Many of those killed were women and children trying to flee the onslaught of bullets from soldiers who had surrounded the camp. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth recently announced that American soldiers honored after their actions in 1890 near Wounded Knee should be recognized as heroes and keep their Medals of Honor! “Under my direction, we’re making it clear, without hesitation, that the soldiers who fought in the Battle of Wounded Knee in 1890 will keep their medals, and we’re making it clear that they deserve those medals.”I am disgusted and outraged by this. It is bad enough to ignore history but to justify and glorify this stain on our history as an honorable and heroic act is an abomination! When will this nightmare of the vile and venomous Trump regime end?
