Whether at a barbecue or fireworks or a family gathering, or however you choose to spend today, a reminder that words written almost two and a half centuries ago have never been more resonant than they are right now:
Well! The llist of King George's offenses seems blackly current. This, not the Ten Commandments, ought in my opinion to be on classroom walls. Thanks, Matt.
Wow. Such a simple post, but it says so much. We don't read the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution enough. The American people hardly understand what they say. But this was a nice reminder for me and really hit home. Thank you for taking us back to our foundation.
Wow. This could have been written today now in 2025. Very powerful. I stand with this and want to make us return to sanity and help this country become better than it was before Trump came in this past year. I once had a business that failed. My motto became: “I worked hard, but I did not work right.” So now, I am retired. I am white and privileged and feel that I want to do what I can to protect those who need protecting and fight and resist and assist this country to return to some semblance of sanity once more and go for better times. Let’s create the best we can for our descendants…
Talia, I am honored to join you. I am a traditional rebel, having actively fought against the system for ages. But yes, talk about feeling patriotism for several months now, here I am and wanting to keep on fighting but fighting for and not against What we have had and make it better. Wishing you the very best and thank you for your encouragement!🥰
Since today is the day after my birthday, I’m usually in a pretty good and happy mood. But there’s no happiness today for millions and millions of Americans! My heart goes out to everyone that this big ugly bill has affected and the many more it’s going to affect. Besides Trump being the most corrupt president in American history, he’s also the personification of evil! The antichrist? I used to think so but now I know so!! God help us to get through the next three years and nine months unless something in our government can happen prior to that! The ones in Congress that can and want to stop him, do not have the power to do it themselves. And the ones that do have the power have no spine or balls to do it. Today is a very dark day in America.
And once again, trump will try to make it all about himself and his “success” in passing this disgraceful bill. It’s no accident that he attached the signing of the “big bogus bill” to our most cherished holiday in order to make it appear that the bill is supported by all Americans. He tried (and failed!) to pull a similar stunt on June 14th.
2/3 of Americans vehemently oppose this bill. So, of course, trump and MAGA will malign them. Be ready for it.
We are in Paris and tried to find a demonstration to join, but declined to join the strike against airlines. Since Nitre Dame is closed, we will pay our respects at the Bastille.

You’re right. Civics should be a requirement. Too bad that cutbacks for public schools necessitated the removal of these classes, among others.

Thank you Guida. There’s a name for your dedication. It’s called patriotism.
Allow me to join you.

How convenient, deceitful and divisive.
Matt, Would you please read this post to Congress and the SCOTUS?
And a Happy 4th of July to you too, Matt.
As for our Republic?
Yes. We WILL keep it.
This is so outrageous and from an ice agent. I am sharing this everywhere.I can, and I hope you do the same.

Thank you. Everyone should read it today.
