FROM YOUR UPDATE LINK: they were on a loading dock for a week and a day and no one was coming to get them.
UPDATE I: I just spoke with the person at Invesco who found the flags and he thinks both sides are exaggerating a bit. The person claims the majority of the bags with flags in them were near the trash, on a dock, and would have been thrown away. The person thinks it was probably an oversight by the Democrats rather than any nefarious plot against the flag. But the person doesnt believe anyone was coming to get them: The flags were there for a week and a day and no one came looking for them.

Doesn’t really sound to me like BOTH sides are exaggerating.
I think someone is blowing a lot of smoke here, but I’m not sure who.
