Secretary of State Antony Blinken Orders LGBT Flags Flown at U.S. Embassies, Will Name Special Envoy for Gay Rights

LGBT activists are cheering Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s announcement that he will reverse an order from President Donald Trump and put up “pride” flags at U.S. Embassies around the world.

OutFront magazine reported on the development:

The Biden administration is off to a hopeful start, as Secretary of State nominee, Antony Blinken, has confirmed a recommitment to LGBTQ rights.

In a memo from July 2020, former Secretary of Defense Mark Esper released a list of flags permitted to be displayed at U.S. military bases. Missing from the list was the LGBTQ pride flag, which Esper compared to the confederate flag. Prior to the ban, embassies raised the flag during pride month on the official embassy flagpole.

During the hearing, Blinken also confirmed that he plans to appoint an envoy for the Human Rights of LGBTQ persons, a position created by Barack Obama in 2015 that wasn’t filled during the Trump presidency.

Blinken claimed violence against that demographic increased while Trump was in office.

“We’ve seen violence directed against LGBTQI people around the world increase,” Blinken said. “And so, I think the United States playing the role that it should be playing in standing up for and defending the rights of LGBTQI people is something that the department is going to take on and take on immediately. Raising the pride flag is one way to outright show LGBTQ solidarity.”

“Biden is the first U.S. president to openly embrace a full range of queer rights, including transgender equality,” OutFront magazine reported.

Here he is folks, I assume we shall see and hear a lot from him for the next four years. OMG.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

PS, Have you been watching the gas prices of late? Keep watching them, me thinks they will be over $3.00/gallon by summer. How about the market, keep an eye on your 401K.  Where’s my $1600 stimulus check, I want to buy something. LOL

  1. When I was active duty JAG, the gay guys used their behavior in order to get out of their contract for service. I guess they’ll have to find another excuse now. Poor things.

  2. I was on Embassy duty as a Cpl and Sgt from early 61 to late 63. Rome and Oslo. With the above program I would not do it today. The Corps and the other services need to tighten up. No, not bullying or using pay grade to harrass people. Using rank to make the units more combat ready and real teams of warriors.

    1. Never did that duty Tad, but I certainly trust your comments 100%. They are there to guard the Embassy not provide photo ops

  3. Where would we be now had President Trump not been elected 4 years ago? Scary thought. Semper Fi

  5. Accepting homosexuality led to accepting transgenderism and will likely lead to accepting pedophilia…Why should Our Lord continue to bless a nation that not only recognizes such sinfulness, but celebrates it?

    1. I keep reminding myself that HE will intercede. And I pray all the the time as HE is the only one who can save us, We are all too stupid to help ourselves.

  6. Hello Gentlemen…I am not gay..I am not associated with the gay rights movement ! The LGBT people have a right to their lifestyle..but, it isn’t anything that I applaud! I’m not gay..I am not a racist! Not perverted and I do believe in my religious convictions! I am still a BELIVER!!

    I believe that that pushing of the Gay flag and the LGBT movement is something that should be left unto those that seek it! There is absolutely no reason to fly flags to commemorate a gay or LGBT thing! This gay thing is a cultural thing that has no business being granted some kind of National recognition..!! This is certainly the wrong kind of message! This is a lifestyle chosen by a “few”…and it infringes on those of us who do not believe in this kind of behavior!

    Biden is a phuking idiot..and so is Anthony Blinken! What a bunch of crap! Idiots!! Well…have a nice day, Gentlemen!! OORAY!! Geronimo!! Remember the days when we had a real Conservative leader! A President like Trump! Jack Moore
