I will try to avoid that FDR memorial. Many trips to DC but have no idea where it is located. Never looked!
I wish that you had not included a picture of the rotter sitting under his cape. The arrogant rotter was a Commie sympathizer and can be blamed for many of the post WWII problems in Europe. His worship of “Uncle Joe,” resulted in many deaths in Eastern Europe and the USSR.
The Japanese camps were paradise compared to what became the countries behind the “Iron Curtain.”

The FDR statue should have him with his famous cigarette. The PC crowd saw to it that that didn't happen.

Part of the problem at Yalta was that Stalin had troops on the ground in Eastern Europe and the Western powers did not. Also FDR was very eager to get Stalin to commit to fighting Japan, not knowing that the atomic bombs would make Soviet participation unnecessary, or at least less vital. At least he did not agree to let the Soviets have part of Japan to occupy.

Fortunately FDR survived past the November 1944 election or we would have had Henry Wallace at Yalta.
