Biden on behalf of KKK-linked group

Back a few decades ago, the Confederate flag hadn't yet been demonized into a symbol of racism in the eyes of the general population.

So not only is Joe Biden the corrupt former vice president who used his son to loot Ukraine, not only is he a serial liar who has repeatedly smeared the president with a provable lie, not only is he a racist, he is also a raging hypocrite, and we now have the video to prove it.

Sons of Confederate veterans is not KKK linked nor are they racist. Joe was correct. There are many fine people in SCV. SCV will expel members if Klan affilation is suspected.

Now, to be fair to the UDC, an organization founded in 1894 that dedicates itself to, among other things, “honor[ing] honor the memory of those who served and those who fell in the service of the Confederate States of America,” it has renounced every “individual or group that promotes racial divisiveness or white supremacy.” But as PJ Media’s Tyler O’Neil points out, the UDC still “has a troubling history with the Ku Klux Klan,” which included a monument erected to the racist group in the 1920s.

What’s more, at the time of Biden’s remarks, the UDC was still flying the Confederate flag and lobbying in favor of erecting the same Confederate monuments that spurred the Charlottesville riots.

As we all remember, after the horror show in Charlottesville, Trump repeatedly and appropriately condemned the white supremacists and the left-wing terrorist group Antifa for the deadly violence that erupted. However, Trump also appropriately praised those on both sides of the Confederate monument issue as “fine people,” which is an accurate way to describe those, who in good faith, came to Charlottesville to peacefully express their beliefs at a protest hijacked by neo-Nazis and Antifa thugs.

The group has insisted that it "denounces any individual or group that promotes racial divisiveness or white supremacy," but it has a troubling history with the Ku Klux Klan.

UDC erected a monument to the KKK outside of Charlotte, N.C. in the 1920s. "The UDC always had ties to the Klan," Heidi Christensen, a former president of the organization's Seattle chapter, told the Daily Beast last year. "But the connection became more overt in the 1910s. You've got 'Birth of a Nation,' and then the second rising of the Klan, and you see [the UDC] openly revering the KKK and defending them as saviors of the white southern race during Reconstruction."

"Those things made it clear they were loyal to the Klan and saw them as heroes. And in some ways [the UDC was] sort of like the KKK's more feminine, genteel sister organization," Chirstensen added.

There were several eras of the Klan. It was formed to expel carpet baggers. It morphed into a racist/terrorist organization. It morphed back to a social club. It did not become the monster it is known to be until the 1950s.
