America has always been strongest when her citizens question power—not when they blindly follow it. Today, I celebrate the Declaration of Independence, not the people trying to turn July 4th into a campaign rally. Patriotism isn't loyalty to a party or personality. It's holding our nation accountable to its own promises—liberty and justice for all, especially when that means pushing back hard. Some of us will cook out next week. Some of us are working through the festivities. Either way, we're still here, still paying attention, still believing in better. Happy Fourth. #FourthOfJuly #StillWatching #LibertyAndJustice
