Just weeks before our nation’s 250th birthday, NBC News released a new <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/poll-america-250-riven-doubt-pessimism-glimmers-hope-rcna348912">poll</a> showing a “record-low number” of Americans are “extremely proud” to be Americans. Two groups, in particular, are driving the decline: liberals and young Americans. Just 29% of Democrats and 36% of 18- to 34-year-olds <a href="https://x.com/SteveKornacki/status/2066173092393533458">say they are “very” or “extremely proud”</a> of being American, compared to 90% of Republicans and 75% of seniors.
Individually, these partisan and generational divides seem like bad news. But taken together, they strike me as a source of optimism and even inspiration for American patriots.
Because there is another crucial difference between older and younger Americans besides their age and their politics: their knowledge of American history and civics. 
For <a href="https://news.gallup.com/poll/2890/younger-americans-get-much-lower-grades-than-their-elders-history-quiz.aspx?utm_source=chatgpt.com">decades</a>, surveys have found that older Americans know more about our founding, our Constitution, and our history than younger Americans do. A recent <a href="https://www.aei.org/research-products/report/america-at-250-surveying-change-and-continuity-on-civic-values/">study</a> by the American Enterprise Institute asked Americans about key elements of U.S. history such as the Bill of Rights, the Civil War, and the Cold War, and found, “Members of Gen Z were less knowledgeable on each historical landmark than were baby boomers.”
This is consistent with the abysmal data from the National Assessment of Educational Progress (“the nation’s report card”). Students’ test scores in U.S. history have been <a href="https://www.nationsreportcard.gov/highlights/ushistory/2022/">falling</a> for over a decade now. Fewer than 15% of U.S. eighth graders are proficient in the subject, and only one-fifth are proficient in <a href="https://www.nationsreportcard.gov/highlights/civics/2022/">civics</a>.
Nor is this epidemic of historical ignorance limited to middle-schoolers. Studies show similar knowledge gaps among <a href="https://www.goacta.org/2024/07/acta-releases-alarming-new-survey-showing-dangerous-level-of-civic-illiteracy-among-college-students/">college students</a> and <a href="https://www.uschamberfoundation.org/civics/new-study-finds-alarming-lack-of-civic-literacy-among-americans">adults</a>. Only one-third of Americans, for instance, know enough about our country to <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/most-us-would-fail-u-s-citizenship-test-survey-finds-n918961">pass</a> the citizenship test we require for new immigrants.
In this context, America’s patriotism gap makes more sense. The people who love our country most tend to be the ones who know her best. American history is the second greatest story ever told. The problem is that we stopped telling that story to our children.
On the contrary, we have twisted the story. The elites who run America’s schools, news media, and the entertainment industry have spent a generation lying to our kids about our country. In classrooms across the country today, American history is treated like a horror story. Students don’t learn about our successes — only our sins.
Of course, kids inundated with anti-American propaganda are going to grow up to be less patriotic. On the other hand, if the root cause of America’s patriotism gap is ignorance about our history, the problem can be easily solved. All we have to do is tell the truth about America. That’s exactly what &#8220;Star Spangled Adventures: The Movie!&#8221; does.
&#8220;Star Spangled Adventures&#8221; is a series of animated shorts that tells the true story of the United States. Each episode introduces children to a hero or moment from America’s history, from Christopher Columbus and the Pilgrims through the Revolution, the Civil War, and all the way to the Wright brothers and Jackie Robinson. Launched three years ago by the American Cornerstone Institute, the series now has over 30 episodes and has reached hundreds of thousands of children and their families.
Through our <a href="https://littlepatriotslearning.com">Little Patriots</a> initiative, we worked with historians and educators to create original classroom resources to go along with each episode. We’re fighting back against historical ignorance one story at a time.
This year, in celebration of America’s 250th, we decided to turn &#8220;Star Spangled Adventures&#8221; into a feature-length film. The movie features the voices of stars such as Kirk Cameron, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/weekend-plans-with-gary-sinise-the-most-patriotic-actor-in-america">Gary Sinise</a>, Kevin Sorbo, and even a cartoon version of me! You will soon be able to stream the movie for yourself and your family <a href="https://starspangledadventures.com/">online</a>.
No nation is perfect, but ours is extraordinary. At no point in the last 250 years was there a country that presented more opportunities than America did. Sure, we had our faults. But every other country’s faults were at least as bad, and usually worse.
Today, Americans of every race, creed, and color are freer, more prosperous, and more secure in their God-given rights than any people in history. &#8220;Star Spangled Adventures&#8221; reminds us all that the best reason Americans should love their country is that their country is so lovable.
And the best way to revive American patriotism is to start telling our children the truth about the land of the free and the home of the brave.

