This EO is meant to encourage prosecutors to bring cases under the very laws SCOTUS declared unconstitutional in 1989. Those were both 5-4 votes. And the current SCOTUS may be even more lopsided if anything actually ever comes from this performative nonsense from Trump's addled permalate1980s mind.
This Executive Order will be challenged in court, of course, as so many of Trump's EOs have been. www.justsecurity.org/107087/track...
I'll do him one better I will not buy, fly, or honor the American flag again until this moron and his retarded administration is gone.
woke up with a hard on and had no place to put it
Meanwhile, TrumpStein is going to pardon Maxwell!
when dems take over president again- court needs to be expanded to 13! This is also in line with the number of District courts! We need at least a damn non-corrupt SCOTUS!
Trump, once again stomping all over the US constitution. The man was told he could do what he wants from the Supreme Court, aka Trump's court and he believes it.
Not one of these Partisan Conservative Justices deserve an ounce of respect! And they should not be allowed any longer to pollute the sanctity of the Constitution with their own politicized hubris. Term limits. Make court 13 members. Impeach these SCROTUS criminals.
crazy say what he's gaming to prosecute everyone Biden pardoned and here he goes eroding the First Amendment Never Forget The Roberts Supreme Court fueled this monster allowing new heights of ever expanding illegitimacy
But weren't these people going to defend America from woke censorship? They're a bunch of jerks
If you burn a Trump flag, you get deported.
Does defacing count? Because maga does that on a regular basis.
How about wiping 47's ass with the constitution?
First of all I’m not getting anywhere near cf45s ass, but if I was I’d use a Molotov.
I wouldn't object.
Or use him as a Molotov and send him back to his handler.
Only burn MAGA flags during protests.
flag day.
"The Streets of our cities are in turmoil, our universities are filled with students that are rebelling and rioting. Communists are seeking to destroy our Country, and the republic is in danger, yes danger within and without. … without Law and order our nation will not survive.” Adolf Hitler 1932
Henry A. Wallace was President Franklyn D. Roosevelt’s Vice President during WWII, 1941-1945… “The American fascist would prefer not to use violence. His method is to poison the channels of public information. … “ DID DONALD TRUMP REALLY KEEP A COPY OF HITLER'S SPEECHES BY HIS BED? …'ABSOLUTELY!
Yes, but you can r@pe all the little k8ds you want, do illegal dealings & go against the constitution NO.PROBLEM. CHUCK FUMP.
The sad thing is MSM won't share this information. They like to paint any executive order he signs as if it's law
How much time should Trump get for issuing idiotic unconstitutional EOs?
'. . . a flag.' So any flag? So when #MAGAts burn #GayPrideFlag they'll spend a year in prison?
The barking yam yapping about flag burning is more "flood the zone" shit. Executive orders are not laws.
How long for raping children, Donald?
Respect is important which is why he wears those stupid red hats from China.
If you are found guilty on 34 counts of falsifying business records, you get to be president.
Well then shouldn't Kid Rock get a year in Jail for that flag suit he always wears, and every other MAGA pedophile out there who wears flags should get a year in jail. You have to cut up and burn to make clothes. Soooooooo?....
This also bans military retirement for old flags.

Trump’s handlers keep giving him executive orders to sign, keeping him busy to slow the demented rants.

In defiance of the First Amendment, psychopath Donald J. Trump has made burning the American flag a criminal offense with a one-year sentence. You are no longer FREE. #FreedomOfSpeech #FreedomOfConscience RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES, Donald!
It's an executive order, not a law. Flag burning is still legal. Prosecuting someone for it would be the crime.
I'm pretty sure an Executive Order is a Law. That said, it's completely unconstitutional.
It's definitely not. The president can legally order members of the executive branch and the military to do things that are legal, but he cannot legally order American citizens not to do anything legal. We don't have to do what he says because he's supposed to work for us.
We're past "legal" at this point.
Then it's my gun against whomever ignores my rights.
This explains much better than I did.
"If you BURN the flag, it's a year in jail. But, if you wipe your ass with it, every day, like I do, you get to be dictator-for-life."
How about beating a cop with it.? Hate this fucker more and more each day
Fuck Trump.
GOP cares for its base. Why not the Dems? www.baltimoresun.com/2025/03/02/d...
Child rapist says what?? EPSTEIN “Wonderful dream” buddy🤮
Those detention centers aren't going to fill themselves. They're all invested in the private prison system. Bonus money.
The dissenters in the 1989 and follow-on 1990 cases were Rehnqhist, White, Stevens, O'Connor. -Roberts replaced Rehnquist -Barrett replaced RBG replaced White -Kagan replaced Stevens -Alito replaced O'Connor. Among them, only Alito could conceivably vote to uphold a flag burning ban.
Thomas's replacing Marshall is the only conceivable flip from the five justices who voted to strike down the bans. So I'd say this SCOTUS would be 7-2 to strike down any new ban.
So pretty much Trump hopes this SCOTUS will say Texas v Johnson doesn’t apply when foreign nationals burn the flag to scare Americans www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...
This is the First Amendment version of his “invasion” theory of immigration to suspend due process.
Trump and his terrified band of scairdy fascists are trying to get a court to say foreign nationals have fewer First Amendment rights than we Americans who, in Trump’s mind, are too fearful to fully exercise our own.
Trump thinks Americans are frightened snowflakes because that’s what he and his terrified band of scairdy fascists are.
It's always projection with these people.
Well that didn’t take very long
Did you see any foreign national or figurative fighting words?
We should do a mass flag burning. Hundred’s of thousand of people descending on the Washington Monument
Flags are burned by veterans' groups as a respectful way to dispose of tattered and torn ones. That's what I was told when I turned in old flags. Those guys get a year in jail? Trump is such a fucking moron, feeling good today, shooting his stupid mouth off. But MAGA flag underwear? A-OK!
It’s also to get protestors to burn flags
Something that has not been happening and probably will be in protest now bc we will not be ruled by a tyrant!
Trump of all people is whining about Pardons? Bitch please.
It seems September 6 should be burn an American flag day
Executive orders are NOT law.
Is that his respect for freedom of speech?? He is trying to control every thought and action of every American.
Executive orders are not laws. Burn them or burn flags.
So what happens to you if you hug a flag as a publicity stunt?
