I hadn’t read the Declaration of Independence since high school history class. Ah, yes, history class! In fact we had American history throughout the tenth grade, then world history during our junior year. When I listen to the TikTok crowd spew the nonsense they champion today, I think how easily their knuckle-headed thinking could have been cured with a few good history classes. Alas, I don’t see much hope for the future, as long as the teachers in our urban areas are in the clutches of politicians and unions with a far different agenda from real education.

Now rereading the document for the first time in decades (shame on me for taking so long), I had forgotten that the bulk of the text is a list of grievances suffered by the American colonists at the hands of the king and various elements under his tyrannical regime. What has truly stunned me these 250 years later, however, is how familiar these grievances feel in our contemporary situation. Let’s take a peek at the exact text, and see if anything feels uncomfortably close to home (the “He” refers to King George, of course, and I will use the original spelling and punctuation):

“He has refused to Assent to Laws”

Hmm, every “sanctuary state” governor today for starters…

“He has made Judges dependent of his Will alone”

Hmm, activist judges anybody?

“He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people”

Hmm, 87,000 new armed IRS agents. Ring a bell?

“For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent”

Hmm, ever looked at your tax bill?

“…transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation and tyranny…”

Hmm, thirty million military-age males pouring across our open borders from 2020 to 2024…

“He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us”

Hmm, BLM and Antifa riots…

SHORT VERSION: LEAVE US ALONE!

The very essence of the Declaration of Independence is a concerted celebration of God’s gift of our “unalienable” right to “Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.” It was argued, researched, debated yet again, drafted by Jefferson, then edited by Adams, Franklin, and others. Together the bravest men stood together against the storm of tyranny and gambled it all. As I reread it today, I literally shed tears at those miraculous words:

“And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortune and our sacred Honor.”

And then, of course, there were those who shed more than tears. They shed their blood, watched their homes burn, and too many gave the ultimate sacrifice. Whether they formed local militias or joined the Continental Army, colonists now dedicated to the cause, gambled their very lives. One of those Americans was my ninth generation ancestor. He fought in one of the most consequential battles of the American Revolution, the Battle of Cowpens. I am forever honored that his blood runs in my veins.

I know that this will be a joyful and glorious weekend for all of you, God willing. It should also be, if I may presume to say, a solemn one as well. The sacrifices made by simple men and women those many years ago have made these precious rights and this glorious day possible. Take a moment and honor them in your heart. I know I will.

Not merely an idea.

Not an economic zone.

Not for the world.

A nation, a people, and our home. 🇺🇸

You only had a 2.7% chance of being born an American.

If you were lucky enough to be a native born American, you already won at life.

🇺🇸🇺🇸 Happy 250th Birthday, USA 🇺🇸🇺🇸

🚨Betrayal Alert
@SenRonJohnson , why did you gavel in today instead of demanding Senator Thune cancel recess and bring everyone back to DC to pass the SAVE Act and end birthright citizenship?
Another Senate snake betraying the will of the American people, sitting on his hands while our Republic faces real danger and @POTUS is blocked from making recess appointments.

Patriots, repost and ask Senator Johnson why he continues to obstruct the America First agenda.

[David J Harris Jr @DavidJHarrisJr]

🚨BREAKING: Justice Brett Kavanaugh just opened a clear path for reforming birthright citizenship.

In yesterday’s Supreme Court ruling on Trump’s executive order, Kavanaugh agreed with the outcome but wrote separately to clarify that the order did not violate the 14th Amendment itself — it only conflicted with current federal statute.

He explicitly stated that Congress has the power to amend the statute or pass new legislation creating exceptions to automatic birthright citizenship for children born to parents who are unlawfully present or only temporarily in the United States.

This is a major signal from the Court that the issue can be fixed through ordinary legislation without needing a constitutional amendment.

[ThePersistence @ScottPresler]

@BasedMikeLee @Lillian71433561 Thank you for being one of the few Senators to publicly state that we should end recess

in order to pass the SAVE America Act.

