To the holy city of Byzantium.

God Bless America. 🇺🇸

[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?

[Russ Roberts @EconTalker]

Patriotism is pretending a nation is without flaws? Strawman. Patriotism is loving your country, flaws and all. It means being proud of what your country aspires to be.

[Fourth-Wall Break]

Overnight, this account tripled in size. Two out of three of you reading this are new here. Welcome!

If you’re not familiar with this model, I post in the present tense, pretending that I’m live in 1776 posting as events are happening.

The principal thing that I want to say to you all is that this account does not exist simply for July 4, 1776. This is an account that covers all events from 250 years ago worldwide, live, in perpetuity. That means that this will continue as long as I do. So don’t click away on the Fourth of July!
