HIGHLAND PARK, Ill. (AP) — The man charged with killing seven people at an Independence Day parade confessed to police that he unleashed a hail of bullets from a rooftop in suburban Chicago and then fled to the Madison, Wisconsin, area, where he contemplated shooting up an event there, authorities said Wednesday. The suspect turned…

Though conservatives, in general, have never been big fans of the National Public Radio network otherwise known as NPR, one thing they have appreciated about them over the years is their annual reading of the Declaration of Independence on or around the 4th of July on-air, which they’ve done for over three decades. Sometimes they…
Earlier, we told you about pro-abort actress Jessica Chastain’s — and her reproductive rights’ — “Happy ‘Independence’ Day” message. The gist of it is that the notion of “Independence Day” is ironic because, thanks to the Republican Party and conservative Supreme Court Justices, we no longer have any independence. Turns out it’s a pretty popular…
We’ve had some bad takes this Independence Day. As we mentioned, some intern for the City of Orlando who forgot their antidepressants wrote that “a lot of people probably don’t want to celebrate our nation right now,” but they’d already bought the fireworks (shades of Hillary Clinton’s preparation for her victory speech). We’ll wager that…
Today, we are celebrating the 246th year of America’s Independence. On this Fourth of July, as we celebrate America’s independence, we should remember that the American Dream is alive and well, freedom rings, and the United States of America is the greatest nation in the world. Recently, a Fox News poll showed that only 39…
This Fourth of July sure has a lot of people triggered. Kristine Parks reports for Fox News that NPR broke its longstanding tradition of reading the Declaration of Independence and instead had a discussion of the meaning of equality. “Morning Edition” host Leila Fadel made the announcement and said it would be an “important segment…
Actress Jessica Chastain would like to wish you and yours a very happy “Independence” Day, from her and her reproductive rights: Happy “Independence” Day from me and my reproductive rights. pic.twitter.com/GoIuu4JhAq — Jessica Chastain (@jes_chastain) July 4, 2022 She sure is beautiful. And that’s very fortunate for her. Not every shamelessly and staggeringly ignorant person…
This… is CNN… the Most Trusted Name in News™. Yeah, no. This is actually an objective analysis by your not-so-humble conservative political pundit of a CNN “analysis” of the bitter divisiveness gripping America on this, our 246th Independence Day, and those the dumpster fire “news” outlet blames for the strife. Unsurprisingly, CNN unwittingly makes a…
I wasn’t always politically conservative. I was raised in a household of classically liberal Democrats and I espoused those same classical liberal views until roughly my early thirties. (Truth be told, I still do, as I have some libertarian leanings, and much of what I consider traditional liberalism has given way to progressive leftism.) But…
It’s as if Max Boot made a list of the WORST takes he could make on Twitter and is gradually working his way through them all. We realize hate-clicks pay the same but man, he is really doing some damage to his reputation here. Honestly, there was a time this editor thought Max was a…
“When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the…
We all know the drill. From liberal news outlets to public schools to politicians, municipalities, and beyond. A left-wing individual or entity says or does something that infuriates more people than said left-winger(s) believed would be the case, and subsequently releases a ridiculous apology, generally in direct conflict with the “transgression.” The below example is…
Tomorrow is Independence Day in the U.S., and leading up to the holiday many on the Left have been tripping all over each other to show everybody how much they hate the 4th of July. A couple of recent examples include the Pima County Dems in Arizona and their “F**k the 4th” flyer, and the…
The activist group Women’s March promised a “summer of rage” over the Supreme Court’s overturning of Roe v. Wade, and for now that rage is being directed at the 4th of July: If we don’t have bodily autonomy and independence, then #FuckTheFourth. pic.twitter.com/q74WP2Ica4 — Women’s March (@womensmarch) July 1, 2022 There’s only one word for…
On the occasion of his 100th birthday, United States Marine Corps and World War 2 veteran Carl Dekel reflected on his long life and the blessings he’s enjoyed in an interview with Tampa’s Fox 13. The Silver Star recipient recalled the Battle of Guadalcanal and his gratitude that the Lord brought him home and says…
I’ll be honest—I didn’t want to report on this story. I wanted to post an upbeat, patriotic 4th of July article touting the greatness of America and the boundless possibilities of our great nation. I also wanted to write about the fabulous economy, the roaring stock market, the peace and love in our times, but…
In a politically divided state like Arizona, there should be at least a few things that unite people as Americans regardless of their views, with Independence Day being one of those things. Unfortunately, the Pima County Democratic Party did not get the memo. The local party is under scrutiny for posting their support of a…
Remember last year’s notorious and widely mocked White House brag about how much money President Biden was saving Americans on their July 4th cookouts? It’s still a classic: Planning a cookout this year? Ketchup on the news. According to the Farm Bureau, the cost of a 4th of July BBQ is down from last year….
