Two-Hundred and Fifty years ago the The delegates to the Second Continental Congress represented the Thirteen Colonies, twelve of the colonies voted to approve the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776.

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal” opens the second paragraph of the Declaration of Independence and is followed by “that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”
The other mentions of a deity are “Laws of Nature, Nature’s God, Creator,” No in God we trust. Freedom of religion guaranteed as well as freedom from religion. Reading further to the sins of King George III there is an uncanny connection to 47. “He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty & perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.” Sadly 1775 is a mirror of 2025. Read it today. Stop looking at Cat Memes. Resist. Slow down in front of police cars. Obey the laws of the land. Spent cash. Deconsume. Change who you are or surrender or stand with the enemy. There are choices.
The Declaration of Independence.
All we have to do is change He to Trump.
Independence.
Now more than ever.
If you can’t change the world, change yourself. If you can’t change yourself, change the world – LONELY PLANET THE THE.
