Also the man in the video points out that in 1863, Lincoln had an Ohio congressman arrested for speaking out against the war.

Of course he did.

Arresting Congressmen, Arresting News paper editors, arresting pretty much anyone who dared criticize the war, and yet the idea that he would order the arrest of a Supreme Court justice is crazy?

I didn't say crazy. I said unsupported by solid evidence. But where has that ever stopped you in the past?

Again, watch the video and see for yourself.

I said unsupported by solid evidence.

Oh, the evidence is solid. Just because the group-think historians don't want to accept it doesn't make it bad evidence. They don't want to accept it because it makes their darling Lincoln look like a tyrant. That is the only reason why they don't want to accept the testimony of Lincoln's personal body guard and friend, or the references to it by the Mayor of Baltimore in his book.

If this same evidence was applied to Jefferson Davis, they would embrace it vigorously.