🚨#BREAKING: A police officer in Phoenix has rented out an ENTIRE 144-SEAT MOVIE THEATER for over 100 middle schoolers after their end-of-year field trip fell through, so they could see Toy Story 5.

When they got there, he realized many couldn't afford popcorn or drinks...

..so he bought EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM popcorn, candy, and a drink too.

His name is Sean Reavies,

For many kids, it was their first time ever inside of a movie theater in their lives.

When the kids asked how they could pay him back, he told them:

"As you get older in life, help other people. As a payback to me. Would you do that? That's all I ask of you."

MORE OF THIS!!!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[ThePersistence @ScottPresler]

Attach SAVE America Act to FISA!

Attach SAVE America Act to NDAA!

Attach SAVE America Act to budget reconciliation 3.0!

Do whatever it takes to get the SAVE America Act passed.

[James Woods @RealJamesWoods]

It’s pointless to continue the fight against the madness. Democrats in America thrive on communism, fraud, and illegal immigration, turning a blind eye to crime, while feckless Republicans huff and puff and just sit on their hands. It’s hopeless, and I’m sick of it all.

[C3 @C_3C_3]

McConnell found unconscious of a suspected heart attack days after voting NO on the SAVE America Act.

Against his constituents.

Who really voted?

Senator for 40 years.

Everything wrong with Congress.

Congress isn’t meant to be a crooked nursing home.

[Nick Sortor @nicksortor]

🚨 JUST IN: Mitch McConnell was found UNCONSCIOUS in his home before being rushed to the hospital last month, per TMZ

We still have NO IDEA where he is or if he's still hospitalized.

This RINO dinosaur has to GO. His time's up. Put him in a nursing home -- not the US Senate

McConnell has been having major health issues for YEARS, like freezing up. Which is why he hardly speaks to the public anymore.

@LeaderJohnThune @SenateGOP @TaxCuts ▪️Mail-in ballots can be received AFTER Election Day

▪️Children of illegal aliens obtain birthright citizenship

▪️You refuse to secure our elections & require photo voter ID/proof of citizenship to vote

[Derrick Evans @DerrickEvans4WV]

If you see a pregnant foreigner, contact ICE immediately.

The future of our country depends on it.

CLARENCE THOMAS JUST PUBLISHED THE EXACT ARGUMENT FOR WHY THE SUPREME COURT'S BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP RULING IS CONSTITUTIONALLY WRONG

Not a political objection. Not a policy disagreement. NAMED HISTORY. SPECIFIC TEXT. Amendment by amendment.

📜 14th Amendment, 1868 — "ONE pervading purpose": securing equal citizenship for FREED SLAVES after the Civil War
📜 Reconstruction Congress intent — zero evidence the drafters contemplated children of foreign temporary visitors or illegal aliens
📜 "Subject to the jurisdiction" clause — Thomas: means full political allegiance, not mere physical presence on US soil
📜 The majority opinion — Thomas says it REPURPOSED the Amendment to protect preferred rights the drafters NEVER contemplated
📜 Thomas's direct quote — those rights "CANNOT find support in the text today"
📜 His warning on the ruling — "I am not sure that today's opinion will stand the test of time"
📜 Thomas during April 2026 oral arguments — probed whether immigration debates even existed when the 14th was written
📜 His core distinction — freed slaves were entitled to citizenship because they were Americans with no other homeland; children of foreign nationals are not in the same category
📜 Roberts and Barrett — joined the liberal bloc in the 6-3 majority in Trump v. Barbara
📜 Gorsuch — joined Thomas in dissent; Alito filed a separate dissent

💀 91 pages
💀 1 purpose the 14th Amendment actually had, per Thomas
💀 ZERO rights the Reconstruction Congress contemplated for children of foreign nationals
💀 100% of Thomas's argument grounded in the specific post-Civil War historical record — not modern policy preference

Every argument on this list is anchored in the text and history of the Amendment. Not in what the Court wishes it said. In what the people who wrote it actually intended.

The Court's ruling stands. But Thomas put a 91-page marker on the record.

Thomas's dissent is still ticking. These are the arguments at the core of it.

I'll keep you updated as this unfolds, turn on notifications this is EXTREMELY important.
