We're now a month away from America's 250th anniversary, and it seems the Left is going to do whatever it can to undermine the celebrations. Heaven forbid we put aside partisan politics for a moment to appreciate this country that has given us the opportunity to live with political, social, and economic freedoms not enjoyed anywhere else in the world.
But I get it: Democrats hate America. To them, it's a racist nation, founded by racist slaveowners, who ... in case Democrats haven't mentioned it in the last six seconds, were racist. They were really hoping that either Joe Biden or Kamala Harris would be at the helm for the 250th, which would have been reduced to the great American apology tour.
And because they didn't get their way, they're going to go out of their way to threaten, cancel, and sabotage those of us who are planning to enjoy Independence Day.
Trump's Freedom 250 event on National Mall sabotaged by vandals - causing fuel to contaminate underground water https://t.co/Vu6qqXiHJf pic.twitter.com/jJkC7UvFoH

Vandals sabotaged generators at President Trump’s Freedom 250 event, according to a spokeswoman — and fuel leached into underground water tanks, contaminating them.
A generator fuel line set up for temporary lights for a May 17 event was cut, causing fuel to seep into underground cisterns that collect rainwater under the Washington, DC, landmark, Freedom 250 spokeswoman Rachel Reisner told NBC News.
“Following the Freedom 250 team’s installation of temporary lighting on the National Mall, our equipment has been repeatedly targeted by vandals. The recent fuel leak was the direct result of that tampering,” she said.
“Upon discovering damage to a generator fuel line, Freedom 250 and our vendors mobilized within minutes, coordinated an immediate cleanup response, and fully remediated the site in close partnership with the National Park Service,” Reisner went on.
“We take our responsibility as stewards of the National Mall seriously and are working closely with the appropriate law enforcement authorities regarding these acts of vandalism.”
A handful of municipalities have canceled or scaled back celebrations this year, citing 'security concerns.' What they mean is that Leftist terrorists are making it impossible for law-abiding Americans to celebrate our nation's birth. The irony of the eco-cult crowd also harming the environment in their act of vandalism also isn't lost on me.
They'd confiscated my Honda in a heartbeat to 'save the planet,' only to spill fuel into the water to resist President Trump.
Expect more of this as we get closer to July 4. More cancellations. More threats. More hot-take thinkpieces from the media about how America sucks. More celebrities refusing to honor the country that made them rich and famous.
It's how they are.
