All day coverage for Mt. Rushmore, South Dakota 4th of July Celebration.
Yes, it was an inspirational speech - a call to love our country and respect its history despite the current propaganda to the contrary.
That wasn't necessary. We had an open question about what the talking points would be and how the nets would cover the speech. People were making their guesses and then posting the actuals reports.

janetjanet998 isn’t a troll but was showing me what the MSM was tweeting about it because we all were guess their take on the wonderful speech.
..... We believe that our children should be taught to love their country, honor their history, and respect our great American flag. We stand tall, we stand proud, and we only kneel to Almighty God. This is who we are. This is what we believe and these are the values that will guide us as we strive to build an even better and greater future......
..... Those who seek to erase our heritage want Americans to forget our pride and our great dignity so that we can no longer understand ourselves or Americas destiny. In toppling the heroes of 1776, they seek to dissolve the bonds of love and loyalty that we feel for our country and that we feel for each other. Their goal is not a better America, their goal is to end America.....In its place, they want power for themselves,....
..... but just as patriots did in centuries past, the American people will stand in their way and we will win and win quickly and with great dignity."
LOL!
..... "It is time to speak up loudly and strongly and powerfully and defend the integrity of our country...... It is time for our politicians to summon the bravery and determination of our American ancestors...... It is time.... .... It is time to plant our flag and to protect the greatest of this nation for citizens of every race in every city in every part of this glorious land.....
.... For the sake of our honor, for the sake of our children, for the sake of our union, we must protect and preserve our history, our heritage, and our great heroes.
" Here tonight before the eyes of our forefathers, Americans declare again, as we did 244 years ago, that we will not be tyrannized, we will not be demeaned, and we will not be intimidated by bad, evil people.... It will not happen!
....We are the culture that put up the Hoover Dam, laid down the highways, and sculpted the skyline of Manhattan..... We are the people who dreamed the spectacular dream, it was called Las Vegas in the Nevada desert, who built up Miami from the Florida marsh, and who carved our heroes into the face of Mount Rushmore....
.... Americans harnessed electricity, split the atom, and gave the world the telephone and the internet. We settled the Wild West, won two World Wars, landed American astronauts on the moon...And one day very soon, we will plant our flag on Mars.
....We gave the world the poetry of Walt Whitman, the stories of Mark Twain, the songs of Irving Berlin, the voice of Ella Fitzgerald, the style of Frank Sinatra, the comedy of Bob Hope, the power of the Saturn V rocket, the toughness of the Ford F150, and the awesome might of the American aircraft carriers.
Americans must never lose sight of this miraculous story. We should never lose sight of it. Nobody has ever done it like we have done it!
..... We will raise the next generation of American patriots.... We will write the next thrilling chapter of the American adventure.... And we will teach our children to know that they live in a land of legends, that nothing can stop them, and that no one can hold them down..... They will know that, in America, you can do anything, you can be anything, and together, we can achieve anything.....
.....Uplifted by the titans of Mount Rushmore, we will find unity that no one expected.... We will make strides that no one thought possible.... This country will be everything that our citizens have hoped for for so many years, and that our enemies fear, because we will never forget that the American freedom exists for American greatness.... And thats what we have, American greatness....
.... Centuries from now, our legacy will be the cities we built, the champions we forged, the good that we did, and the monuments we created to inspire us all.....
My fellow citizens,...... Americas destiny is in our sights... Americas heroes are embedded in our hearts... Americas future is in our hands... And ladies and gentlemen, the best is yet to come!....
Anyone on the left who finds faults with this incrediable speech today is not An American......it really is that simple.
THANK YOU for posting that POWEFUL part of Trump’s speech!
It is a clarion call for those who are willing to stand up to defend our FREE REPUBLIC rather than to tear down and destroy it!
Interesting...at least you figured it out. :)
I imagine, just like when HD first arrived that there are not too many 4k channels available at the moment..
Very late now and hard to answer posts when I’m on a roll hunting and posting photos......(which BTW are getting harder and harder to find)...but thank you....and yes the entire event was wonderful and very insperational.....makes all Americans proud!......any who aren’t....”Frankly I don’t give a damn!”
Here’s the entire transcript.....worthy of reading again.....one of his best speeches ever....could be the very best in fact!
I do get 4K on Netflix, but I had to subscribe to 4K to get it, and stream it through a Roku Ultra box to the TV via the HDMI switch. My TV is a 2014 Samsung, so I think the newer TVs have these port inconsistencies figured out by now.
One thing I never got to use was the 3D glasses that came with the TV.

So it turns out that YouTube just pulled the entire RSBN recording claiming a copyright infringement. It is no longer there.
No one “broadcasts” in 4K, but as you mentioned there’s plenty of 4K movie content. And it’ll definitely be compressed via streaming — it’s okay. Blu-Ray disks the best way to go if you have a RedBox nearby.
There’s a lot of movies moving to 4K UHD disc. The PS5 will support it natively, in the model with the disc player. That’s by far the best way to watch movies, far better than the streaming junk.
Funny you mention PS5 — the game consoles have always been ahead of the regular consumer market. Agreed regarding streaming.
Do you have a soundbar?
I have a Yamaha receiver in a 7.1 surround setup. I’m hoping sometime to make that 9.1 with a newer Atmos/DTS-X receiver.
