It's that stupid time of the year again when companies, schools,  and the government join in the insanity to promote the LGBTQ community/lifestyle, known as so-called Pride month.

The Los Angeles County leadership is at the forefront of the madness, going all in and mandating that the display of the Progress Pride Flag [PPF] be flown at all fire stations throughout the county throughout the month of June, Britt Mayer reported on X.

BREAKING: LA COUNTY, CA mandates Progress Pride Flag to be flown at all fire stations throughout June 2025.

Mayer noted that the order puts the firehouses in compliance with the LA County Board of Supervisors, which "adopted a flag policy in March 2023" for the Progress Pride Flag to be raised at "facilities displaying the United States and California flag, including fire stations" during Pride month.

In the order sent down to all the firehouses from the LA County Fire Chief Anthony C. Marrone, it states that, from June 1 to June 30, "All Los Angeles County fire department facilities must fly the PPF flag" in "recognition of LGBTQ + Pride month."

Marrone went on to state the board's order shows LA's support for this community amid what the board claimed was "rising anti-LGBTQ+ legislation nationwide."

"I want to be intentional and clear that compliance is not optional at our Department facilities," Mayer read of Marrone's order. "

She wrote in her Substack that:

Per the order, fire captains must ensure PPF display, report damage, and store flags after June, with non-compliance risking discipline. Only U.S., California, and PPF flags are permitted:

Critics argue only U.S. and California flags should fly at government facilities, claiming the PPF prioritizes one group and conflicts with religious values.

Mayer noted that in addition to the county's order, there was an attachment that directs fire chiefs on how to correctly answer questions about why the PPF flag is flying outside their stations, should they be faced with any.

As you can imagine, this attachment uses language like "how it demonstrates the county's support" for this community. Another question directed them to the fact that a "single facility" doesn't have the right to decide what flag to fly, only what comes down from the county.

It is just the latest insanity coming out of the blue state that clung on to the craziness of COVID-19 mandates, forcing kids to stay home, out of playgrounds and beaches, and, instead of being able to keep up with their peers in red states, falling far behind in learning. It is the same state that clung to the COVID madness, forcing perfectly healthy human beings and children to take an experimental shot or lose their jobs or not be allowed to go to school. And lest we forget, it's the same state where counties under Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom forced people to wear masks that did nothing to stop the spread of a virus that everyone was going to get.

Should we really be surprised this state is putting the totalitarian arm around the neck of Californians, once again, who don't want to promote LGBTQ+ insanity?

However, there might be one glimmer of hope nationally for those of us who want this promotion of the LGBTQ community/lifestyle to end, and that is that some of corporate America appears to be ditching its public support of Pride Month after consumers made it costly for them, RedState reported.

Brandon Morse wrote that:

As popular social and political commentator Asmongold found, major businesses that once plastered their logos with the Pride flag the moment June 1 rolled around have kept their logos virtue-signal-free. 

These include 

-Microsoft

-IBM

-Xbox

-Target

-Starbucks

Those last three on the list are especially surprising. Target is one of those brands that's so loud about their participation in Pride that they once offered clothing for "trans kids" to help tuck themselves to appear more like a girl.
