But often, it’s the behind-the-scenes decisions that cause the most frustration. One such example was the Department of Defense’s (DOD) February 2023 policy that prohibited uniformed servicemembers from participating in the unfurling of the American flag at sporting events.

The DACA program, created by former President Barack Obama through executive order, shields over a million illegal aliens from deportation.
