Continental Congress HAS SIGNED A DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE! 

The UNITED STATES are OFFICIALLY INDEPENDENT from BRITAIN.

LIBERTY BELLS ring out throughout Philadelphia; the streets ERUPT IN ECSTASY.

[Selene Mariposa @Selene_Mariposa]

America turns 250 today.

Let me read back the resume.

We started by telling a king to pound sand, in writing.

By 1803 we bought half a continent from France for about four cents an acre.

We fought a war with ourselves and somehow stayed one country.

We strung a railroad across the entire thing.

We handed the world the lightbulb, the telephone, and the airplane in about thirty years flat.

Then a man named Willis Carrier invented air conditioning and made half the planet actually livable.

You are welcome, Texas. You are welcome, Dubai.

Twice the whole world caught fire, and twice we showed up and helped put it out.

We split the atom.

We put men on the moon in 1969.

Then we went back and hit golf balls up there, because why not.

We invented jazz, blues, rock and roll, and hip-hop, and the whole planet is still dancing to it.

We put a burger and fries on every corner of the earth.

We built rockets that fly themselves home and land standing straight up.

We flew a helicopter on Mars.

We launched a car into actual space and it is still out there cruising.

We also invented ranch dressing and somehow talked the entire world into putting it on pizza.

Priorities.

We even invented three of our own sports so we could win them.

Baseball, basketball, and football.

Real football, the kind with hands, because we named it and we are not taking corrections.

The rest of the planet can keep soccer, which is fine, we are hosting it in our backyard this summer anyway.

And yes, Canadian football exists, wider field, extra man, one fewer down, and we try very hard not to think about it.

Frankly it was generous of us to invent our own games.

If we put all that energy into soccer, nobody else would ever lift that trophy again.

We would win it so often they would just rename it the America’s Cup and hand us the keys.

You are welcome for the suspense.

And in 2026 we threw a birthday so big a German tourist live-tweeted our gas stations to 750,000 people.

Not every chapter was clean.

We argued, we stumbled, we fixed what we broke, and we kept building.

That is the whole trick.

Two hundred and fifty years in, and we are still the loudest, brightest, most improbable experiment on the map.

Not bad for a country that started as a strongly worded letter to a king.

Happy birthday, America.

@_graceephotos Holy buckets! You got THE photo! Good for you. Have you considered officiating? You seem to pay attention, and you don't miss major plays. 🤣

I kid, I kid. I enjoy your photos too much. Keep taking them. Still waiting for my autograph, btw 😊

Kirk Ferentz is still out there coaching the fine details like it’s 1999, and that’s why the standard never slips.

I appreciate all the workers at @IGHSAU @IHSAA State Track and Field Meet. But after watching girls 4A and boys 3A long jump, I hope all the people raking the sand pit get preferred parking, and free massages. That's hard work!

The best part of @IowaHoops making it to the Sweet 16 and the Elite 8 is having Kevin Harlan on the call.

So good. 🎙️

[CJ Moore @CJMooreHoops]

Ben McCollum is at his best in the final 24 hours before tip-off, when he crams for the test and usually finds the answers.

Shout out to a fantastic career to Kylie Feuerbach.

One of the best defenders in the country and just was a joy to watch play the last few years.

[Sean Bock @SBock247]

Now I see why the Iowa coaches wanted a review at the end of the half.

[David Eickholt @DavidEickholt]

Jan Jensen is 1 of 1. This program is 1 of 1. Spend four minutes and watch this. Might want to get the tissues ready:

Her last Big Ten tournament game, Hannah Stuelke still out there signing autographs.
What a kid.
