Chairman Allen West's Monday Message for 6.21.21






















Stealing History
"Those who do not remember the past are
condemned to repeat it. - George Santayana
"Those that fail to learn from history are
doomed to repeat it" - Sir Winston Churchill
We are facing a new Marxism in America.
Marxism's original purpose was socioeconomic division and
revolution. Today's Marxism in America is focused on racial
division and it manifests itself in disconcerting premises such
as Critical Race Theory (CRT). I find it interesting that now, in
response to the backlash against CRT, the progressive socialist
left is denigrating people for not wanting history to be taught
about slavery.
What a bunch of bovine excrement! But,
leftists in America do not just want to revise history, but
eliminate it . . . and actually steal it as part of their grand
design, as our aforementioned quotes allude to.
So, let's have that discussion on the history
of slavery from a political party perspective, which is sure to
enrage leftists.
In 1854, the Republican Party was established
- some say in Michigan, others in Wisconsin - on a singular
platform issue. That singular issue was the abolition of slavery.
The first Republican president was Abraham Lincoln, something
that truly upset the Democrat Party, the advocates of slavery. It
was after the Battle of Antietam, and with the counsel of
Frederick Douglass, that President Lincoln issued the
Emancipation Proclamation, freeing the slaves in the Confederate
states. I find it very interesting that it was the cancel culture
leftist mob that tore down the statue of Frederick Douglass in
Rochester, NY, last year. I guess that Black life doesn't matter.
It was President Lincoln, a Republican, who
pushed for the 13th amendment to our Constitution, which ended
slavery in America. That constitutional amendment was vehemently
opposed by the Democrats, along with the 14th and 15th Amendments
giving citizenship and the right to vote to former slaves. As a
matter of fact, the very first Congressional Black Caucus was
Republican, with seven Black Members of the US Senate and House.


This past Saturday was Juneteenth,
remembering June 19, 1865, when Blacks in Texas finally learned
about the Emancipation Proclamation, in Galveston, because of
Union troops. I found it very interesting that the political
Party that opposed ending slavery is now trying to steal history
and take credit. Then again, those who fail to learn from
history, are doomed to repeat it.
Consider this, the largest state Republican
Party in America, the Republican Party of Texas, was established
on Independence Day of 1867, in Houston, by 150 Black men. Yes,
150 Black men who had just learned two years prior that a
Republican president had indeed honored the platform of the
Republican Party and abolished slavery. What was the Democrat
Party's response? Well, they created the Ku Klux Klan to suppress
the vote and intimidate Blacks into not voting.
It's rather comical to hear today's
progressive socialists of the Democrat Party screaming about
voter suppression and "Jim Crow 2.0." After all, the policy we
know as Jim Crow was created and implemented by the Democrat
Party, along with poll taxes and literacy tests. Am I the only
one who finds it absurd to compare having a picture ID to vote
with the well-known voter suppression practices of the Democrat
Party?
How about that little political theater by
ol' Joe Biden in Tulsa, Oklahoma, to remember the murderous rage
of white supremacists and destruction of Black Wall Street?
Funny, Joe forgot to tell everyone that it was the Democrat Party
behind that vicious attack. Nor does Biden remind people that he
eulogized his former Senate colleague, Robert "Grand Wizard KKK"
Byrd from West Virginia. Yeah, the same Joe Biden, Democrat, who
referred to Black men as "predators." And, the same Robert Byrd
who, with other Senate Democrats, participated in the longest
filibuster in US Senate history, against the 1964 Civil Rights
Act. Yeah, that same Civil Rights Act that was enabled by Senate
Republicans, led by Everett Dirksen.
Republicans have always stood for the
emancipation and economic empowerment of Blacks in America, but
that history is not taught, and it is being stolen. Today,
instead of physical bondage, the Democrats have instituted the
policies of economic bondage, and enslavement. They have turned
inner cities into new plantations, based upon economic dependency
and servitude. The crop to be harvested today is no longer
cotton, but votes. These new plantations are rife with the
devastation of fatherlessness, rampant killing of Black babies in
the womb, rise of gangs, lack of quality education, and small
business entrepreneurship . . . all controlled by the Democrat
Party. And, in many cases, the new overseers of this economic
plantation are those sellout Blacks placed into power by the
Democrats to keep them on the plantation. If you escape? Well, as
Joe Biden said, "you ain't Black" if you were confused about
voting for him.
Have you ever asked yourself how long it has
been that the Black population in America has been stuck at 13
percent? We ain't growing because Mr. Charlie and Missy done
convinced blacks that killing our children in the womb is a
right, by way of a white supremacist and racist named Margaret
Sanger, who referred to blacks as "undesirables" and "human
weeds." Funny, the most pro-life President in America was not
Barack Hussein Obama . . . it was Donald Trump.
The lowest Black unemployment rate in history
was not through the policies of Obama, but Trump. Support to
historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs) were not
under Obama, but Trump.
It is time that Republicans stop sitting
around idly on defense and watching their political history be
stolen by the real racists, the purveyors of systemic racism, and
the implementers of the soft bigotry of low expectations, the
Democrat Party.
To the Black community in America: if you are
a registered Democrat, knowing their history, then you are truly,
as Drill Sergeants say, "dead from the neck up." If you want to
know more about the Black community and conservatism, along with
the history and failures of the Democrat Party, read a book
called "We Can Overcome: An American Black Conservative
Manifesto." No rational, intelligent, and competent Black America
should be a member of the Democrat Party, unless you see yourself
as a perpetual victim and suffer from Stockholm Syndrome.
But the bottom line is simple. If you are
Black and a member of the Party of the Jackass . . . well, they
are exploiting you for being a dumbass.
The Emancipation of Blacks and the abolition
of slavery is part of the history of the Republican Party in
America. The original and continued enslavement of Blacks is the
legacy of the Democrat Party.
I would be doggone happy to debate any
progressive socialist, including the idiot Marxist founders of
Black Lives Matter. The question to them is simple: which Black
lives?
Steadfast and Loyal,
