Sadly, not banned, they just can use US funds and paid time to do it. I’m sure some mentally ill workers will volunteer the flags and time to put them up.

The Republican-led text in the 1,012-page package states, “None of the funds appropriated or otherwise made available by this Act may be obligated or expended to fly or display a flag over a facility of the United States Department of State.” All it seems to mean from this is you can't use government funds to fly a flag over an embassy--any flag. Nothing to stop the fairies from buying one themselves and flying it.

Gay pride flags were first flown at U.S. embassies during President Obama’s administration

Even if it were an airtight ban, they’d just do it anyway. Libs only have to obey laws they agree with

I remember when the first homosexual flag flew over our embassy at Tel Aviv.
The effect on the locals was palpable.
Here, instead of the Stars and Stripes, was a new symbol representing who we were,
what we really stood for.
In Israel that was a shock.
I think it also made all the gay Tel Aviv guys blush.
It was like finding out your best friend and most relied-upon ally ha late-stage AIDS.

How many people think the Biden Administration is really going to enforce this “ban”?

I flipped the bird at the US Embassy in Warsaw when I saw them flying the gay flag.

So that’s the win we get? It wasn’t worth the cost of admission.

This is their flag. Flag of the Rainbow-flag Cartel Party, the 1619 nation.
They don’t believe in the United States.
They hold most power after their election fraud coup.

Exactly. Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama was exporting Sodom and Gomorrah sin wherever he could.

My V, AV. my V. A. Hospital was flying a giant, cried flag outside. There are so many transsexuals working inside that they must be hiring these people on purpose.

I have an eye infection. Excuse my last comment. I can’t see all that well, right now.

There should be no flags flying over the US embassies but the United States flag.
