Original Note:
The US Flag Code states it is customary to fly the US flag at half staff for 30 days following the death of a US President. President Jimmy Carter died on 12/29/24. The 30 days following will include the Trump inauguration, but it is not a sign of disrespect. https://us-flag.net/code/ https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/presidential-actions/2024/12/29/proclamation-announcing-the-death-of-james-earl-carter-jr/ https://libertyflags.com/blogs/half-staff-notifications/half-staff-notification-in-honor-of-president-jimmy-carter https://libertyflags.com/pages/united-states-flag-code https://www.northjersey.com/story/news/2024/12/17/when-will-donald-trump-take-office-when-is-inauguration-day-2025/77043778007/
