The woman boldly declared, “I’m just gonna say it; there are too many American flags. Like they’re on houses; they’re on cars; saw them on couch cushions. Like I don’t know who’s making these American flags, but they’d be making a bloody fortune, and like, you’re the only country I know that does this, like.”
She continued, “The only time I think I’ve ever seen an Australian flag is on the Harbour Bridge,” referring to the iconic bridge in Sydney, Australia. “Could not tell you what it looks like. Like, I know what it’s like, blue, and it’s got some stars on it, but I think I could draw the American flag from memory, like I think I can make a bloody sculpture out of it. That’s how many times I’ve seen it. It’s enough.”
The video quickly caught the attention of Governor Abbott, who responded with a sharp retort: “Go back to Australia.”
Go back to Australia.

In a move to further support American flag manufacturing, Texas GOP Senator Ted Cruz joined forces with several representatives to introduce legislation requiring all American flags displayed on federal property or obtained by federal agencies to be entirely made in the United States from American materials.
Cruz emphasized the importance of producing flags in the United States, stating, “The American flag is a symbol of freedom and hope for Texans, Americans, and the world. We should be making our flags in the Land of the Free…”
