. Rashida Tlaib, Michigan Democrat, displaying a Palestinian flag outside her House office. Reports say the flag has been there since at least January.

      It really should be limited to the US Flag and the state/district flags for the representatives.

        But the LGBTQ+ flag is displayed lower.
        How is that "equality?"
        Obvious insult to a movement.

        Nahh, the flag isn’t straight. That’s all. It skews left.

        And yes, pun intended.

          I agree. There are certainly many other ways to show support for one organization or another rather than a flag.

            All of those trash flags should be considered insurrection.

                                Gay Palestinian Ahmad Abu Marhia beheaded in West Bank

                                Palestinian police have arrested a suspect in the killing of a 25-year-old man after his body was found decapitated in the occupied West Bank.

                                LGBTQ groups in Israel, where Ahmad Abu Marhia was seeking asylum, say he had received threats because he was gay.

                                Video of the murder scene in Hebron has spread widely on social media raising speculation about the motive, but police say nothing is confirmed.

                                It is unclear for now how Mr Abu Marhia ended up in the city.

                                LGBTQ groups say he had spent two years in Israel waiting on an asylum claim to flee abroad after receiving death threats from within his community.

                                        If I had any video editing skills, I would love to put Louis Armstrong singing Wonderful World in the background audio…

                                        I love how someone yells “Free Palestine!” to try and get their approval and the fact that this guy then got chased off…