Upstream

Happy 100th birthday, Route 66! Yes, that scenic byway that runs from Chicago to Santa Monica, California – 2,448 miles of pure America — hit the centennial mark and looks pretty darned good considering it was marked for execution half its lifetime ago.
Instead of a death sentence, this vein that cuts through the heart of America persists, just as America has for 250 years: reinventing itself and rebelling against generations of nostalgia-bathed geriatrics to define its own purpose and future, brick by brick — or paved mile after paved mile.
Sure, there’s plenty of old-timey glory to be had, but this super roadway toward a sunset strip offers so much more: a glimpse into the past with the wheels always treading toward the future. And if you follow it west, it goes right into the horizon of a sun that never sets until you want it. And even then, perhaps it’s somewhere in the cool desert under a canopy of endless stars winking you a goodnight through the neon glow of a roadside motel or trippy little teepee. The Mother Road offers what Americans have always been looking for: adventure, discovery, possibility, and a path of unwritten rules (speed limit be damned). Go west, young man, and grow up with the country.
But this isn’t about Route 66. It’s about the type of country and the type of Americans it represents.
We are empire builders in every sense of the world, and if you’re ashamed of that, then you need to reassess your priorities, man. Because doggone, how could you not always be in love with the team that suffers the foolishness of the world and ends up shaking the whole thing down until it’s safe for the beaten and scared – or threats are at least behind us – and then carries on as if it was NBD? And all the while we’re blasting rockets into space, curing diseases, feeding the world&#8217;s hungry, writing great literature, creating great art, and writing the Great American Songbook. We build skyscrapers, railroads, fleets of aircraft, and TV dinners. We invented Hollywood, football, pantyhose, and pinup girls. We make muscle cars. We play golf on the moon.
What good is an empire if you don’t use it? Yet here we are – the U.S. of A. with our hotdog cookouts where men wear low-cut sneakers and grab beers from sweating coolers under the Maple tree, and wives in gingham and soft brown hair corral barefoot children, sticky from ice pops and marshmallows and lemonade made with too much sugar. Here is the Empire of the true believers: the road doesn’t start or end here. Each man knows from where he came and wishes to go. These are parents whose own childhoods were unburdened by the weight of the future and the fears of old men. Couples who fell in love with each other and the American Dream. When it comes to realizing that love — of God, family, and country — it cannot be held back. It’s akin to closing the back cover of a book that blew your mind, and the only thought that bubbles to the surface is, “This must be shared.” And so it is with building the American Empire.
Who has lost faith in the American Dream? When “proud” is a proxy for love, it’s easy to see who is invested in the long-haul, full-speed-ahead, ride-or-die America of the past, present, and future. If one man is making that drive by way of the Main Street of America or any other highway or byway, backroad or country road, in a Corvette alongside Tod Stiles or riding shotgun with Hunter S. Thompson, the Empire is unmistakable. It is belief in the project of America rather than the political projects subject to the whim of office-holding power. To Democrats, there is nothing to be proud of — nothing to love — when the levers of power aren’t being pulled by “your team.”
<div class="image"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1126395" src="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2026/07/image-5.jpg" alt="" width="579" height="466" srcset="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2026/07/image-5.jpg 579w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2026/07/image-5-300x241.jpg 300w" sizes=" (max-width: 579px) 100vw, 579px" /></div>
So it goes, why invest in the American Dream, become part of the Great American Project, the American Empire, if your entire viewpoint and love is dependent on political power? You don’t. You don’t see the point beyond one being wholly consumed by a constant feed of hateful slop, shoveled into every eye, ear, and mouth hole until the consumer is conditioned to crave it. For the leftist, the defiance and the satisfaction both depend on the project of destroying the American Empire rather than on recognizing its awesomeness.
We live in the most culturally and environmentally diverse nation, yet are largely unified under the principle of being, well, American. To paraphrase John Candy (R.I.P.) We like us — and we like being American. This is a land still waiting to be discovered and shared, and welcomed to, where you can stake your own little corner of it somewhere – practically anywhere. We are kind and without prejudice to strangers until the moment you badmouth the very things that make this the best place on Earth — our trust in goodness, and our ability to do good, if imperfectly. We unapologetic Americans don&#8217;t care about how others denigrate us to feel morally superior; that&#8217;s our superpower. The down-on-America types contribute nothing to this scenic adventure, but they do expose a shallow and unprincipled life by so easily and flippantly turning on a nation and its people who gave the world so much in exchange for the self-important applause of fellow pompous status-seekers.
It shouldn’t be surprising, then, that those who still love America despite the politics of the thing are <a href="https://ifstudies.org/report-brief/the-ideological-fertility-divide">having more kids</a>, according to the Institute for Family Studies. There might be something about being absorbed in shoveling slop to such an extent that the idea of being without it drives a person to be an anxiety-riddled mess, the weight of the synthetic fears smothering any optimism for the future.
People mercilessly attack the very idea of America as a chimera or a worn-out fable for silly-headed children and misty-eyed, faded patriots. But America and the American Dream endure — if not as the Promised Land, then as the Land of Promise. And whose to say what that promise is, exactly?
Maybe we don’t want someone to tell us the answer (what’s up, Alexa?) but to go forth and discover it on our own — and even if we don’t find it, we take pleasure and pride in seeking it ourselves. Because the truth is somewhere down that road, but first you have to get in the car and drive. And what a drive it is. That’s the dividing line. Those who see the miles of mountains, desert, grassland and plains, swamps and valley, forest and seashore, and stand in awe at what God has so graciously given us, and we want so desperately to share that sense of wonder. There is nothing that can satisfy that urgency like having children and wanting them to see and discover and experience what we have been so generously given for 250 years. Even through war and famine and desolation, Americans have conquered — not nation building for its own sake, but conquered to spread the American ethos: the unbound spirit of searching for an American Dream that never dies in the hearts of those who believe in it.

