Original Note:
The tweet correctly quotes the US Flag Code for flags being flown "on staffs." However, the flags pictured are not being flown on staffs, rather vertically from a balcony. Therefore they are not subject to the statute cited in the tweet. https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?path=/prelim@title4/chapter1&edition=prelim
