ThankYouBebeReid@TrustGod7733 As a black woman, I don’t believe that racism or police reform are the problems. The real national emergency is the anti-American, anti-capitalism, anti-authority, anti-God beliefs that being taught by colleges/universities & in dysfunctional homes.

[Christopher Yuan @christopheryuan]

Dad and Mom legally immigrated here in the 1960s literally penniless. They both worked their tails off…as we should. Dad got two doctorates while Mom worked minimum wage jobs to support her husband in school AND take care of two boys.

And most importantly, we all came to Christ’s here in America. I am so grateful for this country. Let’s stop apologizing that this isn’t a perfect country. Let’s just state the fact that this is the BEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD!!!

Happy 250th!!!

[Peter Schweizer @peterschweizer]

There have been 4 major revolutions in the past 250 years: American, French, Russian, and Chinese. Only one led to individual rights and prosperity. The others led to mass death and tyranny. The US revolution was unique because it said two things: 1. Our rights come from God not from the govt. 2. Humans are power -hungry so we need to limit govt power. So the next time someone attacks the nation of one revolution that succeeded and recycles the the idea of those that miserably failed, you can ask them: are you ignorant, or malicious?

Good morning to everyone in Massachusetts who agrees that this story everyone should share.

While our governor decided Massachusetts didn’t need to show up at the America 250 Fair on the National Mall, one proud Bay Stater refused to let our state be missing from this historic celebration.

Donna Festinger paid her own way to Washington, D.C. and has been personally staffing the Massachusetts booth so visitors wouldn’t walk by an empty exhibit from the birthplace of American freedom. She’s out there representing all of us with heart, pride, and zero political games.

It’s outrageous that the governor didn’t see the importance of representing the constituents here in our state at a once-in-a-generation event honoring 250 years of America. But Donna stepped up when leadership didn’t, and she’s saving the day for Massachusetts.

Thank you, Donna. You’re a true patriot and a shining example of what it means to love this state and this country.

This was a great speech. If he could keep it together just like this for the rest of his term it would be awesome. Very clear message no matter what party you belong to.

[Franklin Graham @Franklin_Graham]

The America of 2026 is vastly different than the country our forefathers established in 1776. I hope you’ll join me and Christians across America in praying that we will turn our hearts back to the God of our Fathers so that we will truly be one nation under God.

[James Woods @RealJamesWoods]

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.

[Greg Laurie @greglaurie]

America.

More than a nation. An idea.
A place founded on the revolutionary truth that our rights don’t come from government—they come from God.

People crossed oceans for that dream. Soldiers died to defend it. Generations sacrificed to preserve it.

America has been a force for freedom, a refuge for the oppressed, and a light to the world.

Today, let’s thank those who fought for our liberty—and above all, thank God, who has truly shed His grace on thee.

Happy Birthday, America. May God continue to bless you. 🇺🇸

[Hung Cao @HungCao_VA]

Happy birthday America! April and I are proud to be with our Sailors and Marines today.

[Buzz Patterson @BuzzPatterson]

As an American, every day is Independence Day. Or should be.

Not just when the fireworks light up the sky or the grills fire up on the Fourth. Every single sunrise over this land is a reminder that we are free: free to speak, to dream, to build, to worship, to disagree, and to rise.

We carry the spirit of 1776 in our bones: the courage of farmers and merchants who stared down an empire, the vision of founders who bet everything on “We the People,” and the quiet determination of generations who defended that bet on battlefields, factory floors, and neighborhood streets.

Today, we celebrate the Declaration that birthed a nation unlike any other. But tomorrow, and every day after, we live it.

We teach our kids the value of liberty. We defend the Constitution not as old paper, but as a living promise. We stand for opportunity, for resilience, and for the radical idea that no king, no bureaucrat, and no mob gets to tell a free American who they are or what they can achieve.

From sea to shining sea, may we never take this gift for granted. Happy Independence Day: today, and every day we choose to keep it.

God bless America. ❤️🤍💙

[Allie Beth Stuckey @conservmillen]

Every time I learn something new about our founding, I think, “There’s no way this was all by chance.” Thank the Lord for His providence and grace in the creation of this outstanding nation. Happy 4th to y’all and happy 250th to my beloved America! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[Matt Van Swol @mattvanswol]

🚨#BREAKING: A 28-year-old confirms he has spent the last 10 YEARS of his life interviewing World War II combat veterans to keep their stories alive...

...in fact, for the last 10 years, he has interviewed World War 2 veterans EVERY SINGLE DAY

He started as a teenager, ditching school to ride his BIKE to the local retirement home, walking up to the front desk and asking to, "meet some World War II heroes."

His name is Rishi Sharma.

He's crossed all 50 states and half the world.

He's slept in his car and lived on gas-station food to afford it.

He asks these men for hours of their memories, and then he hands the entire recording to their families...

...FOR FREE

So that 200 years from now, a great-great-grandchild will know not just their hero's name, but how he laughed, how he cried, and what he sacrificed.

Rishi has no military family, his parents immigrated here from India.

