On Wednesday afternoon, November 6, my babies would — as I expected — come to my door.
The prayer that young Deborah gave was filled with thanks to the Almighty God for not only allowing the Honorable Donald J. Trump to be elected to the presidency, but in hopes that the people would help him to accomplish what President (William) McKinley wanted to do when he made a plea to the women of the South to build a memorial that would be a symbol to those ends of an era of “Reconciliation.â€
All of us in that room, as we listened to her pray, had come to understand that (US. Sen.) Elizabeth Warren and the top cronies at the Department of Defense, who had sworn to protect the Constitution of the United States of America, had frustrated it and the moment of American reconciliation with a “bill of attainder“ to implement her concocted illegal charges against the ancestors of the Southern people who made a legal stand against the tyrants.
She (Warren) — and those who advanced the Naming Commission proposal — turned their backs on the compact that had brought America together against the tyranny of a king who now they began to mimic in a new coalition in Congress: white folk guilters, revolutionary Communists, anti-Southern bigots and war hawks who turned their backs on the Rule of and Equal Protection of the Law and Trump’s admonition about destroying history.
Like the Honorable President Jefferson Davis (the former president of the Confederate States of America), while chained to a bed at Fort Monroe by the federal government, who screamed out for a trial to defend himself and his peers for the legal act of secession and the unwarranted claim of treason and insurrection, we of the South find ourselves screaming for justice once again.
Warren and her illicit acts belie a modus operandi, which led the South to desire to remove itself from a nation they loved back in 1861.
Tearing down the memorials and name places of former Confederate soldiers and honorable patriot ancestors like General Robert E. Lee, Jefferson Davis, and General Nathan Bedford Forest with total disregard of the actions of (Abraham) Lincoln, (Ulysses S.) Grant, (John Basil) Turchin and (William Tecumseh) Sherman is an act of domestic warfare.
We, the people of the South, ask President Trump to restore peace by putting our Southern Memorials and names back in their places of prominence. A petition has been created, please consider signing it.
God bless you!

EDITOR’S NOTE: A “bill of attainder†is “a law that punishes a person or group of people without a judicial trial,†according to AI Overview. “The term comes from English law, where bills of attainder were used to punish people who tried to overthrow the government. Bills of attainder are unconstitutional in the United States. The Constitution’s Bill of Attainder Clause prohibits federal and state bills of attainder. The clause protects the separation of powers by preventing the government from punishing people without a trial.â€
