Flagging Attention: How Half-Staff Flags Are Just Another Government Distraction
Governor Abbott lowers flags to 'honor' flood victims, but the real tragedy is your blind trust in the government.

In a shocking display of what can only be described as 'flag-based virtue signaling,' Governor Greg Abbott has ordered Texas flags to be lowered to half-staff in 'honor' of the victims of the recent catastrophic floods. But let’s be real, folks—this is just another distraction from the real issue: the government’s secret weather control experiments gone horribly wrong.
That’s right, while Abbott wants you to focus on flags, no one’s asking why these floods happened in the first place. Coincidence that this 'natural disaster' occurred right after the Deep State’s latest geoengineering project was exposed by yours truly? I think not. And don’t even get me started on the timing—July 4th? The so-called 'Independence Day'? More like 'Dependence Day,' where we’re all supposed to depend on the government to tell us when to mourn.
And what’s with the arbitrary deadline for raising the flags back up? 'Sunrise on Monday, July 14'? Who decided that? Some unelected bureaucrat in a dimly lit room, no doubt. Meanwhile, the real tragedy here is that no one’s questioning why Camp Mystic—an all-girls camp, by the way—was even allowed to exist near a river known for flash floods. Sounds like a setup to me.
Abbott’s statement is dripping with the usual political platitudes: 'prayers,' 'unity,' 'resolve.' Spare me. If he really cared, he’d be investigating the shady weather manipulation programs instead of playing flag director. And don’t even get me started on the list of 'approved' half-staff occasions. Thirty days for a president? Ten for a vice president? What kind of sick hierarchy is this? Since when do we rank grief?
Wake up, Texas! The flags aren’t at half-staff for the flood victims—they’re at half-staff for your freedom, slowly being drowned by the rising tide of government overreach. And if you believe this was just a 'natural disaster,' well, I’ve got some beachfront property in Waco to sell you.
Stay vigilant, patriots. And keep an eye on those flags—they might just be trying to tell us something. Or, you know, they might just be fabric. But probably not.
