Another win for the good guys.
I served at Fort Lee, VA, for a little over a year during Vietnam. Fort Lee was named after Confederate General Robert E. Lee, in 1917(!).
I seriously don't get it.
The Confederates were given amnesty after the Civil War, but honoring them in this way is totally inappropriate. It would be like a Roman Catholic university being named after Martin Luther.
While Biden is a Jag-Off, this is a right move.
It was the 1920s – the height of Jim Crow, black codes, and segregation.
As was the case with statues and monuments named for treasonous war criminals from the South, so too were military installations – to reaffirm and establish the institution of racism.
Actually, every rebel was exonerated of Treason- mostly by President Johnson during the 1860's.

Johnson was one of the biggest racists in the country.......and reportedly a member of the kkk....
I don't know about him being one of the "biggest" racists, but he was probably typically racist for an 1860's Democrat.
But as far member of the Trip K's? I really doubt it. After all, in his day, the KKK was founded by Confederate veterans and Johnson supported the Union.
“The Commission's thorough and historically informed work has put the Department on a path to meet Congressional intent – and to remove from U.S. military facilities all names, symbols, displays, monuments, and paraphernalia that honor or commemorate the Confederacy. The Commission has chosen names that echo with honor, patriotism, and history - names that will inspire generations of Service members to defend our democracy and our Constitution.”
Very good.
Are we talking Lyndon Johnson or Andrew Johnson....both were democrats, both were racists, and likely Lyndon was the actual klan member....
I was talking about Andrew Johnson, who did a lot of pardoning of Confederate veterans during his administration.
This doesn't go far enough.“The Commission's thorough and historically informed work has put the Department on a path to meet Congressional intent – and to remove from U.S. military facilities all names, symbols, displays, monuments, and paraphernalia that honor or commemorate the Confederacy.

Very good.
Politically correct armageddon, bra.on the verge of WWIII....but those names of bases!!!
Wrong Camp (Fort) Bragg was closed and abandoned in 1921 due to post WWI cutbacks.It was the 1920s – the height of Jim Crow, black codes, and segregation.
As was the case with statues and monuments named for treasonous war criminals from the South, so too were military installations – to reaffirm and establish the institution of racism.
Remember what that famous Democrat Governor George Wallace said, "“Segregation today! Segregation tomorrow! Segregation forever!”I don't know about him being one of the "biggest" racists, but he was probably typically racist for an 1860's Democrat.

Catholic Universities went woke decades ago. It just did not have that name.I served at Fort Lee, VA, for a little over a year during Vietnam. Fort Lee was named after Confederate General Robert E. Lee, in 1917(!).

I was talking about Lyndon Johnson...funny how the racist Presidents are all democrats....
Cry about it you pussy but your Conservative members of Congress aren't going to do shit cause you lot embarrass them.WHAT AN IDIOTIC MOVE... They were all AMERICANS who served. This is an attempt to rewrite history. A bunch of classless ass clowns..
See that Billy_Bob, even your fellow cuck whites will throw your piece of shit ancestors under the bus. Look how quickly they will shift to celebrating putting their boots on the necks of cuck white Southern dixiecrats when they smell political advantage.Yep....after the Republican party defeated the democrat party slave owners in the Civil War, the democrat party enacted Jim Crow, the black codes and segregation......and they used the KKK as their brown shirts to do it.....
Today, the democrat party still wants segregation, as they show with their attempt to keep blacks and whites and hispanics separated in every aspect of life, and the democrat party is still the party of racism......
Your heritage is worth jack shit to them.
Burying history, because it is painful is a fool's errand. DEMOCRATS were the southern states leaders. They formed the KKK and other racist hate groups. Your name calling is total bull shit to make you worthless pieces of shit feel better. Its called learning from your mistakes. But you leftists lie and claim it was someone else when it was YOU that were the problem. DO the world a favor and go fuck yourself..See that Billy_Bob, even your fellow cuck whites will throw your piece of shit ancestors under the bus. Look how quickly they will shift to celebrating putting their boots on the necks of cuck white Southern dixiecrats when they smell political advantage.
