Thoughts For July 5, 2025

Now that the Independence Day festivities are over, here are two worthwhile essays from people I respect:

(1) From former Congressman Dennis J. Kucinich

(2) From Judge Andrew P. Napolitano

We're no longer the scrappy little republic which challenged and defeated the greatest power on earth.

We're now the greatest power on earth (or so we think), and we continually go abroad in search of monsters to destroy.

My, how things have changed.
