Jefferson was/is the quintessential embodiment of Americana
He didn't get along with his boss, either!
Many thanks Prof. Beschloss for your timely reminder of Thomas Jefferson. It’s good to see the face of an honorable man while all this unseemly behavior is coming from the White House.
Jefferson owned slaves, accused Adams of heinous acts, and supported foreign revolution movements that beheaded children
didn't dude own slaves?
French collusion? ;)
In many ways Jefferson's life is the template for America itself
Secretary of State was once a springboard to the presidency, with Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, and QAdams all holding the post. But no SofS has become USPres since Buchanan. #PoliticsTrivia
He has better hair than Rex.
Kind of hard to improve from that point.
Is Tillerson the worst ever? 1. Eviscerated his department & diplomatic corps. 2. Didn’t speak for the President or Administration. Who are other candidates for worst SOS?
Really enjoy your tweets. You’re one of the few putting out historically interesting and relevant information. Thank you
And the first Secretary of State to pay newspapers to spread rumors about the President's lack of judgement and competence.
John Quincy Adams called Jefferson a slur upon the moral government of the world. They obviously had a much higher standard for insults than what we see today. Perhaps taunts such as lying Tommy or little Thomas was frowned upon by the founders.
Washington’s cabinet...greatest minds our country ever had in one room.
