California cities deployed drones to catch illegal fireworks violators during July 4th weekend - because nothing says "freedom" like aerial surveillance of your backyard BBQ 
Sacramento alone issued 60+ citations with fines up to $10K per firework. One resident got hit with $100K last year. Big Brother really IS watching your bottle rockets!

My Independence Day post was a little dark this year, but not overly so. We can still change course. The question is: how? by what means? See "Justice and Peace or Tyranny and Violence?" https://markstoneman.com/2025/07/04/justice-and-peace-or-tyranny.html #July4th #revolution #reform #USpol

Take a Peek Inside Ozzy Osbourne’s “Working Class Hero” Exhibition
You know, for the ones of us NOT in the UK right now... Take a Peek Inside Ozzy Osbourne’s “Working Class Hero” Exhibition .
1/2 28 years ago, one of the most valuable science missions landed on the Red Planet. NASA Pathfinder proved many new, innovative, and valuable approaches and exploration techniques. IMHO, Pathfinder (and its Sojourner rover) was the most important space robotic mission as it opened the door to innovative solutions to so many other amazing science challenges.

Both Google and Bing seem to be hiding the news about any protest that took place July 4th.
This is why I switched search engines to Qwant, located in France, Europe, but still provides American results.

On the 249th anniversary of the U.S.'s Declaration of Independence from tyrannical monarchy, former US Court of Appeals judge and conservative legal scholar J. Michael Luttig writes "The Self-Evident Truths of Freedom—and of Tyranny: Twenty-seven truths about America, our Democracy and Rule of Law, and our rights, freedoms, and liberties.”

Lol people got offended by my latest YouTube short where I said that I didn't think there was anything to celebrate this 4th of July due to the big beautiful bill being passed yesterday. It has 1 like and 2 dislikes. People are so sensitive these days.
