The U.S. diplomatic corps, much of which hails from far-Left Ivy League institutions, has been the most defiant when it comes to obeying POTUS Donald Trump’s policies, as evident by the fact that several American embassies have hoisted the “gay pride” rainbow flag in defiance of the president.
After the Trump administration formally denied requests from multiple United States embassies to hoist the LGBT flag in honor of “Pride Month,” several of them, along with other diplomatic missions, are doing it anyway.

A few high-profile firings in foggy-bottom would get their attention! There HAS to be accountability in all branches of government or we have free-for-all like this!

Fire every last one of the diplomatic corps that won't take orders immediately. I am completely fed up with the LGBT movement forcing themselves on the rest of us and especially our children in schools. We are not bothering you so just leave the rest of us the HELL alone and live your own lives.

Oh please, don’t act surprised- you know who has populated the State Dept for years.

The diplomatic corps is heavily populated by swamp creatures. Clean house. The small vocal band of gay pride militants can make noise, but there is not a vote for Trump anywhere in that group.
I support their equality and acceptance, but am quite tired of their "in my face" militant behavior.

So in the era of rampant fake news, do we KNOW this to be true?

Which embassies? Who is in leadership at each of those? Why are they still on the federal payroll? I remember the Air Controllers being fired by President Reagan. Are you telling me this is not just as dangerous a situation. There are no American Embassies in the United States, because they are stationed all around the globe. Every gay employee (and each family member) is at risk for extortion at the very least, and sedition at the very most. Don't Ask Don't Tell is about to come home to roost.

If true, there needs to be wholesale firings. I'm sure there are some loyal PDT fans that could do those jobs! They'll claim discrimination, but it's disrespect from their boss and a failure to follow orders. It would be interesting, though, to see if they'd fly a 'Right-to'Life' flag.

Not apt to be fake news when the embassies and how they are displaying this flag are described by location….
Always a good idea to read the article.

Very simple, isn't it? Simply fire everyone responsible and release them on the streets back home.

We need more firings! How many of these people are Obama hires? Wouldn't be surprised if some of them go back to the Bushes and Clintons. Trump needs to clean the swamp some more.

I guess if I was the ambassador to Cameroon I'd toss up a rainbow flag and hope for the best LOL

An employee working under any regular company would be terminated for insubordination. The same rule should apply with any government employees paid for by the taxpayers.

If The President denied their request to fly their Rainbow Flag, and they did it anyway, The PRESIDENT should order every one back to the US, including the Ambassador. Then staff it with someone who will follow the orders of the President! Makes sense to me!

HOLD YOUR HORSES, Y'ALL!
Mr. Dougherty here is mistaken. There is no defiance going on.
Perhaps he's been hoodwinked by an equally wrong headline at other sites.
The directive from the administration said the Pride flag could not share the flagpole with the U.S. flag, but it went on to say that raising the Pride flag elsewhere, displaying it differently (like projecting its colors) is all fine and dandy.
As I recall NONE of the examples cited show "defiance," and one widely circulated picture that WOULD be defiant (the Austrian Embassy with the U.S. and the Pride flag on the same pole) was taken in May, before the directive, I'm pretty sure.
Check me on this, but I think the error is in this report.

Technology is advanced enough that we don't need the extremely high number of "diplomats' that we have living their luxurious lives in foreign countries. Reduce the foreign service employment by 90 percent and we still have too many. They're overpaid and underworked, and I know this from firsthand experience.

Please write the POTUS and tell him how this insurrection is not acceptable to the American citizens. The boss has a lot on his plate but letters from the voters mean more to him than a bunch of politicians.

Any embassy flying that rainbow flag does so with the permission of the ambassador. PT should fire them all and replace them.
