🤯 The Lunatic Left Series is a (near) daily curation of X posts and other items that catch my eye while I do my morning news “rounds” over ☕️ coffee. It’s not meant to be comprehensive, merely a snapshot of the lunatic left with whom we share a planet 🌎.
The left can always be counted on to ruin everything good, and Independence Day — our 250th! — certainly is no exception. In fact, you could even argue the 4th — especially this 🎇 4th — is a high holiday for the Let’s-Wreck-Everything crowd. So let’s see what our friends have been up to for this 📜 historic day.
First up, San Diego:
Of course, Massachusetts can always be counted on. Evidently, according to them, the bird Cuisinarts (wind turbines) which they love and which litter the Bay State’s horizons & hillsides aren’t a hazard for our feathered friends 🦅 (even though there’s an abundance of evidence that they actually are), but 🇺🇸 American flags are a problem? Seriously????
I’d pay good money for actual evidence of a single bird harmed by our flag — any flag. I’d bet every penny I have that there is no evidence, no science whatsoever to back that up. Zero. Zip. Nada.
Massachusetts’ capitol city, Boston got in on the action too. You’ll see as you read here that “propping up Somalis while diminishing our veterans” was a fashionable thing to do in the lead-up to the 4th.
If it’s not local government trying to rain on our 250th parade, it’s HOAs. I’ve seen other anti-American HOAs around my various news sites but this is the one I grabbed after it became evident that this was becoming a thing. It’s a very safe bet that this California Home Owner’s Association (and the others I saw) is full of Democrats. (We have a wonderful HOA where we live in the mountains of Western North Carolina so at least there’s that!)
Let’s buzz a few hundred miles northwest and see what our friends in Buffalo, NY are up to. Oh look, they’re celebrating Somali Independence Day! That warranted an official ceremony, but gathering for the 250th birthday of our Independence? No. That doesn’t warrant any flag-raising ceremonies. (Is there some science that says the Somali flag won’t hurt birds? I’m just wondering…)
And just to throw salt in the wound, Buffalo has canceled their 4th of July fireworks. Screw these people. Seriously.
Well look at that: Cleveland got in on the Somali action too. (Again, I’d love to see the science that the 🇸🇴 Somali flag isn’t a hazard to birds but the 🇺🇸 American flag is.) The article notes that Cleveland has the second largest Somali population in America (after Minneapolis). Hey — here’s a thought: you know where you can find the Somali flag if you’re so hot to have a Somali flag? SOMALIA. Or maybe I’m just cranky.
If you’re not familiar with San Rafael, CA, it’s just a short drive over the Golden Gate Bridge. It’s a liberal enclave, a suburb of San Francisco, so yes, you will find it lousy with Democrats. I guess at this point we should be glad they flew the flag at all, though to fly it upside down — a sign of grave distress — is gross. Maybe if it flies upside down it can’t hurt the birds? I don’t know. I give up.
Even Grok was hard-pressed to find a Democrat who could just flat-out celebrate American Liberty without a “but”…
And finally, a palate cleanse with some fun facts about the 4th and about George Washington. He was a gas!
The cut-off text reads:
table and bolted to the kennels. The General just laughed while Martha sat there furious.
But the dogs were only half of it. The man could DANCE. In 1779 he partnered with Kitty Greene at a ball and the two of them danced for over three hours straight without sitting down once. People at the time said he was actually elite at it. He called it “so agreeable and innocent an amusement.”
And in his final years his big retirement hobby was building a whiskey distillery. Not a little hobby still either. By 1799 it was the largest distillery in America, cranking out 11,000 gallons a year.
So the real George Washington: breeds hunting dogs with names like Drunkard, dances for three hours straight, runs the biggest whiskey operation in the country. Founding Father behavior.
Hah! How great is that?
And how impressive this this???? (Note: most were home-schooled.)
Now — sadly — compare to our current youngin’s (most of whom are not home-schooled — which should tell us all something.)
Here’s a neat piece of history:
And last, break out your rimshot sound-effect, Merriam-Webster had some fun 😂:
Hah!
Have a wonderful 4th, patriots. ❤️🇺🇸
Happy 4th….let freedom ring!!!!!
Happy 4th, patriots!
