Friends, in a development that will surprise no one, America's 250th birthday, and the attendant celebrations, have become a bone of contention between Trump backers and Trump haters. Gee, color me SHOCKED! One has to admit that DJT himself bears some of the blame for this, since he has a tendency to place his own magnificence at the center of most public events. Be this as it may, the dignified, patriotic thing for lefties to do would be to get over themselves and celebrate America regardless of who the current president is. Don't count on it!

In other news, the race for California Governor will be a contest between the top two vote getters in tomorrow's primary. And those two candidates could include a Republican, or no Republican, depending on the breaks. Here's hoping that California voters will get a real choice, and that the GOP will have a chance in November.

Finally, kudos to the voters of Colombia, who gave first place to a pro-Trump conservative in the first round of their presidential election. Colombians have been suffering under leftist misrule, and it appears more likely than not that their long ordeal will soon be over. I sure hope so!
