One day at half staff is more than enough for Carter. This is just another one of Biden's political stunts that embarrasses our nation.

This is not a Biden thing, this is a USA thing. We do this for all former Presidents. Also, this HAS happened before, regardless of what Trump might say.

Mike Kehoe should be ashamed of himself. This is blatant partisanship. Flag protocol has nothing to do with Donald Trump's ego.

One day president-elect trump will be honored with the same lowering of the U.S. flag at half staff. Should proper flag etiquette be out the window for him? I say NO.

NO. NO. NO. FLAGS ARE TO FLY AT HALF-STAFF WHEN A PRESIDENT DIES FOR 30 DAYS!! The rules need to be followed. Shane on Kehoe that he has ordered this. It shows how far up trumps butt he plans to be…we are all in so much trouble.

Putting the flag at full staff would violate flag protocol. Trump needs to learn the meaning of respect.

Absolutely not. All former presidents are afforded the respect of half-staff flags when they pass. This had NOTHING to do with Trump. He needs to stop whining.

I think government spending has gotten out of control and needs over site and their own audit.

The Democrats, since Clinton have talked about doing what DOGE is not doing. Yes, Clinton and Obama did some EO, but always gave more lip service than action. Now we have action from Republicans' and still Democrat lip service.

Horrible what they are doing to people. I don't understand how firing people would take care of fraud and abuse. They are stripping people of their livelihoods and it will come back at us because the government will have to cover their unemployment stipends and we will have many more homeless ppl.

About 14.5% of the US workforce, or 20.2 million people, work in the public sector. This includes state, local, and federal government employees. That's way to many people working at a job that produces nothing.

Maybe you should turn of the news and research. Why pay 5 people to do the job of 1. Why keep lazy employees who don't produce when you can keep highly productive workers and increase there pay. See its called rewarding hard work and punishing lazy people. Hard work does pay off.

Elon is not an elected official, not even a cleared contractor for what he is doing. This sabotages democracy.

Elon is only exposing criminals. He is doing nothing else. Become informed, instead of brainwashed.

While often categorized as a democracy, the United States is more accurately defined as a constitutional federal republic.

Unilateral decisions from the Executive branch cannot go unchecked (on BOTH “sides”). Just like when Biden shouldn’t have bypassed the SC with student loan forgiveness. Democracy is fragile and we cannot lean towards dictatorship.