On this day, 250 years ago, Thomas <a href="https://x.com/OldeWorldOrder/status/2071021131373429235">Paine</a> publicly argued for adopting &#8220;United States of America&#8221; as the formal name of the new nation, just days before the Declaration of Independence was adopted. The name stuck because it described exactly what we were building: a nation of united, sovereign states, not a collection of squabbling colonies.
And on this day, June 29, 2026, Democrats are flipping their flags upside down, banning the Bible from schools, and refusing to celebrate our 250th anniversary. They&#8217;re not just apathetic about this country; they&#8217;re actively allergic to it.
Gosh, they ruin everything good.
Though Republican pride in the country remains strong — 70% of Republican voters say they&#8217;re &#8220;extremely proud&#8221; to be an American — Democrats are at an embarrassing 14%. If you&#8217;re not proud of the nation that invented modern liberty, defeated fascism and communism, put a man on the moon, and gave the world the technologies that define the 21st century, then what exactly are you proud of?
I, for one, identify as an American thoroughbred. I bleed red, white, and blue. I think Uncle Sam is my actual uncle. I get giddy reading about the Founding Fathers and the impossible odds they overcame to secure the freedoms we now treat like background noise. Sure, I&#8217;m proud of my Italian heritage and my olive skin, and Sicily is a fantastic vacation spot, but all of that will always come second to my Americanism. 
 
And for those of you who don&#8217;t feel this way and have allegiances to other countries, may I ask why the hell you&#8217;re still here?
We have a mountain with four presidents&#8217; faces carved into it — Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, and Theodore Roosevelt — because they&#8217;re the men who brought us independence, individual liberty, global strength, and the abolition of slavery. We sent reusable rockets into space while other nations were still figuring out how to keep the lights on. We put a man on the moon before most people had calculators. We invented the airplane, the internet, and the smartphone, and turned the very landscape of every Taylor Sheridan series into the most powerful, prosperous, and free society in human history. Also, we have lots of air conditioning.
This is not a normal country. It&#8217;s an extraordinary one. Where people don’t just “make it,” they change the world.
And despite this, despite ubiquitous Ozempic, despite Amazon Prime and ranch dressing, the Left still isn’t having fun. But they aren’t just unhappy. They&#8217;ve built an entire identity out of grievance, and a country worth celebrating is a direct threat to that identity. If America is good, their whole worldview collapses. So it can&#8217;t be good. It has to be irredeemably racist, colonialist, and oppressive. Because the alternative is admitting they&#8217;ve spent decades being wrong about everything.
That&#8217;s why they ban the Bible from schools, sneer at the flag, and sit out the 250th anniversary of the greatest political experiment in human history. It&#8217;s not intellectual. It&#8217;s a mental illness. Misery needs company, and America&#8217;s success is the loneliest thing in the world for someone who needs it to fail.
Take the Bible. Liberals are furious that the Texas State Board of Education voted to make Bible passages required in public schools. I’m furious that it wasn’t already.
The Bible is in our national DNA. It helped write the code. George Washington prayed that citizens would imitate &#8220;the Divine Author of our blessed Religion.&#8221; John Adams said plainly that the Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people, and called the Bible the best book in the world. Thomas Jefferson created his own edited version of the Gospels. And our first Chief Justice, John Jay, said it was the duty of a Christian nation to prefer Christian leaders. These views weren’t fringe; they were the whole operation. Attacking the Bible isn’t brave countercultural resistance; it’s sawing off the branch you’re sitting on.
But here&#8217;s the thing about 250 years: we&#8217;ve survived worse than these woke woeful warriors. We&#8217;ve survived actual existential threats, and we came out stronger every time. The question is whether this generation will do its part.
It&#8217;s not too late for normal Democrats and independents who still love this country. Stop following activists who treat America like an original sin. Ask yourself what kind of nation you want your children to inherit. Be proud of the past, protective of the present, and hopeful for the future. Fly the flag right-side up. Teach your kids and your friends the real story of this country. Fire up the grill this Fourth and celebrate the 250th anniversary like it means something — because it means everything.
This nation is worth defending. It&#8217;s worth keeping alive for another 250 years. And it&#8217;s worth being proud of.

