Confederate statues ...the truth spelled out
Pelosi Statement on the Passing of Senator Robert Byrd
"Senator Robert Byrd’s extraordinary life has been shaped by service to his state, love of his country, and commitment to the common good. Throughout his historic career in the House and Senate, he never stopped working to improve the lives of the people of West Virginia. While some simply bore witness to history, Senator Byrd shaped it – and strove to build a brighter future for us all."
That was then. This is now.
Pelosi Calls for Removal of Confederate Statues From Capitol
Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi released the following statement calling on Speaker Ryan to join Democrats in supporting legislation to remove Confederate statues from the Capitol:
-----------------------------
"The halls of Congress are the very heart of our democracy. The statues in the Capitol should embody our highest ideals as Americans, expressing who we are and who we aspire to be as a nation."
"The Confederate statues in the halls of Congress have always been reprehensible. If Republicans are serious about rejecting white supremacy, I call upon Speaker Ryan to join Democrats to remove the Confederate statues from the Capitol immediately."
"There is no room for celebrating the violent bigotry of the men of the Confederacy in the hallowed halls of the United States Capitol or in places of honor across the country."
------------------------------
Why is this suddenly a problem? When she was Speaker why didn't she act then? How is she going to handle Democrat Byrd's statue? Remember he was the one "who shaped history". He certainly did! If the Confederate statues have to come down certainly Byrd's statue, a former member of the KKK, would also have to get the axe.
Interesting to see how this works out.

Someone thought this guy was a Nazi because of his haircut?
And that someone had to be a conservative because as we all know the alt-left is always innocent.
Joshua Witt, 26, of Colorado was attacked by a stranger because his hair resembled that of neo nazis. While getting out of his car to get a milk shake at Steak N' Shake he was attacked, unprovoked by a man who shouted, "You're one of them neo nazis aren't you?' In his defense, he put up his hands and suffered just a stab wound.
