PATRIOTIC SPIRIT: The Salute to America event may have been evacuated due to weather, but these Americans kept the celebration going, forming a massive street party outside the event on the Fourth of July.

The entire National Mall fireworks show in about a minute, seen from the webcam at the top of the Washington Monument starting with the B1 Lancer flyover.

Zero female justices were involved in any of the objectively worst/most evil Supreme Court decisions "of all time," like Dred Scott, Plessy v Ferguson, Korematsu, or even, from a pro-life/conservative perspective, Roe v Wade.

One of these women, Amy Coney Barrett, even helped achieve the long-time goal of people like @MattWalshBlog by overturning Roe v Wade, yet he's now labeling her one of the "worst Supreme Court justices of all time" for upholding the long-standing view on an admittedly complicated issue re birthright citizenship.

I don't really see an explanation for this kind of generational crashout other than rank sexism.

American conservatives used to believe that parents should be the ones parenting their own kids.

Don’t let the United States become like the United Kingdom.

We’re just a few stupid laws away from a total surveillance state that destroys liberty in the name of “protecting kids.”

[Hannah Cox @HannahDCox]

The Republican Party is dead for anyone who loves liberty.

That should have been obvious for years, but it will take Massie’s ouster for a lot of people to finally accept it.

We were wrong to think it was ever a vehicle. It would be easier to teach Democrats economics than it would be to teach the MAGA base common sense and morals.

[Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald]

I can't think of a more glaring and revealing political irony than a politician who called his ideology "America First" proudly *boasting* that he's far more popular in Israel than in his own country: in fact, so popular there that he could be elected Prime Minister of Israel.

[Thomas Massie for Congress @MassieforKY]

I lost the election but we started a revolution. Keep the flame of LIBERTY burning my friends! I will continue to put People and Principles before Party. America First! 🇺🇸

If legislators always vote with the President, we have a king.

If legislators always vote with the prevailing wind, we have mob rule.

If legislators always vote with the Constitution, we have a Republic.

[Dave Smith @ComicDaveSmith]

If Massie loses tonight, he should run for President.

If Massie wins tonight, he should run for President.

[FireFighterDev @fire_starter457]

If your version of Christianity has you outraged by a halftime show in Spanish, but not the president threatening to wipe out an entire civilization… then I don’t think the guy you are following is Jesus.

[Pastor Ben @BenjaminPDixon]

The Pope literally just asked for peace and MAGA is losing it

[James Martin, SJ @JamesMartinSJ]

So God loves only American troops? Not innocent people who lost their lives in Iran? Where was God's "miraculous protection" for them? This is the inevitable result of believing that God is on "our side." It's making a false god in our image: a god who despises Iranians.

[Tom Santos @tommysantos14]

I love this post.

Because it very clearly demonstrates how one-dimensional the MAGA mind has become and how thoroughly personal bias has replaced basic reasoning.

Among people with normal, non-cult-adjacent cognitive function, it is genuinely not complicated to understand that someone can live one way while supporting other people's right to live a different way.

Psychologists will be studying this mindset for decades.

[Josh Howerton @howertonjosh]

Coming to believe ~90% of the political differences among Christians boil down to a failure to distinguish between the Biblical roles of the individual, the church, and the State.

No, God did not command governments to forcibly redistribute wealth.

Yes, God commanded Christians as individuals to practice charity.

Individual Christians in Acts “gave willingly and not under compulsion.”

Christians in Acts did not vote for the Emperor to increase the marginal tax rate and call that “generosity.”

[TheRealThelmaJohnson @TheRealThelmaJ1]

MAGA is now like "I'll take mean tweets, $8 gas and nuclear war over gender neutral restrooms any day"

[Amity @amitylee13]

I love my country.

I hate our government.

[Ana Kasparian @AnaKasparian]

Loving your country should never be synonymous with loving your government.

[COCO @TWOTIMESABITCH]

during Ramadan my husband, who is Catholic, refused to eat during lunch so that he could sit in solidarity with his Muslim co-workers. despite their reassurances, he said he felt bad. So today, which is a holy day (Good Friday) for us Catholics, his Muslim friends fasted with him until noon and no one had meat. they all had vegan/vegetarian meals. my heart is so grateful for these signs of love ❤️

Republicans when the Pope condemns active wars of aggression but doesn’t talk about basketball drama