I Bleed Red, White, And Blue – The Left Can’t Stand It

Founding Fathers

Leftists

The major intellectual project of the far Left in the United States has long been its attempt to get Americans to hate their country. Its proponents may allow for hope of future love of country, once the left has been swept into power and undertaken the necessary reforms or even a revolution. But as for the country’s past and its condition today, it is chiefly worthy of visceral detestation and condemnation.
As for the view of their country among Americans writ large, we will likely get a better impression of the prevailing mood in the weeks ahead. Prediction: Americans will mark their country’s 250th birthday with celebratory gusto, not disgust.
Those in the public square who don’t share the condemnatory view, including President Trump, often speak of Trump Derangement Syndrome. Frequently, however, TDS is a symptom of a more encompassing malady. Call it “America Derangement Syndrome” — the view that this country stinks in all major and many minor ways. The mobilization against Trump is personal, but he is often a proxy for a bigger target: the idea of a great America.
This view mainly spreads from its sturdy long-time redoubt on the end of the political spectrum, where Americans identify themselves not as “liberal” but as “very liberal.” The intensifier has made a big difference in attitudes toward American exceptionalism (no such thing), views of the U.S. military (highly suspect), DEI and transgender policy preferences (enthusiastic support), and, in pandemic times, personal fear of COVID (very high).
Over decades, Gallup surveys found Americans embraced this “very liberal” self-description in low numbers, typically no more than 10% of respondents, compared to 25% or so identifying as “liberal.” Yet the “very liberal” do command cultural heights from Hollywood and academia to publishing to major media outlets. They are a tiny minority of Americans, but they don’t act like it and never have. Meanwhile, surveys have shown that in recent years, more Democrats have been tipping toward “very liberal.” In terms of political domination of the party, the “very liberal” seem to have routed or cowed into submission moderate or old-school “liberal” Democrats.
The representative cultural document of “very liberal” America is the “1619 Project,” which sought to redate the founding of the United States to the year the first African slaves arrived in the British colonies of North America. To slavery, add “settler genocide” as practiced against Native Americans, the all-encompassing subjugation of women by men, stultifying religious conformism, the turn of the United States to imperial conquest in the late 19th century, Japanese internment during World War II, the South of Jim Crow, ongoing structural racism and sexism, income inequality, and the overweening political influence of billionaires. The cumulative impression is that of an American moral cesspool. A Gallup survey last year found 9% of respondents said they had no pride in the United States;  an additional 11% said they had only a little.
Lately, however, this broad-based rejection of the United States as a political project has also taken inchoate root on the “postliberal” right. Here, the primary objection is the primacy accorded to individual rights and freedom in liberal societies, especially the United States. Liberty, in this view, inevitably becomes license and runs roughshod over any notion of the common good, which societies must embrace to survive. Postliberals divide over whether the United States, at its origin, was in fact a liberal society. One view holds that because it was, the venture was doomed to failure from the outset once liberalism had run its course.  Another view is that the United States was born a Christian nationalist polity but became corrupted over time by liberal individualism.
As for where to go from here, the recovery of the sense of collective good requires some form of authoritarian transformation. Most postliberals are vague on the details, though some are explicit in their yearning for a strongman. Both the postliberals and the left aspire to cultural hegemony and the suppression of ideas about the “common good” that deviate from their own. This requires enforcement power that they won’t find in the Constitution of the United States.
While “very liberal” self-describers are a small but growing minority, the postliberal sort is a growing minority but still an infinitesimal one. J.D. Vance has called himself postliberal, but he is less well known for that than for his conspicuous patriotism as vice president of the United States.
The “very liberal” and the postliberal are one in spirit in that their advocacy takes place not outside the confines of the society they claim to despise, or even on its margins, but in its bosom. Many on the Left have long been adept at cashing in on their views in societies such as the United States, which readily enable individuals to do so. The ability of right-wingers to do so seems to be improving as social media is monetized. In this, paradoxically or not, both camps have a lot in common with the hundreds of millions of other individuals bustling in pursuit of happiness in the United States.
So even as those who peddle disgust with America continue to make the most of living here, 41% in that Gallup survey said they are extremely proud of their country, 17% very proud, and 19% moderately proud. It’s true that the extremely/very numbers were down from 2024, but there is clearly a partisan effect from Donald Trump’s reelection to account for. So the inroads of America Derangement Syndrome are real but small.
This shouldn’t really come as a surprise, and it points to a fundamental misconception among evangelists of America-hate. Guess what? All sentient Americans are aware of their country’s history of slavery, and polls show most agree its negative effects remain with us. Yet 77% are at least moderately proud of their country anyway. Love of one’s country or pride in it doesn’t require a view that its past was sinless. So “educating” people about its sinfulness, by way of the 1619 Project, will not produce the hoped-for levels of radicalization a new revolution requires. The “very liberal” may or may not believe they are speaking to the masses, but their message resonates mainly with their preexisting ideological soulmates. It can, however, produce an unwarranted degree of self-doubt among  Americans about their country and a reluctance to speak up for it for fear of monomaniacal “very liberal” denunciation. This is a problem, and it demands greater outspokenness on behalf of the 77% who recognize, wholly or in part, that they live in a great country.
In fact, most of the time, most citizens of most countries feel a sense of attachment to them. This is visceral. Here, it’s what causes otherwise even-keeled individuals at international sporting events to chant “U-S-A! U-S-A!” and to be moved to tears by especially powerful renditions of the “Star-Spangled Banner.” These reactions do not require an unblemished historical record of goodness and achievement, nor are they easily undone by affluent scolds with an agenda. The notion that you could talk Americans out of pride in their country is part and parcel of the derangement.
Once, when asked in Europe about American exceptionalism, President Barack Obama replied, “I believe in American exceptionalism, just as I suspect that the Brits believe in British exceptionalism and the Greeks believe in Greek exceptionalism.” He chose to answer by pretending not to know of the specific use of the term “exceptionalism” as applied to the American experience. That left many Americans dissatisfied or worse, because if everyone rightly feels exceptional, it’s the rule, not the exception.
Nevertheless, to the extent Obama was simply describing the pride people generally take in their country, he was on to something. He selected safe countries to set alongside America. The German and Japanese examples, had he picked them, would have created a different hubbub. Yet it’s impossible to find countries or peoples in the world today whose history includes nothing blameworthy. An overall identity-driven affinity and affection persists among their people even so.
There will always be a fringe of outlying haters. Those living in societies whose top political priority is the protection of individual rights — the United States, for example — have the great advantage of freedom to seek recruits to their point of view. But they are pitching lunacy, and they should not be surprised when their inroads are not great.

