Iowa leader says it will defy governor's order to fly flags at half-staff

The chairman of the board of supervisors in Johnson County, Iowa, said the county will defy an order from state Gov. Kim Reynolds to fly flags at half-staff in memory of Kirk.

The chairman, Jon Green, said in a post on Facebook last night that Kirk did not encourage inclusivity.

Green said he made the decision under his own authority.

“Any blowback belongs to me alone, and I accept that,” he said in an interview with NBC News today.

Green said he made the decision to fly county flags at half staff in mourning for Minnesota Rep. Melissa Hortman in June, after she was killed in a politically motivated assassination, criticizing the governor because she “said nothing” of the incident.
