Definitely a life well lived. Pioneer of the nuclear Navy when he served under Admiral Rickover. Ended Jim Crow in Georgia when he was Governor. Won a Nobel Peace Prize for brokering peace between Israel and Egypt. Thought about alternative energy before nearly anyone. Fought for the expansion of democracy through the Carter Center. Founded and participated in Habitat for Humanity. We would all do well to follow his shining example. It's extremely fortunate that Joe Biden will be presiding over the State Funeral and not Tangeranus. If you see flags that aren't at half mast, insist that this be done. (I already did this twice today)

Yes and the flags should remain lowered until the day after his funeral. I agree that I too am relieved that President Biden will be presiding over his funeral. That in itself is a blessing.

I thought it is for 30 days - past drumpf’s inauguration.

My mistake it’s actually for 30 days after his death. Biden has issued this for the White House and on all public buildings and grounds, all military posts, naval stations and naval vessels.

It’s certainly up to you what you do at your home.
