AMERICA SAVED: Robert E. Lee Statue Removed from Capitol Building.

Like the old saying goes: “Those who cannot remember the past… will be just fine, probably. Whew!”

As you may recall, but The Hill doesn’t mention, Ralph Northam is the guy who just last year was forced to explain why his college yearbook contained a photo of him in a Klan outfit. Or possibly in blackface, he says he can’t really remember. Either way, his explanation consisted of not much more than a shrug. And yet he kept his job, because he’s a Democrat and the only viable replacement at the time was a Republican. (The next two guys in the line of succession were another accused racist and an accused rapist. Good going, Virginia!). Power won, because power always wins. Even when it means proving that the Democrats don’t actually care about fighting racism.

It’s Jim Treacher, so read the whole thing.
