Yes, the Declaration of Independence was a big deal 250 years ago. But if it wasn’t for this speech by President Whitmore 40 years ago, we wouldn’t be here to celebrate it.

George Washington was not the first president of our country, that was John Hancock. He was elected 251 years ago today. He would later become instrumental in ratifying the constitution. Without Hancock, there would be no declaration of independence, there would be no constitution, there would be no United States. Now, why do you think public schools don’t teach that?

Russell Vought has repeatedly asserted that Donald Trump has the constitutional authority to ignore spending laws enacted by Congress. So I confronted him with a simple question: Is it seriously your position that the Founding Fathers intended to grant to a president like Donald Trump impoundment powers that the British monarch himself did not possess when the American people overthrow him 250 years ago?

🇺🇸250 years ago, our Founding Fathers committed what the British Crown considered the ultimate act of treason. They pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor—not for power, but for an idea. An idea that governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed. An idea that our rights are endowed by our Creator, not granted by kings or politicians. An idea that liberty is never inherited automatically—it must be understood, defended, and, if necessary, reclaimed by every generation. As America celebrates 250 years, maybe the greatest tribute isn’t just fireworks or parades. Maybe it’s remembering why this nation was born in the first place. This is my Independence Day message. 🇺🇸 Thank you President Trump for helping America remember. The White House President Donald J. Trump

.Vice President JD Vance in New York Harbor: "By July of 1776, 80% of New York’s population had emptied out in anticipation of the coming violence, and that brings us back to our great General Washington. He knew the battles to come would be bruising and would demand much of his men, but they needed to know, through hot Summers and cold Winters, exactly what they were being asked to fight for—and so just a few days after the Declaration of Independence was signed, George Washington read aloud the words of the incredible Declaration: 'We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.' Even today, 250 years to the day later, these words command a tremendous power over us as Americans. For 250 years, they have stirred our hearts and they’ve reminded us of who we are as a people."

🚨 JUST IN: Disgraced EX-Vice President Mike Pence says "Not a day goes by" that someone doesn't thank him for what he did in the 2020 election. "Not a day has gone by in the last four and a half years that I haven't had people in public life and everyday Americans from every background express appreciation for the role that we played four and a half years ago." "I'll always believe, by god's grace, we did our duty on that fateful day."

Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution says that “The Congress shall have power to declare war.” The decision whether to unleash the dogs of war should not be made by this president alone, or by any other president acting without the consent of Congress and the American people. Against a malign power like Iran, or any other country.

ACLU National Executive Director Anthony Romero: If you are born in the USA, you are an American citizen. I was especially gratified that Trump was sitting a mere 6 feet away from me, and I hope he was schooled in the importance of birthright citizenship. I am confident that we will win this case and that the future of this country will be determined by our Constitution and not by the whim of a president who wishes to wipe away hundreds of years of precedent.

On the eve of America's 250th birthday, I was honored to visit the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library and have a conversation with his great-great-grandson Ted Roosevelt V on what this day means. 250 years ago, a group of imperfect people did something extraordinary. They declared that liberty belonged to the people, not a king, and that America's future would always be determined by its citizens. The American story is still being written. Every generation has had to defend, strengthen, and extend the American promise. The story of America isn't that we've always lived up to our ideals. It's that we've never stopped striving to. That's what makes this country exceptional. As we celebrate 250 years of independence, let's remember that patriotism isn't about pretending America is perfect. It's about believing America is worth fighting for, worth improving, and worth passing on stronger than we found it. Our most successful presidents understood that and kept their eyes focused on the prize: America.
