Powerline has a whole series about Lincoln and the "Dakota 38". To summarize, the authorities that put down the Dakotas wanted to execute way more than 38 people.

Uh oh. The woke mob must have figured out that Abraham Lincoln was a Republican.

The 38 Sioux who were executed were just any males who happened to be anywhere in the vicinity which the army could lay their hands upon. The average “trial” lasted a grand total of 10 minutes each. This was the largest mass execution in American history.

Just another of the tyrant Lincoln’s multiple crimes. Glad to see some are finally pointing it out.

We could go on to discuss the fact that the Lakota Sioux were starving because the government did not provide the food it promised under the treaty....or that Lincoln refused to pay them the money the federal government promised under the treaty so that they could go out and buy food...or the fact that members of the Lincoln administration corruptly lined their own pockets with land seized from the Lakota and nearby Winnebago who had not even participated in the uprising but who were also ethnically cleansed just cuz by gobbling the land at knockdown prices and immediately flipping it for huge gains.....or we could talk about how the Lakota were starved again while in army concentration camps or how the army made sure to release them a few years later after the harvest season so that they would starve again.

In the late 1850s, my great-grandfather homesteaded a farm in Acton Township Minnesota, the site where the ‘uprising’ started in 1862. The residents called it ‘war’. The massacre of Acton Township residents, including women and children by the Indians began just 3 miles from the farm. The killings were unprovoked. As a child, I would go with my dad to visit the monument of the “Acton Township Massacre”. At the time of the ‘uprising’, murderers were hung, not given parole like they are today in ‘woke’ crime cesspools.

So when the Pilgrim came to America in 1621 weren’t they refugees and shouldn’t they have been welcomed with open arms by the natives?

Everyday the ugly hateful left invents new ways to show their rage against the people who made America great.

The evidence is in and it’s rock solid. Leftists are insane. They should all lose all rights given citizens. If this doesn’t calm them down, remove their citizenship entirely then start deporting them. I hear Northern Canada has quite a bit of room for them to settle down to create their insane version of utopia.

Why doesn’t someone do this to the statue of Lenin in Seattle?

The woke are all about history.
Did you know Lincoln did not recognize even one solitary man as a women?
Even more shocking..neither did any of the founding father up to any modern day president.. until B.O.?
No 5 y/o were taught freaky adult sex in school since before our founding until today.

I take it that all of the vandals are indigenous? If not, they are also colonizers and wherever they happen to be at any moment is stolen land. When will they be moving out?

If they are going after Lincoln, they certainly have a target-rich environment in Illinois.

Here’s the Wikipedia article:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dakota_War_of_1862

The section labeled “War” contains the account of the “trials” and Lincoln’s careful review of each case to winnow out the true murderers from those who merely participated in the battles. The Dakota 38 were not some haphazardly chosen group.

BTW the state of Minnesota has apologized for the mistreatment of the Native Americans. Have the Native Americans reciprocated? Hundreds of settlers were either killed outright (men) or taken captive (women and children). Thirty eight vs. hundreds. Seems like some ex post facto recognition of the wrongs done needs to be extended to the settlers even if it is very late in coming.

It was believed at that time that the tribes went on the warpath due to Confederate agitation from secessionist agents operating through Canada. Everyone forgets the Confederacy had agents all over the West stirring up the tribes at that time.

“There is little doubt that the recent outbreak in the Northwest (Minnesota Uprising) has resulted from the efforts of secession agents operating through Canadian Indians and fur-traders.”—Mr Giddings, US Counsul-general in Canada

From in the book MASSACRES OF THE MOUNTAINS by Dunn Jr.

Yep. Over 300 and Lincoln did not “order” the hangings. That was done by a military court and Lincoln actually commuted the sentences of all but the 38 hanged. Another lie from the “woke” mob.
