Ok, so make Juneteenth a federal holiday

It's historically significant, an important milestone on the road to equality before the law. I get it. But why insult Christopher Columbus into the bargain? Why replace Columbus Day with a Juneteenth Day?Why not just add Juneteenth to the calendar of holidays?

And why is it that two Republicans are sponsoring this foolishness?

Ron Johnson of Wisconsin and James Lankford of Oklahoma are both Republican senators. Today they introduced legislation to abolish Columbus day. They wanted to delete it from the national calendar and replace it with Juneteenth.

Yes, that last was a rhetorical question. The Republican Party has become a pen full of pandering losers who think Democrat-Lite is smart strategy.

I'm telling you: it's sane Americans fighting against all flags, now.
