"We are the strongest and most powerful country on Earth. And by the grace of God, the United States of America is the most successful, most accomplished, most exceptional nation ever to exist in human history." - President DONALD J. TRUMP 🇺🇸
JUST IN: Vice President JD Vance calls on Americans to reject "zero sum thinking" and division as the nation marks its historic 250th birthday.
Speaking on the milestone anniversary, Vance emphasized that American history is defined by unity and a shared mission, rather than a narrow focus on the nation's past flaws.
"What I'd ask you to do, my fellow Americans, on our 250th birthday, is to reject the two dimensional view of your fellow citizens, and reject the two dimensional view of your country."
“Reject that America is a place for zero sum thinking because it is not, our history is one of people carving a great civilization out of the wilderness.”
“Reject the view of your nation that sees only its sins, but not its grace and its greatness." | @America250 #freedom250 #america250
Two hundred and fifty years ago, a new chapter in history began.
Today, we honor the people, the ideals, and the enduring spirit that have shaped our nation across generations.
Happy Independence Day, and Happy 250th Birthday, America! 🇺🇸
O say can you see, by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming,
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there;
O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave? 🇺🇸
"We want kids to be taught to love our country. They should — it is the greatest country in the history of the world."
White House Press Secretary @karolineleavitt said more parents are turning to homeschooling, private schools and Christian schools because they don't want their children to be indoctrinated.
Speaking on @JesseBWatters Primetime, Leavitt argued parents are seeking alternatives to public education and said schools should teach children to appreciate and love the United States.
"My school forced me to teach my kindergarten buddy about changing his gender using a book called My Shadow is Pink." A 12 year old, standing next to President Trump at the White House Religious Liberty Commission. Forced into it in fifth grade. Bullied for his faith after his family objected.
Independence Day belongs to every single American. Do not let the legacy media tell you what America is. They have no idea. Understand that America isn’t worth celebrating because she’s perfect; she’s worth celebrating because she is ours. A nation that loses the habit of celebrating itself will eventually lose the desire to preserve itself.
This weekend is a once-in-a-lifetime moment. We will never see America’s 250th ever again. If you’re near D.C., bring your kids and grandkids to the National Mall. Stand in front of the Capitol, read the words carved into the Lincoln Memorial, and show them exactly who built this country. Stay for the fireworks. It's going to be a spectacle unlike anything the world has ever seen.
And if you aren't in D.C., find a real fireworks show that is actually celebrating this country, not some corporate party blasting “Born in the USA” that has no idea what Independence Day even means. Open the photo album of this great nation with your kids, show up for our history, and let’s celebrate the greatest country on God's green earth.
God bless America.
NEW: "I know they got it wrong, but that's okay."
President Trump renewed his push to end birthright citizenship and criticized the Supreme Court after it struck down his attempt to eliminate the practice.
Trump touted his administration's push for a merit-based society, saying "our country now is based again on merit."
'WITHOUT COURAGE, THERE IS NO AMERICA TODAY.' Trump on the 250th year: American courage won our independence, ended slavery, and freed billions from tyranny. And we're not losing it to a group of losers.
I have a feeling Trump KNEW the Supreme Court would overturn his birthright citizenship changes. He says he has a plan for what to do next. I have a few suggestions as well:
- Strengthen border security, interior enforcement, and visa restrictions.
- Increase removal of noncitizens before they have US-born children.
- Limit federal/state benefits for illegal immigrants and require proof of parental status for as much as constitutionally possible.
- Cut back and tighten H-1B, student, and tourist visas.
- Improve the tracking of immigration status for birth records.
Justice Jackson, Kagan, and Sotomayor ruled against women having equal protection under the law.
Liberal women, yet again, prove to be the biggest hurdle women face.
🚨 JUST IN: Sheridan Gorman's angel mom just dropped this raw truth nuke straight to Democrat members of Congress
"I don't understand why it's only the REPUBLICAN side that cares about our American children!"
"Basically what you just did, what you said was, 'I'm so sorry for your loss. I have a daughter too. I have a son. I feel your pain...'"
"You DON'T feel my pain. Because the next words out of your mouth were, 'BUT.'"
"There's no 'BUT' when your child is in a coffin!"
"And I need you to understand that. And if you ever want to talk about it, I'm here, I'm going to buy you a bench. I'm going to buy. You can put that on the record. I'm going to buy Congress the bench. And they can come and sit and hold my hand and look me in the eye and explain to me why illegal immigrants are more important than my daughter. I really want to know what because I don't understand!"
'I RESPECTFULLY DISSENT': Justice Clarence Thomas issued a scathing dissent after the Supreme Court upheld birthright citizenship, arguing the majority diminished the value of American citizenship.
"I feel absolutely vindicated."
Riley Gaines reacted to the Supreme Court's decision allowing states to keep biological males out of women's sports, saying years of criticism and personal attacks only make the ruling more meaningful.
Gaines said she hopes the decision serves as a "clarion call" for more female athletes to "link arms," arguing the ruling will have a lasting impact for future generations of girls, including her daughter.
Elder @RonaldARasband of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles said the United States has been preserved by God “for the great unfolding of the gospel in the last days.” Speaking in the Marriott Center in Provo, Utah as part of America’s Freedom Festival, he said, “here our Lord intended for liberty to take hold so that agency might thrive.”
In temple news, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints will dedicate seven new temples over four consecutive Sundays later this fall. The seven houses of the Lord — the Miraflores Guatemala City Guatemala, Ephraim Utah, Managua Nicaragua, Montpelier Idaho, Cody Wyoming, San Luis Potosi and Wichita Kansas temples — will each be dedicated on one of four Sundays: Oct. 11, Oct. 18, Oct. 25 or Nov. 1. Three of those Sundays will see double temple dedications, making this the first time so many same-day dedications have come so close together.
