Democrat governor of California On Inauguration Day next year, Gavin Newsom will partially boost the American Flag at the state Capitol to its highest level, joining a number of GOP governors and House Speaker Mike Johnson in the determination. On Wednesday night, Newssom’s hit department confirmed the determination to Fox News Digital. Due to past president Jimmy Carter’s passing on December 29, 2024, the flags flying at half-staff at the U.S. Capitol and other state structures are a tradition. Flags briefly raised to complete level may return to half-staff on Jan. 21 for the majority of the 30-day mourning time, which ends on Jan. 28 – eight times after President-elect Donald Trump will be sworn into office. HONORING TRUMP: National INAUGURATION SPEAKER JOHNSON SAYS FLAGS TO FLY AT FULL-STAFF AT US CAPITOL BUILDING DURING THE National INAUGURATIONAs of Thursday night, Newsom is the only Democrat government to enact the order, which comes as Southeastern California is ravaged by devastating fire. Idaho Governor lately made related decisions. Brad Little, North Dakota Gov. Kelly Armstrong, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey, Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee, Iowa Gov. Texas Governor Kim Reynolds Greg Abbott – all of whom are Republicans. House Speaker Johnson also ordered that colors at the U. S. Capitol fly at full-staff for Trump’s opening on Jan. 20. DESANTIS ORDERS FLAGS AT FULL-STAFF FOR JIMMY CARTERTRUPT’S Commencement Following Carter’s passing, Desantis has criticized the possibility of half-staff flag displays for his opening. Trump wrote on Truth Social on January 3 that” the Democrats are all “giddy” about the possibility of our beautiful American flag being “half tower” during my inauguration. ” They think it’s so great, and are so content about it because, in reality, they don’t like our Country, they simply think about themselves”. Look at what they have done to our once-great America over the past four decades. It’s a complete disaster! In any event, because of the demise of President Jimmy Carter, the Flag perhaps, for the first time ever during an Commencement of a potential President, remain at half mast”, he continued. No American may be happy about it, and no one wants to see this. Let’s see how it plays up. When original President Nixon was sworn in for his second term in 1973, after Nixon had ordered the colors to be lowered following the death of former President Truman, the images were flown at half-staff.
