Nine Democrat-Led States, Plus Vermont, Refuse to Send any Delegation to the Nation's 250th Anniversary "National State Fair"
Julia 🇺🇸
@Jules31415 10 states--Connecticut, Illinois, Maine, Massachusetts, North Carolina, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, Washington, and Pennsylvania--have confirmed they will not send an official delegation to the "Great American State Fair" on the National Mall in celebration of America's 250th. 9 of the states are led by Democratic governors, with Vermont being the only Republican-governed state to decline involvement so far. Notably, PA Gov. Josh Shapiro tops the list of highest paid governors.
It's the countdown to the nation's 250th anniversary, but it doesn't feel like it. The left is doing a good job of what it always does, ruining things with their endless, insatiable hatred and drive to destroy. Here's some of what Wikipedia has to say about the bicentennial celebrations of 1976:
1976 events 1976 festivities included elaborate fireworks in the skies above major US cities. President Ford presided over the display in Washington, D.C., which was televised nationally. Celebrations in cities and towns across the nation opened into full effect including celebrations such as Operation Sail (Op Sail), a large international fleet parade of tall-masted sailing ships gathering first in New York City on Independence Day and then in Boston about one week later. Other large-scale events, such as reenactments, parades, and booms in commercialized commemoration, spread across the nation as the year went on.Trump is trying to do something with this National State Fair concept but the left is boycotting as usual. Poll: Most Democrats want to leave the US but unfortunately they're all lazy and incapable of doing any of the things they say they want t o do.
New York In addition to the presence of the 'tall ships', navies of many nations sent warships to New York harbor for an International Naval Review held the morning of July 4. President Ford sailed down the Hudson River into New York harbor aboard the guided missile cruiser USS Wainwright to review the international fleet and receive salutes from each visiting ship, ending with a salute from the Royal Navy guided-missile destroyer HMS London. The review ended just above Liberty Island at around 10:30 am. Washington, D.C. Johnny Cash served as the Grand Marshal of the US Bicentennial parade.[24] The event was attended by Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip. The royal couple made a state visit to the United States, toured the country, and attended other Bicentennial functions with President and Mrs. Ford. Their visit aboard the British royal yacht HMY Britannia included stops in Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., Virginia, New York, Connecticut, and Massachusetts. The Smithsonian Institution opened a long-term exhibition in its Arts and Industries Building replicating the look and feel of the 1876 Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia, including artifacts from earlier exposition. The Bicentennial Festival of American Folklife, a collaboration of the Smithsonian with thousands of national and international scholars, folk artisans, and performers, hosted programs in the western part of the National Mall five days a week for twelve weeks in the summer of 1976.[25] The Smithsonian also opened the new home of the National Air and Space Museum on July 1, 1976.[26] Government celebration
George Washington was posthumously appointed to the grade of General of the Armies of the United States by the congressional joint resolution Public Law 94-479 passed January 19, 1976, with an effective appointment date of July 4, 1976.[27] This restored Washington's position as the highest-ranking military officer in US history.[a] NASA commemorated the Bicentennial by staging a science and technology exhibit housed in a series of geodesic domes in the parking lot of the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) called Third Century America. An American flag and the Bicentennial emblem were also painted on the side of the VAB; the emblem remained until 1998, when it was painted over with the NASA insignia. NASA planned for Viking 1 to land on Mars on July 4, but delayed the landing to July 20, the anniversary of the Apollo 11 lunar landing. On the anniversary of the signing of the Constitution, NASA held the rollout ceremony of the first Space Shuttle (which NASA had planned to name Constitution but was, instead, named "Enterprise" in honor of its fictional namesake on the television series Star Trek[29]). Delaware crossing reenactment On November 20 and 21 of 1976, participants immersed themselves in the era by donning period-accurate uniforms and equipping themselves with the tools and weaponry characteristic of that Christmas night over two centuries prior.[30] The reenactment unfolded as a grand spectacle, featuring a flotilla of boats navigating the icy currents of the Delaware River. Since then, the Crossing the Delaware reenactment has occurred every year to relive and recognize this moment.[31]
Are you seeing any bunting or just feeling the 250th coming?
A new survey from Elon University found that a majority of Democrats would prefer living in another country rather than the United States, underscoring growing ideological divides over patriotism, national identity, and perceptions of the American Dream. One of the June 2 survey's most notable findings showed that 55 percent of Democrats answered "yes" when asked whether there is another country where they would rather live today than the United States. Only 10 percent of Republicans responded similarly. The result suggests that many Democrats view the United States less favorably than Republicans, despite Democrats continuing to participate in the country's political and cultural institutions. The survey found even more dramatic differences regarding America's upcoming 250th anniversary. Sixty-eight percent of Republicans reported feeling proud about America250, while only 18 percent of Democrats said the same. Likewise, 75 percent of Republicans agreed that the American Dream remains achievable regardless of circumstance if people work hard enough, compared to just 25 percent of Democrats. The gap suggests that attitudes toward America's history and founding ideals increasingly break along partisan lines, even as universities and civic organizations prepare for the historic anniversary.
This is one of the most petty and disgraceful examples of politics I think I’ve ever seen. https://t.co/l4nZMsHhlv

