Does anyone actually care about the death of Jimmy Carter? A month of flags at half-mast? I don't think so. This was done to distract from Trump's victory. If so, it's a fail. It's not like Carter was like Reagan who served 2 terms and actually got some stuff done. Reagan deserved the respect, not so much Carter.
Just going to point out that flags flew at half mast for Reagan for 30 days as well as Bush Sr., which Trump ordered. Carter died on 12/29/2024- it will be 22 days on January 20. The leftards are always going to spin bullshit regardless of the truth ie. celebrating the flags at half mast when Trump takes office is stupid, but what else is new. Personally I think it’s fitting for flags to be at half mast because the old way of doing things deep state style is dead.
Frankly I'm sick of this narrative. For the last week I've seen delusional leftist "influencers" excitedly "report" that Trump et.al. was FURIOUS about this half-staff flag sitch. I got tired of commenting with some form of, "We will be celebrating, we don't care about this bullshit". Now it's being "reported" that red states like Texas and Florida were defiantly putting their flags full staff. If this is the best they can come up with to divide us, they're really losing their mojo
How about everyone with an even numbered license plate fly your flag half mast on Tuesdays, and odd numbered license plates fly them half mast on Wednesdays.
Camp Funston, at Fort Riley, Kansas, during the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic. Media said it originated there on March 4, 1918 and around 500 people got sick within a few days. The media stated that the photo was taken in an emergency hospital ward.
BUT! Trump repeatedly stated that the Spanish flu began in 1917, a year earlier. It has been "fact-checked" by media. What did he know? It almost sounds like there's open-source information for us to dig.
All it takes to change history is 1) control of the masses and 2) time. The photo could be a gulag or a slaughterhouse - like how they framed Auschwitz. We don't know. Almost no one lived long enough to tell the tale anymore.
I see flags at half staff all the time at various banks, office buildings, etc. Most of the time, I don't even know why so I don't even pay attention anymore. The one thing I do know is my flag can finally come out of hibernation in 7 days.
(d) The flag should be displayed on all days, especially on New Year's Day, January 1; Inauguration Day, January 20; Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday, the third Monday in January;15 Lincoln's Birthday, February 12; Washington's Birthday, third Monday in February; Easter Sunday (variable); Mother's Day, second Sunday in May; Armed Forces Day, third Saturday in May; Memorial Day (half-staff until noon), the last Monday in May; Flag Day, June 14; Independence Day, July 4; Labor Day, first Monday in September; Constitution Day, September 17; Columbus Day, second Monday in October; Navy Day, October 27; Veterans Day, November 11; Thanksgiving Day, fourth Thursday in November; Christmas Day, December 25; and such other days as may be proclaimed by the President of the United States; the birthdays of States (date of admission); and on State holidays.
This reminds me of an exception observant Catholics have during Lent. While abstaining from most meats is observed on Fridays, if there's a major feast day, like the Feast of St. Joseph, and it falls on a Friday, the celebration of that feast has priority over the norms of Lenten mortifications and fasts.
In a similar manner, I think it appropriate to skip the half-mast protocol on an inauguration day.

The horror of a president had been essentially dead for years. Times up. Flags up.
I thought he was already dead.
Any president who I can't remember in my lifetime I just assume is past life expectancy and dead
Dude lived to 100. Not sad at all. He did great to make it to 100
Jimmy who? Joe who?
Exactly. Most Americans don't or won't care about these past Presidents.
1/20/25 is a day of rejoicing. It’s the beginning of the return of a great America again.

Be furious who cares
I think that everyone needs to call their governors and have them raise all US flags to full staff. This order from Pedo Joe is bull crap.
This made my day. Abbott is my Governor and he’s a true patriot. Liberals lost and they care about the flag. Give me a break. Just pissed Kamala lost.

We all know they will push to keep the flags up when trump inevitably goes, so they can go fuck themselves.
Neither of these terms fits the advice to fly the flag for 30 days at half-staff for the death of an ex-president.
It is a SUGGESTION in the 'US Flag Code', which carriers no force of law and imposes no requirements on Americans to follow its advice.

Well done Governor Abbott!
The moment that Trump is sworn in he should order all flags to full mast. Let the world now that it is a brand new, joyous day for America.
They’re referring to the same flag the BLM faggots and other protestors have been burning and disrepecting, right?
Fuck off already, commies. Nobody cares about you, your stupid feelings, or anything about you for that matter.

Under-rated comment...
Carter was a communist!
Good to know that FJB still has 7 days of value in it.
Just like when a celebrity dies, I don't have two fucks to rub together over Jimmy's death.
Just a week before America's Golden Age returns
As silly as it seems to me for this to be a concern…
They’ve told us for 100 years what this photo “was”
https://files.catbox.moe/18dll1.webp
But what was it actually? What did they get us to accept through that photo?
Optics definitely matter.
The photo looks like an infirmary. What do they say it was?
I did a reverse image search and found it was in:
Camp Funston, at Fort Riley, Kansas, during the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic. Media said it originated there on March 4, 1918 and around 500 people got sick within a few days. The media stated that the photo was taken in an emergency hospital ward.

How long should the flag be at half-staff? Thirty days after the death of a President or former President
BUT
§ 6. Time and Occasions for Display.
(d) The flag should be displayed on all days, especially on New Year's Day, January 1; Inauguration Day, January 20; Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday, the third Monday in January;15 Lincoln's Birthday, February 12; Washington's Birthday, third Monday in February; Easter Sunday (variable); Mother's Day, second Sunday in May; Armed Forces Day, third Saturday in May; Memorial Day (half-staff until noon), the last Monday in May; Flag Day, June 14; Independence Day, July 4; Labor Day, first Monday in September; Constitution Day, September 17; Columbus Day, second Monday in October; Navy Day, October 27; Veterans Day, November 11; Thanksgiving Day, fourth Thursday in November; Christmas Day, December 25; and such other days as may be proclaimed by the President of the United States; the birthdays of States (date of admission); and on State holidays.
So, we have a 2 to 1 decision here. Flags UP!
Let's go Brandon! (FJB)
Biden is Communist!
Must be a day ending in Y.
Kek.

Should be 4 days for every year served up to 30 days.
Carter would be 16 days. How many days did LBJ, Nixon, and Ford get?
LBJ, Nixon, and Ford got 30 days.
I bet Jimmy Carter would be proud to see it happen.
