• Trump at Mount Rushmore and the SAVE Act | Lawrence News
    Jul 4 2026

    Trump electrified a crowd at Mount Rushmore, declaring communism the greatest threat to American liberty—more dangerous than past wars—and tying it to rising democratic socialist candidates. He pivoted to midterms, warning Republicans risk defeat unless they gut the filibuster and pass the SAVE Act, which mandates citizenship proof for voting—a move he says could secure GOP dominance for a century. But Senate leaders like John Thune push back, doubting the votes exist to kill the filibuster or pass the bill, even as Trump delayed a housing bill until the SAVE Act was signed. Amid fireworks—reinstated by Trump in 2020 after a decade’s break—the event sparked debate: environmentalists and Native tribes raised alarms over bat habitats and cultural disrespect, while attendees cheered capitalism and clung to hope despite growing unease.

  • Kansas Celebrates 250 Years of Justice | Lawrence News
    Jul 4 2026

    Kansas celebrates 250 years since the Declaration of Independence with Chief Justice Eric Rosen reminding us that the real legacy lies in living out its ideals—life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness—through a just, rule-of-law government. He highlights how Kansas’s own Constitution mirrors these principles and praises the unsung heroes: judges, court staff, and lawyers who daily uphold justice. Rosen also notes the symbolic Kansas Judicial Center, built 50 years ago for the bicentennial, as a visual testament to the balance of power among state branches. As we mark July 4th, the call is clear: honor history by actively practicing justice and earning public trust every day.

    Jul 4 2026

    Record heat blanketed the nation on the Fourth of July, forcing cancellations like D.C.’s Independence Day Parade while others adapted—Capitol Hill’s parade trimmed to an hour, bands found new stages, and block parties, concerts, and naturalization ceremonies still lit up the country. In Philly, a time capsule brimming with state treasures was buried for 2076. Meanwhile, the administration rolled out its own “Salute to America” with flyovers and fireworks, as President Trump vowed to press on despite the swelter—and unhealthy air—emphasizing resilience amid the nation’s hottest holiday yet.