To celebrate America’s 250th anniversary, two marathon runners have assembled a team to unite the country in a marathon relay from sea to shining sea. 
The idea started when marathon runners Joe Nail and Wyatt Moss met and became friends while trying to complete 50 marathons in each of the 50 US states. 
“As America&#8217;s 250th birthday came into view, Joe had an idea: do something epic to bring the country back together,” the Relay for America website <a href="https://www.relayforamerica.org/about">said</a>. “A coast-to-coast relay, carrying the American flag from one ocean to the capital. He asked Wyatt to partner — and Wyatt pushed it further. Don&#8217;t make it a private feat. Open it to everyone and build the first mass-participation flag relay across the country.”
The idea for Relay for America was born – a marathon relay where more than 250 runners will carry the flag from California to the nation’s capital. Nail and Moss planned a route consisting of 3,016 miles, with each mile <a href="https://www.relayforamerica.org/honor">dedicated</a> to one of America’s veterans. 
The website mentions that the idea started with “a ragtag group of young people on a shoestring budget, with about two weeks to plan something most would spend years and hundreds of thousands of dollars on.” However, the founders of this movement mention that the spirit of American exceptionalism has kept the team going. 
“We think that America is still an exceptional place,” Nail said during a Fox News interview. “There’s this narrative — people like to talk about all the things that are wrong with America, and really the spirit of this relay is showing all the things that are right with America.”
The run began Sunday on Rodeo Beach in San Francisco when a group of about 15 people and the runner  touched the waters of the Pacific Ocean and started running east, as Moss <a href="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DZkz1TAveZa/">told</a> his audience on Instagram.

The <a href="https://www.relayforamerica.org/">home page</a> of the Relay for America has a map where viewers can see the flag’s current location and calculate the time the flag is expected to reach their state. 
The relay will be expected to take around 20 days, ending in Washington D.C. on the evening of July 2. The runners are currently averaging about 161 miles per day, running through all hours of the day. As of Friday, the flag had been carried all the way to Utah.
The <a href="https://www.relayforamerica.org/crew">website</a> offers opportunities for volunteers to work for management, media, comms, operations, press, and bookkeeping to make sure that the flag reaches the nation’s capital on July 4.

Former President Barack Obama said Thursday that America’s Founding Fathers “fell terribly short” when they adopted the Declaration of Independence in 1776 because they did not immediately abolish slavery. 
Obama made the remarks ahead of the official opening of his sprawling presidential library in Chicago, flanked by other former presidents, including Bill Clinton, George Bush, and Joe Biden. The library, which kicked off its opening day with a land acknowledgment, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/obama-museum-sets-records-including-how-much-itll-cost-you-to-get-in">cost</a> $850 million to construct and opened 3,437 days after Obama left office. 
&#8220;In forming our union, the founders fell terribly short of the Declaration&#8217;s promise, leaving slavery intact, allowing states to restrict the franchise to white men who owned property,” Obama said of the document&#8217;s proclamation that &#8220;all men are created equal&#8221; and are &#8220;endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights.&#8221;
“But in drafting a Constitution and a Bill of rights, they did have the foresight, the genius, to provide us with a framework that allows each generation to make our union more perfect,” Obama added.

“Over more than two centuries, through petitions and protests, marches and strikes, moral appeals from the pulpit and conversations at the family dinner table, men and women from all walks of life, of every color, every faith, every region took up the cause of democracy and made it their own. Until we the People came to include not just some of us, but all of us,” Obama added later.
The Obama family has been infamously critical of America’s past, with former first lady Michelle Obama once claiming that the first time she was ever proud of the United States as an adult was during her husband’s first presidential campaign. 
&#8220;For the first time in my adult life I am proud of my country because it feels like hope is finally making a comeback,” she said on the campaign trail in 2008. 
Obama’s comments come as the nation prepares to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the adoption of the Declaration.
In recognition of that milestone, President Donald Trump has promised to have the “largest fireworks show in history” to celebrate Independence Day. 
Trump said that the festivities will kick off on June 24 with music performed by the Army and Marine Corps military bands and Lee Greenwood. He said that Air Force fighter jets and stealth bombers would fly over for the ceremony taking place on the National Mall.

