Former Obama “Homeland Security” Secretary Jeh Johnson is applauding U.S. cities and states that are demanding the removal of Confederate statues and memorials because he believes they are a threat to “homeland security.”
During an appearance on “This Week,” Johnson embraced the elimination of history.
“What alarms so many of us from a security perspective is that so many of the statues, the Confederate monuments are now modern day becoming symbols and rallying points for white nationalism, for neo-Nazis, for the KKK, and this is most alarming,” Johnson told Martha Raddatz.
“We fought a world war against Nazism,” he said. “The KKK reined terror on African-Americans for generations.
“And so a number of Americans, rightly, Republican and Democrat are very concerned and very alarmed and I salute those in cities and states who are taking down a lot of these monuments for reasons of public safety and security,” Johnson said.
“And that’s not a matter of political correctness, it’s a matter of public safety and homeland security,” he added.
