Extremist Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) on Wednesday confronted criticism after she joined the right-wing freakout over the U.S. Air Pressure’s celebration of Pleasure Month.
Boebert took offense to this USAF tweet exhibiting the silhouette of a saluting soldier and the rainbow flag which celebrates queer satisfaction.
“We salute one flag and one flag solely in the US of America,” Boebert fumed on Twitter.
“It isn’t the ‘Pleasure’ flag,” she added.
Critics reminded Donald Trump-endorsing Boebert of the quite a few MAGA- and Trump-themed flags usually flown by the previous president’s supporters, together with throughout their Jan. 6 assault on the U.S. Capitol, as seen right here:
Final yr, rapper Tyson James ― who Boebert as soon as promoted on social media ― launched a music video by which he burned Pleasure flags and spray-painted the phrase “abomination” on one in all them.
Trump himself has been accused of disrespecting the Stars and Stripes on a number of events.
