The French, the Russians, and the Chinese all believed they could perfect human nature if they just broke enough eggs. Our founders believed the opposite. They believed man was fallen, that power corrupts, that no one — no king, no assembly, no vanguard of the proletariat — could be trusted with unchecked authority. So they built a system that assumes the worst about us and protects us from each other and from ourselves. They didn’t dedicate the nation to a perfect man. They dedicated it to a proposition. That all men are created equal. Endowed by their Creator. Not by the state, not by the party, not by the revolution — by their Creator, which means no revolution can take those rights away, because no revolution granted them in the first place.
That is why people are willing to die to get here — and I mean die. They cross deserts. They pile into boats that have no business on open water. They wait years in line for a piece of paper. Nobody, and I mean nobody, is dying to break into Russia. Nobody is stacking themselves into a shipping container to reach the People’s Republic of China. The traffic runs in one direction, and it has for two hundred and fifty years, and that one fact tells you everything the propagandists on the left and the isolationists on the right don’t want you to know. The poor of the earth, the persecuted of the earth, the ambitious of the earth — they vote with their feet, and they vote for us. A refugee understands what a tenured professor cannot: that this is the best there is, because he has seen the alternatives up close, and the professor has only read about them in a book he misunderstood.

Listening to Zohran Mamdani, I can't help but think what a small and hateful man he is.
Mamdani holds such disdain for our nation because he does not understand the cause and effect of American exceptionalism.
We are strong because our nation is exceptional. And what is exceptional about America is that our rights come from God!

#OTD in 1854, the Republican Party held its first convention in Jackson, Michigan. Founded as an anti-slavery party, the GOP was determined to ensure that the promises of our founding documents were fulfilled for all Americans. May it always be thus - happy birthday to the GOP!

Josh Shapiro could have offered a moderate voice in the upcoming elections, resisting the rising radical movement in his party. Instead, he proved to be just another politician thinking of the next election rather than the next generation. https://t.co/LofPk6KlNy
Do you know why I'm pissed off on this July 4th? Because I'm seeing the greatest country in the history of the world increasingly bathing in the infinity pool of parasitic suicidal empathy (as has occurred with much of the West). PLEASE activate your inner honey badger and defend American freedom. Do not take American Exceptionalism for granted. Fight! Fight! Fight!
Plenty of meetings in Washington over the next few days - our American friends are watching Britain with genuine astonishment at how fast we are falling.
I am making the argument that it’s not too late to turn it around. Just.
Good morning friends. Sunny & breezy in London today. Well it’s a new week & a new beginning . Not much change in the geopolitical situation. Not in Ukraine war nor the US - Iranian conflict. They are warning us re: a new heat wave! Take care!

Everything the left wants to do to America suddenly makes sense when you realize they have zero respect, love, or appreciation for this country.
This explains everything.
Every American needs to read it.
