Fox News reports:
June is Pride Month, promoting visibility for the LGBTQ community, and U.S. embassies in Israel, Germany, Brazil, and Latvia made requests to the Trump administration to fly the flag on the official embassy flagpole in honor of Pride. According to NBC News, those requests were denied by the State Department.
“This is another blatant example of this administration’s bigotry and discrimination against the LGBTQIA+ community,” the Democratic representative tweeted on Monday after hearing about the news.
The President tweeted in regards to Pride Month, calling attention to the fact that we must “recognize the outstanding contributions LGBT people have made.”
According to Fox, President Trump explained that his “administration has launched a global campaign to end the criminalization of homosexuality.”
The Trump administration did not respond to Fox News’ request for comment following reports that they denied permission to the embassies.
Vice President Mike Pence, who has frequently expressed his opposition to gay rights throughout his political career, said he supported the decision not to fly the Pride flag.
“I’m aware that the State Department indicated that on the flagpole of our American embassies, one flag should fly, and that’s the American flag. And I support that,” Pence said.
Take a look at the following report on the backlash Omar face in the following video via the Gateway Pundit.
She is a Muslim. They do not go along with anything associated with LGBTQ .She can not take the stand that she- has. We will see how that works out for her. She might end up pushing up posies! What does the Koran say about this. What would it say about her taking such a stand and making such statements.
Obviously she is not muslim enough. Maybe that is why she left Somalia to begin with, at least,in part. If things go the way some might want them to go, she may be forced to find other work, or go back to Somalia. That would be her having filed illegal tax returns. I think it woould save America a lot of money if the IRS simply had her deported to Somalia on a do not return to America for anything, order. Going back to Somalia might be far worse for her than facing our jails. On the gay issue, she is 2 faced, she makes noises aboout protecting them, while pushing the muslim agenda. It will catch up with her, and it may not be a very kind end for her either. Ragtop needs to go back to Somalia, and let them deal with her. Maybe if she spreads them for the right war lord, he might keep her aroound for awhile.
Ilhan is not a good fit for the U.S.A. A semi-Muslim, anti Jewish country may work for her.It would be a lot easier than her trying to change the great USA into her type of twisted world.
How FUNNY that the very one TRUE God whom they deny exists; Are using his RAINBOW, the symbol of his promise to never destroy the earth with water again! Every time they wave their RAINBOW flag, they are acknowledging and advertising for GOD! WOO-HOO! Too funny! I’m sure God gets a chuckle our of it, too! He DOES have a great sense of humor! He’s sure given the Livid Liberal Left the vapors!