One of the dumbest things about the debate over “nationalism” is that the same people who tell you it’s toxic and dangerous in the West will then dance on stage in a nationalistic frenzy over a country so dangerous they can’t even live there. https://t.co/Y9Zd7AtEbt

It's not just that. It's also that successful normal people in the country have a lot going on and are already enjoying life. I don't think traveling to DC -- or doing anything special -- on one of the hottest days of the summer is an appealing proposition.
We are doing our normal July 4th BBQ party we've been doing for years. We got a custom "250th" banner, and got some special cigars, scotch, and wine. But otherwise, it won't be that much different than normal.
The weather is supposed to be 100 degrees (in the NYC area) and humid with scattered thunderstorms. That will put a damper on most people's enthusiasm for outdoor events.

I'll think about the fest next week, if it's still open (I assume they closed for a lot of the weekend weather - it was lousy)...

You will get what you wish only after you recreate the post-Tito Yugoslavia. Only then will you get what you wish. It would be simpler to resolve things without the mass graves, but that is what it will need for you to get what you call for.

I remember all the fire hydrants in the neighborhood getting painted red white and blue. We lived in base housing in those days so I don't know how wide-spread that was. The Archie Saturday cartoons had "Revolutionary Archie" episodes that were set in 1776. Captain Kangaroo had a lot of shows where he talked about what life was like in the Colonial period. And the Bicentennial quarters of course. Those were neat. Speaking of which, there's a new quarter design that will be out by the 4th celebrating the Declaration of Independence. George gets a new design and Liberty Bell on the back. PLUS just 250,000 of them will have a special "July 4th" insignia on the front and they're all mixed in with the others. It will be a national treasure hunt! Keep an eye out for those, they WILL be worth something.

You can see who is celebrating and who isn't when you drive around towns and cities.
The liberal enclaves look like it is January 14th and just a regular day.
The white collar middle class neighborhoods look like a typical summer with the usual number of American flags and patriotic decor.
The blue collar middle class neighborhoods look like Uncle Sam busted a huge nut with more American flags and patriotic decor than a 4th of July.
Of course, I still can't believe that Thomas Jefferson would write the Declaration of Independence so close to Pride Month.

PA thing is a little more complex than implied above. Shaprio had the Chamber of Commerce (obviously diametrically opposed to Trump's policies, especially on immigration) do a survey of PA businesses to see if any would participate....they claim none wanted to, which is debatable. THEN, Shaprio sent $700,000 of PA taxpayer money in place of delegates. This pissed off Lumpy Fetterman, who put together his own delegate group separate from Shapiro's failure.

Leftists lie a lot. Too many of those assholes think the tourist bubble that they are in when traveling abroad is representative of real life in those countries. About like Euros coming here for the World Cup believed a bunch of stupid media stories. Only way to experience real life in such places is either a lengthy stay and a conscious effort to get out into the countryside and outside the city centers.

PA is putting something together now. Thanks to our two Senators and to Salena Zito for making a stink about it.
Josh didn't want to do it, he was again acting in solidarity with the Leftist Governors (just like with COVID).
He isn't doing a single thing. he didn't involve the CoC. he just said "we aren't doing it Nyah Nyah"
but not the CoC is involved and lots of big companies from PA are moving on it. There's a replica of the Liberty Bell on the way today, will be up on display tomorrow.
so, yay Lumpy!

Even the places liberals think are "way better" than America like Scandanavian countries are not great. I worked for a company that had a presence there and it's basically like everyone is lower middle class, except for a few oligarchs.
Even the "wealthy" seem very middle class compared to American standards.
This really is the best country by far, we just have the evil left like every country does.

Even the "wealthy" seem very middle class compared to American standards.
In 1980 Western Europe living standards were about equal to American ones.
They've had very little growth since then however.

That didn't end too well in the 1820s, when New Harmony opened up in upstate New York.
They basically ended living off Robert Owen's acquired wealth. But, then again, it was his idea in the first place.

