Way back in 2017 Trump warned that the left would not stop tearing statues until nothing was left and he was right.
Radical leftists with ties to the BLM and Antifa tour down statues such as Jefferson, Lincoln, and even Lewis and Clark.
But now Congress is getting involved with tearing down statues.
The U.S. Congress Naming Commission is set to remove statues from over 1,100 sites and spend over $62 million dollars doing so.
The radical leftist goonies were not able to rip down all the statues so now Congress is doing the final touches.

The Naming Commission's final report and recommendations – unanimous and bipartisan – honor the strength, diversity, and values of the United States military, the American people, and our democracy.

The National Pulse dropped these details:
In perhaps the most backwards move of the entire “tear down the statues” movement, the U.S. Congress’ Naming Commission will soon attempt to demolish the Confederate Memorial in Arlington, Virginia, designed by the first globally renowned Jewish-American artist, Moses Ezekiel. Ezekiel himself is buried at the base of the statue.
Announced this week, the Democrat and Republican-backed Naming Commission has said the entire endeavor of attempting to rewrite American history will cost around $62 million, and involve around 1100 sites, statues, and properties.
Most notably, the Commission targets the grave and Confederate Memorial of Moses Ezekiel – an artist once likened to Michelangelo – calling it “problematic from top to bottom”.
The issue, they claim, is that the memorial lauds the Confederacy as a “noble” cause. But that was scarcely the artist’s intention, nor does that claim appear to be reflected in even the liberal media reports from the time. Ezekiel’s statue originally focused on State’s Rights as well as free trade, being decided upon in 1906, and unveiled to critical acclaim in 1914.
At the time, even the Washington Post described the monument as representing “peace,” and news outlets from around the world published fawning praise for the forward-looking monument.
The Naming Commission is calling for the monument to be DESTROYED:
"The statue atop of the monument should be removed. All bronze elements on the monument should be deconstructed, & removed"https://t.co/F5OqdHtEtC#cancelculture #heritage #history #culture pic.twitter.com/TwHWPf78cp— Jefferson Davis (@Jeff_Davis1808) September 22, 2022
The Congressional Naming Commission recommended to Congress that hundreds of Confederate-honoring names on U.S. military assets have their monikers changed, and it’s estimated to cost $62.5 million to do so.

The Grio added these details:
The Congressional Naming Commission recommended to Congress that hundreds of Confederate-honoring names on U.S. military assets have their monikers changed, and it’s estimated to cost $62.5 million to do so.
According to CBS News, retired Army Brig. Gen. Ty Seidule, the commission’s vice chair, said it had reviewed roughly 1,100 assets from across the services connected to the Confederacy. In its final report to Congress submitted Monday — ahead of the October 1 deadline — they suggested the Department of Defense rename or remove hundreds of items.
