--Two of the three Democrats that Lincoln identified as the champions of slavery—Stephen Douglas and James Buchanan—were Northerners. Only one, Roger Taney, was a Southerner.
--Even after Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation, the Democratic platform in 1864 sought a treaty with the Confederacy that would most likely involve a restoration of slavery.
--After the Civil War, the Democrats overwhelmingly opposed the Thirteenth Amendment freeing the slaves, the Fourteenth Amendment granting equal rights under law, and the Fifteenth Amendment giving blacks the right to vote.
--Jim Crow is entirely a legacy of the Democratic Party. Every segregation law enacted in the South was passed by a Democratic legislature, signed by a Democratic governor, and enforced by Democratic officials.
--After Republicans shut it down in the late nineteenth century, the Ku Klux Klan was revived in the early twentieth century by a progressive Democratic president, Woodrow Wilson, who screened a pro-KKK movie in the White House.
--For decades the Klan served, in the words of progressive historian Eric Foner, as “the domestic terrorist arm of the Democratic Party.” David Duke is an anomaly; virtually every KKK leader for the past 150 years has been a Democrat.
--As historian Ira Katznelson shows, in order to get the New Deal passed, progressive icon Franklin Delano Roosevelt made deals with racist Democrats to block anti-lynching legislation and to exclude African Americans from most New Deal programs.
--More Republicans than Democrats proportionately voted for the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Voting Rights Act of 1965, and the Fair Housing Bill of 1968. The main opposition to the civil rights movement came not from the GOP but from racist Democrats.
So are Democrats who pull down Confederate statues and protest the national anthem admitting the historical sins of their party? Are these acts of honest public disclosure and humble contrition?
Not at all. They are actually part of the Left’s big lie. The big lie is to take the historical crimes of the Democratic Party and project them onto someone else. Let’s blame America. Let’s blame the South. Let’s blame the white man. Let’s blame everyone except the people who actually committed those crimes.
Big City Police are run by ‘Rats. Have been for decades.
Same with the Laws.
The big lie that started all this was Ferguson. And Trayvon.
The thing is, there are bad shoots, they happen all too often. But these weren’t among them.
Dinesh D’Souza says it well.
Opposed to the ‘oppressive’ police in support of BLM terrorists.
Maybe I’m ‘speaking shorthand’ here, but that seems to be the point.
FRegards ....
Read this yesterday........send it to NFLPA ..... History 101.
Even more false is the canard that black men are being shot to death by police at a higher rate than any other population. Using the government’s own statistics as Heather MacDonald did in her WSJ article refutes it entirely.
The entire thing is based on a lie.
Just like a police a officer can be rotten citizen so are many NFL players who have arrest records . Do they blame themselves ,,,,,,,,,,,,,, NO! What a bunch of thugs mostly and now we can protest them by boycott .
Keep in mind, most of these “thugs” wouldn’t get past an 8th grade education if it weren’t for sports, especially football. They’re definitely not the sharpest tools in the shed of gene pool. In other words, they’re STUPID.
So, this notion that all of our Founders were evil slave owners like Andrew Jackson (D) is just plain false.
MAGA!!!!
I have tried to read the column several times now and from every website there is no there there.
Blank page.

Dinesh bringing out the underlying truth as per usual
Then Michael Savage brings up another point, I’m citing the Daily Mail from sept 2016 just from googling “kaepernick girlfriend”. Interesting article follows
I was just asking on Monday morning, where are the wives of the coaches and owners- why are they not better advising these ‘men’?
“According to some reports, it was Colin Kaepernick’s Muslim girlfriend that inspired the 49ers quarterback to sit out the national anthem in protest of those who “are being oppressed.”
--After Republicans shut it down in the late nineteenth century, the Ku Klux Klan was revived in the early twentieth century by a progressive Democratic president, Woodrow Wilson, who screened a pro-KKK movie in the White House.
I suspect the truth is NOT being taught at today's colleges... and certainly NOT in NFL locker rooms...
