Ep. 348 — 1776: A Legacy Worth Celebrating
On July 4, 1776, the Founders declared America's independence from Great Britain, initiating the greatest experiment in liberty in human history. However, with the decline of America’s education system, left-wing narratives like The 1619 Project, and the defamation of our Founding Fathers as nothing more than racist slave owners, the true significance of Independence Day is being forgotten by many Americans. But PragerU is changing that! Watch PragerU’s 4th of July Declaration Ceremony and download instructions to host your own. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In recent European elections, there were few concerns about integrity or contested results, unlike in the U.S. Could the lack of voter ID requirements in America, the replacement of paper ballots with electronic voting, and the shift from an election day to an election month suggest potential manipulation? Dennis explores what these contrasts reveal about election security in America. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
