The Morning Report — 7/5/24Good Morning Kids. Hope you all had a happy and festive Independence Day. It's natural as we get to be of a certain age, to look back on our younger days and of happier times. For me, I came of age in the late 60s and early70s and so the Bicentennial was one of those events that I can distinctly remember, as it was both smack dab in the middle of my high school years and then about a week later, a memorable road trip with my dad to visit relatives in Chicago. Despite the rampant commercialization of the day that was ever-present and almost inescapable wherever you turned since even before New Year's eve '76, there was still a definite sense that people were sick and tired of the 60s, ready to move beyond Vietnam and had a general distaste for the hippie generation. And yet, 48 years later look who the hell is running the country, and steering society and culture. Along with the bicentennial, the other seminal event that occurred four years later was the US Olympic hockey team winning gold in 1980 by defeating finland after first gaining a huge win against the much feared and vaunted Soviets. And then came Ronald Reagan and what should have been a complete rejection of the failures of Leftism. But still, look where we are. And two years from now The American revolution will be 250 years in the past. How will it be celebrated, or the question is in fact will it even be celebrated? Given the fact that we have academics and politicians who believe that this nation is both illegitimate and evil and ditto its founding. On this Fourth of July, we are in another civil war (dubbed by me more than a decade ago as the Cold Civil War), this one a duel to the death between the Nation and the State. Here, and all across Europe, the Nation must win, regain control over the State and, if necessary, dissolve it. As history shows, it's easier to disestablish a form of government -- the French are on their Fifth Republic in the same amount of time that America has had only one -- than it is to kill a nation. But make no mistake: that's the goal the International Left has set for itself since Lenin was a pup. The tide is now running in our favor; celebrate our national birthday by acting accordingly. YEs, as my dear friend and friend of the blog Michael Walsh underscores in yet another fine essay is that much of the Western world and even here in America have woken up to abject failures and intentional destruction of society. Yet the election results in both France and the UK and even in places like Poland and Hungary seem to fly in the face of that observation. Will Biden's corpse or whoever it is that replaces him also defy what most seem to feel will be a stinging rejection of institutional leftists come November? Another miracle happened on July 4th of 1976 which had us glued to our TV sets and still echoes today, 48 years later. For those of a certain age, the word Entebbe is instantly recognizable. We all know about July 4 and the amazing miracle that happened on this date 248 years ago in Philadelphia. Bur some of us are old enough to remember another July 4 miracle that happened not in 1776, but in 1976. It was not in Pennsylvania but in Uganda, and it's something we should all be aware of in this world of hostages today. . . Have a great weekend.
