Lincoln’s Deep Pink Assistant Secretary of War–Part Two

Charles Dana and Horace Greeley parted company in 1862 over some dispute, at which point Secretary of War Edwin Stanton, a rather dubious character, stepped in and snatched Dana up. Stanton made him a “Special Investigating Agent” for the War Department. Dana spent a lot of time with Grant’s army and ended up recommending that Grant be placed in command of all the Union armies–something which eventually happened. I have often wondered what Dana, a socialist, saw in Grant that made him recommend him to command all the Union armies. I have never seen any indication that Grant was involved with any socialist actions so it makes me wonder. Needless to say, the “historians” don’t tell us.

As Walter Kennedy and I noted in our book “Lincoln’s Marxists” …we have a New York newspaper owned by a socialist (Greeley) publishing articles written by the father of modern communism (Marx) who had been hired to write for Greeley’s paper by still another man with socialist leanings (Dana). What an interesting mix!” And you mean to tell me we had no problems with socialism and communism in this country until Roosevelt in the 1930s? Hogwash! Anyone trying to tell you that is gypping you out of almost a hundred years of real history! And you are not supposed to realize that.

According to http://www.mrlincolnswhitehouse.org Dana was named as Assistant Secretary of War in 1864 and served in that capacity until 1865. James Harrison Wilson, who wrote a biography of Dana, wrote that Lincoln “appears to have taken Dana into his utmost confidence…and to have consulted with him fully about the amendment to the Constitution to legalize the abolition of slavery…” Which means that the Emancipation Proclamation was little more than war propaganda and Lincoln knew it. Too bad he couldn’t have told this to our present day “historians.” So, we had a man who was a socialist and friend of Karl Marx who had Lincoln’s “utmost confidence.” If something bothers you about this situation, you ain’t alone. But don’t look to our present day “historians” for support because these facts don’t fit their agenda.

We’ve had lots of socialist and communist influence in this country long before we were supposed to have had it according to the historians. For instance, we had Forty-Eighter socialist Carl Schurz who ended up being the Secretary of the Interior in the Hayes administration, and we had Robert Dale Owen, the son of socialist Robert Owen, who helped to craft the infamous 14th Amendment. Have you ever stopped to wonder why your public-school history books never bothered to mention any of this? How much have the socialists and communists helped to influence the direction this country has gone in since the Lincoln administration? More than you are supposed to be aware of!

With this sort of thing going on since the 1860s and most historians and writers not bothering to expose it, do you wonder why we had an Obama administration and are now mired in the middle of a Biden administration? Stop and think about all this a bit. Wake up and smell the historic coffee before inflation gets so high you can no longer afford it.

Start demanding that the schools start putting out accurate history for your kids instead of propaganda. They probably won’t, but at least they will know that you are aware of what they are doing–and when they refuse to do that, take your kids out!
