WANJIRU NJOYA: Remember it wasn't just Lee, the destroyers did the same to the statues of Jefferson Davis, Stonewall Jackson, Nathan Bedford Forrest, and many others whose names are less well known.

Everyone is talking about Robert E. Lee today

This statue of Jefferson Davis was given to the National Statuary Hall Collection by Mississippi in 1931. 

Here are the statues of the National Statuary Hall Collection.  from Architect of the Capitol.  

And this is Stonewall Jackson, also in a museum. They hacked the statue to pieces and displayed it thus

Thank you to Wanjiru Njoya. 

What happened was that artist Kara Walker was commissioned to deconstruct the Southern heroes and men into grotesque abstractions. The statue of Thomas Stonewall Jackson looked like this in 1921.

It's called the Equestrian statue of Stonewall Jackson in Jacksonville, Virginia, 1921.  It is an absolute gorgeous statue of one of America's great generals.  

Kevin Levin explains,

Artist Kara Walker is using the decommissioned bronze equestrian statue of Confederate general Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson from Charlottesville, Virginia, as material for a new art installation. The work, titled Unmanned Drone (2023–2025), is the centerpiece of a major exhibition in Los Angeles called   MONUMENTS.  The Stonewall Jackson monument was dedicated in 1921. It was taken down by the city in 2021 after years of controversy. The Los Angeles non-profit, The Brick (formerly LAXART), acquired the monument.

Kevin Levin in his "Beheading of Stonewall Jackson," Cites the NYT who quotes Walker,  

The first step in the process, she said, was ‘a really kind of gruesome beheading’ of the Jackson figure that she said left her unsettled. Though some people present applauded as the head came off, she said, ‘I actually felt like it was such a violent act that I was really uncomfortable with it.’ But she felt there was no alternative: ‘I knew that what I was going to do was going to involve not having the head in its right place.’ 

These Marxists are true monsters.

About Lost Cause, Levin says, "The artist has transformed the object's original intent, subverting its heroic “Lost Cause” narrative."  Can you imagine?  Rewriting a warrior's, a nation's, and sacrifices his men made as all wrong in their pursuit of the war?  I'm sure that canard started before that last rifle was fired in 1865.

RUSS VOUGHT: The National Science Foundation will be breaking up the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) in Boulder, Colorado. This facility is one of the largest sources of climate alarmism in the country.

Russ keeps racking up wins. Has an elite team of operatives dismantling the most pernicious elements of the far left Shadow Government- day in and day out.

This is why the left makes Russ the top target in the admin- he’s destroying their illicit power structure. https://t.co/leB7l7XAIZ

🚨 Why is the British Empire in full panic mode?

It's not about missiles. It's about a "boring" document that just ended their financial control over America.

Kombucha isn't a health drink.

It's tea fermented with bacteria and yeast until it becomes slightly alcoholic and full of organic acids. The fermentation produces histamine - lots of it. If you're histamine-sensitive, kombucha triggers headaches, skin reactions, digestive distress, and anxiety within hours. The acetic acid that gives it the vinegar taste is harsh on tooth enamel. Drinking it regularly demineralises teeth the same way sipping soda does. Commercial kombucha is often pasteurized to stop fermentation and extend shelf life, which kills the probiotics everyone thinks they're drinking it for. You're getting dead bacteria in vinegar. The unpasteurised versions continue fermenting in the bottle. The alcohol content increases. Some bottles test at 3% alcohol - enough to fail a breathalyser if you drink a whole bottle and drive. The sugar content is typically 7-15g per bottle even after fermentation. The bacteria didn't eat all the sugar. You're drinking what's left. The probiotic strains in kombucha are random - whatever yeast and bacteria happened to colonise the SCOBY during home brewing. There's no quality control on which organisms are present. You're drinking vinegar tea with unpredictable bacteria, high histamine, residual sugar, and accidental alcohol, because someone told you fermented foods are healthy. Your gut doesn't need random bacteria in acidic liquid. It needs you to stop destroying it with inflammatory foods
