Blam! Pow! Ker-BOOM!
What if you throw a partisan political rally on July 4th, in 107 degree heat, and you require the crowd to stand for hours at a time in a shadeless hell without chairs, umbrellas, bug spray, coolers, backpacks, or even water bottles. And you force them to listen to your demented narcissist babble about the same war you've won over and over and over.... and no one comes?
You'll get what Fox News will call "The Biglyest and Most Successfullest Fourth of July celebration ever!"
Of course.

Do you know how absolutely fucked-up and criminal the "Freedom 250" event is? I shall nimbly elaborate...
In 2016 Congress decided to spend $150 million on America's 250th celebration, calling it "America 250". In 2025 Trump's cronies set up a parallel organization called "Freedom 250" and took $125 million from the actual event.
The Freedom organization set itself up as a non-profit, meaning donations are not public, through the National Park Service and proceeded to use it as a lure for Trump bribery, both domestic and foreign(?).
Here's a ten-minute video with all the deets. Totally worth your time.
No one knows how much was donated or where the money went but you can bet there was a ton of it. And very VERY little of it, judging by what we seen in Washington, was spent on the Freedom event.
Gets ya right here, don't it?

I was initially upset when I heard that Trump had made a billion dollars in cybercoin but also rather amused as it's clear most of that money came from his MAGA cultists.
Ohhh, how I wish I had their names and address. I could sell them SO many bridges.