It’s the lost heritage the patriot craves today: the traditional kind of small-town, Southern charm marked by porch swings, county fairs, and main streets. A place where the children are welcome in nearly every setting. Where stores close on Sundays. Where it is the norm to run into a familiar face. This America isn&#8217;t gone; it&#8217;s alive and well in Franklin, Tennessee.
At the town square, a teenage girl sings to an ambling crowd as they window shop for homegrown goods, and a young boy with a violin reminds the older generations of simpler times. There are Victorian-era storefronts, a nearly century-old theater, stylish boutiques, and a local “book lovers’ paradise” filled with Mark Twain, C.S. Lewis, and the like. A few miles down the road, the Amish sell yogurt and raw milk at the farmers market. A barbecue food truck sends the sweet, tangy smell of smoking brisket through the air into the lungs of suburban families attending their Saturday morning ritual. 
When summer nears, humidity plagues every night and day — a characteristic of life in the South. Around the same time, mosquitoes, cicadas, and lightning bugs emerge, reminding the townsfolk of the blossoming garden among them. August may be the most oppressive month, as the blazing sun, steamy air, and perpetual use of anti-itch cream hinder any kind of outside enjoyment. Then suddenly, a random September weekend alleviates the muggy blanket, and what begins is a near-perfect, brisk autumn day. 
Life is slow in Franklin, Tennessee. People linger. They smile and open the door and talk to strangers. Middle school boys ride their bikes to the Circle K down the street to cool down with Slurpees. Local coffee shops teem with first dates, older couples pay a visit while on their daily walks, remote workers escape the isolation of home, and mothers with young children revel in the sunshine with an iced drink, hoping the children entertain each other. One staple spot just south of the square is an old gas station-turned café trademarked with the logo, “Your Daily Pit Stop.”
This town is a perpetual return to its storied past. From the 19th-century Carnton plantation to a historic stove factory converted to a shopping mall, a tribute to its heritage is embedded into the groundwork of everyday life.
Even the darkest chapters.
In 1864, a German immigrant named Johann Albert Lotz found himself in the middle of one of the deadliest battles in the Civil War. When the Battle of Franklin broke out, the Lotz family fled across the street to the Carter House, where the Carter family cowered in their basement as gunfire and artillery exploded all around them. The family’s son, Tod Carter, was just outside in the heart of the war, fighting that very day when he was fatally wounded in battle. He was carried home, just up the road, where he died surrounded by his family.
The homes are now treasured today as local museums known as the Lotz House and the Carter House. The history of what once took place serves as an ongoing reminder of the bloodshed spilled 160 years ago. A legacy not meant to be solely decorative, but to be remembered.
Patches of cemeteries and gravesites and memorials are scattered around town. Small American flags line the streets for the Fourth of July. Red, white, and blue tablecloths appear on front lawns. Fathers stand at the grill cooking burgers while children run through the heat with sunglasses, face paint, and firecrackers.
This is where nostalgic, old-fashioned, and classic Americana values have stopped to rest. Elsewhere, spectators scrutinize the American mindset, the notion that one could possibly be proud of their country and the freedoms preserved for it. Those freedoms safeguard their places of worship, guarantee their defense, reprimand the corrupt, protect the motherland, and solicit dignity and honor for those grateful enough to inhabit it. It is a mindset now nearly foreign to this country.
Maybe this is why people are moving in droves to places like Franklin, Tennessee. Americans sense something fragile is at risk: not merely a political affiliation, but a shared affection for the place itself. The most devastating aspect of the collapse of a nation is the one that comes from within, when people forget what’s most important. In the words of Benjamin Franklin when asked what kind of government the founders had created, he replied: “A republic, if you can keep it.&#8221;
The search for Americana is more than a remembrance of the past. It is preserved in the small rituals: meeting and knowing the neighbors, strolling through a park and fishing at a local pond, spending more time outside in nature than on screens, inviting new friends over for a homemade dinner, and enjoying the God-given freedoms unique to this nation, and this nation alone. Perhaps Americans are starting to return to this. Perhaps we are starting to remember.

Americans Are Moving Here In Droves. Spend A Day In Town And You’ll See Why.

