Also the morning the heroes of Entebbe arrived back home in Israel.

On July 4, 1826, America awaited a special moment. It was the young nation’s Jubilee. It was the 50th anniversary of its birth, of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, a grand triumph in the annals of not merely the new nation but in the much older and longer march of humanity.

“The United States celebrated its fiftieth birthday with parades and speeches across the country,” details historian Andrew Burstein in his book, America’s Jubilee. “It was a watershed moment in the nation’s history…. But what ultimately sanctified the national jubilee in the minds of the celebrants was an extraordinary coincidence: the nearly simultaneous deaths of Thomas Jefferson and John Adams, the last pillars of the original republic, already venerated as legends in their own time.”

Americans solemnly awaited impending news of whether the two principal architects of the Declaration, Jefferson and his chief editor, Adams, would survive for the celebration. Jefferson was 83 and Adams was 90. How profound it was that both indispensable founders lived just long enough. Both died that exact date, July 4, 1826, as if by divine doing.

240 years ago, we fought against tyranny.



Now a nation of Pajama Bois fights to impose their tyranny upon us...

240 years ago men signed a death warrant pledging their lives, fortunes and sacred honor; I know not what course others may take, but as for me give me liberty or death...


Now we're fighting over bathroom access as a national crises.

If the then King and his party hadn't been so such stupid cunts the American colonists would not have had to rebel.

They would have got self-government and eventual independence without having to fight for it.

But congratulations anyway.
