Tonight, on The Ezra Levant Show, Ezra asks: What flag do you wave? What flag would you never wave? What flag would you burn — and should you even be allowed to?
Ezra begins by discussing U.S. President Donald Trump's recent executive order criminalizing the burning of the American flag.
"Our great American Flag is the most sacred and cherished symbol of the United States of America, and of American freedom, identity, and strength. Over nearly two-and-a-half centuries, many thousands of American patriots have fought, bled, and died to keep the Stars and Stripes waving proudly," reads the order.
It goes on to clarify that this criminalization will have limitations. Test cases will likely be warranted "to clarify the scope of the First Amendment exceptions in this area."
Ezra points out that the most important part of this order is that it gives the government the right to "deny, prohibit, terminate, or revoke visas, residence permits, naturalization proceedings, and other immigration benefits... whenever there has been an appropriate determination that foreign nationals have engaged in American Flag-desecration activity."
