Joe Biden in ’93: United Daughters of the Confederacy were “fine people” (ties to the KKK)

Even after nearly three years, the corrupt media still lies about Trump “very fine people” during the riots in Charlottesville in 2017. Now it seems that Joey the Biden has his own “fine people” moment. Back in 1993, during the Senate confirmation hearing for then-Supreme Court nominee Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Joe Biden defended the United Daughters of the Confederacy were as “fine people”. How ironic is this? Oh, but there’s more. the United Daughters of the Confederacy (UDC), an organization committed to preserving Confederate statues with ties to the Ku Klux Klan. Considering Joe Biden was BFFs with KKK Democrat Senator RObert Byrd, I guess this shouldn’t be much of a surprise.

Joe Biden in '93: United Daughters of the Confederacy were

During the Senate confirmation hearing for then-Supreme Court nominee Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Biden, the Senate Judiciary Committee chairman, made a surprising comment about the United Daughters of the Confederacy (UDC), an organization committed to preserving Confederate statues with ties to the Ku Klux Klan.

Biden began his remarks by referring to a speech made on the Senate floor by Sen. Howell Heflin (D-Ala.), who was speaking in support of efforts by Sen. Carol Moseley Braun (D-Ill.) to deny renewal of a Confederate flag design patent to the UDC.

“I, too, heard that speech and, for the public listening to this, the senator made a very moving and eloquent speech. As a son of the Confederacy, acknowledging that it was time to change and yield to a position that Sen. Carol Moseley-Braun raised on the Senate floor, not granting a federal charter to an organization made up of many fine people who continue to display the Confederate flag as a symbol,” he said during the 1993 hearing.

“The charter would have given them the right, the imprimatur of the federal government to do that. It had nothing to do with the First Amendment, Judge, so don’t worry. But the senator made a very significant speech rivaled only, in my view, by a private speech given to me personally by a man whose office I now occupy, Sen. John Stennis from Mississippi,” Biden continued.
