Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

As part of the 250th celebration of our Independence Day, there are various ongoing events in/around Washington DC all day. A speech by President Trump is scheduled for 8:00pm ET with a massive fireworks show to follow.
The “Salute to America” festivities will take place all day, so we are including several livestream links below as well as specific livestream links that will activate for President Trump’s speech later this evening.

I’m not sure why Canadian media needed to emphasize the absence of Ruth; but, oh well, bye.
Canada became the first of the co-hosts to exit the World Cup as a clinical Morocco won 3-0 to reach the quarter-finals on Saturday in Houston. The 2022 semi-finalists Morocco will face title favourites France or Paraguay as the business end of the tournament in North America approaches. (more)
An ancillary note of historic irony. In December of 1777, Morocco was the first country to recognize American independence. Sultan Mohammed III of Morocco issued a declaration allowing American ships to freely enter Moroccan ports, granting them the same privileges as vessels from nations with established treaties, effectively recognizing the United States as a sovereign nation.
Susan Kokinda from the Promethean Action PAC returns to their Lyndon LaRouche roots and describes the American 250th Birthday Celebration through the prism of modern Britain.
…”Kokinda connects the Declaration’s appeal to the Laws of Nature and Nature’s God to economics, quoting Lyndon LaRouche on a state shaping a nation’s relationship to the physical universe. She highlights speeches by Jamieson Greer and Scott Bessent on production over consumption, and J.D. Vance’s call for a Hamiltonian approach grounded in human dignity, linking it to the Declaration’s “pursuit of happiness” over “property.”… WATCH:
.
Amid the Promethean group, Kokinda appears to be the voice with greatest connection to traditional LaRouche thinking. Her partner, Barbara Boyd, appears to be the more pragmatic end of the LaRouche spectrum, accepting things President Trump does more as they are, without having to pigeon-hole the motive into the narrow LaRouche view.
Meh, but at the end of the day – it’s all just an information buffet.
I am very glad to see Secretary of State Marco Rubio dropping away from this “America is an idea” gibberish I keep hearing about. America is not an idea, it is a nation of people – unique, distinct and very visible.

The EU President Ursula von der Leyen travelled to Ireland to deliver remarks as Ireland takes their turn in managing the bureaucratic affairs of the EU Commission. As part of her speech to the audience, von der Leyen notes one of the biggest challenges facing the EU is a housing and affordability crisis.
In the last 10 years, Europe has intentionally allowed around 50 million migrants to arrive and claim asylum. The majority of the EU citizens did not want this migrant influx. EU leadership is now declaring a “housing crisis” created by their own migrant policies. WATCH:
.
At this point in history, the European leadership is just making fun of European citizens.
Our Independence Day!
As dawn rises the next chapter begins….
Happy Birthday America!
Some will say she is not perfect; they are wrong. It is within our imperfections that she remains uniquely perfect.
Heavenly Father, breathe Your spirit into our land. We beg You to fertilize every seed of right, moral and appropriate pride to stand together in brotherhood, even when we are not united. Let Your light shine through the imperfect cracks of our assembly, creating a bonding love that guides our deeds and decisions.
Lord that grants us the abundance of an expanding universe, let today trigger a revival in our hearts. We ask that You breath your purpose upon the ember of our national soul and ignite within us a thankfulness and appreciation for the blessings that You provide. May the ignition once again focus our stewardship and passion to live according to Your word, on this land which You have provided.
Father, direct Your favor to our thoughts of humility and purpose, so that we may stand bold, steadfast, diligent, honest and true in Your pure light and intent. Expand our heart to see Your gift, grasp its value and embrace this moment of reflection and renewal.
We ask Your blessings to remain as a shield for our nation; covered with Your wings of protection and purpose. We ask You to receive our prayer today and place Your spirit of peace and stability upon our celebration. We cherish the opportunity to rejoice today in the abundance You have provided. Guide us to remain faithful and deserving of Your grace. ~Amen
Happy Birthday, everyone!