Tennessee

Twenty-five years ago, it didn&#8217;t matter if you were red, white, blue, black, gold, or purple. On July Fourth, our nation&#8217;s birthday, Republicans and Democrats both showed up for the party.
Not anymore.
In 2026, we can&#8217;t agree on the color orange, whether water is wet, or what the American flag even stands for. And the polling proves it. Sixty-four percent of Republicans will display the American flag on July Fourth. Democrats? Twenty-seven percent.
Back in 2001 — before the towers fell, before the culture war went nuclear — Democrats and Republicans were nearly identical in how proud they were to call themselves Americans. Eighty-seven percent of the country, unified, coast to coast. Then came the decades of left-wing institutional rot, and here we are: 90% of Republicans say they are proud to be American. Democrats? 29%. That is a 61-point gap between two halves of a country that used to grill out together.
Absolutely pathetic.
The Left has always been a little less enthusiastic about American symbols, but this is more than dyspepsia; this is pure contempt. More Gen Z Democrats say they have little or no pride in being an American than say they are extremely or very proud. Think about that. The party of &#8220;our democracy&#8221; has produced a generation that actively dislikes the country more than they love it.
Instead of parties this July Fourth? They&#8217;ll be hosting off-key sing-alongs, mourning deported illegal aliens, and papering their doors with rainbow stickers. Old Glory won&#8217;t make an appearance.
Here&#8217;s why that matters.
That flag proudly wears thirteen stripes for the colonies that told a king to pound sand in 1776. Fifty stars for the states bound together under a Constitution that declared rights come from the Creator — not from government. It flew over Washington, crossing the Delaware in the snow. It inspired Francis Scott Key to write the national anthem while British rockets lit up the night over Fort McHenry. It led the charge at Normandy and planted itself on the moon.
The stars and stripes don’t represent perfection. They represent the longest-running experiment in ordered liberty the world has ever seen.
The modern Left cannot rally around any of that. Their entire worldview requires them to see America as an original sin that can never be forgiven. Slavery existed here — just as it existed on every continent for thousands of years. The difference is that the principles in that flag gave Americans the moral and legal tools to end it. The Left&#8217;s preferred history — the 1619 Project revision pushed in classrooms and newsrooms — pretends those principles never existed. It teaches children that the country was founded on oppression rather than on the radical idea that all men are created equal.
The feature, ladies and gentlemen, never the bug.
The New Left that took over universities in the 1960s and 1970s did not want to reform America. It wanted to delegitimize it. Herbert Marcuse and the critical theory crowd taught a generation that Western civilization, and America in particular, was the source of all repression. Repressive tolerance became the rule: shut down any defense of the country as “hate,” while every grievance gets a platform. Decades later, the results are in the polling.
Democrats who went through that education system now look at the flag the way a vampire looks at garlic.
They&#8217;ve been trained to see every American success as stolen and every American failure as proof the whole thing is rotten, all while living in the country with the highest living standards, the strongest military, the freest speech, and the most opportunity any large nation has ever produced. The hypocrisy writes itself.
So let them sulk. Let them treat July Fourth like a national day of mourning.
The rest of us still believe in the country that produced the Wright brothers, the polio vaccine, the internet, and the men and women who stormed beaches to liberate continents. Republicans aren’t just holding the line. We are still building. Entrepreneurs are creating jobs instead of burning buildings. Mothers are raising children instead of raising fists at the system. Young men are enlisting or starting businesses instead of majoring in resentment.
The revolutionary spirit that won independence never left the Right. It just got busy winning in the real world.
The numbers keep dividing because one side loves what America is, and the other resents what it has achieved. That isn&#8217;t a disagreement over policy. That is a fundamental rejection of the country itself.
Democrats hate the flag. We don’t.
This July Fourth, fly it anyway. Fly it high. Fly it for the people who built this place and for the ones still trying to keep it worth defending. 
The Left can keep their grievance parade. The rest of us have a country to celebrate.

Fourth of July

A pair of New York Democrats revealed who they were rooting for in the World Cup, and it wasn’t the United States. 
During an appearance last week on New York&#8217;s PIX11 TV channel, Rep. Adriano Espaillat (D-NY) and primary challenger Darializa Avila Chevalier both listed another country when asked who they were &#8220;rooting for&#8221; in the World Cup. The two are candidates in New York’s heavily Democratic 13th congressional district. 
“The first match this week in a MetLife Stadium taking place in New Jersey,” host Dan Mannarino said. “But what do you think will win it all? Who are you rooting for?”
“I like Mexico,” said Espaillat, who <a href="https://espaillat.house.gov/es/media/in-the-news/here%E2%80%99s-why-you-need-know-rep-adriano-espaillat-first-undocumented-immigrant">describes</a> himself as the “first formerly undocumented immigrant” to be elected to Congress. He says that he was brought to the United States from the Dominican Republic illegally by his parents before they were given green cards. 
“I&#8217;m rooting for Senegal,” said Chevalier, a far-Left candidate who identifies as a democratic socialist and is the child of immigrants from the Dominican Republic.

Espaillat is the chair of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus. He has been in Congress since 2017 and is backed by House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY). 
Chevalier is supported by New York democratic socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani and a coalition of leftist groups like the Council on American-Islamic Relations Action and the New York City Democratic Socialists of America. She previously <a href="https://www.cityandstateny.com/personality/2026/06/like-aoc-but-left/414164/">posted on social media</a>, “f*ck Kamala Harris” and called for “no more police at all ever.”
“The mayor and I strongly disagree as it relates to the congressional races, particularly the endorsement that was made against Congressman Adriano Espaillat,” Jeffries previously <a href="https://nypost.com/2026/06/14/us-news/jeffries-black-leaders-back-espaillat-rebuffing-mamdani-backed-candidate/">said</a>. “We are fully and squarely behind [Espaillat], and we are going to make sure we do everything we can to ensure he is re-elected.”
Early voting in the race began earlier this month though the official election day is June 23. 
Patriotism has <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/patriotism-drops-off-among-democrats-ahead-of-americas-250th-birthday">been declining</a> among Democrats for years, with just 29% of Democrats saying they are extremely or very proud to be an American ahead of the country’s 250th anniversary, according to an NBC News poll released on Sunday. That contrasts with about 90% of Republicans who say they are proud to be Americans.