They were involved from the start. THEY are the ones that convinced Shapiro that PA businesses had no interest in sending delegates or participating financially....and the COC in PA is MAJORLY PRO-IMMIGRATION...so it's hard to take the COC at their word or assume that there wasn't pressure applied.
ok Orson but the snub was all Governor Shapiro. as far as that messaging, I think he made it up.
that's what they're claiming anyway.

Nationwide. TBH, it felt like there was a lot more planning the 2 years leading up to the 200th. TV networks played the "bidecential minute." half the products in the food stores had special packaging, and each town had a committee, which included the painting of fire hydrants, etc....
So I remember many towns in NE having painted hydrants. Not all, but many. Some had them painted up like little soldiers (and the top was the cap...) and some just red white and blue.

There are a few of those woopsie videos out there, with all manner of problems. The "trans nonbinary" woman who fled to Canada with her "partner" did get some Canadian university gig after much panic and despair. (She's still psychotic, though.)
Another family got to Italy on the husband's Italian ancestry shortly before Italy changed the law and now their fate is up in the air. You'll never believe this, but the Italian bureaucracy is very slow and unreliable on handling their appeal or even clarifying their status.
My favorite is a Black woman married to a Hispanic guy. Background: his parents got to America from Mexico (doubtless amnestied or something). The couple sold EVERYTHING, quit their jobs, moved to Mexico over his parents' incredulous hand-wringing, and promptly fell into massive medical expense (It's not free????) because all three of their kids got sick probably drinking the local water and they had to move back to the States, where they now have to start all over from nothing. She's asking her followers to send her money and trying to get American healthcare for the sickest kid.

In my development we have large American flags flying in front of almost every house . Courtesy of the local high school offering a program to put up and take down the flags on every appropriate holiday for a reasonable donation.

In my neighborhood a lot of houses have flags and other decorations up already. More than the usual 4th of July stuff. One house had their garage door painted into an American flag which is kinda cool.

Leftists lie a lot. Too many of those assholes think the tourist bubble that they are in when traveling abroad is representative of real life in those countries. About like Euros coming here for the World Cup believed a bunch of stupid media stories. Only way to experience real life in such places is either a lengthy stay and a conscious effort to get out into the countryside and outside the city centers.
---
The Philly leftists are crowing about how much the World Cup crowds are loving the city. And to be fair, there are no reports of any foreigners getting murdered. Residents, however......
The tourists aren't sticking around long enough to experience the real charm of the K & A Zombie Zone.

They want us demoralized and feeling as bad about our country as they do - if you give them anything, make it your middle finger and your boot on their ass.

I actually bought some decorations this year since it is our 250th. I don't usually spend money on that kind of stuff.
We have a neighbor who does maximalist decor for all the traditional holidays. They have the flags and the bunting and a Trump flag. In response, the son (being raised as a daughter) of the lefties across the street yells and texts all kinds of abuse and threats against my neighbor. When alerted about her son's/"daughter's" behavior, the mom simply said she believes people should be able to voice their opinions. She had nothing to say about whether people she disagrees with have the right to not be harassed for their opinions.
It should be noted that the lefty's neighbors have all been friendly and kind to them -- inviting them to dinner and checking on their well-being after their camper caught fire. No one has been ugly except the lefties.

Risky for them though -- if the goatfuckers take over, where will they go? Seems unlikely, but they are growing numbers in many states, including TX. So having dual citizenship to go to Israel is a convenient redoubt for them.
Seriously though, it doesn't actually matter since Israel will offer them some special visa that equates to citizenship, but "isn't" if the US forces them to renounce. There is no good solution here.

There is a/c in Europe. But it’s generally a rich person thing to have. Same with car ownership. Rich people in Europe don’t take the bus, they drive. They also fly instead of taking a train. And rich people also tend to own single family homes, apartments are a lot/middle class thing.
Everything American leftists love about Europe is really what poor people do in Europe.

I would add that in 1976 the percentage of Americans living in America was much higher.
But after 50 years of unrestrained immigration from the worst Thunderdome shitholes on the planet, the percentage of Americans in America is now drastically less.
Even foreigners who like and appreciate being here probably won't feel any affinity to the country's 250th. The invader animals and flotsam and jetsam? None at all.

Risky for them though -- if the goatfuckers take over, where will they go? Seems unlikely, but they are growing numbers in many states, including TX. So having dual citizenship to go to Israel is a convenient redoubt for them.
Seriously though, it doesn't actually matter since Israel will offer them some special visa that equates to citizenship, but "isn't" if the US forces them to renounce. There is no good solution here.

I'd trade them for any of the native peoples in their preferred countries who will sign a pledge never to take any form of welfare in this country.

