President Trump will sign an Executive Order mandating prosecution for those who desecrate or burn the American Flag

[ziggy]

President Donald Trump is expected to sign an executive order on Monday cracking down on suspects who desecrate the American flag, including burning it, by mandating they face prosecution, Fox News Digital exclusively learned.

"The American flag is the most sacred and cherished symbol of the United States of America, and desecrating it is uniquely and inherently offensive and provocative. It is a statement of contempt and hostility toward our Nation, and an act used by groups of foreign nationals calculated to intimidate and threaten violence against Americans," a fact sheet on the order provided to Fox News Digital reads.

The executive order will direct the attorney general to prosecute those who violate laws "in ways that involve desecrating the flag," and to pursue litigation that would clarify the scope of the First Amendment as it relates to flag desecration. The order additionally directs Attorney General Pam Bondi to refer flag desecration cases that violate state and local laws to appropriate local authorities.

The American flag has been desecrated by protesters in recent months, as captured in video footage, most notably during anti-Israel protests that rocked U.S. cities and college campuses under the Biden administration and during Trump administration ICE raids to remove illegal aliens from the nation.

He is signing it, as we speak.

There will be challenges, guess from whom, but there is a nice composition on the Supreme Court now.

Abortion...no enumerated Constitutional right...

This is a violation of the First Amendment. The first person prosecuted for this will go to SCOTUS and they will strike this nonsense down.

Let's start with the obvious desecrations.

 

[Jarod]

And MAGA will be distracted from the Epstein files.

 

[Earl]

Have you ever read the first Amendment?View attachment 57203

Yes, and the Supreme Court will revisit the First.

There is no enumerated Constitutional right to burn the American flag.

Just as they ruled that there was no enumerated Constitutional right to an abortion.

That did not stop the murder of millions of unborn infants.

 

[Earl]

And MAGA will be distracted from the Epstein files.

"He was a perfect gentleman."

"There is no list."

Burning a flag is the quintessential essence of expression. Are you really this dumb?

He swung both ways, like you.

The Supremes covered this years ago. But now we have a king who overrules the Courts. In the end, if you buy a flag, it is yours to do with what you want. It is one of many millions sold every year. Just a piece of cloth. Flag colored clothes would be a desecration if you really cared about such things.

Different Supremes. (sic)

No enumerated Constitutional right to burn the flag.

Just like abortion.

It wasn't just a piece of clothe to those who, in part, fought and died for it.

It represents something that you will never understand , Nordy.
