After Lincoln's assassination in April 1865, President Andrew Johnson switched from the Radical to the moderate camp. By 1866, however, Johnson, with no party affiliation, broke with the moderate Republicans and aligned himself more with the Democrats who opposed equality and the Fourteenth Amendment. Radicals attacked the policies of Johnson, especially his veto of the Civil Rights Act of 1866, which protected the civil rights of freedmen.

Oh oh oh... I misread your statement. Duh.

I thought you'd said that the Republicans were doing the lynchings.

Sorry, had martini in hand at the time :)
