Some people are so fragile. Fox News of course is saying feds have banned non US flags, of course lying to their viewers about what is actually happening.

The One Flag For All Act ensures that the American Flag never gets sidelined for culture wars and political points

then:

Exemptions are made for: Prisoner of War (POW) flags

because obviously to virtue signal about the American military isn't about scoring political points

Did you know that in 2019 the National POW/MIA Flag Act was signed into law, requiring the POW/MIA flag to be flown on certain federal properties, including the U.S. Capitol Building, on all days the U.S. flag is flown?
