Trump-Republicans are the Modern Confederates: Let us not repeat 150-year old mistakes

Shadow President Trump, Cruz, Hawley, McCarthy, the Qanon congresswomen, etc - are the cultural reincarnations of the civil war confederates the union let off the hook 150 short years ago. We cannot afford to make the same mistakes. And the words of Frederick Douglass are ever more urgent.

If the traitors escape justice, again, they will continue to rise up against our democracy. We MUST stop them. Only arrest, and conviction, will deter these traitors.

Let freedom ring! Let the white bird sing! Let the whole world know that today is a day of reckoning! Let justice flow like rivers from the moutains to the sea! While some of us are slaves, then none of us is truly free!
