‘Lunatics are running the asylum’: BLM flags flying at US embassies under Biden administration

The Biden administration’s decision to honour Black Lives Matter by flying the “divisive” group’s flag at embassies around the world is evidence the “lunatics are running the asylum,” according to Sky News host Rita Panahi. “This is a divisive, anti-capitalist, anti-police group who were behind a summer of violence in America, and elsewhere in the world, where we saw upwards of $2 billion worth of property damage, we saw hundreds of people bashed, we saw more than 20 people killed in these violent riots and looting,” she said. “Now they’re being honoured by having their flag flown at embassies around the world. “What is going on with the Biden administration? The lunatics are running the asylum.” Secretary of State Antony Blinken authorised US embassies abroad to fly the BLM flag on the anniversary of George Floyd’s death, on 25 May, 2020, and beyond, according to a memo. “Posts are strongly encouraged to make full use of Department and Interagency tools and resources to promote policy objectives to advance racial equity and support for underserved communities throughout the year,” the memo said.
