“Washington DC is named after a slaveholder. The only possible solution is to shut down .gov permanently—anything else is enshrining slavery forever.”

I second the motion!

...The South produced 72% of the total tax revenue for the nation...

Yet , somehow , they lost.

U.S. woke Military bears no resemblance to years gone by Military. Sadly, The motto Duty, Honor, Country has lost it’s impact with the younger folks.

I would ask why did they name a base after President Ford’s dog.

Since some will end up calling it Fort Walker tell anybody who says it that the fort was named after Walker, Texas Ranger.

No mystery, the North had 4 times the manpower advantage over them, and that's before they dragooned the Irish off of the boats to force them into the Union army.

The mystery is why it took the North so long to beat a group 1/4th their size. I would say it was because they were fighting for their homeland, while the North was just following orders.
