Summary
America’s 250th birthday in 2026 is being hijacked by Freedom 250, a MAGA-linked group pushing a myth-laden, white Christian nationalist version of history. Once a bipartisan effort, the celebration now leans heavily into political rallies, sidelining marginalized voices and historical truths like slavery. Musicians are pulling out, events feel like rallies, and federal funding is pouring into conservative events — even featuring fictional imagery like Washington praying at Valley Forge. This isn’t history — it’s political theater, rewriting the national story to fit a narrow agenda. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
