From Washington to Hollywood, the left thumbed its nose at the United States on its 245th birthday.
Stolen. Racist. Unfree. Unfair.
From Hollywood to Washington, liberals used the occasion of America's 245th birthday to continue their relentless assault on the greatest democracy the world has ever created.
"Reminder: The United States was founded on the unjust treatment of Native Americans, Africans and other people of color," actress Alyssa Milano crowed in a TikTok video.
Rep. Cori Bush, a Democrat from Missouri, challenged the notion of the land of the free.
"When they say that the 4th of July is about American freedom, remember this: the freedom they're referring to is for White people," she tweeted. "This land is stolen land and Black people still aren't free."
A group of Georgetown University students cast their hatred of country in a montage captured on video.
"I feel embarrassed to be an American every day," one student declared in the video. "I think a lot of things about this country are really embarrassing, just, like, I mean, racist history, colonization, even currently, just what's going on with politics and the cops."
Even supposedly neutral news media joined in the bashing.
National Public Radio tweeted out a quote from the Declaration of Independence, then declared America's founding document to be afflicted "with flaws and deeply ingrained hypocrisies."
Not to be outdone, The New York Times published an article suggesting Old Glory — the banner under which U.S. troops liberated Europe from Nazi oppression — may now be a symbol of division.
"A Fourth of July Symbol of Unity That May No Longer Unite," the headline blared.
While some elitists talked down America, most in the country celebrated the Fourth of July in traditional fashion.
The Navy Blue Angels roared through the skies in a spectacular Kansas City display, fireworks exploded above the Washington Monument and New York's Statue of Liberty on Sunday night, and Americans barbecued and traveled in record numbers after a year of being cooped up by the pandemic.
And prominent conservatives peppered social media with messages celebrating the freedoms bestowed by America's Founding Fathers.
"I'm proud to be an American, and I'm proud to be free," Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas tweeted. "That's why I will continue to fight each and every day to protect our God-given liberties."
Did he go to Cancun this weekend?

There are a great many articles concerning this case. But, the bottom line is, a Black Slave Owners Lawsuit Codified Permanent Slavery in the USA. This lawsuit filed by a Black Slave Owner turned an Indentured Servant Blackman into a Permanent Slave and the PROPERTY of this Black Slave Owner.
The 4th?
They hate America every day of the year.
All done in the comfort of their posh homes they were able to afford by living in this country, scumbags ingrates
Are we just going to pretend that Indian tribes didn’t steal land from other Indian tribes??\\
Or took prisoners and made them slaves ?
Or worshiped the creation instead of the creator ?
It’s the Darwinian noble savages myopia,
that groups all Indians together.
When in fact the tribes were just as diverse as the rest of the world.
Good and bad traits and actions and cultures.
You bring up an excellent point.
(3/8’s here, Choctaw and cherokee.
100% melting pot red white and black american and grateful for that and my country )
We ?

Thanks
I am one of those who liberals mocked. I am a 68 year old Vietnam/Cold War veteran. I was a GI Brat, during The Cuban Misssile Crisis. I was taught, and still hold, that both Communiism and Socialism are bad for the U.S., and the world. I hold The Constitution and The Bill of Rights are enough, for every citizen. I believe the 2nd Amendment says ‘arms’, without any delineation of ‘what or which kind’, period. As to the 1st Amendment, free speech means free speech. Freedom of religion means how you express it, openly, without anybody stopping you,and the same for me. Nobody is wrong, be it the triumvirate God, or the spaghetti monster, or Chthulhu.
I voted for the man who saw what was wrong with this country, and like Popeye, said “THATS ALL I CAN STAND, CANT STANDS NO MORE’
