Bush and President Joe Biden, along with a bipartisan group of high-profile individuals and politicians, ranging from Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh to Rachel Maddow to even Former National Security Advisor John Bolton.

The U.S. Coast Guard has released an official statement and a service memorandum by Acting Commandant of the Coast Guard, Adm. Kevin E. Lunday, titled “COAST GUARD POLICY AND LAWFUL ORDER PROHIBITING DIVISIVE OR
HATE SYMBOLS AND FLAGS” which reidentifies symbols like the swastika, noose, or “any other symbols or flags co-opted or adopted by hate-based groups as representations of supremacy, racial or religious intolerance, anti-semitism, or any other improper bias,” as hate symbols, which are prohibited and their display punishable under the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) by the U.S. Coast Guard.
This announcement and memorandum follows several articles and reports earlier today about a Commandant Instruction regarding “Harassing Behavior Prevention, Response, and Accountability” (COMDTINST 5350.6A), which was supposed to go into effect December, and appeared to downgrade symbols like the swastika and noose to “potentially divisive” instead of hate symbols, which was their previous designation under the U.S. Coast Guard Civil Rights Manual (COMDTINST M5350.4E).

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky gave a somber address to the nation this morning from outside the Presidential Office in Kyiv, reminiscent of his speech the morning of the Russian invasion in February 2022, stating that Ukraine is now facing “one of the most difficult moments in its history,” adding that Ukraine has “a very difficult choice: either loss of dignity, or the risk of losing a key partner [the United States]. Either the difficult 28-points, or an extremely difficult winter, the most difficult, and further risks. A life without freedom, without dignity, without justice, and believing someone who has already attacked us twice.”
