"JAMES MADISON DEFEATED DeWitt Clinton in 1812 to secure a second term in the White House. To commemorate his inauguration, a craftsman from Paris made him a crystal flute. The flute eventually made its way into the possession of the Library of Congress and sat unplayed until this week, when Librarian of Congress Carla Hayden invited Lizzo, a classically trained flautist, to blow a few notes and even take the piece of history onstage during her concert in Washington, D.C.
Conservatives are none too pleased!
'Simply desecrating American history just for the sake of it,' wrote right-wing pundit Matt Walsh, adding that letting Lizzo play the flute sends a 'message that our heritage and history are meaningless and that nothing we love or care about has any value.'"