He does it out of pure gratitude.

In his words:

"My parents were given the opportunity to immigrate and raise a family because of veterans like these. It's a debt of love I'll spend my entire life trying to repay..."

As one 100-year-old Marine who stormed Iwo Jima told him, remembering the flag going up:

"The hair on my arms still stands up when I think about how beautiful it was."

THAT is America.

250 years of ordinary people doing extraordinary things...

God bless our veterans. 🇺🇸🇺🇸

[Shannon Bream @ShannonBream]

I’ll never get over the blessing of being born and raised in America, especially as a woman and a person of faith. It took courage to launch this experiment. It takes dedication to defend and expand freedom. Liberty requires effort. Never forget that brave men signed their death warrant when they put their names on the Declaration of Independence. The astonishing privileges we enjoy today were never - not once - a guarantee. People sacrificed everything. Do your part to make a more perfect union in every way you can. We owe that to patriots who took the risk. 🇺🇸

Yes, I’m a Black man, and I love America.

Happy 250th Anniversary to the greatest country in the world.

I don’t care who gets mad about it. I don’t care who tells me I’m supposed to hate this country because of my skin color. I don’t care who thinks patriotism has a race.

You will never get me to hate America.

This country gave a foster kid like me a chance. I came from nothing, but because I was born in America, I was able to dream bigger, work harder, fight through every obstacle, build a life, and become the man I am today.

America is not perfect, but I thank God I was born here.

I love the flag. I love the freedom. I love the opportunity. I love the American Dream.

And I’m not ashamed to say it.

So while some people spend today complaining, attacking this country, and trying to shame others for loving it — I’ll be celebrating it.

Happy 250th Anniversary, America.

You can never get me to hate you. 🇺🇸

[Harmeet K. Dhillon @HarmeetKDhillon]

I am one of the world’s luckiest people to be able to celebrate America’s 250th birthday as an American. 🇺🇸 Happy birthday to the greatest nation in human history, a beacon of light in a dark world, a place where principles count for all, not a select few. ♥️ God Bless America!

[Selene Mariposa @Selene_Mariposa]

Two hundred and fifty years ago today, fifty-six men signed their own death warrants.

That is not a metaphor.

Putting your name to the Declaration of Independence was treason against the Crown.

The penalty for treason was the rope.

Every man who signed knew that if the revolution failed, his signature was the evidence that would hang him.

They signed anyway.

These were not desperate men with nothing to lose.

They were lawyers, merchants, planters, and physicians.

Men with land, money, families, and comfortable lives.

They had everything to lose, and they wrote their names down anyway, in ink, where the King could read every one.

Then the war came for them.

Richard Stockton of New Jersey was dragged from his home and thrown in a British prison.

He came out with his health broken and never truly recovered.

Carter Braxton of Virginia watched the British navy sweep his ships from the sea, and much of his fortune went with them.

John Hart was driven from the bedside of his dying wife.

His fields were burned, his mill destroyed, his children scattered into hiding.

He spent more than a year sleeping in forests and caves while soldiers hunted him.

He came home to a fresh grave and an empty house.

That was the cost.

Not a slogan. Not a parade. The actual price, paid by actual men, with their homes and their families and their names.

They closed that document with a single line.

They pledged to each other their Lives, their Fortunes, and their sacred Honor.

And every one of them was asked to make good on all three.

Two hundred and fifty years later, we are still free because they were not afraid.

Happy Independence Day.

Spend it like it was expensive.

Because it was.

JULY 4, 2026 INDEPENDENCE DAY PRAYER:

“Father God, as we celebrate the 250th birthday of this great nation from thirteen (13) original colonies who declared their Independence from Great Britain on July 4, 1776, we humbly declare our total Dependence on your Son Jesus Christ . . . not only for the forgiveness of sin and the gift of eternal life, but also for the healing of America from grave “sins” we, Your People, have committed against you over these last 250 years.🇺🇸

We humble ourselves this day, pray, seek your face, and turn from our wicked ways, knowing full good and well that this is not only what you require, but what you DEMAND before you will hear our prayers, forgive our sin, and heal our land (see 2 Chronicles 7:14).

Through “silence,” compromise, neglect, rebellion, and idolatry we, Your People, have trampled under foot the Son of God, insulting the Spirit of Grace, resulting in total spiritual and moral chaos for our house to the White House!

How much worse punishment awaits us if we don’t repent?

Only you know, Lord.

Forgive us, Lord and continue to have mercy on us for your compassions fail not and are new every morning—great is Your faithfulness toward us—You are our portion and our hope is in You!

We humbly turn to you now, while there is time, and give you our whole hearts (Joel 2:12), recognizing that only in repentance and rest will we be saved (Isaiah 30:15).

Now hear the cries of Your People as you did in the days of Moses your servant and move on our behalf for the sake of Your Great Name and the Covenant you made with Your People through the shed blood of your Son, our risen Savior and King, Jesus Christ.🩸

It’s in His great name and for His glory that we ask all these things, Amen and Amen!”🙏🇺🇸
