Never felt better than to be acquainted with Howard Zinn and an advocate for Project 1619.

President Donald Trump: (12:18)

There’s no better example than the New York Times totally discredited 1619 Project. This project rewrites American history to teach our children that we were founded on the principle of oppression, not freedom. Nothing could be further from the truth. America’s founding set in motion the unstoppable chain of events that abolished slavery, secured civil rights, defeated communism and fascism, and built the most fair, equal, and prosperous nation in human history.


UNSTOPPABLE?  IT took an unbelievably bloody civil war --- and then the 14th and 15th amendments were repealed by refusal to enforce them after 1877 --- it took the Civil Rights movement of the 1960s --- and even that is being reversed by voter suppression and mass incarceration and police lynching ....DAMN --- what a lying sack of shit!!

President Donald Trump: (12:18)
As I said at Mount Rushmore, which they would love to rip down and rip it down fast, that’s never going to happen. Two months ago, the left wing cultural revolution is designed to overthrow the American revolution. As many of you testified today, the left wing rioting and mayhem are the direct result of decades of left wing indoctrination in our schools. It’s gone on far too long. Our children are instructed from propaganda tracks like those of Howard Zinn that try to make students ashamed of their own history. The Left has warped, distorted, and defiled the American story with deceptions, falsehoods, and lies.
