“U.S. flags at President-elect Donald Trump’s private Mar-a-Lago club are back to flying at full height,” the AP reports.
“Flags are supposed to fly at half-staff through the end of January out of respect for former President Jimmy Carter, who died on Dec. 29. A large flag on Trump’s property in Palm Beach was initially lowered to half-staff according to protocol but has since been raised in the days after Carter was buried Thursday in his hometown of Plains, Georgia.”
