The flag of American empire is now ...

President Joe Biden set social media ablaze over the weekend by adorning the White House with the latest iteration of the Pride flag, which oddly bears the shape of the Cuban flag. Many were the responses to this display, including accusations that it’s a violation of the United States Flag Code.

Regardless, the White House has made its point. It’s Pride Month and LGBT values, with an emphasis on transgender issues, occupy a preeminent role for the Biden administration. Team Biden promotes the same values abroad as at home.

Addressing the United Nations last year, Secretary of State Antony Blinken stated that “standing up for LGBTQI+ people is a top priority for our administration.” He announced the appointment of a new State Department special envoy to “advance the human rights of LGBQI+ persons” globally. Blinken did not exaggerate. All over the world, U.S. embassies fly Pride flags and promote LGBT as core American values.

Sometimes this gets weird.

[Sometimes? Read on about Kosovo especially. The Left looooooved to complain about American imperialism, especially cultural imperialism when it came to promoting democracy and fighting communism and socialism. This is a new American imperialism, along with abortion, that the Left is waging around the world. — Ed]
