Presidents regularly order flags to be flown at half-staff to mark certain holidays and the mourning of government officials, but President Biden last week made the rare move of bestowing the honor upon a foreign dignitary.  Biden’s order prescribes flags to be flown at half-staff until sunset on the day of the queen's internment, which is scheduled for next Monday. Biden will also attend Elizabeth’s funeral in London. Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.)
