The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

With Trump's poll #'s slipping hard he needs to re-energize his racist base...

Trump has ordered the installation of a new statue in Washington, of Albert Pike, a Confederate general who supported slavery,
was involved in the KKK and said, "The white race, and that race alone, shall govern this country.
It is the only one that is fit to govern, and it is the only one that shall."

In 1905's book Ku Klux Klan: Its Origin, Growth and Disbandment, the author Walter L. Fleming, lists Pike as the Klan's "chief judicial officer"

Dope: "Yes! This is what we voted for!"
