    The time-traveler John Wilkes Booth showed Abraham Lincoln a vision of the modern Republican Party; the president promptly shot himself in disgust, ironically ensuring that the events that would lead to the waking nightmare we Americans find ourselves in would certainly unfold.

    “Sic semper tyrannis” was never uttered by Booth, and was only attributed to him by future Confederate apologists.

    He actually said, “Time is a flat circle.”
