The Trump administration has stopped flying a rainbow flag at the Stonewall National Monument. That's angering activists who see the change as a symbolic swipe at the country’s first national monument to LGBTQ+ history.

First they removed language mentioning trans people, now they removed the rainbow flag and soon the entire monument will be gone. "First they came" and so on and so forth.

“Monument for what, exactly?”

The flag will fly at the next inevitable monument

Coming soon: a display tolling the virtues of the officers whose eyes and ears were offended by deviants during their very important law and order enforcement raids.
