In a now-deleted tweet, the Democratic party claimed that celebrating Independence Day at Mt. Rushmore is "glorifying white supremacy."
Mark Meckler appeared on National Report to respond to this patently ridiculous tweet -- and he didn't hold back. Check it out below!
Anti-Americanism is rampant in our national politics, and our so-called conservative leaders aren't doing anything about it. This Fourth of July, we're fighting back.
We're launching a nationwide campaign -- If You Won't, We Will! #IYW3.
When others kneel, we will stand. When others are silent, we will speak out. When others cower in fear, we will step forward and lead.
We represent the conservative, America-loving, flag-waving, unafraid grassroots of America. We admire George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Linclon, Frederick Douglas and Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. (while still acknowledging their human failings). We love the national anthem, and stand and sing when it is played. To us, Mt. Rushmore is an awe-inspiring piece of American history. And we’re sick and tired of what we’re seeing on our televisions and on the internet every day.
We are tired of the disrespect for our country, its history and its symbols. We are tired of anarchists, thugs and rioters being referred to as “mostly peaceful protesters” by the media. We are tired of apologists for Marxist thuggery and blatant racism from the American left. And we are tired of our opinions being censored by the left. We are at the breaking point.
Fortunately, our Founders gave us a powerful tool to return our nation to its founding principles. An Article V Convention of States can propose constitutional amendments that get us back to values like limited government, fiscal responsibility, and citizen-statesmen.
These amendments can limit the power and jurisdiction of the federal government and return decision-making power to We the People. They can force Congress to stop wasting taxpayer dollars, end the scourge of career politicians, reverse bad Supreme Court decisions, and limit the terms of office for all federal officials.
It's time for liberty-loving Americans to STAND UP. Our most powerful tool is an Article V Convention of States, and it's time we used it.
