"Under my direction, the soldiers who fought at the Battle of Wounded Knee will keep their medals"

[MayReasonRule]

Only an administration intent on committing war crimes in the present and future would stoop to calling Wounded Knee a "battle" rather than what it truly was: a massacre of over 250 Lakotas, mainly women, children, and the elderly. 1/

3. Disgusting, but I didn't know that this was a 'thing'.

Not like they were going to get the Native American vote anyway.

4. "In your face" attitude about his blatant racism.

5. This is in response to the "Remove the Stain Act."

Introduced in the Senate on 04/12/2021, the Remove the Stain Act, S.1073, states:

"This bill rescinds each Medal of Honor awarded for acts that occurred on December 29, 1890, at Wounded Knee Creek, Lakota Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, South Dakota."

"The bill requires the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Coast Guard to remove the names of those award recipients from the Medal of Honor Roll."

6. Battle? What "battle"? It was a massacre.

7. K&R. This move can be reversed someday but the message for now is loud and clear

War crimes are acceptable and will be rewarded.

Carry on brave soldiers… this action coming this week along with the gathering of generals feels ominous.

Rewarding the slaughter of civilians with the MOH is sending a clear message
