This is another example of something that past Republican presidents didn’t do. The article is right. The DOJ Civil Rights division has been a Leftist hotbed for decades. I remember it taking some conservative controversial positions in the early Reagan Administration but nothing since. The Bushes were very comfortable with a liberal Civil Rights division. Yet another example of Republicans presiding over a massive liberal establishment. Bush would talk conservative sometimes but 90% of the government bureaucracy continued to push radical liberalism. Finally, Trump cleaned out several divisions and the liberal establishment - laughably called “experts” - are bent out of shape about it.
“We’ve never forgiven Mr. Lincoln and his d**n army of Republicans from taking away our slaves. We want them back, one way or another.”
