Americans don't want endless racial grievances to dictate public policy.

We don't want open borders to destroy our national identity any more than we want deranged activists to smear America's founders and tear down their statues.

So by electing Donald Trump over Kamala Harris, more than 77 million voters rejected a political ideology that's premised on cynicism and

resentment and envy and disdain for America and its people, particularly white males.

Instead, we voted for the candidate who promised explicitly that he would celebrate America's greatness and in particular its history.

So this video is from the summer of 2023 as the Biden administration ramped up its campaign of political prosecutions against Trump and his allies.

At the time, to many Americans, the idea that Trump could actually win reelection seemed hard to comprehend.

But with that in mind, here was Trump's message at the time.

Watch.

Now, Memorial Day 2025 has come and gone.

And as you've probably noticed, the nationwide parades have not begun.

Far from it.

Instead, the administration's plan to honor the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence and the birth of this country, by any measure, has fallen apart in spectacular fashion and has certainly fallen well short of that ambitious plan.

vision that he laid out that sounded really exciting.

That would have been great if that could have happened, but none of it did.

And I will freely admit that this is a failure that truly bothers me for a number of reasons.

And the more that I think about it and the closer we get to July 4th, the more frustrated I become and the more depressing the whole situation is.

And you probably feel the same way.

If you don't, you should, because no matter what your political beliefs happen to be, this is a story that has many ramifications, some obvious, some not so obvious, for the future of this country.

As I'll explain in a minute, there has never been a failure of this type that is this embarrassing in the history of the United States.
