Rep. Ilhan Omar, D., Minn., has accused the Trump administration of being "bigoted" amid reports that U.S. embassies have had requests to fly the rainbow Pride flag denied.
June is Pride Month, promoting visibility for the LGBTQ community, and U.S. embassies in Israel, Germany, Brazil, and Latvia made requests to the Trump administration to fly the flag on the official embassy flagpole in honor of Pride. According to NBC News, those requests were denied by the State Department.

So in other words the star and crescent flag will be next to be flown over our embassies.

Why don’t you tell that to your brother Muslim nations? Start with Somalia where you originated.

OK. We'll run one test case by flying the Gay Pride Flag at the American Embassy in Somalia.

Yup. America will fly special flags over our embassies around the World for every special group that has a 'month'. I would like to know which month is STRAIGHT WHITE MALE month. Why the LGBTQ has a 'month' is unfathomable to me ? Just what makes them so special, other than they shove their philosophies in our faces all the time. They can do whatever they want to do, but don't make anyone else part of it. It is OFFENSIVE.

We have one flag for this nation and it’s not a rainbow gay flag. Don’t like it? Too bad.

Gay Pride Month has just been renamed Gay Pride Eternity.
The banner will forever wave - - o'er the land of the intimidated - - and the home of the cowed.

Fly your rainbow flag over the embassy of ANY Muslim country and see how long it stays there. TRY to fly your rainbow flag in any Muslim country and enjoy your time in a cell before they stone you. Ilhan, I sometimes think you are even dumber than Occasionally-Cognizant because any American outside of Minneapolis can see clear through your BS.

Omars only purpose in America and the U.S. congress is to work toward the take down of our country.

And yet her own 'religion' demands that such people be violently murdered.
Ya know, I'm starting to think that Miz 0mar's purpose in Congress is to help destroy the USA from the inside.
And that she is more dangerous to the nation than ten thousand regular jihadis armed with guns, bombs and machetes.

Soon, Omar will insist that our embassies fly the flag of her sexual preference: a pair of rusty scissors against a pink background.

Lets get a pro-Life flag, and badger Congress for a pro-Life month, so we can fly a flag!

And when those same embassies want to fly Christian flags for Christmas and Easter, and nice Jewish flags for Hanukah and other Jewish holy days, I'm sure she will fully support that too (heavy sarcasm intended)!!!!
Once you open that can of worms, you can't close it again!!!

Someone should ask ilhan Omar if she thinks President Trump
hates gays as much as she hates Jews.

Yes indeed. The cult she belongs to has a wonderful record concerning gay people.

There are hundreds of fraternal and social organizations that have flags. They don’t get to fly their flags over US Embassy's in Foreign countries. Only the National Flag of the USA should fly over US Embassies.

Does they gay pride flag fly in ANY Islamic country, Ilhan? From what I've seen the only things that fly are rocks, and occasionally people from tops of buildings.
