RINOs have taken over the Reagan Library. That is worse imo.
I visited Grant’s Farm near St Louis and found the same thing there. Got tired of hearing about slavery in the presentations. Grant’s father-in-law had slaves.
Trump predicted this would happen.
And it will get worse unless . . .
That's what I was thinking. Know your history and let'em have it.
Next target would be Jefferson memorial
I went to a “ghost tour” a few years ago at the Kentucky home of Cassius Clay, a cousin of the more famous Henry Clay.
Instead of a “ghost tour”, I’d call it more of a “Let’s Hate Cassius Clay” night. He owned slaves but, like Henry, was anti-slavery, wanting to phase it out slowly, but this makes no difference to the woke.
Indeed no guarantees. I have visited Mount Vernon and Monticello pre woke so there is that.
They blare all about his slaves over the loudspeaker at Mount Vernon.
Have a trip planned to Charlottesville first week in September. Will be passing on Monticello...
We noticed this when we visited during Hussein’s regime. Lots of gaslighting and hate whitey.
I loved when they talked about how horrible the enslaved people were treated and in the same area you saw the fine bone china that was the property of the enslaved people after they had been sent to Paris by their eeevvvviiiilll masters to learn the culinary arts
Grant didn’t like slavery. The slaves on his farm belonged to his father in law. And grant worked along side them.
Kind of hard to make him a slave holding jerk.
I believe NYS removed the Jefferson Statue from the Legislative chambers.
Doesn’t matter. The private foundations that write the checks dictate the scripts. We visited Charleston and Savannah in January. The guides admitted to us that their scripts were being re-written.
If Grant's wife is to be believed, she owned slaves too.
Grant benefited from slavery and, at one time, owned a slave out-right.
But legend has it “Grant fought to free the slaves.” That will protect his legacy; until it doesn't.
We have visited Monticello twice. On our last visit, about 2 years ago, we decided it would be our last because of the propaganda. Disgusting.
It’s been a big project for the left to tarnish the reputations of the Founding Fathers so that they can say the the Constitution should be scrapped. I loathe these people.
We have been to Mount Vernon 3 times. Happy to say that there has been little of this garbage there. Of course, a lot may have changed since our last visit, which was about 4 years ago.
Correction: We visited last about 4 years ago.
Thank you, DFG:
I am a product of the 1960s/1970s “academical village” of Mr. Jefferson. I live on an old homestead across the James River SE of C’ville. My wife was a C’ville native. We knew the city when it was a delight.
I cannot express how heartsick I am to see this desecration. My liberal daughter who was to take a management position at U.VA. fled to Maine with her doctor husband just because of the woke insanity.
The cancer has metastasized from U.VA: Albemarle County & C’ville City management are all members of the Staatssicherheitsdienst.
Prep and pray for America and the Trump family & never register/give up your guns. The light at the end of the tunnel is a muzzle flash.
Shalom.
I was there 4 years ago also. It was August, and I read the speech at George Washington’s tomb. There was a lady there who was really impressed with the way I read it.
