Do we need another "Independence Day"?

July Fourth seemed more like a celebration of Donald Trump than a celebration of America.

I feel like we need another "Independence Day".

Perhaps we should have a day of celebration when Trump and his cabal are removed from power?

It's sad the way he tried to take over America's day of celebration.

America needs a big 253rd birthday celebration, where red hats are burned and the child rapist president's name is removed from eeverything but his tombstone.

253! MAKE AMERICA FREE!

Oh wait




Investment accounts owned by President Trump engaged in more than 300 previously undisclosed stock purchases on April 8, 2025, one day before his surprise announcement that he would pause a number of his “Liberation Day” tariffs, his financial disclosure report says.
