Pelosi orders removal of Confederate portraits in Capitol
By Cristina Marcos - 06/18/20 11:54 AM EDT

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Thursday ordered the removal of four portraits in the Capitol of previous House Speakers who served in the Confederacy.

The move marks Pelosi's latest effort to take down Confederate imagery in the Capitol, following her push last week calling for the removal of 11 Confederate statues displayed in the Capitol complex.

"We didn't know about this until we were taking inventory of the statues and the curator told us that there were four paintings of Speakers in the Capitol of the United States, four Speakers who had served in the Confederacy," Pelosi told reporters in the Capitol.

The Speaker and the Senate Majority Leader are national positions, and need to be subject to national accountability.

SO they were Speakers (before/after the Civil War), and served in Congress, but because they also happened to serve in some capacity in the Confederacy during the Civil War, they have to go?

Apparently there are no adults left in the building.

Will the black folks still get to use "Amazing Grace," but not the white folks, or none at all?

I'm strongly in favor of retaining and teaching ALL of our history.
