Lately, it seems like people are protesting something new every week. The liberals think if they just complain long enough they will get what they want and the sad part is that it’s working.
When it comes House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, it’s not about giving you what you want, it’s about taking away what you have.
Pelosi’s latest scheme is doing just that, taking away a little piece of American history because someone got their feelings hurt.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi is calling for the removal of 11 Confederate statues from the Capitol’s National Statuary Hall Collection.
In a letter sent on Wednesday, Pelosi asked the Joint Committee on the Library — led by Senate Rules and Administration Chairman Roy Blunt, a Missouri Republican, and House Administration Chairwoman Zoe Lofgren, a California Democrat — to direct the Architect of the Capitol to remove the statues of soldiers and officials who represent the Confederacy.
Pelosi specifically mentioned two prominent Confederates — Jefferson Davis and Alexander Stephens — who served as president and vice president of the Confederate States of America, respectively, and who were charged with treason against the United States. Stephens’ statue was given by Georgia and Davis’ by Mississippi.
“While I believe it is imperative that we never forget our history lest we repeat it, I also believe that 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,” Pelosi wrote.
They have already allowed historic statues to be toppled and buildings to be burned so there’s no telling how this could end up.
