President-elect Donald Trump has expressed frustration that flags will be flying at half-staff when he takes office later this month.
US Flags Will Be Flying At Half-Staff On Jan 20

It's an action put in place by President Joe Biden to honor the late President Jimmy Carter, who died Sunday at 100. It's not a timeline that Trump can do anything about until after he takes office. On Sunday, Biden ordered that US flags be flown at half-staff in honor of the late former president. It's an honor that indicates that the country or a state is in mourning.

According to Biden's proclamation, US flags will be lowered for 30 days from Carter's death, until January 28. This means that flags will be at half-staff when Trump takes office on January 20 and for the first week of his administration.
