I need to make some space so I’m filling a new #storage tub to make room for newer #treasures.
The late #TimBowden’s book ‘One Crowded Hour’ returns to storage along with ‘#Traitor - A History of #Betrayal From #BenedictArnold to #DonaldTrump’ & my favourite #DVD ‘#GetCrazy’ - along with a few dozen DVD’s & couple of my old #iPadMini’s & older #iPads I’ve had sitting around #gatheringdust.
Bye guys! I’ll open you up again one day.😢

I can’t wait to flush #Trump down America’s toilet.
For my kid to learn in #history class how America rose up to fight back against him.
For his name to be alongside “#BenedictArnold” and “#Judas”
And for everyone who supports him to pretend they never did.
And for the grifters to go #bankrupt like everything Trump touches.
We deserve better. And we will rise up and achieve that. We rock.

The concept of sedition and traitors in #American history goes back to #BenedictArnold and conflict with a foreign power (in this case, France).
“The Federalists believed that Democratic-Republican criticism of Federalist policies was disloyal and feared that aliens living in the United States would sympathize with the French during a war.”

Why Won’t Our #Media Say #DonaldTrump is #America's Modern-Day #BenedictArnold?
How much more damage are we willing to take? Garland and the #DOJ need to get some answers and share them with the #Americanpeople soon

Excellent post on DailyKos about the Battle of Saratoga and why Zelensky chose it to call out in his speech to congress. Included is some unexpected heroism by history's greatest traitor, Benedict Arnold. #Ukraine #RevolutionaryWar #Saratoga #BenedictArnold #Zelensky

#georgesantos is a petty criminal from #Brazil
#nazis fled to Brazil, #republicans have become the new Nazis with their support of #ChristianNationalism or #klan as they were once called. It is a good fit, you do not see #kevinmccarthy or #TheTurtle #mitchmcconnell condemning the #liar because they #lust for #power to enrich themselves and their #cronies.
#history will look at Republicans of this Era as they do #benedictarnold
West Point to Remove #Confederate #Monuments From Its Campus https://www.nytimes.com/2022/12/24/us/west-point-confederate-symbols.html
Actually shorthand for various commemorations of multiple figures: some for pre-Civil War historical roles, some in spirit of post-war "reconciliation."
Would have been interesting had it compared case of #BenedictArnold, who, after all, tried to betray #WestPoint to the British: plaque acknowledges role as Revolutionary general--but with the name effaced
