Happy 250th birthday, America 🇺🇸 ! We continue the struggle for a ‘more perfect union.’ And I continue to agree with James Baldwin: “I love America more than any other country in the world, and, exactly for this reason, I insist on the right to criticize her perpetually.”

My ancestors were slaves 250 years ago. I’m not celebrating shit

American Exceptionalism XXXV: The Jeep The World Before: Armies once moved at the pace of horses, trucks, mud, and luck. War punished anything too delicate, too heavy, or too dependent on perfect roads. The American Answer: The Jeep was ugly, simple, stubborn, and almost impossible to kill. It carried officers, radios, machine guns, medics, ammunition, scouts, and exhausted men across every kind of terrain the war could invent. It was not built for elegance. It was built to keep moving. The Legacy: The Jeep became the mechanical animal of American war. From North Africa to Normandy to the Pacific, it gave mobility to a citizen army fighting across the planet. Small enough to go anywhere, strong enough to matter everywhere. The Threat: The enemies of this country hate practical strength because it cannot be faked. The Jeep was not theory, branding, or bureaucracy. It was American industry stripped to purpose. Four wheels. One mission. Move.

American Exceptionalism XLV: The James Webb Space Telescope The World Before: For most of history, mankind looked upward through atmosphere, myth, and limitation. The universe was visible, but veiled. We could see light, but not always its origin. We could measure the heavens, but not yet stare deep enough to watch creation aging backward. The American Answer: The James Webb Space Telescope changed the depth of human sight. American-led, built with allies, launched into the dark, and placed nearly a million miles from Earth, it unfolded like a cathedral of gold and began pulling ancient light out of the edge of time. This was not exploration by bootprint. It was conquest by vision. The Legacy: Webb gave mankind a deeper universe. Galaxies, stars, dust, atmospheres, birth, death, distance, and time itself became clearer because a civilization still had the nerve to build an eye powerful enough to look past the limits of its own age. America did not merely reach for the stars. It built the instrument that made them confess. The Threat: The enemies of this country hate ambition that escapes politics. They prefer a smaller people, trapped in grievance, managed by scarcity, and taught to sneer at wonder as waste. Webb is the answer in gold and cold silence. A nation that can look thirteen billion years into the dark should never be governed by minds afraid of tomorrow.

I’m not sure how many times we have to say the SAVE Act is a voter suppression bill, but here’s the president saying it himself.

An illegal alien from Haiti, who was given a Commercial Driver’s License by Massachusetts, has been charged in the killing of a Pennsylvania State Trooper. While driving his truck, Michael Bon veered off the road and hit Trooper Michael E. Pahira Jr. Bon entered the U.S. under Biden in 2024 under the administration’s “humanitarian parole program” and was ordered to leave the last year after his legal status was terminated.
