Leftists Furious as Governor Greg Abbott Orders Flags Raised to Full Staff in Texas for Trump’s Inauguration, Defying Joe Biden’s Order to Fly Flags Half-Mast

The Great State of Texas has defied the outgoing Biden regime and will be giving President Trump the honor he so richly deserves on Inauguration Day.

As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, former President Jimmy Carter passed away in his Georgia home last month at 100 years old. Following his death, Joe Biden ordered the flags at all federal buildings, grounds, and naval vessels to be flying at half-mast for 30 days, allegedlyith in accordance w the flag code.

A U.S. flag flying at half-staff shows a nation in mourning, which provided undeserved comfort to leftists mourning over Trump’s landslide victory last November. They celebrated this turn of events as a form of ‘karma’ rather than act like normal individuals.

But Texas Governor Greg Abbott was not going to let the Regime and their jealous haters prevail. On Monday, he took a bold step to ensure Old Glory will fly loud and proud in the Lone Star State to welcome Trump back into the White House.

Good for him.

Biden has refused to do the same.

However, right after he is sworn in, President Trump has the power to raise ALL Federal flags to Full Staff...and I hope he does so.

I was planning to fly mine at full staff on the 20th anyway. If anyone said anything, I was just going to take it down and put up my Trump flag at full staff.

Just an aside — January 20th of this year happens to be the federal Monday holiday for Martin Luther King’s birthday.
