So everything I'm saying, everyone already knows, which is kind of the whole show.

Just saying a bunch of stuff everybody already knows, and that's one of them.

We'll wrap it up there for today.

Talk to you tomorrow.

Have a great day.

Godspeed.

History is written by the victors.

And since the 1960s, we've been told, mostly by people whose ancestors didn't even live here during the war, that the South committed treason.

But if the Confederates were traitors, then why was Jefferson Davis never put on trial for treason?

What were Abraham Lincoln and Andrew Johnson afraid of?

Did they know something they're not allowed to say today?

It's time for the truth.

So here it is.

Robert E. Lee was a military genius and a man of immense honor.

He was beloved by Americans from the North and South for a century after the war.

This is the real history of the Civil War.

If you grew up in the United States in the past 50 years, then you know about the Trail of Tears.

It's one of those stories that's beaten into our collective consciousness starting in grade school.

We're taught in no uncertain terms that Native Americans were forcibly removed from their ancestral lands by the US government between 1830 and 1850, and that thousands of natives died in the process.

The government did this so that white men could seize Indian land and the valuable resources that it sat on.
