George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸 @gtconway.bsky.social
It is now July 4, 2026, and thus officially the 250th anniversary of our wonderful Nation's adventure into the realm of independence, freedom, and democracy. Nothing would be more appropriate than for it to happen today. The odds are it won't happen today. (1/2)

"In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A Prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people."

Patriotism isn't about building walls, punishing immigrants, cutting taxes for the rich, attacking the press, or dividing us by race & faith. True patriots don't pander to divisiveness or hate. They work to confirm the "WE" in "We the People of the United States."

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.”