It's not just that. It's also that successful normal people in the country have a lot going on and are already enjoying life. I don't think traveling to DC -- or doing anything special -- on one of the hottest days of the summer is an appealing proposition.
We are doing our normal July 4th BBQ party we've been doing for years. We got a custom "250th" banner, and got some special cigars, scotch, and wine. But otherwise, it won't be that much different than normal.
The weather is supposed to be 100 degrees (in the NYC area) and humid with scattered thunderstorms. That will put a damper on most people's enthusiasm for outdoor events.
Posted by: Elric The Blade at June 29, 2026 02:23 PM (iFTx/)
My family IS travelling in the 100+ degree weather to see DC.
Because this is a literal once in a lifetime event (for me at least, unless I live to be 100). My children will probably see the 300th, if the US survives that long.
This should be a much bigger deal, and that it's not doesn't bode well for there ever being a 300th.

It depends very much on the port, destination, and especially the ship and length of cruise.
The ghetto cruises are almost all the short, cheap cruises on older boats that encourage boozing and partying. They're basically glorified "booze cruises."
Carnival has longer cruises on newer boats that appeal to more affluent travelers and don't attract feral ghetto rats.
That being said, Carnival has positioned itself as a lower-priced "big ship" line, so if you're looking for a true luxury cruise, then Carnival ain't it.

I was a teenager in 1976. I recall that the buildup -- particularly CBS's nightly Bicentennial Minute -- was immense, but the day itself was a standard Independence Day. The cows still had to be fed, and we went to the nearest burg that evening for its fireworks display.
Things will be the same Saturday. We'll participate in the church's parade, and friends probably will invite us to their party, although it's a lot quieter now that the kids are grown.

All true, but Carnival has realized they have a huge problem, because most people won't bother to find out whether their particular cruise is one of "those cruises", and will just avoid the line altogether. That's why they've banned rap.

El Lay has issues but it’s not quite SF shit everywhere on the streets bad.
My understanding is that SF and Oakland have improved quite a bit in the last 2 years or so, particularly on crime. The liberal media was just wailing last week about the loss of jobs for people replacing auto glass. Literally the broken window fallacy.

The 250th Independence Day fireworks will be up to 20 times larger than a normal year, featuring over 1.6 million in pyrotechnics. While the maximum size of individual shells remains capped at 10 inches for safety, organizers will blast off more than 850,000 fireworks across a 40-minute display, compared to the typical 10 to 20,000 shells lasting 17 to 20 minutes.The record-breaking spectacle on the National Mall will be launched from ten different locations, including eight barges on the Potomac River

A bag of groceries and a 2BR condo cost about the same as they do in the U.S.
The glory days of CR being cheap were the '70s. CR used to offer financial inducements (import your car tax free!) to lure American retirees.

They don’t even have AC in hospitals in Europe.
A German on Twitter said they were in a position to complain about that in 2014 when a new hospital was about to be built, and he was told "if they get it, everyone will want it".
No AC in a hospital is scientifically retarded. Bacteria and viruses *love* heat and humidity.

That's odd seeing as how SCOTUS just gave every state the green light to gerrymander congressional maps based on the party in power.
Posted by: Mister Scott (Formerly GWS) at June 29, 2026 03:15 PM (0N4FZ)

They simply recognized that gerrymandering is not covered under the Constitution, race-based gerrymandering is.
The founders long ago said the only practical limit to how much the federal government can tax is whatever the people won't put with.
This is not a "greenlight" for 100% tax.

My understanding from listening to the contractors explain how they did it is that the liner not a traditional pool "liner" like in a personal pool. It's a spray-on liner to protect and waterproof the underlying concrete. It does end up as a poly-epoxy surface that can be cut -- which it was, by vandals.

It was a spray-on liner like you can get for pickup beds. Normally quite durable and cost-effective, but it's not intended to withstand trannies with knives.

They don't care about immigrants or whatever. They simply want them here because you don't. And they don't hate America. They hate that you love America.
They hate you. That's what really ties the room together.

They have deliberately positioned themselves as the budget-friendly option of the yuge cruise lines. And a lot of people want just that. Not everyone has piles of money to spend on travel, or who wants to spend a thousand bucks a person, per day on a higher-end cruise. As I said above, the ghetto cruises are the shorter, dirt-cheap Carnival cruises that cater to partying and drinking.

I don't remember the exact details but someone I knew many years ago took a trip on a personal sailboat; crew was *maybe* three people and there were only six passengers.

Seems like something in this report is wrong.
Maybe the story is about the "delegation" rather than an exhibit, but they definately have an exhibit.
