Democrat Tim Kaine’s Wife Denounces Declaration of Independence, Constitution as ‘Fundamental in Enshrining Slavery’
Breitbart ^ | 02/03/2023 | Breccan F. Thies

Posted on 02/03/2023 6:25:32 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Anne Holton, wife of U.S. Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA), denounced the Declaration of Independence and Constitution as “fundamental in enshrining slavery.”

Holton made the comments as Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s (R) new history standards were approved 5-3 by the Commonwealth’s Board of Education, upon which she sits. She said:

To an audience as inclusive as our Virginia is, you cannot reference the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution as ‘remarkable documents’ without also acknowledging that they [are] fundamental in enshrining slavery, and limiting the protections that they provided only to white property-owning men.

By the way, without that stubborn Constitution, we could never have gotten rid of that stench which was slavery.

I'm having a hard time understanding what you are saying here. The US constitution had a clause in it requiring freed slaves to be returned to their masters. (Article IV, Section 2) It prohibited banning the slave trade until 1808.

Lincoln and his Republican allies even tried to amend the US constitution to protect slavery indefinitely. This was the Corwin Amendment.

The US Constitution had nothing to do with eradicating slavery.

The Declaration of Independence and our Constitution were instrumental in showing us the evil of slavery, which went against those very documents.

That is incorrect. The Declaration of Independence listed as one of the causes "he hath excited domestic insurrections amongst us." Speaking specifically about slave rebellions.

The US constitution specifically required escaped slaves to be returned back to their masters.

In 1776, *ALL* states were slave states, and in 1787, the vast majority of states were still slave states.

If all aspects of our country are to be dissolved like the constitution . Bill of rights, etc. Then there can be no constitutional rights that can be violated.
So don’t bake the cake and gas stations can refuse service.
When does the purge start

Remarkable family. “She” the wife of Hillary Clinton’s VP choice, Tim Kaine. “They” the parents of Linwood “Woody” Kaine who according to the AP report from March of 2017, got struck in the knees after cops caught up with the cowardly little scumbag. I enjoyed that part of the report.
“ The younger son of U.S. Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va., was one of six people arrested while protesting against a rally in support of President Donald Trump at the Minnesota state Capitol last weekend.

Linwood Michael “Woody” Kaine of Minneapolis resisted arrest on the Capitol grounds, where police used a chemical irritant and a knee strike while detaining him, according to a police statement.”
Great American family.

There was a reason that it was Founding FATHERS, not Founding PARENTS, who wrote the Declaration of Independence.

Their youngest son was arrested in Minnesota. Felony rioting charge.

It’s worth noting that she’d probably be Second Lady if the election of ‘16 had been successfully stolen.

She would have to disallow any of the amendments. Slavery gone but women’s voting added, for instance.

I invite her to move to a country with no Constitution and then vlog about her life there.

Back in 2016, my middle daughter asked me why that election seemed different from all others she experienced. I pondered a bit and then replied…

“Until now, I never used the “C” word in reference to an actual woman.”

I make another exception with this hag.

You can legitimately make that argument about the Constitution. After all it did have a 3/5ths clause, a fugitive slave clause and had a 20 year grandfather clause for allowing the slave trade to continue.

The Declaration of Independence however had no such language so any claims of “racism” or slavery in the Declaration of Independence are simply false. She needs a history lesson - or to at least READ the Declaration of Independence which she plainly has not done.

Wiki: Many of the patriarchs portrayed in the Bible were from the upper echelons of society, owned slaves, enslaved those in debt to them, bought their fellow citizens’ daughters as concubines, and consistently enslaved foreign men to work on their fields.
