As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.
Abraham Lincoln was in trouble in 1864. Abraham Lincoln was in trouble for the entire period he was nominated for President in 1860 and sunk to new precipices in four years of war, where his army was more loyal to America than Lincoln and Lincoln's cabinet was more interested in mismanagement or his job, than in Lincoln's success.
In the long month of summer to the Union Party convention in Baltimore, Abraham Lincoln had been huddled with those who were not his confidants in they had no idea what Lincoln was engaged in. His private secretary John Hay, often saw a Kansan appearing at the White House, but was clueless to what Lincoln and James Henry Lane were planning. The revelation would occur on the first sweltering night of the convention, when those who hated Lincoln and were not going to allow his nomiation again, had appear before them, this most off putting political and military leader from Bloody Kansas.
James Henry Lane (Union general) - Wikipedia
James Henry Lane, also known as Jim Lane, (June 22, 1814 - July 11, 1866) was a partisan during the Bleeding Kansas period that immediately preceded the American Civil War. During the war itself, Lane served as a United States Senator and as a general for the Union. Although reelected as a Senator during 1865, Lane committed suicide the next ...
In the book the Re election of Lincoln, John Waugh serializes sources making commentary on Jim Lane, and from the descriptions, no one would have chosen this man for any task or to keep company with, as he was a one person Jesse James and Younger gang on his own, but this is who Abraham Lincoln reached down to, in order to save himself politically.
During the Battle of Hemp Bales, General John Charles Fremont ordered General Henry Lane to make a "demonstration along the Kansas Missouri border with his Jayhawkers". Lane acted gladly on Fremont's official authorization for a raid into Missouri. He raided the village of Morristown near the state line, burned it and swept a wide path of pillage, arson and murder of private citizens through the Missouri territory six miles wide and fifteen miles long. However as it turns out it had little to no effect on Mulligan. "His raids culminated in the Sacking of Osceola, in which Lane's forces killed at least nine men, then pillaged, looted, and then burned the town; these events inspired the novel Gone To Texas by Forrest Carter, which was the basis for the 1976 Clint Eastwood movie The Outlaw Josey Wales.
It all began at the Grand Counci of #NeverLincoln.
Then a lank cadaverous figure with long and reckless hair and a hint of Mephistopheles aobut him, arose and said, "Mr President - Gentlemen of the Grand Council."
gaunt, tattered, uncombed and unshaven, he showed up at any time at the White House. no collar or necktie, thin hair standing like a crown of porcupine quills.
John Hay summed Lane up as, coarse, mean, ignoble, sad, dim eyed, with a bad toothed face of a harlot.
James Gordon Bennett of the New York Herald, defined Lame as a jayhawker, anxious for plunder leading a host of harpies".
His was sarcasm, with a harsh raspy voice, crude mannerisms pointing the way with long Ichabod Crane bony fingers.
Jim and Mary Lane in more wedded times.
He spit tobacco, was divorced, never paid his debts, took God's Name in vain with every breath and worshiped at the Shrine of Venus. A prostitute in Washington City had presented him a note on the street, to which Lane had torn it up in her face. She in turn and smacked his hat off, and then beat him with it for too long of time, to become a circus in a city of gambling houses and whores.
He was the VINDICTIVE friend of the President.
He rose to the council of political assassins and began with, For a man to stir up so sore and wounded hearts to bitterness requires no skill, no powerful oratory....
For a man to address himself to an assembly like this, goaded to madness by long suffering....
I am no orator at all, but that thing I am about to do.........."
And with that Jim Lane of Kansas turned this lynch mob against Abraham Lincoln into it's advocates in passing a resolution for the President, who they all hated and detested.
Lane was the target of the event that became the Lawrence Massacre (or Quantrill's Raid) on August 21, 1863. Confederate guerrillas could be heard shouting, "Remember Osceola!" Though Lane was in residence in Lawrence at the time, he was able to escape the attack by racing through a nearby ravine.
That is why Abraham Lincoln horse traded, which is a kind word, in Abraham Lincoln bribed Jim Lane with a king's ransom of political promises and power to save Abraham Lincoln at the Union Convention in Baltimore, in the major step to electing him again.
President Doanld Trump does not have a reprobate in the House or Senate, who can bully the bullies who are arrayged against him, and he certainly does not have the Christian God in slumming around with Marionettes and Jewry, with a side of Muslim couscous as his tech lords prey upon the nation in data bytes.
This President should heed the historical context of President Lincoln in the election of 1864. Lincoln wrenched it from his adversaries, in leaving nothing to chance. This President is going to need a Cassius in Congress to star on the stage of this WWE political theater, who will chew the political world up and spit it out to the subduing of the American voter.
On July 1, 1866 Lane shot himself in the head as he jumped from his carriage in Leavenworth, Kansas. He was allegedly deranged, depressed, had been charged with abandoning his fellow Radical Republicans and had been accused of financial irregularities. He died ten days later near Leavenworth, Kansas, a result of the self-inflicted gunshot.
