While past anniversaries sparked nationwide joy and shared purpose, this year’s mood is fractured, with some skipping the celebrations altogether. The nation’s founding ideals feel distant to many, and without strong civic education, Americans struggle to connect with their government’s purpose. Even official events are split down party lines, reflecting a country more anxious than celebratory. It’s a stark reminder that national milestones can reveal as much about our fractures as they do our unity. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
