House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) and other Republican members of Congress late July 24 replaced American flags that were taken down and burned by protesters protesting against Israel’s actions against Palestine.

Video footage from Washington showed Mr. Johnson and colleagues saying the Pledge of Allegiance after the flags were raised on top of flagpoles at Union Station, a transportation hub in the nation’s capital.
