He was, but was still was sent out from Europe, not Israel/Palestine. Which I believe makes him European. 😁

Indigenous Peoples Day. (IPD) Someone was threatening to take down the Columbus statue in NY. Austin declared IPD.

The President preempted their parties.

YES! Take back our holidays! Thank you, President Trump! (In Britain, most Mondays off are just referred to as ‘Bank Holidays’)

The KKK? That is weird. Was it because Columbus was said to be Jewish?

BTW, the President has designated the second Monday in October as Columbus Day, not the date per se. It will be like Thanksgiving Day and a National holiday.

>>> The President preempted their parties.

Ahh... so Trump was not establishing it... just re-affirming it.

Hmmm...he seems to be moving it to the 9th, but is he just making Monday the day we observe it, or is it because it is the 2nd Monday in Oct? And reaffirming that, yes, we WILL celebrate Columbus Day.

They didn’t “sponsor” the journey they planned provided the sailors funds provisions and blessings of the Church. Wow this is such anti Hispanic BS Non Plus Ultra!

Viva el senor Don Cristobal!
Que viva la patria mia
Y que vivan las tres carabelas
La Nina, la Pinta, y la Santa Maria
