Trump orders flags flown at half-mast in mourning for Judge Ginsburg

President Donald Trump Saturday issued a proclamation directing that flags at the White House and all public buildings and grounds and military facilities be flown at half-staff until the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who died aged 87 of cancer, is interred.

The president also directed that flags be flown at half-staff at all US embassies and other facilities abroad. The proclamation called Ginsburg “a trailblazer, not only in the field of law, but in the history of our country.”
