An image is presented, which appears to be related to the topic of the controversy surrounding the burning of the US flag and the associated legal and constitutional implications. In this context, the article discusses a recent executive order issued by Donald Trump that aims to take prosecutorial action against individuals caught burning the US flag.

France 24 correspondent Charlotte Hughes provides insights into the real-world implications of these developments, shedding light on how they are interpreted and enacted.
