Some U.S. embassies still hoisting rainbow flags, despite advisory from Washington

"Since the State Department began rejecting all embassy requests to hoist rainbow flags outside the mission buildings during LGBTQ Pride Month this year, some U.S. diplomats have been finding ways to defy, or at least get around, the new policy.
The facades of the U.S. missions in Seoul and Chennai, India, are partially hidden behind large rainbow flags, while the embassy in New Delhi is aglow in rainbow colored lights. The website for the embassy in Santiago, Chile, shows a video of the chief diplomat raising a rainbow flag last month for the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia.
The Vienna embassy’s website features a photo of a rainbow flag flying below Old Glory on a mast jutting from the building, a statement by Diplomats for Equality and a story about a professor lecturing on the visibility and growth of LGBT rights.

U.S. diplomats in Jerusalem joined a March for Pride and Tolerance, and several ambassadors have tweeted photos of themselves in local Pride parades or standing outside the embassies surrounded by employees holding up letters spelling PRIDE.
“This is a category one insurrection,” said one diplomat, who like others interviewed about the sentiment over the rejections, which were not made in writing, spoke on the condition of anonymity for fear of being fired"

I have no data to support this ... only a hypothesis. But, I'm guessing they didn't raise the rainbow flag at embassies in Iraq, Saudi Arabia, or Pakistan.

Fire whoever defied the request denial and did it anyway.

That diplomat went on to say how deceitful and disrespectful the interview is and who, like others interviewed about the sentiment, were not made in writing and spoke about it on the condition of anonymity especially claiming the picture below is not real.

See how that works

The State Department has always been a leftist department all unto itself.

Apparently virtue signaling is more important than their jobs.

Just another reason Trump is wasting his time pandering to the LGBT constituency.

Insubordination is grounds for immediate dismissal in every other field of employment, it needs to be applied here.

You can tell Trump didn't write on the flag it isn't misspelled.