President Donald Trump said Monday that the United States would celebrate its 250th birthday with the “largest fireworks show of all time.” 
Trump said on Truth Social that he plans to host “the most spectacular TRUMP RALLY of them all” at the Lincoln Memorial and Washington Monument in the nation’s capital on July 4. The event, called a “Tribute to America” will feature military bands, military flyovers, and fireworks. 
Trump said that a variety of military bands would play patriotic classics in the “largest formation of Joint Military Music and Ceremonial performances in History” and a “playlist” selected by him as well. 
“Starting at 7 P.M. EST, this HUGE Celebration will honor our Country&#8217;s People, Spirit, Strength, Resolve, and Triumphs,” Trump posted on Truth Social. “With the backdrop of the Lincoln Memorial and surrounding the beautifully new Reflecting Pool, more than 300 Members of our strong and talented Military Bands, Orchestras, and Ceremonial Units, will perform Patriotic Melodies and American Classics, and my Playlist (We will have none of those people that put you to sleep and constantly complain!), as we celebrate our Country, and Rally into the next 250 years.”
Trump said the event would include an air show featuring “incredible flyovers” and said that he would give a speech.
“To conclude the program, and commemorate this Historic Occasion, I will be launching, what will be, the LARGEST FIREWORKS SHOW IN HISTORY, right here in our Nation&#8217;s Capital. Do not miss it,” Trump added. 
The president&#8217;s promise of a historic fireworks show appeared to follow the advice of Founding Father John Adams, who once said that America&#8217;s independence should be celebrated with &#8220;bonfires and illuminations from one end of this continent to the other from this time forward forever more.&#8221;
In a separate post, Trump said that the kickoff for the summer of celebrating America’s 250th anniversary would take place on June 24 with music performed by the Army and Marine Corps military bands and Lee Greenwood. He said that Air Force fighter jets and stealth bombers would fly over for the ceremony taking place on the National Mall. 
“This Patriotic Tribute will take place on the Main Stage at the Freedom 250 Great American State Fair located on our Majestic National Mall, in what is now one of the safest Cities in the World, Washington D.C., which we are beautifying to levels never seen before,” Trump said. 
Trump’s announcement of the Fourth of July celebration comes after he hosted a UFC fight at the White House punctuated by a flyover by the Navy’s Blue Angels and Air Force Thunderbirds.

Independence Day

In just a few weeks, America turns 250 years old.
That’s honestly staggering when you stop and think about it. History is filled with kingdoms, empires, and nations that rose fast, burned bright, and disappeared just as quickly. Freedom, self-government, and individual liberty are not the historical norm. They’re rare. Fragile. Hard-earned things.
And yet here we are.
A little over a year ago, I found myself wrestling with a question I couldn’t quite shake: What could I possibly contribute to a moment this significant in our nation’s story?
The answer surprised me.
Write a novel.
Not because the world desperately needed another book, but because I kept hearing people — adults and kids alike — talk about history as if it were lifeless, dry, boring, and disconnected from real human emotion. Meanwhile, I looked around at our culture and saw something else happening: a country increasingly disconnected from sacrifice, gratitude, shared identity, and the understanding of what it actually costs to build and preserve this experiment called America.
And I think people are starving for stories that reconnect them to those things.
That’s where The Unlikely Life of Oliver Atkinson came from.
I want readers to feel the founding of this nation again — not as a chapter in a textbook, but as something dangerous, uncertain, human, and alive. I want them to step into the fear, courage, faith, loss, and hope of ordinary people caught inside extraordinary times.
So I imagined America’s founding through the eyes of a young orphan and indentured servant who suddenly finds himself swept into the chaos of the Boston Tea Party aboard one of the very ships that were raided that night. Eventually, he’s taken in by Paul Revere and introduced to the world of the Sons of Liberty, where he comes of age as the nation itself is born.
But the deeper truth is this: Oliver’s story really isn’t about Oliver alone.
It’s about us.
Because America itself was young then. Vulnerable. Divided. Uncertain of whether it would survive. The Founders weren’t marble statues standing frozen in perfection. They were flesh-and-blood human beings trying to hold together an impossible dream under enormous pressure. Farmers. Printers. Merchants. Mothers. Soldiers. Clergymen. Imperfect people carrying unimaginable weight.
And the more I researched, the more I realized how much they risked.
When the signers pledged “their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor,” those weren’t poetic words for a history classroom wall. If they lost, many of them would have been executed as traitors.
My own ancestor, Charles Carroll of Carrollton, signed his name boldly enough that the British would know exactly who he was. He had wealth, status, comfort — everything to lose. Yet he signed anyway.
Why?
Because some things are bigger than comfort.
Some things are worth sacrifice.
And I think deep down, Americans still know that.
That’s part of why stories like this matter right now. We live in a time where cynicism is easy, division is constant, institutions are mistrusted, and national identity itself is often treated as something embarrassing or dangerous rather than something worth understanding, protecting, and improving.
But people still hunger for meaning. They still long for courage. They still respond to stories of sacrifice, conviction, faith, redemption, and purpose. They want to believe there are still things bigger than self-interest.
That hunger is everywhere right now.
And maybe that’s because beneath all the noise, Americans still want to reconnect with who we are, not in some simplistic or sanitized way, but honestly. With humility. With gratitude. With perspective.
America has never been perfect. The Founders knew that. But they also understood something modern people sometimes forget: freedom requires virtue, sacrifice, responsibility, courage, and citizens willing to preserve it.
Benjamin Franklin famously said we had been given “a republic, if you can keep it.”
Two hundred and fifty years later, that question still hangs in the air.
As we approach this remarkable milestone in our history, maybe the best thing we can do is remember. Remember what was risked. Remember what was built. Remember the people who gave everything so future generations might have the chance to live freely.
That’s ultimately why I wrote The Unlikely Life of Oliver Atkinson.
Not simply to entertain people — though I hope it does that too — but to help readers feel connected to the courage, sacrifice, faith, and fragile hope that helped give birth to this nation in the first place.
