Nancy Pelosi and other Democratic lawmakers are ramping up calls to remove Confederate statues on display in the halls of Congress, bringing the raging debate over Civil War symbols across the South to Capitol Hill.
Nearly 10 Confederate-era figures are memorialized in the U.S. Capitol, each sponsored by a state. Mississippi displays Jefferson Davis, the president of the Confederacy, in Statuary Hall, for example. Virginia displays Gen. Robert E. Lee in the Capitol’s crypt.
“There is no room for celebrating the violent bigotry of the men of the Confederacy in the hallowed halls of the United States Capitol or in places of honor across the country,” House Minority Leader Pelosi, D-Calif., said Thursday.

This is going to escalate to high levels and quickly. Their end goal is definitely the constitution and declaration. Better step up people or just get ready for battle
ReplyDeleteWhat battle? How should we step up? Please explain
DeleteI think every denomination of our currency has a picture of a slave owner right? So I want all these people to send me their folding money lol
ReplyDeleteWow I guess they aren't trying to win the south anymore.
ReplyDeleteWow we should all take down black people statues now
ReplyDeleteLet's remove all the symbols of oppression starting with Pelosi. People who are profiteering on the ignorance of the left should be removed from office.
ReplyDeleteIt is very sad to destroy History. If we don't learn from history we are doomed to repeat it. Not my words of course. Obama before he left office spent millions on statues. Does anyone know what they are. Also Abama spent taxpayers money in the millions for his presidential museum. Do you think he will leave out slavery.
ReplyDeleteToday: Statues removed connected to those that believed in and died for the Confederacy .
ReplyDeleteTomorrow: Statues connected with slave owners.
What could possibly be the end result?
Completely deleting the Civil War era from any and all American History books.
What was the name of that movement that burned books back in the 30's? Maybe they were just ahead of their time.
"They" aren't trying to win any of America.
ReplyDeleteThis is the deliberate destruction of our Country; its culture and history.
This is being done by a globalist agenda.
Well I think the Memorial to Martin Luther King should be taken down.
ReplyDeleteThese men were all Democrats. Get them out.
ReplyDeleteMeanwhile, ISIS is infiltrating us for the next attack...
ReplyDeleteWhy are statues of history suddenly triggering useful idiots?

ReplyDeleteGuess Woodrow Wilson, LBJ and Robert KKK Byrd are next on her list!
Nothing will change. It's all about division.
ReplyDeleteto damn funny kinda like the taliban destroying all the monuments over in the middle east! so now we have our own taliban here!
ReplyDeleteNeed to remove pelosi please for I'm offended by her always
ReplyDeleteI would be in favor of the old hag placed on display in clay if she would retire and promise to stay home to keep from scaring little children.
ReplyDeleteNotice Pelosi and her ilk don't care about the real concerns for Americans: JOBS, HEALTHCARE, BORDER WALL, and TAX REFORM. She's not doing her job. Typical Democrat.
ReplyDeleteIf they can't control divide and cause disrupsion, terror and fear hum who else is doing this and it seems to be working fine for them too? Think people think you'll figure out the answer.
ReplyDeleteI don't have particularly strong feelings on this issue either way, but I am astounded by how quickly this has become the "issue of the day" when most of these statues have been in place for decades. This does nothing more than advertise how "out of touch" these government officials really are with the needs and concerns of people who go to work, feed their families, and save for their kids' college fund.
ReplyDeleteSo, will they also yank former W. VA Senator Robert Byrd's statue out of there. He was an actual member of the KKK, a ranking officer at that. What do you hear about this-can you say crickets?
ReplyDeleteSomething else must be going on, or about to, that we don't know about yet to have all this distraction over statues.
