This Day in History: The Civil War Begins
This Day in History: , The Civil War Begins.
April 12, 1861.
Union-held Fort Sumter in Charleston Bay, SC,
is attacked by Confederate shore batteries
under the command of General P.G.T.
Beauregard.
After being battered
for 34 straight hours,
U.S. Major Robert Anderson
surrendered the fort.
U.S. President Abraham Lincoln
called for 75,000 volunteer
soldiers two days later.
He had been in office
for barely more than a month.
South Carolina, a slave state,
had issued an "Ordinance of Secession"
earlier in December, dissolving its ties with the Union.
The following four years of war between
the North and South would be the bloodiest
in American history, resulting in the deaths
of more than 620,000 Confederate and Union soldiers
Congressman Tom Moore reveals a fascinating secret tucked inside the U.S. Capitol — the Lincoln Room. Once a quiet spot where President Abraham Lincoln sat reading by the fireplace during his time in the House, the room now draws attention not only for its historical charm but also for what lies beneath it. Moore teases a hidden mystery beneath the floorboards, inviting visitors to explore one of the Capitol’s most intriguing and lesser-known secrets.

The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled in favor of the Trump administration, allowing it to end the Biden-era humanitarian parole program that granted temporary legal status to migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela. The decision potentially paves the way for the deportation of over 500,000 migrants. Liberal justices, including Jackson and Sotomayor, dissented, citing the ruling’s human cost. The case highlights the ongoing legal battle over immigration authority and could influence future policies, including birthright citizenship.

At least 12 people were injured in a mass shooting in Little River, South Carolina, on Memorial Day weekend. Horry County Police responded to reports of gunfire Sunday night.

No suspects or motives have been identified, and investigations into both incidents are ongoing as the community reels from the violence.
