Rep Anna Paulina Luna: “Put Those Damn Flags Away!”

This is a damn shame. The U.S. House of Representatives just passed more massive spending packages for Israel Gaza, Taiwan, and Ukraine.

Our ‘elected leaders’ have massively betrayed the American people yet again for the second time in a week.

They have time to spy on us, they have time and billions for foreign countries, and they celebrate it as if it is a virtue.

Following the passage of $95 billion in foreign aid spending, that will no doubt fund the purchase of lavish yachts and suspect ‘art’, lawmakers could be seen waving Ukrainian flags in the House chamber.

It was then that Anna Paulina Luna spoke out and told the DC lawmakers: “Put those damn flags away. It is a disgrace to display any other flag than the American flag in the House Chamber!”

Take a look at the moment it happened below and the reactions to something that shouldn’t even have to be said inside the halls of representative government:

The Associated Press reports:

With an overwhelming vote, the $61 billion in aid for Ukraine passed in a matter of minutes, a strong showing as American lawmakers race to deliver a fresh round of U.S. support to the war-torn ally.

Many Democrats cheered on the House floor and waved blue-and-yellow flags of Ukraine.

Aid to Israel and the other allies also won approval by healthy margins.

MAGA and America First figures affirmed Rep. Luna’s stern reprimand of the lawmakers waving around foreign flags inside the House of Representatives:

The only flag that should be flying on the floor of the U.S. House is the AMERICAN FLAG! 🇺🇸

I want a Congress that chants “USA” and waves the American flag on the House Floor.

I don’t think that’s too much to ask.

The flag of another country should never be waved on our House floor.

CBS News broke down the Foreign spending:

The first three bills include $60.8 billion to help Ukraine in its war with Russia; $26.4 billion to support Israel, which is fighting Hamas and Iran; and $8.1 billion to counter China in the Indo-Pacific.

Humanitarian aid for Gaza, which Democrats said was necessary for their support, is also included.
