.@SenDuckworth: "You said just now...that to a man and to a woman we would rather be associated with the old confederate names. Well, I am one of those women. I served at Fort Rucker, Alabama…I'd rather be associated with Mike Novosel than a failed confederate traitor."

@SenDuckworth And that’s great—Mike Novosel was a true American hero. But that doesn’t mean we need to erase every uncomfortable piece of history to prove a point. Fort names weren’t chosen to glorify the Confederacy—they were named during times of war and reconciliation, often by Democratic-led administrations, and kept for decades without controversy. Now suddenly they’re symbols of treason? Renaming doesn’t honor the heroes—it’s a political rewrite, not a tribute. The soldiers who served at those bases—like Sen. Duckworth herself—made the names mean something through their own sacrifice, not because of who they were named after. You want to uplift Novosel? Fine. But don’t pretend rewriting history is how we honor service. We honor it by remembering all of it—flaws, progress, and all.

@cspan @SenDuckworth I would rather you had learned to read a map and not flown into an area you shouldn’t have in Iraq.

@cspan @SenDuckworth Alabamianis never recognized whatever woke name the stupid left gave it. It is and will always be, Ft. Rucker.

@cspan @SenDuckworth Confederates were not traitors. She is using an anachronism. She is ignorant and does not understand history and certainly doesn’t understand the Civil War.

@cspan @SenDuckworth Spitting on America's fallen and the reconciliation at the same time, then calling people traitors. Unbelievable betrayal of our nation. Really, trying to take advantage over the 160 years long gone CIVIL WAR ... just wretched. This cretin should be forced to resign.

@cspan @SenDuckworth The logic problem. History is not pristine. So do we change the name of America (see Amerigo Vespucci) too while we're at it? Do we tear down the Jefferson Memorial? Do we investigate every single named entity and have it pass a purity test? Who gets to decide? No easy answers...

@cspan @SenDuckworth Well, that's because you're a dipshit that wants to change and rewrite history so it's more palatable to you.

@cspan @SenDuckworth @SenDuckworth should know the history of why those names were chosen. You would think being a senator that she would. Her military service and the fact that she’s making this an issue, that she would definitely know why.

@cspan @SenDuckworth She is from Illinois. She’s an idiot. All of her political ads were about how she is a veteran. That is how she got elected. I didn’t vote for her. I did just the tiniest bit of research on her.

@cspan @SenDuckworth Democrats have never been so discredited and utterly despised by the American people. They are so desperate at this point. So pathetic.

@cspan @SenDuckworth Considering the attack on her helicopter that cost her legs was possibly due to her own negligence and lack of training I’d think she should just be quiet.
