In his speech at Mount Rushmore President Trump warned the country is under assault from “a merciless campaign to:

wipe out our history,

defame our heroes,

erase our values and

indoctrinate our children.”

His comments came after angry mobs tore down statues of the founding fathers, abolitionists and police that have put their lives on the line serving the country. White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany defended those remarks stating:

“Misguided movements such as ‘defund the police’ seek to leave our communities more vulnerable than ever. Case and point, this weekend alone in New York there were 44 shootings with 11 killed. In Chicago 75 people were shot with 13 killed and tragically at least five of these individuals were children who were killed in cities across the country and we grieve for those families.”

In an Oval Office interview Wednesday, the president said he rejects the wave of a new “far-left fascism” and a “left-wing cultural revolution” that stands as a current threat to American civilization. He then called on Republican lawmakers to toughen up and get smart, otherwise “they’re going to have a very tough election.”

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) told Fox News radio Monday there are voices out there who are actually pushing for reform and are different from the ones just trying to stir up chaos and “remake America.”
