   Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) accused President Joe Biden of violating the   
   United States flag code during a White House pride month event on   
   Saturday.   
      
   Biden spoke from the South Lawn, where he was joined by First Lady Jill   
   Biden, to ring in pride month along with thousands of guests at the White   
   House hosting the largest LGBT pride event in its history. One pride flag   
   was hung vertically in between two American flags hung in the same manner   
   on the presidential residence's facade, known as the South Portico.

   "This is a disgrace," Marshall tweeted Sunday. "Not only is it in breach   
   of US Flag Code, but it's a glaring example of this White Houses'   
   incompetence and insistence on putting their social agenda ahead of   
   patriotism."   
      
   Marshall's office cited U.S. Flag Code §7. (e), which reads: "The flag of   
   the United States of America should be at the center and at the highest   
   point of the group when a number of flags of States or localities or   
   pennants of societies are grouped and displayed from staffs."   
      
   The White House kept the American flag that always flies on the roof of   
   the residence.   
      
   "I won't be lectured on patriotism by someone who voted to overturn an   
   election," Sen. Tina Smith (D-MN) said in response to Marshall's tweet.   
   "Pride is patriotic."   
      
   This comes two days after Biden designated the week beginning Sunday as   
   Flag Week, and declared June 14 Flag Day, per the Congressional resolution   
   approved on August 3, 1949.
