The Forgotten First Presidents

If there’s one thing you can count on an American knowing about U.S. history, it’s that George Washington became the first President of the United States in 1789. But that leaves a 13-year gap between when the United States declared its independence in 1776 and when Washington accepted the highest office in the land. Meanwhile, during that period, 14 men held the office of President.

While the rules were different, the contributions of the forgotten 14 Congressional Presidents deserve to be remembered. They played vital roles representing nine of the original 13 states and their signatures are all over some of the most important foundational documents of the United States. But it’s not about them individually, it’s about the forgotten position in which they served during that odd period leading up to the signing of the Constitution, when Americans had to figure out what they had to do and what is was like to administer a nation. Here’s more from The History Guy.

Toppling Statues

Statues honoring George Washington, General Ulysses S. Grant (who DEFEATED the Confederacy), the author of the National Anthem, and other important figures in history have been destroyed.

This is not about promoting racial harmony—it’s about hating America. More from PragerU.

Leftists Take Aim At Jesus

Leftists started by removing statues of old Confederate soldiers. Next, they began to target Christopher Columbus and Andrew Jackson. Then they moved on to Washington, Jefferson and Franklin. Now, they are taking aim at Jesus. They are demanding Christian sculptures and statues be destroyed. More from Meme the Left.

The Real First President

American textbooks taught us that George Washington was the first president of the United States, but they fail to mention an important detail. Washington, of course, was our nation’s first president under the U.S. Constitution.

But before the supreme law came into being, our young country was bound together by the Articles of Confederation. During this period, eight presidents served our fledgling country ahead of  Washington, beginning with John Hanson of Maryland. Simon Whistler unravels the details and tells us about the real first president of the United States on Today I Found Out.

Worth Remembering

Notice how the Deep State declares Joe Biden sacrosanct. You can’t investigate him because he’s running for President. This is the same Deep State, of course, that defends its illegal probes of President Donald Trump on the campaign trial. He had to be investigated. He was running for President!

More from In Pursuit of Truth, taking a look at Lindsey Graham, the impeachment trial, the latest Q posts and the controversy surrounding Very Large Vanilla.

Who’s Very Large Vanilla? That’s the alleged “whistleblower” whose name we dare not speak.  He was actually a CIA agent responsible for paying the assassins who killed 100 police officers and civilians in Kiev, Ukraine.

Sen. Rand Paul identified this alleged whistleblower, who is actually just a criminal leaker. In so doing, Paul incurred the wrath of Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn. To which we say: Hey, Blumie, how about you lay off Rand Paul? Don’t you have some more Vietnam lies to spill?

Mark Dice also touches upon the controversy involving the whistleblower, whose very name opens with the acronym “C-I-A.” How can a bozo like this touch off a coup d’etat in the Ukraine in the month of February 2014 and then, forever after, we can’t identify him? He doesn’t speak for the American people. He doesn’t represent us. He is just another CIA thug and globalist pig, and merits absolutely no protection whatsoever.

The [Deep State]/Democrats they know they are in trouble. The fake impeachment has failed. There is no step 5. Now they are throwing everything out there to get Trump. The public is waking up. The public questioning it all. It is now time to drip out the next piece of information: All other crimes. The perfect storm is coming.More from the X22 Report.

Deja vous. George Washington/Donald Trump, both crossing the Delaware River. Revolutionary War is here upon us. More from Annette Cividanes.

Boomerang! These people are stupid. And, yes, they are being exposed. All the world is coming to see who is behind the madness and how they are destroying our nations, our religions, our free speech, and attempting to subvert and subject us to demons. More from Craig Mason.

Washington Murals Targeted

George Washington High School in San Francisco, Calif., is thinking of removing its Washington murals because they “traumatize” the students. That’s right. These students are so fragile and so frigging dumb they can’t handle being in the proximity of images showing the first American president.

Obviously, it’s time President Donald Trump took action and began dumping illegal aliens in cities like San Francisco that no longer think they are part of the United States. If San Francisco wants to be attached to Mexico, make it so. Vincent James of The Red Elephants outlines what’s afoot and also covers some McKinley statues that are being taken down.

A Valentine’s Day Message

Lots of mushy cards get exchanged every Valentine’s Day, but in 1776, perhaps the most important pamphlet in American history began circulating. It was Thomas Paine’s COMMON SENSE, an instant best seller, read by everyone from Gen. George Washington to the lowest buck private in the army. In this episode of LIBERTY’S KIDS, James, Sarah and Henri meet Thomas Paine and learn of his belief that the common man can rule himself. The Kids also hear Paine’s stand favoring full independence from England.
