Built by European stock for the sons and daughters of European stock.
The decline started in the 60s after deciding to babysit people who built nothing and still haven't.
I doubt the USA will survive until 300 if it doesn't recalibrate to it's founding principles.
"The feeling of the nation must be quickened. The conscience of the nation must be roused. The propriety of the nation must be startled. The hypocrisy of the nation must be exposed, and the crimes against God and man must be proclaimed and denounced." Frederick Douglass, 'What to the Slave is the 4th of July?'
“After 250 years US bored of independence, sells it on Polymarket to user @tRumpelstiltskin”
Nine minutes of the BBC trying not to offend Trump. What a joke
The Red Arrows are AWESOME.
There wasn’t any Islamists in 1776 America.
'The American dream is back'? It really isn't! It doesn't matter how much Trump tries to convince everyone it is. He has ruined the 250th birthday of the US for the majority of people. Making it all about himself has to be the most selfish thing he could possibly have done. On another note, no, you are NOT the greatest country on earth. Nor have you ever been. We in the UK and Europe have far more freedoms and rights than the people of the US have ever had!
If the US wishes the rest of the world to give them another chance? Learning to show some humility would certainly be a good place to start.
You paint it as a success and the communists he talks of are Democrats and not foes. Nobody was at his 250 fair and its a full scale money laundering scheme. Yet let's ignore
i want to say he's dumb but I won't because I don't want any controversy 😂
We have pubs in the UK older then America
Trump says beLIEve in him.

FDJT
Come back into the light USA. Vote blue, ride the midterm wave.
1:09 WAHAHAHAHA🤣🤣 There's an oxymoron if I ever saw one🤣🤣 Jets doing a fly over a forgotten icon of "freedom"🤣🤣🤣
Pity the UK has nothing to celebrate except being poorer, more crime and the most corrupt Government in the world currently.
250 у since genocide native Americans?
Just a reminder that the UK now has a higher Global Freedom Index than the US. 😂
Oh, San Marino is the oldest republic in the world (founded in 301 AD). Not the United States, Mr Trump. It's those annoying facts again. Next your be saying you beat Iran, won in Vietnam, won WW2 and WW1 and 1812. The first American president would not be allowed today. Why? Because he started off as a British subject. 😂
Americans really don't see how utterly ludicrous they sound banging on about communism. They're so embarrassing
There were more fireworks than people…
Americans really believe their country is a beacon of civil rights, freedom and a blueprint of perfection. Maybe they need to visit some other countries a bit more often.
Yes, Trump's still dreaming.
where’s the far left ?
The US Mafia State isn’t Independent, it’s an Israeli outpost.
The next big milestone is 50 years….at least Trump will be long gone.
If only the UK had something to celebrate 😒
BBC jews is as trustworthy as fox news
Small crowds and small fireworks.
No mention of the 400 masked neo nazi's matching through washington yesterday or the corruption or 7 people being on life support
A country you can walk into a coffee chain shop with an AK47 preaching to other countries 😂
When they threw out the Brits, they threw out the good with the bad.
I was really hoping that despite hiring a Google executive to run BBC we might see a return to honest news. But no, we're still promoting a political agenda. Now I'll have to cancel my license.
Red white and blue is British not American
You pick the ONE slot this event got a crowd (of MAGA) listening to Trump LIE – and then call that a 'NEWS' – without any mention of Trumps THEFT of the 250 funds – or his suppression of US history …
