Open Borders, Anti-American Rage, and a Fourth of July Divide

- Tom Shattuck of The Maine Wire fills in for Gerry. - The episode opens with a Fourth of July contrast, arguing that America’s 250th birthday is exposing a political and cultural divide between patriotic celebration and a left that openly roots for socialism, anti-Americanism, and national decline. - A major focus is the Supreme Court’s birthright citizenship ruling, with the episode arguing that the 14th Amendment is being twisted to reward illegal entry, protect birth tourism, and create automatic citizenship for children of foreign nationals with no real allegiance to the country. - Another recurring theme is the collapse of civic and cultural standards, from pride events and anti-Christian hostility to media coverage that reframes America’s founding through progressive identity politics instead of national achievement. - Happy 4th of July!
