Soon, Old Glory will have to be born in the land of the free and not merely flying over it.
Congress has passed a proposal to require the federal government to purchase only American flags that have been completely manufactured in the U.S. The U.S. imports millions of American flags from overseas, mostly from China, and the sponsors of the proposal said it’s time for American flags to originate in the country they represent.
Supporters of the proposal, led by Republican Sen. Susan Collins of Maine and Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown of Ohio, said the change is more than just symbolic — they believe it will support American jobs and manufacturers while preserving the nation’s most recognized banner.
Yeah but take the small wins where you can get them. This is a good thing and we should celebrate even if for a short moment.
No. Don’t celebrate performative bullshit. Especially if it’s wrapped in nationalism. Because then all you’ll ever get is performative bullshit wrapped in nationalism. You take this, put it in your pocket, say thanks, and pick the pitch fork right back up.
my grandfather heard that crock of horse shit his whole childhood and when he grew into an adult he told his kids the same lie
am not telling my kids the same lie
shit does not get better because some less than quarter ass solution got implemented
I hope you never have kids if you’re going to tell them they have nothing to look forward to.

Nobody needs foreign propaganda when Congress feeds us literal crumbs as the answer to offshoring. Yay we created 10 jobs. This is the fucking Senate. Not a random Appalachian county council.
“nothing short of a revolutionary war is progress”
There is a wide wide gap between a revolution and requiring companies headquartered here to hire 51 percent of their staff from the US.
