Biden’s Pride

Over the weekend, I seethed with anger as I pondered the spectacle of seeing the alphabet soup flag hoisted at the White House above the flag that so many have fought and died for. 

There is growing outrage at Biden and Harris for draping a huge LGBTQ “Pride flag” from the White House in a superior position to two U.S. flags on either side of the central “Pride” flag. 

Sen. Roger Marshall of Kansas expressed his outrage, as have many others. The bottom line, as Sen. Marshall put it, is this: Biden is putting his radical social agenda ahead of patriotism. 

In his remarks at the disgusting event, Biden said we are “a nation of Pride,” which I think is canceling out our being “one nation under God.”

It was revealing that on Biden’s Twitter page, he cropped out the two U.S. flags. Maybe he’s feeling the heat. Or maybe he knew that on his Twitter page the flag he featured would get him more support than American flags.

If you burn an American flag, it’s not a crime. It’s free speech. But if you burn a “Pride” flag, you’re accused of committing a hate crime. 

Looking out at his LGBTQ+ audience Saturday, Biden said, “You’re some of the bravest and most inspiring people I’ve ever known.”

What?! Based on what they do in their bedroom? We’ve gone from, “It’s nobody’s business what I do in my bedroom” to “What I do in private makes me among the most noble people in America, and you must celebrate my behavior!”

As a senator, as vice president and as president, I know Joe Biden has met plenty of active-duty service members and veterans who lost limbs in Afghanistan. 

I know he’s met scores of soldiers who have undergone dozens of surgeries from wounds suffered in Iraq. He met the families of the 13 military personnel who died at the Kabul airport because of his incompetence. 

But the courage of those patriots evidently can’t match that of LGBTQ radicals trying to indoctrinate America’s children into their movement.

Flag Day is coming up. We’ll have to wait and see if the Biden White House puts the “LGBTQ Pride” flag back up. I will proudly fly the Stars and Stripes!
