Celebrating the Fourth of July in the face of multiple attack on our way of life.
AS WE CELEBRATE the Fourth of July this year, the day of our independence, we are faced with sick individuals who hate America, and feel the need for us to apologize for being an American.

Leftists have taken over a number of our cities, rioting and looting our businesses. Our institutions and monuments are marred with graffiti, and statues are being defaced and torn down. And now we’re being told that our military bases bearing the names of generals of the confederacy must be changed. Democrats have put a poison pill covering that in the Defense bill.
As President Trump plans to visit one of our historic landmarks, Mount Rushmore, he is being criticized, referring to his appearance there as a celebration of white supremacy. Falsely accusing him of blocking pandemic relief for Native Americans. How ludicrous. When is this going to stop?
We have allowed the actions of four rogue cops in Minneapolis to metastasize into a charge that all of America is guilty of systemic racism. Leftists were permitted to go beyond freedom to assemble and speech in Democrat-controlled cities, including our nation’s capital, primarily under the umbrella of the Black Lives Matter banner.

AND IT CONTINUES – As I write this, the owner of the Washington Redskins is again being pressured to change the name of his NFL team. Sponsors, like Nike, FedEx, and PepsiCo, and nearly 100 investors and other sponsors, representing $620 billion, figuratively have their knee on the neck of owner Dan Snyder to change the name. He is putting a group together to review the issue still again. Don’t think the politically correct NFL isn’t involved.
Also, in the news is the plan to play the anthem of Black Lives Matter at NFL games.
The Ohio State University can no longer claim Columbus as it’s home. The statue of Columbus has been removed from the city hall grounds. What would Woody Hayes think about that?
BUT DEMOCRATS ARE MULTI-TACTICIANS when it comes to building their case against the president’s reelection. While charging racism on one front, they continue to blame the president for mishandling the virus outbreak and the resulting hit on our economy. And they continue to say the president is colluding with Russia by ignoring the charge of bounties being placed on our warriors in Afghanistan.
Joe Biden attacked the president on unemployment resulting from the virus shutdown as if that could be avoided.
Hillary Clinton, like a Monday morning quarterback, had the audacity to say, “we sure could have done a better job saving lives, modeling better, more responsible behavior. I don’t think we necessarily should have had as deep an economic assault on our livelihoods and jobs as we have. I know I would have done a better job.” Like the way she responded to Benghazi?
On the Russian front, “Chicken Little’s Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer are charging the president with ignoring the New York Times “evidence” that the Russians are paying bounties to the Taliban for killing Americans, while our intelligence experts did not elevate the intelligence to the daily briefing level.
That doesn’t matter to Democrats. It’s another means of attacking the president and questioning his reelection.
So, as you celebrate the Fourth of July, soak in the freedoms you enjoy, and vow to fight against those who would destroy our American way of life – Democrats and the Black Lives Matter movement.
May God continue to bless the United States of America.
