ALAN K. HENDERSON: Musings on the Declaration of Independence. “These ends are summarized as the rights to “Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” To the untrained eye the last two may seem synonymous, but they speak of freedom from undue government coercion and freedom of peaceable individual initiative, respectively. The Declaration lists 27 grievances deemed serious enough to warrant the colonists to ‘throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.’ As I see it, they boil down to four basic principles.”

AMERICA AT 250, STILL ARGUING ABOUT THE THINGS THAT MADE IT WORTH CELEBRATING: The fireworks have faded, the confetti is being swept from the floor, and America is back to doing what it has always done best and worst: arguing, loudly, about liberty.

IT’S A TELL:

The communist always must destroy your history. History is what attaches you to something. Memories make a home. The communist attacks your history to unmoor you from your home, so you won’t fight him when he demolishes it and renovates it in his image. https://t.co/vnoLWIPAYj

HMM: Fitness influencer banned from flight for attempting to board ‘naked’ amid record-breaking heatwave. Judging by the photo she’s not indecently dressed — this is the kind of athleisure outfit I see at Target or the mall on hot days around here. So what has Lufthansa’s panties in a twist? “The airline stated that passengers must wear clothing ‘appropriate to the character of a public journey’ that does not impair the well-being of fellow travelers from diverse backgrounds, according to reports.”

“Diverse backgrounds.” Probably means Muslims. Now setting wardrobe standards for European airlines.

WELL, YOU KNOW THE LEFTIST VERSION IS A LIE BECAUSE THAT’S WHAT LEFTISTS DO: Roger Kimball: A Tale of Two Countries: On the 250th anniversary of the Declaration, America’s story is cast as either triumphant inheritance or unfinished grievance, with no neutral ground in between.

THEY DON’T LIKE IT WHEN YOU CALL OUT COMMUNISTS. THOSE ARE THEIR FRIENDS. Trump’s Mount Rushmore Speech Outrages the Media Like Nothing Since the Days of Reagan.

HORRIBLE LITTLE MAN. SHOULD BE EXILED FROM POLITICS. AND PROBABLY FROM AMERICA.

So Mamdani is now trying to clean up after himself following that horrifically hateful speech he gave. Yet he still cannot help himself. Even on his best behavior, with an army of advisors undoubtedly telling him not to further besmirch America on the Fourth of July, he still… https://t.co/Jmi2qT9CWY

Even the lefties at Merriam-Webster had fun in the run-up to today:

Why is it ‘cancelled’ in the U.K. but ‘canceled’ in the U.S.?

Because we gave them that L in 1776.

Old Blighty’s clapped out talking points rebutted in style:

When Reuters sent out their photographer to shoot this clearly staged photo, couldn’t they have also dispatched a reporter to write up a story as well?

I’m not gonna speculate as to who these guys are, although the fact that some intrepid journalist hasn’t tracked that down by this point leaves certain implications

Do the Patriot Front guys do anything besides marching around in suspiciously clean khakis, masks and baseball caps?  Is there any burning, looting, statue toppling or podium stealing? They seem very much like the Monty Python sketch about would-be bank robbers afraid of breaking the law:

UPDATE:

I just think it’s funny that the “Patriot Front” jabroneys are too embarrassed to show their faces carrying the American flag. Not very patriotic.

Likewise, it’s funny that people who call themselves American patriots carry flags for a cause that sought to destroy America.… https://t.co/2g83ipuK2I
