Democrats Invoke Civil War Era Policy

Capitol Hill witnessed a stunning spectacle Sunday as House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) took to the floor during a Democrat-led “sit-in,” making an outrageous comparison between today’s United States under President Trump and the bloody days of the Civil War.

Jeffries, joined by far-left Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ) and liberal activists, railed against President Trump’s common-sense America First budget plan, claiming the nation is facing “turmoil” akin to the 1860s.

Jeffries Twists Civil War History to Attack Trump Agenda

During the event, after fiery remarks from Rev. William Barber about “principles over party,” Jeffries referenced a letter attributed to Civil War General Ulysses S. Grant. He sensationally claimed Grant saw the country divided between “patriots and traitors” — a pointed jab at Republicans standing firm with President Trump.

Jeffries declared:

“There are but two parties in America right now: patriots and traitors.”

The small crowd of liberal protesters erupted in applause — a clear sign the Democrats are more interested in dividing Americans than healing the nation.

The Real Words of Ulysses S. Grant Tell a Different Story

Here’s the actual quote from Ulysses S. Grant’s letter:

“Regardless of my previous political views, I now hold a single conviction: we have a government, a set of laws, and a flag, and all must be preserved. Today, there are only two sides — patriots and traitors — and I intend to stand with the patriots, who I believe will be the stronger force.”

Unlike today’s radical Democrats, Grant spoke about preserving the nation, upholding American law, and respecting the flag — values President Trump proudly defends every day.

Democrats Continue to Rewrite History for Political Gain

Jeffries’ inflammatory rhetoric isn’t new. Liberal media figures like CNN’s Jake Tapper and even Trump ally Roger Stone have referenced Grant’s words — but left-wing outlets were quick to feign outrage when conservatives did it.

Now, with the 2025 budget battle looming, Democrats are using fear, distortion, and historical revisionism to block President Trump’s pro-America economic reforms.

Jeffries ended his remarks by claiming Democrats would “end this national nightmare” — a not-so-subtle attack on American voters who overwhelmingly chose a stronger, safer, and more prosperous future under President Trump.


Bottom Line: President Trump Stands for Patriots — Democrats Push Division

As liberals escalate their war of words, true patriots stand with President Trump to defend American values, secure our economy, and preserve freedom for generations to come.

Stay tuned as President Trump continues fighting for YOU — against the radical chaos the left is trying to unleash once again.
