‘Red Flag Law’ Turncoat Dan Crenshaw Votes With Pelosi to Remove Confederates from DC

‘Republican’ House Rep Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) is choosing to side with Nancy Pelosi and has voted for removing Confederate history. Somehow, he is justifying this by concocting some wacky talking point that many Confederates were Democrats as if somehow that makes it any better to be removing our nation’s heritage, culture, and history.

Many people will be shocked by this news and may not even want to believe that Republican Dan has turned on his own. But read his own words from his Blue-Check verified Facebook Page:

“Republicans won the civil war. That’s our history.

Democrats have a long list of segregationists & KKK members. That’s their history.

I’m glad to help them confront that racist past & voted to remove these Democrat statues from positions of prominence.”

Instead of standing up and fighting to preserve all of our nation’s history, many weak-kneed Republicans have weakly ceded ground using this spineless talking point that somehow it’s a problem with the Democrats, including House Minority leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA). The article posted by Crenshaw himself reads in part:

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is calling for the removal of 11 statues of Confederate leaders from the Capitol building, nine of which were members of the Democratic Party.

The other two Confederates, Edmund Kirby Smith and Robert E. Lee, did not have a documented political affiliation, according to historical accounts. Lee reportedly joined Democrats in opposition to Republicans who “demanded punitive measures against the South” during reconstruction.

“The American people know, these names have to go. These names are white supremacists that said terrible things about our country,” Pelosi said during a press conference on Thursday.

Dan Crenshaw also has a history of turning on the GOP, previously signaling support for ‘Red-Flag’ gun confiscation laws. He claims his version of ‘Red-Flag’ gun confiscation laws would of course be way better than the Democrat’s and therefore the right shouldn’t be angry at him.

The bill to remove Confederates is likely to face opposition in the Senate. This is a developing story. President Trump will likely never sign such a thing. Click here to see the full list of House Reps who want to dismantle our history including other pathetic GOP members as well.
