With the expansive program outlined in the 2025 project Approximately half -filled In just six months in the second Trump administration, Trumpied GoP aims to complete the conquest of the American past. This is the logical next step for the movement to make the country “Great again”, and it offers many main opportunities to keep followers of Maga from fresh red meat, while President Trump is to try to divert people from Jeffrey Epstein scandal from scandal scandal Accepting strange constitutions on the roof of the White House.
On Tuesday, the administration announced that the National Park Service will be restored by the statue of Alberto Pooch, a confederation of Alberto Pooch, which was overthrown and removed during George Floida protests in Washington in Washington. Currently, the service is cleaning the statues protesting and plans to return it to their former house near the court system, several blocks from the National Mall in October.
This step that comes two months after Trump has announced that there is Recovery of the Confederation Names In the US, the military bases that have replaced them has personal meaning for resentment. In the midst of the protests, Floida in Washington Trump sent troops to break the demonstration on Lafayet Square near the White House; It has started using this occasion to make an extremely uncomfortable and definitely counter -Christian, the image of yourself that pursues the Bible Like federal officers threatening peaceful participants of the action. Three weeks later, on the night of June, the demonstrators poured pike statues. Trump, which is reported Open fire on protesters On the Lafayet Square – the DC police bells to descend the pike attackers. “These people should be arrested immediately” – he Then wrote on Twitter. “Shame on our country.”
Pike was far from the well -deserved IRA on his behalf. Indeed, activists and propaganda groups tried to remove their statue long before the fog protests appeared. In addition to being a traitor and racist, he was forced to resign his military committee After less than two yearsAfter Native American soldiers were charged with his command of troops. Three years before the Civil War, Pike supported round in his hometown of Arkansas Calling free black citizens from the state, leaking from “evil” “existence among us class free colors.”
Pike was a famous mason, and his statue carries a board with reference to “its 32 years as a sovereign grand commander of the ancient rite of Scottish Freemasonry.” . Place the Confederation monuments in public places to mark the triumph of the apartheid rules in the south after refusing the reconstruction.
The ideological short case over the complex of the Confederation Monument is a central historical detail that is never mentioned in the restoration cross hike. All because it completely undermines the appeals to the mythical cause of the “heritage” on behalf of the former Confederation-in reality, the mass distribution of the Confederation’s memorials served as everyone, but, but-anti-naughty purpose to attract the spread of white cream constitutions in the south. As George Orwell gloriously noted similar projects that started the ruling party in 1984“Whoever controls the past controls the future: who controls the present manages the past.”
That is why the attack is actually an existing story just beginning. When he visited Israel during a summer hiatus, House Speaker Mike Johnson announced his intention to retire “Western shore”, citing occupied territories for the benefit Biblical names of Judea and Samaria– The introduction of back millennia into another ideologically charged version of the last region to support the legitimacy of another modern apartheid regime. . signed the law this spring Governor Sarah Hakabi Sanders, who marked with him on the same junk.)
Also, the revisionist drive of today’s GoP is not limited to the remote section of the past. Trump’s application for whitewashing and memory hole unsuccessful coup was an act of historical erasure, worthy Joseph Stalin-I was crowned last week’s confirmation of Senate Emil Bove, a former official of the Ministry of Justice who fired a group The allegations against the unfortunate, the Senate, Emil Bove, the former representative of the Ministry of Justice who fired a group of prosecutors who charged against Narrestists, for dissenters As a federal appeal judge. And Trump’s National Intelligence Director Trump Tuls Gabard launched a parallel application for replacement of the confusing chronicle of Russian efforts to influence the 2016 elections with A. just such a fable Outraged Trump’s innocence, shortly after the Senate web page, which deals with a project in a Russian company has been cleaned. Trap Prosecutor General QuietPom Bondy, she followed the example that she is forcing a great jury to continue potential criminal cases against … well, history, as far as I can say.
All this frantic rewriting of history will probably not reach the main directive for the creation of mass amnesia when it comes to Trump’s friendship decades and a half friendship with Epstein; Really Bloomberg News‘Jason Leopold reports that Trump’s name was editor Of some of the more than 100,000 documents in the FBI on a pedophile and sexual trade. In the past, there is a funny way to overtake you, even if you are furiously trying to remodel it in your own way.
