The New York Times:

President Trump delivered a dark and divisive speech at Mount Rushmore, leaning into the culture wars and barely mentioning the pandemic.

Down in the polls and failing to control a raging pandemic, the president cast himself as waging battle against a “new far-left fascism” that imperils American values and seeks to erase history.

Trump was referring to protesters who, as part of a national uprising for racial justice, have defaced and removed Confederate monuments and symbols.

I'd really really love to hear the author's explanation as to why the Hans Christian Anderson mermaid is tagged 'racist fish' and why the Portland elk statue was burned.

If they can't fit either of those things in the narrative of 'Confederate monuments and symbols', then they should get zotted with a taser every time they even contemplate using that phrase.

She looks like the kind of cat that will claw her way up to the higher reaches “wokeness” by having a big bank account to prove just how woke she is over the masses as they scramble below her in complete obscurity and socialist poverty.

That is the “woke” American Dream.

Is it true that Native Americans had thousands of years to develop a common written language and a legal culture capable of recording ownership of property? Instead they seem to have spent the time warring with each other and settling disputes through use of force.

How is it then that immigrants from 1620 on become responsible for these failings? Were these immigrants expected to assimilate into Native American culture? What would that have looked like?

250 have supposedly died of Covid in the last 24 hours. 250 out of 350 million, what crisis?

TED CRUZ to CNN:

Your network is literally arguing to tear down Mount Rushmore.

And claiming that murderous, raping anarchists are a peaceful “street festival.”

Nobody owned that land when the settlers arrived. The indians were nomads. They’d stay in a place until they’d killed off all the game animals, and then move on. The settlers claimed a piece of land, put down roots, enclosed a spring or dug a well, built a home and barn, tilled the soil, grew crops, kept livestock. In civilized areas, improving of a parcel of land confers ownership. Wm. Penn gave settlers 50 acres. All they had to do was improve it with buildings, and work it.

And in many cases they went to war with each other and ran each other off the land.

But in any event, the United States certainly did not erect an entire mountain on that spot as the article suggests.

This is what fake news looks like. No fair minded person listening would have come away with that message.

Wm Penn was one of the few that worked out treaties with the Indians before lands were settled by migrant dreamers

Apparently not wearing a face diaper makes you a racist. Or something.

If protesters all crowded together take masks off just to speak clearly, then what’s wrong with the president doing it in open outdoor air?
