Bonne Fete Nationale!
Happy Bastille Day!
Down with all tyrants and traitors!
“What does this horde of slaves,
Of traitors and conspiring kings want?
For whom these vile chains,
These long-prepared irons?
“Countrymen, for us! What outrage
What furious action it must arouse!
It is to us they dare plan
A return to the old slavery!”
- La Marseillaise

Trump might win a Pyrrhic victory against Obamacare, as the balance of judicial power shifts his way washingtonpost.com/news/powerpost…
The Supreme Court has already ruled on the ACA – Sebelius, 2022, It struck down required Medicaid expansion, but upheld the rest. But the vote was 5-4. So, yes, it is possible.
(A Pyrrhic victory is a great win which carries within in ultimate doom. King Pyrrhus, the nephew of Alexander the Great, captured the entire Italian peninsula, & then the Greek cities in western Sicily. In doing so, he lost so much of his army, so he lost Italy.)

Weird Bastille Day thread. I went to a French cafe here in Blacksburg today to work on my sermon and do some other work. They were preparing for their annual Bastille Day feast, little French flags everywhere, and as you would expect, this caused a personal crisis. 1/
Three years ago, my family had the privilege of being in Paris on Bastille Day. This was a once in a lifetime trip, made in part to fulfill a promise to @genevalark8 that we would take her to her namesake city, Geneva, home of the Reformation. 2/
We did get there but first by way of London, Brussels (b/c Tintin), and Paris. We were mostly in Paris to see all the art, but happened to be there on July 14th. I love French military history, but the art and the crowds around the parade set our agenda: the Louvre. 3/

Happy Independence Day America!

Remember, our Independence was won in combat, from April 19, 1775 on. The Declaration just made it official.

To my brother veterans: now it’s our turn. Prepare to “Stand to” in defense of liberty against all enemies.@StewartRhodesOK #standto
The Declaration of Independence

IN CONGRESS, JULY 4, 1776

The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America

When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another ...
and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

Happy #IndependenceDay
"Enjoy the fireworks and drink a toast to awful presidents. If we got through James Buchanan, Andrew Johnson and Watergate, we can probably get through anything...Which is pretty much our current challenge." #ThursdayThoughts nytimes.com/2019/07/03/opi…
2-"Happy Fourth of July, everybody. I want you to have a great day. No moaning about the state of the nation. Don’t obsess about Donald Trump! It’s true he thought watching a bunch of tanks roll through Washington, D.C., would be a great way of celebrating our national character.
3-"Fortunately, it turned out the city streets couldn’t support his vision. The military came up with a compromise, dragging in tanks and other tanklike vehicles on flatbed trucks, in a very expensive show totally unrelated to their actual function.

Thank you to everyone for paying attention to the buses I sent round that said there would by £350,000,000 per week for your country's health system, if you voted the way I wanted you to.

Che bella la Master of Elusion #amazon che licenzia centinaia di ̷s̷c̷h̷i̷a̷v̷i̷ dipendenti ogni anno nei suoi magazzini in "sottoproduzione" (ossia che sforano al ribasso la rigida metrica stabilita da precisi algoritmi di Artificial Intelligence AI).

Poi quando la Master of Elusion #amazon si accorge di un video che le reca un po' di prurito... succede che quel video, dopo anni di fiera militanza nel canale Tu(mi)Tu(r)bi dell'Unità, decide per partito preso di emigrare all'estero.
