Summary
Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman, a Republican, has not lowered flags to half-staff at county buildings following former President Jimmy Carter’s death, despite President Biden’s federal order for a 30-day observance.
Blakeman has not provided a reason, drawing criticism from Democratic officials, including legislator Seth Koslow, who called the decision partisan and disrespectful.
Carter, who died at 100 on December 29, will lie in state January 7-9 before a state funeral on January 9.
Nassau County (and neighboring Suffolk County) have always been Nazi hell holes since LI was taken over by Robert Moses
