Will The 6 Fascist Justices Celebrate the 4th Today

The 4th of July is the day America freed itself from being ruled by a king. The 4th of July was the day we signed the Declaration of Independence from monarchial rule. Our ancestors fought and died to be freed from being ruled by a king, fought and died so that the unwashed American had a say in our government.

The 6 fascist justices should be ashamed to celebrate the 4th of July, TSF who appointed 3 of those justices should be ashamed to celebrate the 4th of July.

From now on, for me, celebrating the 4th will be hollow, will be a day to remember how we once had it.

Our daughter group texted yesterday 🙄 to ask if we wanted to join them at the parade, for burgers, and then go to the fireworks.

Hubby “No, we aren’t celebrating the Fourth this year.”

Son “why not”

Daughter “what”

Hubbie “Trump v US. Guess you didn’t notice no flags flying this year.”

Crickets.

America was founded to favor white male landowners. Not the unwashed, the non-white, slaves, women, indigenous natives.

That's why I never celebrated the 4th.
Recent events just confirm my understanding of the basic American inequities .

There were slaves, blacks and women didn't have the right to vote, and on and on but....the process was there to make changes to give unwashed Americans their rights. Now that process has been destroyed. All of the changes that were made to help unwashed Americans will be now tossed in the trash bin of history. We will not have a process any more to make changes for the better with a Magat as president and with the present Magat Supreme Court.
