249 years later, and we have way too many people who still consider people of color as inferior, we have way too many people who would rather patrol the public bathrooms or sports teams for fear that the dreaded Transperson might be there to commit some kind of perverted action, all the while these same way too many people support a convicted rapist, and a man who refuses to release the truth regarding Pedophiles.
249 years later, and once again, we have way too many people who want to relegate women as chattel, as property, including way too many women doing so! Of course, many of these women who proudly demonstrate their own form of misogyny are in positions of power, have great education, but continue to act upon their own hypocrisy.
249 years later, we have a President who has become a multi-billionaire, along with his family, while serving as the Executive of this nation. It almost seems like the United States is his own corporation. He has his private attorney as the Attorney General, acting on behalf of his client, rather than on behalf of “we the people.”
And yet, even with our Constitution and the celebration of freedom, 249 years later, the current occupant of the White House is enabled and permitted to erase any and all advances made in equality, freedom, and democratic principles.
It is Friday, July 3, 2026, a day before our 250th year as a Republic, and I seriously worry about day 251 for the people of the United States!
