"...The portraits are of Robert Hunter of Virginia, House speaker from 1839 to 1841; Howell Cobb of Georgia, who served from 1849-1851; James Orr of South Carolina, in the position from 1857-1859; and Charles Crisp of Georgia, speaker from 1891-1895...."

Elected speaker 26 years after the end of the war, but must be removed.

Next is pretending all slave owners didn't exist. 47 out of 58 years from 1801-1859 had Southern speakers.

Aunt Teefa is on the warpath. Somebody needs to put that crazy broad down.

Because how many people even know who any of them are? I've never seen people be so offended by people they have never heard of before

How about presidents to be removed?

Woodrow Wilson (D) was a racist who reversed Black civil rights in the government.
Franklin D. Roosevelt (D) was a racist who locked up loyal Japanese-American citizens.
John F. Kennedy (D) was a sexist who took advantage of (at least one) a young female White House employee.
Bill Clinton (D) was a sexist who took advantage of a young female White House employee and was probably a rapist.

Why don’t we just tear everything down? Will that satisfy the loony left as they pander for the black vote? That’s who they are doing this for. 12.5% of potential voters are black and the Leftists are willing to destroy our Nation to “earn” their support. Golf clap for the morons on the Left.

She is removing Democrats

With any luck her shoe leather faced portrait will get taken down in the near future.

Crisp was born in 1845 and fought for the CSA. Without even knowing anything else about it, I can guarantee that is enough reason (to Pelosi) to make him a non-person.

Pre-Obama b/c he first half-black president
Pre-Obama b/c he signed LGBTQ+ marriage into law

Just wait until the left starts to go after our Presidents. Over 1/4 our our Presidents were slave owners at some point in their lives. Ironically, even Ulysses S. Grant was a slaveowner until just prior to the Civil War.

Beat me to it. What you bet she doesn’t even know. If she does know, she knows no one in the msm will ask her.

Is going after old leaders / people of power who honored slavery an issue?
This new generation is leading the way and making it clear, they will not tolerate inequality that our past leaders did.

The "left" wants to remove people that we honor with statues and other things because they supported inequality and racism. You say it's just because they want the black vote? Have you thought maybe they're doing it just because it's morally right to do?

Democrats don't need help to get votes from people of color.
The idea that you think evolving our nation, changing things, and standing up for what's right is destroying our nation..

Getting butthurt about pictures is just another example of whiny millennials. Sorry if I don’t share sense that this is some great awakening. For the most part those under the age of 30 are a waste of skin. They have the attention spans of gnats and the physical abilities of 6th grade girls of 40 years ago.

Bottomline is the whiny little ******* can’t survive in the big, bad world do they are going to change it. No awards for being wimps as far as I’m concerned.

Actually its being judgemental, self righteous witch hunters and economic lynch mobs. If they actually understood history, they would realize this is the modern Salem witch trials and McCarthy era. And if you go overseas they look like the Taliban, the Red Chinese in the cultural revolution and the Nazi Brownshirts before WWII. Its an extreme religious cult from which no deviation is allowed.

If they applied those standards of perfection to themselves, they would all be cancelled.

Change for the sake of change isn’t always a great thing. I don’t need whiny millennials tearing up my town in the name of evolving. The next thing whiny liberals will try is to take away our guns because they see it as progress.

Thank you
You said it much better than I ever could.

Their arrogance to think they are right about everything will be the downfall of the social justice nimrods.

In my view, yes it is an issue. No one will defend slavery. That is a horrible part of our nation's history and I don't think you will find many people who would defend the views of most people from 17th and 18th centuries on issues of race.

But you act like this cancels everything good these people might have done. I don't think that is right. But if you really believe that, why don't you share the absolute worst thing you have ever done and we will be sure to judge you and label you as such, regardless of any good things you have ever done or will ever do.

This is great! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_D%27Alesandro_Jr.
"Thomas Ludwig John D'Alesandro Jr. (August 1, 1903 – August 23, 1987) was an American politician who was a U.S. Representative from Maryland's 3rd congressional district (1939–47) and subsequently the mayor of Baltimore, Maryland (1947–59). He was the father of Speaker of the United States House of Representatives Nancy Patricia Pelosi, the first female Speaker of the House, and Thomas D'Alesandro III, also a mayor of Baltimore....

In 2017, conservative commentators noted that in 1948, D'Alesandro dedicated the Stonewall Jackson and Robert E. Lee Monument in his capacity as Mayor of Baltimore, along with the then-Governor of Maryland, William Preston Lane Jr.[7..."

Note that liberals are trying to remove this part from wikipedia.
