Congress seeks to rescind Medals of Honor

A lot wrong with this post. First it didn't 'allegedly' happen. It DID happen. Second, it had nothing to do with a war or even a battle. It was a massacre. A massacre of hundreds of innocent women and children. The U.S. government demands you speak of was our refusal to stop dancing. Wovoka, or Jack Wilson as he became known as because we were given 'American' names (not allowed to use our names in the land of the free), founded the 2nd Ghost Dance movement. The government forbade this. We believed the Ghost Dance would render us impenetrable to the white man's bullets and would raise all the dead warriors so that we could kill off our oppressors.
For this the government gave the soldiers medals.
It happened according to legend but was it technically "murder" if we were technically at war with the belligerent Native Americans? How is the shooting deaths of women and children different from the incineration of tens of thousands of women and children if the intent is the same? I forget, were the Feds awarded medals after incinerating 80 men women and children at Waco?

It happened. Full stop. This happened because the government was afraid of Lakotas doing the Ghost Dance. Any thoughts as to why that is?
 
What legislation are you proposing should be done?
.

I propose that the 15 Assclowns in Congress that were arrested protesting the Supreme Court do their job and work on Legislation ...
Instead of trying to ignore their job and the Separation of Powers between co-equal branches of our government as established in the US Constitution.

It would be a lot more beneficial to their efforts than more political grandstanding and pretending virtue signaling is their job.

Congress should be doing things that serve some purpose. They have offloaded huge amounts of their responsibility onto executive agencies so they can spend their time renaming post offices and worrying about medals people who have been dead for over 100 years got 150 years ago?
Dude, the republic party has just become the opposed party. They will not compromise and just fail as a party to legislate.
 
Congratulations on filling up for $3.65 as opposed to $5.00. You might want to come back and brag that you filled up on average for $3.00 or less throughout the year like we did under the previous President.

Snapshots and periodic dips off all time highs are nothing to brag about. The reality is that US consumers are more dependent on foreign energy and instability in the global energy markets thanks to Biden’s domestic energy policies.
The price of gasoline under pandemic is a snapshot is it not?

You second assertion is incorrect. Currently, we’re producing near record amounts of frack oil and it is being sold on world markets.


So what do you have?
 
Congress is proposing to rescind Medals of Honor awarded to 20 soldiers who participated in the Wounded Knee Massacre

Long overdue for rewarding Genocide

Sounds like a great precedent!

And SUCH a great use of congressional resources too!

:)

In both cases, we were not as dependent on foreign oil markets. Record production means nothing if you can’t keep up with production and are hindered by increased regulations. I suggest you read about the impact of comparatively higher regular levels on industries.

What increased regulation?

Name them.


Again domestic production of dirty frack oil isn’t beneficial to our domestic gasoline pricing.
 
Ok. Though Im not sure who this helps the people who got them are long since dead, their families dont receive any special privileges because of it, and the people effected by their actions are all dead as well. So, essentially the Congress is going to delete their names out of the CMoH database at the Library of Congress? Well I for one am glad they have used up whatever amount of bandwidth it took to get this done. God knows as country we dont have anything more important to worry about that 20 dead people who got CMoH based on the standards of their time but wouldnt have based on today's morals and mores.
More cancel culture bs....You can't accurately tell America's history if you are to hold those of the past to today's morals, and mores....That is pure crap.
