Palm Beach County says it won’t follow Gov. DeSantis’ order to fly flags at half-staff to honor Rush Limbaugh


Palm Beach County won’t follow Gov. Ron DeSantis’ order to lower flags at the county courthouse to honor the late conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh, officials said late Tuesday.

The governor ordered the U.S. and Florida state flags to be flown at half-staff Wednesday at Florida’s Capitol, the Palm Beach County courthouse in West Palm Beach and at the town hall in Palm Beach.

Limbaugh, who DeSantis called “America’s anchorman,” died Feb. 17 from lung cancer at age 70. He was a long-time resident of Palm Beach.

Last week, DeSantis said he would order flags lowered at all state offices. Democratic leaders swiftly lashed out at the decision, saying DeSantis had politicized an honor usually reserved for the death of prominent government officials, police officers or firefighters who die in the line of duty, members of the armed forces or tragic events such as the mass shootings at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland and Pulse Nightclub in Orlando.

2. GOOD! Another one!

Seriously, we should not be formally lowering flags on government buildings to half-staff - for rush fucking limbaugh.

We should be celebrating being liberated from his daily toxic stream of hate and prejudice and division. No more poison in the air - at least from him. The head of this vicious broadcasting snake has been cut off!

Have them lower the flags she has control over. How wonderful that Palm Beach County did the same!

Not like we all didn't know it, but this says a lot about D Satan. His heroes are liars and agitators who line their pockets by spreading hatred and Division. Not surprising.
